“I've had the honor and privilege of knowing Jan first professionally and then personally. From our first meeting I knew she was someone that genuinely invested herself in the betterment of others. Her aim is never to give rigid parameters in which success or growth should be built, but instead working congruently with what already lies within all the while helping you uncover what you didn't recognize was already within. 

Jan takes a personal approach by first asking the questions about ourselves that we're not always comfortable answering. She does this without judgement or accusation, in a safe and comforting manner. The more you're able to honestly open up about yourself the more she can assist in tailoring her suggestions and recommendations. She comes from a place of compassion, understanding, and often relative personal experience. Jan is one of those enigmas that spent years working in corporate environments, while never losing her individuality. She's also donated countless years of her time towards community efforts and spiritual support. With her unique foundation of leadership roles in such distinctly different areas, she's able to find pertinent connections while developing a sound strategy and path forward. 

Jan has mentored me for over 5 years during periods of particularly challenging personal and professional growth. During this time she's offered considerate relevant feedback while delivering thoughtful guidance. Jan helps to remind you that progress is dynamic and not unidirectional. I often find myself still leaning on advice she provided to me years back, and she continues to build on those early lessons. Whether you're seeking clarity, advancement, or counsel, Jan is well-equipped to guide you along the way.”

“Jan is charismatic, insightful and intelligent.  Her life and work experiences have created an informed foundation from which she may guide others.  She has a way of looking at things that provides so much clarity of purpose.  She is very good at getting down to what’s important and asking thought provoking questions that help a person develop their own strategy for achievement.  With gentleness, she even tackles difficult questions which are essential for a person’s growth.  She has helped me face challenges with reassurance and encouragement.  I have been blessed to receive the mentorship of Jan Dunnagan for the past few years.  I highly recommend her new business, “UpliftHer Coaching” to help you achieve your true potential.  It will be more than you even imagined for yourself”

“Jan is first and foremost a wonderful human being. She is a curious, empathetic listener and truly has a heart for helping. A natural coach, Jan is skilled at helping get to the heart of the issue, encouraging, supporting, guiding while promoting accountability to identify and achieve goals. Even after a short conversation you're likely to go away feeling uplifted and empowered.  Highly recommended!”

“Jan offers a warm and caring environment to share openly. Her genuine curiosity and gentle coaching challenged my thinking and allowed me to become more self-aware both personally and professionally. Jan is a great listener and knowing her has been life-changing for me.”
