I am incredibly grateful to have discovered We Are the Women (WAtW) programs. When I first encountered their ads on Instagram, I was navigating a challenging time both personally and professionally. I felt overwhelmed by my career and the demands of new motherhood, grappling with prolonged periods of burnout that left me feeling unhappy.

After months of contemplation, I decided to take the leap and enroll in the Awaken program, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! In a world filled with discussions about burnout and wellness, WAtW offered me practical tools to truly address these challenges. They provided a comprehensive skill set that empowered me to regulate my nervous system, establish healthy boundaries, and balance my roles as a marketing executive, mother, wife, and friend in ways I never thought possible.

Now, I find myself in the same job but without the relentless hours and burnout—no more late nights, weekends, or working through vacations. I’ve learned to say “No” and stand by it, and it’s genuinely transformed my happiness. Whenever I slip back into old habits, the support from the coaches, the incredible community of women, and the engaging curriculum helps me regain my footing and stay grounded. I've continued on in the Rise and Rise Mastery programs and keep learning and growing in the best way possible.

Thank you, We Are the Women, for guiding me through this journey of growth and self-discovery!

When I joined Awaken in 2024, I had reached rock bottom. I was so deep into burnout, I had constant physical pain from the stress and non-stop clenching in anxiety, I was not enjoying time with my family, I was constantly overwhelmed, I was not even in “fight or flight” anymore, I had found a permanent home in “freeze.” I didn’t recognize myself, and I couldn’t even identify what I needed to get out of it. I had become so disconnected from myself and focused on everyone elses’ needs, I had forgotten I had any needs at all.
When I found the Program on a google-search, the videos touched the depths of my soul – corners of it that have not been touched in years, and once I joined, the Program itself did not disappoint. I benefitted so much from Awaken, subsequently joining Rise was a no-brainer because I wanted to continue to learn and grow.
When I initially joined, I was a shell of a person in constant panic/survival mode teetering on the edge of self-destruction, simply getting through each day. Just existing, but not purposefully or with joy. Today, I am present, I am centered, I have come home to myself. I am no longer sitting the back seat of the car of my life- I have taken the wheel and I am looking out the windows, and I have Julie and the incredible coaches to thank for that. They, along with the amazing community of women in the Program, have my deepest of heartfelt gratitude.

I have been a member of WATW since March 2024. I joined Rise in July 2024 and am now starting Lead in April 2025. I am a completely different person today than I was just a year ago and I owe that to the curriculum, coaches, and community provided by WATW. In the past year I've felt empowered to make choices in alignment with priorities that truly matter such as my health, my family/friends, and my passion for mentoring others. I significantly reduced how much I work and my stress levels and feel more fulfilled than ever. I also had a career best year of performance, earning an award trip and a promotion among other highlights. I strongly recommend WATW to anyone ready to commit to a better way of living!

I had a period of challenge at work in 2022 that was health compromising, although some work stress had been structurally reduced, I still had me to deal with. In spring 2023 I found the program in an online search, typing in "burnout." It was an amazing blessing. After participating in Awaken, Rise, and now Rise Mastery, I have learned to show myself and others more compassion (less beating up of myself as another reviewer mentioned). After listening in on a recent session on relationships, I noticed how drastically relationships -especially with my partner - improved and I enjoyed a moment of reflective gratitude for this program. My spiritual life awakened and I have more direct communication with the divine and am able to pursue more creativity and enjoyment at work. Admittedly, as things improve I still have setbacks by applying the newfound energy and reduction in burnout to working "harder" to accomplish more than I could before at work. Thankfully, I recently joined in on a call with others on the team and they helped me to call me back and reframe that I was on the upward spiral. I do not foresee going back to where I was in 2022-23 and look forward to living life with increasing abundance.

When I joined “We Are the Women” (WAtW) I was finding it difficult to show-up for myself, my family and my job. I was having trouble getting out of bed each morning and had considered taking a leave of absence from work, but I didn’t know how I would use that time to get better? I was overwhelmed and exhausted from self-neglect and self-criticism.

WAtW was exactly the help that I needed! The online modules were doable despite my lack of free time. Each week I looked forward to the next module and group call. I learned so many tools and started using them consistently. Now I am so much less stressed!! I am present with my family and I feel connected to myself in a way that I never did before. I am confident in my worth and optimistic about my future. Life still presents tough situations but I can handle those situations with my new tools in a graceful way.

I have noticed that I have so much more free time now that I am not using all my time to beat myself up. I now have external support systems in place because I learned how to implement them. I am pursuing hobbies and dreaming again. WAtW has been a life-changing experience for me and I am so grateful!!!!

My time and healing through WATW has been life-changing! I have so appreciated and benefitted from the teachings and inspirations of Julie and the coaches, and also especially within such a sweet container of women at various stages of reclamation and remembering, in their journeys. Initially I was a bit reluctant because of the investment financially, but it has paid off many dividends. Highly recommend, including listening to the little "yes" inside that leads you to connecting more with yourself - even if part of you is uncertain or doubtful or afraid!

