The weight on my shoulders began to lift.
Not to sound cliche — but I felt a renewed sense of purpose and confidence. All because, for the first time in my life, I became self-aware and realized that I’m in the driver’s seat of my life.
As I continued on this transformative path, the changes I experienced were so profound that I knew in my heart that I had discovered my true calling. Coaching became not just a passion but a purpose — a way for me to support others in their own journeys of self-discovery and growth.
Now, as a seasoned executive coach, I am dedicated to providing the same guidance, support, and transformative experiences that I received. I’ve honed my skills and acquired a wealth of knowledge, combining my professional expertise with my personal journey to help corporate women like you thrive in their careers.
Together, we’ll embark on a transformative journey…
You’ll discover your inner strengths, overcome the barriers holding you back, and unleash your full potential.
I’ll be your unwavering ally, guiding you through the challenges, celebrating your victories, and helping you uncover the extraordinary leader within.
If you’re ready to embrace the journey of self-discovery, growth, and professional fulfillment, then I invite you to take that leap of faith in YOU. Together, we’ll unlock your full potential, redefine your leadership journey, and create a future where you thrive.
Welcome to Rachel Pritz Executive Coaching, where transformation begins and extraordinary achievements become your reality.
All these things didn't make me happy like I was told they would.
I was coming home from work exhausted and overwhelmed. Thinking of what to make for dinner every night is a special kind of hell — and my only coping mechanism to quiet the overwhelm was opening a bottle of wine. I’d have a glass while cooking dinner and then another glass while we ate. Then another glass or two after the kids were in bed. It felt normal since all of my friends and colleagues were doing this too. But, I felt groggy, ashamed, and lifeless.
I felt like a zombie walking around in real life. Needless, to say, not the life craved. And I felt like a victim to my circumstance. “This is just what it’s like to be a high-achieving, working mom” was my belief system.
I was driving to work one day thinking, “What if I just got into a minor car accident? One that would put me in the hospital, but not do permanent damage. Maybe I could finally get someone to take care of me.” Yikes.
When my 5-year-old self was playing with her dolls, she never had a scenario where this was the storyline — where Barbie was a stressed-out, wine-drinking mom of 2, that snapped at the people she loved the most.
I knew something had to drastically change. I confided in a mentor and she suggested a life coach she’d worked with. At this point, I had no idea life coaching was even a real job. I thought you went to therapy or you did it alone.
As I did more research, coaching seemed like exactly what I needed. I hadn’t experienced any major traumas and I didn’t feel like digging into the past was what I needed. So I reached out to the recommendation and the rest is history. She slowly helped me go from barely surviving to thriving.
I learned to thrive in my executive role and got promoted.
I was on a rocket ship and the sky was the limit. I felt so empowered that I realized being confined behind 4 walls of one organization just wasn’t enough for me.
So, I decided to get certified as a coach with the one and only Martha Beck and I started planning my future as a coach and entrepreneur. On March 1st, 2019, I left my corporate job and followed my passion to help others unleash their full potential. Many people told me it was a brave decision. Normally I would agree. But when you are doing the thing that hasn’t just nudged you but hit you with a sledgehammer over and over, you just know you’ll make it work.
My Commitment.
It all starts with understanding YOU.
The core of our methodology and framework is based on bringing self-awareness to your habits and understanding the why behind your behavior. I know the countless “do it my way for success” programs just don’t work long-term. That’s why I help you address what’s really causing you stress, overwhelm, and disempowerment — then I incorporate new frameworks that support your empowered lifestyle.
We get curious.
We take a holistic approach to your career. So many issues we have at work don’t actually start at work — we really just need to heal.
It’s time to address these issues so you can come out stronger. This is how you become the person you’ve always dreamed of.
You’re a whole person.
It may sound silly, but how often do you remember that you’re not just someone trying to achieve X goal? It’s easy to get caught up in that mentality. (And one of the reasons we have trouble giving ourselves compassion.) That’s why we focus on understanding you as a whole person — your triggers, Enneagram type, why you do the things you want to change, and so much more.
No judgment.
Everything is a suggestion — because this is your career and your life. I’ll never tell you what to do. Rather, we’ll explore your options and how you feel about them. The goal is to get you confident and comfortable in making decisions that are best for you.
