EVERYONE *FEELS* IT, BUT NO ONE really *TALKS* ABOUT IT.
Why are they earning more than me? How has my high-key toxic boss not been fired yet? What else do I need to be doing to finally get that promotion?
I know what it’s like to feel undervalued, confused, and tense in a job that doesn’t appreciate your worth.
You’re not the only one feeling stuck, and I’ll happily be the first to tell you that it’s okay to want more — more recognition, more compensation, more certainty of your career trajectory.
Wanting more is the first step toward actually achieving more. We both know you’re capable of it, you just need a little support with claiming it.

Struggling With Work-Life Balance
Hi, I'm Steffani!
Aka your new work bestie — but not the kind you have typical, surface-level, water-cooler chats with — the kind you can confide in with your workplace woes.
And you can do it without crossing your fingers that it won’t get back to the “big boss,” because I’m on YOUR side.
Armed by almost 2 decades of corporate HR experience, I bring a blend of professional expertise and heartfelt mentorship, combining the best practices from HR with proven leadership principles so you can feel confident and courageous to show up as your authentic self.
(Along with my textbook Enneagram 3 energy — The Achiever. So fitting, right?)

i realized i was missing something
I was only making an impact on people within the walls of one company - at a time.
I’d won CEO, Client Success, and HR awards, and even helped a company bring in their highest revenue generating quarter based on review of their processes and recommendations provided (optimizations nerd, here!).
Which is great and all, buuuut, I wanted to use my passion for mentoring in a way that helps and impacts more people.
Enter Work Bestie: your guide for navigating those workplace challenges and achieving your careers goals through empathetic, intuitive, and personalized mentorship.

passionate

And the intangible things I bring to the meeting?
That would be: my psychology degree from UCLA, 17 years of experience as a human resources leader, SPHR and SHRM-SCP certifications (translation: seriously legit HR professional), my CEO award, Client Success award, HR award, the confidence of knowing I created pay parity between men and women (at a TECH company, no less!), Board of Directors experience, and a whole lotta empathy, energy, and positivity — just to name a few.
