I help ambitious people achieve success that feels as good as it looks.
Hi, I’m Janine, an expert in sustainable success & healthy high performance—
I know what it’s like to want more—more success, more impact, more meaning—but to feel like something is missing.
I left an abusive home at 17, worked 50 hours a week to put myself through university, and, over twenty-five years, built a global career at institutions like Harvard and Pearson, even leading from the C-Suite while raising three children. I climbed the way I was taught, but something still felt off.
Five years ago, I hit a breaking point. Overworked and on the verge of burnout, when my mom was killed in a car accident, everything came crashing down. I was so fried I couldn’t eat, sleep, or get out of bed. I was forced to pause and confront how I lived and worked.
That’s when I realized: success isn’t just about what you achieve—it’s about who you become along the way. It isn’t a destination; it’s a practice.
Today, I help ambitious people like you find success that feels as good as it looks—healthy, meaningful and lasting.
My mission is simple: to share the tools to achieve and sustain healthy, meaningful success with as many people as possible.
Having learned from my long and rocky journey, I aim to help you get ‘there’ faster and with fewer scars.
Like you, my life has been a wild ride! I’m a fifty-something proud mother of three who has:
Lived and worked in three countries and led business across the globe.
Supported the growth and development of thousands of individuals from early career roles to executive levels.
Led from the C-Suite 2x
Raised $30M for transformational education initiatives in the US
Guided the future of learning and work agenda at Pearson and advised executives on brand and reputation matters.
Spoken about the future of learning and work at top institutions in the US and UK.
Founded ExponentialChangemakers, a global nonprofit propelling women from early to mid-career.
Received a Massachusetts Congressional Award for Service in Education
Still, my biggest win is the transformation my clients and others experience when we work together—and the fact that, despite life’s ups and downs, I’m still standing strong as the same warm, down-to-earth person I’ve always been. Thanks for being here with me.
