“ I started coaching sessions with Jim Broshar in October 2021 after being unemployed for about
11 months. Struggling with self-worth, I felt personal coaching could help.”
While I was part of a job search group, it felt like I had exhausted that avenue. Jim helped me think outside the box and reframe my perspective on rejection; I learned it wasn’t always my fault. This shift led to a renewed sense of self-esteem, and after working with Jim, I applied for the right job and landed the position the following month.
One of the most transformative areas I focused on with Jim was my physical wellbeing. Being unemployed took a toll on my self-esteem, and I found myself spending too much time on the couch. But with Jim’s guidance, I discovered new ways to ignite my motivation and reconnect with nature. This journey has not only boosted my fitness but also reignited my self-esteem. I’m reclaiming my life, one step at a time!
I continued my coaching sessions with Jim on various topics, including apartment hunting, family issues, empty nester syndrome, exercise motivation, setting boundaries at work, and finding new hobbies. Jim truly listens and guides me in the right direction, as any good coach should. I am confident he can do the same for you.”

He sees the big picture with remarkable clarity, predicting potential issues or opportunities long before they arise and preparing the team to navigate them successfully.
Jim is a rare leader who combines vision, empathy, and practicality in a way that makes a lasting impact on both people and projects.”
