I saw things I hadn't noticed.

It was my first professional coaching experience and Misa had a great approach - she guided me through the subjects we discussed which I initially didn't even notice impacting my career. She equipped me not only with understanding of where some of the issues come from, but also with tools to address them and overcome own limitations. I will be happy to work with Misa again in the future whenever I will need help in my professional growth.

A profound impact.
From the very first session, Coach Jana made a profound impact on my journey. She listened intently to the chaos of my ambitions and skillfully helped me navigate through the overwhelming clutter to a place of clarity and focus. With her guidance, we established a structured approach to my tasks, laying out a foundation that transformed my approach to goal setting. Jana's ability to direct me towards asking the right questions of myself, coupled with her knack for prioritizing, was pivotal. Her insights were not only enlightening but also deeply actionable, ensuring that every goal we set was both measurable and achievable.

Impact not only on work life.

Discussing things that seem obvious and easy to solve with someone in the industry who you sit down with and who knows the context of what you're doing is something that I find incredibly fun and moving. There is power in the detail. And the fact that you can take the time to look at yourself through a different perspective is not only priceless, but it has a real impact on your life. Not just your work life.

Able to make clear decisions.
I absolutely loved my experience in the mentoring program! My mentor, Petra, and I clicked right from the start. We even discovered we share a favorite dessert and coffee label. Thanks to Petra’s guidance and support, I was able to make a clear decision about my career path. I truly recommend this program to anyone seeking an improvement in their career. It’s been an incredible journey!

Many new perspectives.

Through my mentorship program with Monique I gained many new perspectives for my day-to-day work. Coming from a different professional background, her outside perspective on our business was particular helpful and enlightening. A great experience, professional and personal.

Clear vision and newly defined path.

6 months of an intensive thinking about my career, while having someone to support and challenge me. That's how I would describe my mentoring experience. Even though it was tough sometimes to find the energy and time, my mentor was always there to help me push through. I have a clear vision now and I am already walking on my newly defined path.

It exceeded my expectations.

This program is a jewel. It has absolutely overcome my expectations! Not only I was matched with the mentor that understood very well, what I need and what might interest me on my career path, but I also have a clear plan of what to do to achieve my goal.

Me and my mentor clicked together.

It's important to click with your mentor. If you do (and I was lucky enough to) it can be an interesting developmental experience. I learned a lot about myself in a very non-violent way, and started to look at things a little more from a distance, in context. I believe that I understand my role and the roles of my colleagues better and this experience will be a daily help in my work.

I have clarity about my future.

The mentoring was an excellent experience for me. Just in six months, I have so much clarity about what I want to do in the future and how I want to work on my career. Thanks to my mentor Tina, I learned many things about social media, presentation skills, and strengths that helped me achieve my initial goals and much more. I would recommend mentoring to everyone. It is a life-changing experience.

Vision clarified and goals achieved.

Taking part of the mentorship program at Femme Palette helped me in so many ways. Before I didn’t have a clear vision of how I want to achieve my goals and I felt almost paralysed with fear of the future.  Everything changed when I met my mentor Veronika. I presented her with my smart goal and ever since she tried her best to provide me with materials to study, explained complex concepts of programming and reviewed the code I wrote. She is such an amazing person and I couldn’t get a better mentor. <3

Would recommend in a heartbeat.

I am really deeply grateful for Iva Buschmann's kindness and all rounded personality. Her ability to ask the right questions, listen objectively, understand and provide clarity was very impressive. I would recommend Iva in a heartbeat, both as a mentor and coach, for anyone wishing to move forward in their career and also have the courage to start a business. "The ability to ask the right questions is more than half the battle of finding the answer". Thank you Iva for enlightening my journey and Femme Palette for making it possible!

She is possessing the right energy that is very inspirational. Choosing this program is the right thing for everybody who wants to work on and improve their career!

I look forward to every meeting.

My mentor Jana is very understanding, she helps me visualising my goals and supports me. Also, as some of my priorities have changed, we managed to change my goals, so that they are more valuable for me at the moment. I look forward to every meeting and I'm so grateful for this opportunity.

I explored my strengths and gained confidence.

I am glad that I joined the Femme Palette mentoring program. It pushed me to work harder on achieving my goals, set a vision, explore my strengths, and gain confidence. My mentor went through similar challenges as me, so we could support each other along the way. I believe our sessions were inspiring for both of us. I recommend the mentoring program to everyone, who is willing to go the extra mile, step out of the comfort zone and do something for themselves.

Realized important milestones and values.

I am glad to have participated in Femme Palette mentoring program. The FP team matched me with a great mentor Matěj, which I would like to say thank you for his great guidance, valuable inputs and straight-to-the-point mentoring style. He helped me to realized important milestones and values which helped me to set out goals and vision that really matter to me. Just after one session I have realized I need to work on something different than my original goal and thus I did not stuck to the plan and commit myself to open my mind to different approach. Thanks to the program I have changed my attitude towards work and also I have clarity for how I want to live and I do trust in every step on my journey.

Inspired after every session.

I am really appreciative of Simona and what we have been able to discuss together. Her genuine but at the same time direct approach has forced me to think about things I would not have thought of myself otherwise. I was able to get a different point of view without losing my own perspective. And after each session I was left with a lot of "food for thought" and usually found myself thinking about the previously discussed topics multiple days after. To conclude, so far I find this program very benefical and am glad I made the decision to participate!
