I was processing the struggle of the work-life balance as I was working 50-hour weeks, with a 75-minute commute, and three young children at home. Working with Megan, I was able to gain better clarity on the vision I have for myself, identify the kind of leader that I need to be in order to flourish holistically, and seek opportunities that would better satisfy work-life integration. Megan was incredibly spot on with her depth of understanding of the problem and worked patiently with me to tease out areas where I had neglected myself in my desire to satisfy so many roles and so many people. Following our time together, I felt I had a partner, a friend-coach to challenge my status quo and push me to finally confront my self-made patterns of exhaustion and general dissatisfaction. I’ve made some huge shifts in how I approach work; I can love a job without letting it take over my life

Megan has a thoughtful demeanor that makes it so easy to open up and solve the world’s problems (but mostly just your own!) She coaches you through your own obstacles by asking deep, valid questions, that allow you to unleash a new world of opportunity – all through the power of slowing down and really digging in.

Megan Akatu was not only knowledgeable, but genuinely invested in my progress and success during our coaching engagement. She took the time to understand my unique strengths, aspirations, and areas for improvement. Through insightful discussions and practical exercises, Megan provided me with a clear roadmap to advance both my professional and personal goals. I feel equipped to make tangible change in ways both large and small. She is also relatable and fun to work with, and makes the entire process enjoyable.
– Ann Hastings, Principal, Hastings Strategic Communications
In looking at succession planning for our department, Megan was able to work with one of my team members to help her move beyond her current skill set in ways that have been truly transformative. This team member’s confidence has grown, she has transitioned to demonstrating leadership and strategic/critical thinking skills and applying them. In working with Megan, our team member has grown substantially and is contributing in more profound ways.
This type of coaching is not something I personally could have executed in such a direct and impactful way. We are now moving other team members through the coaching process with Megan.

Megan is so easy to talk to and very understanding. Trust the process! She helped me understand how I view my own strengths and weaknesses, as well as my unique gifts of creativity and design. Understanding leads to improved confidence, which improves emotional intelligence, and helps build authentic relationships with others.
