What Ellie’s Clients Are Saying
“Before starting coaching, I was weighed down by self-doubt and negative self-talk.
I questioned my value as a leader and had lost self-confidence to the point where my self-worth suffered. I felt like I had lost my voice.
As a highly empathetic people-pleaser with little confidence, I felt stuck. Stress kept me up at night, and I had no idea how to break free from the cycle. But working with Ellie changed everything. She helped me quiet the noise of negative self-talk and rediscover my voice. With her guidance and practical tools, I regained my confidence and found a clear path forward.
Investing in business coaching was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Through this work, I’ve become a stronger, more effective leader. More importantly, I now fully recognize my value within our organization. I have clarity on what I bring to the table, and with that focus, I’ve grown as a leader and found greater enjoyment in my work.
Ellie’s insight, tools, and dedication helped me clear the mental clutter and step into the best version of myself. If you’re considering business coaching, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take the leap—it’s worth it.”
—Jill Clifford, President, Freight Plus
“I have known Ellie Lane for over two decades and have seen her impact on individuals in my community and our profession. Her background and ability to help individuals overcome blind spots & obstacles to achieve personal and professional goals is exceptional. Ellie has a special desire to coach women leaders in either personalized or group sessions. I have known women leaders in our organization who have worked with her and found her “one-on-one” coaching helpful in reaching that next level.
It would be worth your time to have a conversation with Ellie to see how she may be able to help your organization’s leaders grow.”
—Matt Sotir, EVP Equitable Advisors, CT
“Ellie has this incredible gift of a true listener, the kind of listener that devotes her entire attention to your questions, or your inner quests. In that regard, she is the perfect coach a woman leader can turn to, because Ellie’s background and expertise are unmatchable and so unique. She masters the art of the Enneagram, and provides you with her profound assessment of your whole personality, which in turn leads to spectacular improvements, either professionally or personally, or both. Should you be a business owner, a corporate rising star, or a woman in transition towards her best future, contact Ellie Lane immediately.
She will help you build your confidence forever!”
—Patricia Burlaud, PhD Executive Coach, Helping Leaders maximize their world of possibilities
“I love personality tests; however, none have been as thorough and focused on growth possibilities as the Enneagram.
Ellie worked with me to brainstorm ideas that I could use for growth in my everyday life. The ideas were thorough enough to define a direction of future growth for me. The session will give me plenty of benefits for the next 6 months and well into the future!”
—Parham Douster, Coach and Engineer
“We engaged Ellie to work with a number of our female advisors in our Athena group here in the New England Branch over the last year, with amazing results. First, she worked in a group format with rave reviews, and then I enlisted her help to do private 1:1 sessions with 5-6 of our female advisors. She coached 2 of our managers and one who made it to Elite Leaders this year in 2024, who would also tell you…
what an impact Ellie had in helping her on her journey.”
—Nick Makriannis, EVP Equitable Advisors, New England
“The Enneagram is a great tool for you to embrace on your journey towards self-development.
But as with all tools, it is worth nothing if you do not know how to leverage it. Here is where Ellie comes into play. Ellie guided me through my Enneagram profile with her usual kindness, authenticity, playfulness, and deep knowledge. Our discussion went far beyond the tool itself. Ellie created a special space for me to make another step towards owning who I am as a whole. With courage and confidence. Beyond the Enneagram, I highly recommend Ellie to accompany you, at your own pace, on your path to being the best version of yourself.”
—Delphine Przenioslo, Change Catalyst for Individuals, Businesses, and Organizations
“Ellie is a consummate professional who is thoughtful and skilled at guiding the discussion so you can come up with your ideas or decisions.
Ellie is my go-to person when I need to talk through a difficult decision or situation, and I appreciate having her as a resource!”
– Susan Davis, Owner, SHD Marketing
Through coaching with Ellie over several years, I looked at who I had been and who I wanted to become. Using the Enneagram assessment, I saw how my highly driven personality and high expectations of myself meant I always carried a lot of pressure to achieve both personally and professionally.
Over time, I became more connected to who I wanted to be, not just what I wanted to do, and continue to see the growth I want to see.
Julie Bates, Assistant VP, State Street Bank
I originally hired Ellie to coach my sales team, and later, I joined another one of her programs focused on boundaries.
I found that traditional business coaches didn’t focus on boundaries, yet it was a key area for growth for both my team and me. Doing personal work meant I could better lead my team from the front as well as lead both myself and my team with more energy and focus
Michele Morris, RN, Owner Nurses with a Mission
“As I have taken on additional leadership roles and responsibilities, Ellie has helped me prioritize what is important, look at situations differently, but most importantly, find my voice in situations where I didn’t feel I was being heard and stand up for what I thought was right.
She has helped raise my bar and has helped hold both myself and my team accountable for what we say we will do.”
—Allei Holway, Regional VP Equitable Advisors, New England
“It was a pleasure working with Ellie.
She taught me tools that I utilize daily to improve my time management skills, control my mindset, and keep track of my goals. I looked forward to meeting with her and felt our time together greatly benefited my growth over the last year. As a result of her coaching, I have a stronger sense of confidence in my professional and personal life.”
