Team Development
I worked with Ja Young for 18 months near the end of my tenure as Executive Director of Voice of Witness. Her embodied wisdom, deep presence, and perceptive guidance set her apart from the very beginning. In our first conversation alone, she helped me access insights about myself and my leadership that I had never fully seen before. Those discoveries became the foundation for a rich and transformative coaching journey.
– Mimi Lok, Former Executive Director of Voice of Witness
Ja Young is magic earth-side. She has the capacity to create a space of liberation for those who sit on the margins and whisper to them their potential for play and joy; that they have internal capacity to imagine and reach for possibility. And she does this is an accessible, humorous, and still very cerebral way.
– Kim Wallace Carlson, Associate Principal, Communications Director, Populous
Ja Young has helped me focus on what others need from me and guided me through deep work that has helped me trust myself, learn to do my best, and form habits that make my job possible and sustainable. I am so honored and fortunate to have Ja Young as a thought partner and friend, and I can’t overstate how much her invaluable coaching means to me.