I joined Awaken at a period of time when I was approaching burnout at work. I wanted to figure out how to stay in my career and still enjoy life. My coach during Awaken was just what I needed. I made many positive changes to restore equilibrium to my life. I found the group calls to be very complementary to healing from burnout. I joined Rise to further my leadership skills. The information has been extremely useful. The one on one coaching and the group coaching have been very impactful. Many of the changes have helped me be a better partner and mother.

WATW has drastically changed my life. I had gone through Awaken then Rise and now on my second year of Rise and I am so grateful for this journey. I can't even remember the woman I was before this program. I answered an Instagram ad and thought oh my, I've come to this but I thank the universe for this. I jumped in and I can never look back. None of my circumstances changed, but I managed to redirect my life without quitting my job, leaving my marriage or hiding in a mountain meditating lol! All of these are okay to do but I really wanted to see what could I control. And I did and continue to learn about myself. The teachings and the support to nudge me back to myself. A plethora of ways on figuring out how to get back to yourself. No one telling you what to do, but giving you the tools to discover you! Thank you so much to Julie and the WATW team for changing my life and I pay it forward on offering my most loving and compassionate self to this world. The world needs it! You deserve it!

Julie and her team will change your life in ways that you didn't even know were possible. I am beyond grateful for all that I have learned and the ways that I have gotten to know myself and love myself so deeply. There really aren't words sufficient for what Julie's work will do in your life. My life is unrecognizable and honestly, I can't imagine where I would be right now if I didn't watch that master class a few years ago. I have a life now that I feel that I have created, that feels good for me. I am not only a better leader at work, but also a better partner, mother and friend. I have completed all 3 of her programs. Make the investment in yourself. You will not regret this. It will feel like the best thing you could have ever done for yourself when you look back. You are worth it!

I started Julie's leadership program, Awaken, a year ago. I was burnt out from working 50-60 hours a week in corporate accounting, changing companies because I thought a different one would have better work life balance (spoiler alert - it didnt!) I was leading multiple teams at work and very in demand all day, then came home to two toddlers often not getting a break until they went to bed. My physical and mental health was declining and I was ready to leave my job or marriage (or both) without a plan. Awaken immediately provided me support and for the first time, I felt understood and seen in a way traditional coaches and counselors did not provide. At the end of Awaken, I'd like to say I had it all figured out, but life had another plans as other challenges came up. I decided I wanted to stay in the container to feel supported while I continued my journey so I joined Rise which is the 2nd program. A year later, I still don't have it all figured out but I think that is the lesson because we never will and that is why Awaken is a lifetime membership so you can keep utilizing the tools and continue to learn and grow. Even though I am working through what I truly want in life, I now have a better plan and the confidenceto carry it out. I'm heading to the in-person Rise Retreat in a couple weeks and so excited to meet this community that has been so supportive. I would recommend this leadership program for anyone who is a high achiever, overwhelmed and burnt out who needs support.

I found WATW when I was in total burnout and didn't know where to turn. I was part skeptical and part hopeful but I was 100% desperate and in serious need of help so I took a chance. It was the best decision I ever made. A unique blend of education, coaching and community, WATW is robust program like nothing I've ever experienced. Julie and her team of coaches are the real deal. They are strong leaders who practice what they preach while still owning their humanness AND they are also some of the most loving, supportive, authentic and intentional women I know. Through Awaken and Rise, I learned many new skills and tools and was introduced to many new resources and modalities that have had a profound impact on my life. Through WATW I have also found a community of like-hearted women that have truly become genuine friends and pillars of support. As I continue to navigate this time of transition in my life, I have chosen to continue with Rise Mastery in order to remain in this container of love and support and to further strengthen and integrate my learnings. I am so grateful to Julie for what she has created and for the healing work that she and her team are doing in this world.

Julie’s program literally changed my life. I was in severe burnout as a highly anxious over-achiever. While I was succeeding on the outside, I was in crisis on the inside.

What initially drew me to the program was Julie’s history on Wall Street. I felt like she really understood the challenges I was facing as a corporate executive in a way that other programs did not.

Julie also has a team of incredible coaches, each with their own unique gifts, who are instrumental in making the program so successful.

Through Awaken and Rise, I learned a new way. I now work differently, prioritizing my whole life, not just my work life. I was spending 85% of my waking hours at work/thinking about work pre-Awaken. Now it’s closer to 50% and I am thriving in all areas of my life and have met an incredible community of women along the way.

This may sound cliché, but Julie and the We are the Women community have changed my life in more ways than I could have ever imagined. I found Julie when I was in severe burnout, knowing there had to be a better way, but I just couldn’t find it. I’ve discovered a wonderful community of like-minded women who are uplifting and supportive, and I re-found myself and my joy that had been buried under years of overwork and people-pleasing. I thought my exhaustion and burnout were due to my job, but in reality, it was the way I was operating. Once I gained that self-awareness (thanks to this program), I was able to take full control and create the life I want to live. This program has not only gotten me out of the hamster wheel of merely existing, but it has also made me a better person, wife, mother, and leader. The deep-rooted learnings you’ll gain about yourself throughout this journey are priceless. The best investment I ever made was in myself by joining Julie, her amazing coaches, and the We are the Women community.

