Success Stories
From Stress & Loathing to Loving What She Does
Department Chair, Assistant Dean
-
We identified the core values she felt like she was being forced to choose between and redefined her version of success: Supporting her faculty holistically - as professionals and people, fostering student success - in the near and long term future, collaborating on research that excited and intrigued her, and creating a just and viable future for the students, faculty, and university.
-
Using coaching frameworks, she worked to lead errant faculty into a team culture of collaboration and success-orientation by refining expectations for them and herself, communicating with them clearly and confidently, and simplifying the focus for accountability to only the essential. She created emotional and mental relief for herself and removed previous adversarial points of contention, which resulted in increased morale across her staff and previously unseen levels of quality contribution from these faculty.
From Near Fisticuffs to Strategic Growth & Trust
Global CEO & Regional COO
-
One decision at a time, this leadership team used the coaching framework and learned to communicate honestly, forthrightly, and safely with each other and their teams. They implemented the intentional curiosity and listening practices we covered and removed the previous status quo of information gaps and toxic access exclusivity which had created he-said-she-said traps of misunderstandings. Once the air was clear a new mutual respect and trust became the basis of their decision making and information sharing process. This allowed them to rapidly ramp up new resources and accelerate their growth in a new market.
-
As these leaders had “come up” together, it was a well rehearsed pattern of how they saw themselves and each other - in the work, in their roles, in their industries, and in the future. These old narratives were preventing them from seeing what was possible - for themselves, for each other, and for the company. Through the coaching we did, they were able to honor the past, even the hardships and mistakes, and allow the wisdom from those experiences to inform - but not determine - their future plans and next steps.
From Stuck in the Status Quo to Pioneering Innovation
Institute Director
-
The charge she was given to modernize and create translational research was at odds with the cultural status-quo reality, without the buy in and partnership she wanted and needed. The coaching we did gave her the framework she needed to clarify the vision and big goals which were mission-critical. Then, we worked together to create her communication plan that turned miscommunication and misalignments into relationship-deepening opportunities.
-
Internal self awareness of her emotional responses helped her grow her reputation from “reactive and uncooperative” to that of a “supportive, inclusive, and genuine” boss and colleague. By learning to use the intensity of the emotion to inform but not drive the conversation she feels more secure, authentic, and confident in challenging conversations - even with especially triggering people. This has helped her deepen her personal and professional brand as a true innovator and leader, build networks of collaborators, and develop her team in their own paths toward success.
- Meka
“[Coaching] is probably one of the best things that ever happened for me. Truly. The coaching really helped me to see things as they needed to be seen and not how I wanted to see them. We focused a lot of the coaching for work but it was so beneficial in my personal life. I was able to shift what I was learning in the workplace into what I was doing for myself and my personal life.”
- Wendy
“Our coaching has helped me find my purpose again, be more in alignment with my morals to my work and be a better mom… I’m more myself than I have been in years. Thank you!”
Hi! I’m Tarah Keech
Founder and Coach, The “What’s Next?” Accelerator
I feel your pain. This is why I’ve spent the last 10+ years helping clients just like you figure out what makes a meaningful life and the courage to pursue it unapologetically.
I guide vision-driven, inspired professionals to step out of burnout, fear, and uncertainty and into authentic and purpose-fueled work.
I’m a life coach for leaders and a burnout recovery expert with a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from UC Denver and a resume of Fortune 500 consulting over the past 13 years.
Through my programs and events, I love to support professionals like you with new tools and perspectives you need to navigate leading while serving so that you can coach well, lead well, and thrive - personally and professionally.
Whatever it is that you want and envision for your future is possible and you are 100% capable. Let’s get rid of the noise and confusion standing between you and that next aligned, inspired step.
A few of my recent clients…
Packages & Pricing
What’s My Investment?
How much is burnout, stuck-ness and “good enough” costing you? How many potential ideas and inspirations aren’t creating impact because they’re lost in the sea of busy-ness? How many of your days are spent half-fulfilled because you don’t know what to do? How many opportunities are you passing up? Can you even articulate what you want? A lack of clarity may already be costing you a great deal.
It’s hard to know when enough is enough, especially when you’ve been making do for so long. You’ve been white-knuckling, grinning and bearing it, faking it until you make it, and generally getting the job done.
You’re good at what you do and you got where you are because you can do hard things well. But now that you’re mid-career, you look around and where you’re at doesn’t quite feel right anymore.
There’s a pattern in how you have been conditioned to work: overcommitted, overworked, and burnt out. When you’ve spent the entirety of your career climbing the ladder, unlocking the next level, doing more with less -
It makes it hard to know who you are.
It makes it especially hard to know what you want.
Because what used to feel right is not as rewarding or fun, you put yourself under even greater pressure to work even harder.
“Is this really it?”
“Is this all there is?”
Cue more anxiety and being simultaneously more needy and more exhausted by other people - even the people you care about. All of which snowballs to crash your confidence and zero out your energy and resources.
Are you ready for better?
My goal for this work together is to get you over the hump of uncertainty and send you on your way with the tools and well honed skills you need to implement that plan with clarity and confidence.

What Can I Expect?
Here’s What Past Clients Have to Say
What’s Your Plan?
I know you want to feel purposeful. You want to make a difference and you care about your work.
You also know we get this one life - and you’re ready to live yours fully.
In order to live free from overwhelm, hurrying, worrying, and all the noise that burnout brings, you need clarity about what you really want and the best path forward.
The problem is it’s hard to consider more of what you want when obligation and busy-ness is the norm, which makes you feel stuck.

That’s why I’ve created this intentional, accelerated approach for you to have the dedicated time and space to look at where you are, learn from where you’ve been, and intentionally focus on wanting a future you love, that you’re proud to live.
So, join me in this coaching intensive. Over the coming 8 weeks, you will learn the skills and get coached to reach clarity on what’s next for you. You’ll tap into your desires and develop the skills you need so you can prevent burnout in the future and lead a life and career you love.
