      <image:title>Steph Stern - Maybe you’ve also been rewarded for those patterns. The perfectionism and ability to execute that got you promoted are now the same things keeping you up at night, making it hard to delegate, or eroding your confidence. I’m here to help. I work with clients to tackle a variety of challenges:  Building confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome Coping with challenging relationships at work and home Overcoming the inner critic People-pleasing and resentment  Stepping into a new leadership role Leading with more presence Work-life balance...and The big question of what to do with your life.</image:title>