Julie's teaches about so much great stuff and some amazing techniques to help combat overload/burnout/stress. I liked the first program Awaken so much and knew I wanted to continue down the journey to really change myself for the better and my future so I am now in her 2nd program Rise. I obviously saw the value and the expertise of the coaches and wanted to continue with their work to create a better future self!

The WATW program changed my relationship with work and how I relate to my peers in profound ways. Both the content and the support in the program are amazing. And you will be surrounded by a team of wise and loving coaches who hold the lantern as you grow. When I started I was burned out, defeated, scared, and hurt. After a year I am a very different person and loving my life!! Julie has curated a program that brings many different philosophies together in ways that are uniquely curated for those of us who are over functioning high achievers. I am truly grateful!!

I'm still early in my Rise journey (only about 5 months in) but it's been a life-changing experience. It's hard to describe the value of this work without sounding over the top. I don't endorse much, but this is worth it.

I joined the Awaken program in February 2023 after working in high intensity jobs for many years. I was burned out and knew something needed to change. Joining Awaken was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I completed the Awaken program and continued on with other programs that are part of We Are the Women. A year later I have truly changed and as a result my life has changed in ways I could not have imagined. Julie has created a truly transformative program and built an amazing team. I cannot recommend this program highly enough.

This is a long overdue review. I joined Awaken in 2021, which completely woke me up to a new reality of living. After Awaken, I continued Rise, a graduate program that taught me how to live differently and authentically. When I was stuck in my life, I reviewed various leadership programs, and this program had the most holistic way of helping you make long-lasting changes.

When I look back on my journey, this was the best decision I have made for myself, and proud of the courage I had to take a step forward. It was scary, and I am one of the most skeptical people! Before I started, I judged whether this program was legitimate or not. If you hesitate to join this program, you can go for it and believe it later. I haven't seen any women regret joining.

The woman I was before this program was burned out from work and life, had no boundaries, couldn't stand up for myself, was not present with my family, and lived on a never-ending hamster wheel. Before this program, I was living my life partially. I was numbing myself, settling, and telling myself this was good enough. When deep inside, I was not happy.
The woman I am now is a powerful, successful, BADASS woman with everything on the outside (dream job, promotion, more wealth, etc.) but is so full and content inside that it makes every day count, and relish each hour. Thank you, Julie & Team, for building and teaching this program. It is such a gift.

In Awaken, you will gain awareness of yourself and start identifying patterns that are not serving you. And look at all root causes that contribute to how you lead in your work or how you do things in your life. The program is beyond just helping you become a better leader in your job; it enables you to become a better partner, mom, friend, human, etc.

It will feel like an investment, but I can guarantee you will get more out of it that I can't put a price on based on the value I received. If you are ready to say YES, I am so happy for you, and I want to tell you you did hit the jackpot! Congratulations!

I have been able to release my trauma, fears and guilt because of saying yes to this program. I am a giver, that is why I became a nurse of 17 yrs. I love to nurture, go the extra mile, make sure everyone is taken care of, make things special, I stop everything to help someone....except myself. I gave until I couldn't give anymore. I took everyone's hurt and fear home with me. I didn't know how to release it or let their fear be theirs and to just listen. I couldn't do it anymore, I was breaking.
On my transmission call I had never felt so held, heard, loved and yet given so much hope, trust and confidence that there was a different way to live.
I invested in myself more than I even knew how. and... I would do it all over again. I can't think of a better way for this world to be lead than through love. Julie teaches with such deep love and gratitude. It is laughter, praise, tears, healing, empowerment, rising above, support, guidance, learning to love yourself and doing it a different way. This is how to lead and if we can all learn this, we can change the world. Please accept this invitation to say yes to yourself. It really is a gift to the whole family. I have been able to gift so much of this to my children that even their friends are opening up for guidance. I am more present, loving, patient and have learned ways to get myself out of a funk, release anger and to help others without carrying their heaviness. I feel I am equipped to handle what comes my way. I am so thankful.

I remember my initial call in March of 2022. I, too, was skeptical of taking the next step to join the program, but it has hands down been the best investment I've ever made. I look back at myself a year ago and think, how many hours of therapy did I sit through but not get to the root cause? How many trips did I take to numb and distract? How much time did I spend scrolling through social media or binge-watching shows? Here's the truth. What I thought was my ceiling a year ago is now my floor. This program is serious next level. You can't hide. You are in a group with women working right next to you. You have terrific coaches, kick-butt material, and the support you need. Pause and ask yourself, have you had enough? Don't join the program if you still have room to be miserable. But if you finally have decided enough is enough, then the decision is a no-brainer.
