We had the pleasure of partnering with Stacey Olson for a training session on work-life balance. Her professionalism was evident throughout the entire process. She shared vulnerable personal experiences that resonated deeply with our team, making the training both relatable and impactful. Her presentation was well thought out, interactive and inspiring. It was truly wonderful to collaborate with Stacey, I would highly recommend her services.
Gina Henneberg
Chief Information Officer
Working with Stacey has been life-changing. I have learned a lot about myself and have become so much clearer in what I want out of life and what I need to do to show up how I want every day. The intention and mindfulness I've cultivated through her Balanced Leader Program have made me more self-aware and better able to navigate moments of overwhelm when they arise. I am coming to work more energized and focused, and am leaving work more peaceful and present at the end of the day. By aligning my decisions and behaviors with my values, I am able to find more grace, patience, bravery, and a greater sense of fulfillment at work, at home, and personally.
Stacey is truly a master of her craft and shows up with unparalleled kindness and authenticity. She is approachable, thought-provoking, and insightful. If you feel like there's a better version of your best life out there and you're ready to dig deep and put in the work, I highly recommend connecting with Stacey and the wonderful community she's built.
Rodney
Chief Executive Officer
Stacey was the utmost professional from the very first time we made contact. She took the time to understand our needs, expectations, and key focus areas. She delivered a very engaging, informative, and professional session. Stacey even provided us with additional time to meet virtually for a follow-up session to provide supporting information and answer any questions the Team Leaders had. She provided our Team Leaders with the foundation to support their ability to create a better work/life balance.

I had the pleasure of working with Stacey in the corporate world at FCC, where she was a stellar portfolio and project manager. She was viewed as a high-potential employee and was leading the Enterprise Portfolio Management Office when she left FCC to follow her passion, which is bringing out the best in others. As a seasoned coach and consultant, I am proud to be a mentor of Stacey’s. She is intelligent, perceptive, warm and deeply committed to helping clients with transformational change. I highly recommend her!
Jenel Michel
IT Project Management Office Lead
I highly recommend Stacey's The Balanced Leader program. I worked with her for 6 months at a time when my career demands were ramping up faster than I could keep up!
Working with Stacey has allowed me to learn how to prioritize my most important work, build boundaries around my workday and since working with her I’ve felt less overwhelmed and more productive in my days. I came into the program needing to find a way to not have work “suck the life out of me”, and now I can say I have the energy in the evening to deal with my family life as well.
Investing in personal growth is always a good idea and the content/advice/coaching Stacey gave during this time will last with me for the duration of my career and spill over into my life.
Julie Chabot-Thoring
Manager
Stacey showed me that balance is possible and I have to be intentional about choosing it. It sounds simple but reframing it this way has been powerful for me. Now I am making choices that bring more in line with living my values every day. You really have to want to change to be able to internalize and practice what Stacey teaches, yet I believe the results are so worth the effort.
Jackie Rorquist
Manager
I highly recommend Stacey and her program. Her approach is kind, caring and practical, and the program builds lifelong habits and skills. Stacey is someone who clearly cares about the success of others and understands how demanding the corporate world can be and what is possible.
I’ve shifted my mindset in a very short period of time from a place of frustration and fear to happiness, confidence and courage. This has not only been a benefit to me, but the people around me. It has helped me tremendously to achieve results when it comes to improving difficult areas at work and in my personal life. Of all the professional development courses I have done, this was definitely one of the best!
Brad Strom
Tech & Security Exec
Leveraging both her perceptive interpersonal skills and her strong leadership abilities, Stacey was able to partner with members of my leadership team and constructively identify and address foundational divisional issues within a relatively short engagement. I found Stacey to be a beacon of positive outlook and a convicting example of what success can look like when one pursues the important instead of just the urgent.
Tyler Koyl
Senior Leader
Stacey's coaching sessions are a complete departure from what I expected. Instead of the typical "What is wrong with you?" or "What can I help you fix?" approach I have seen with by managers and mentors in the past, these sessions immediately began to focus on "What are you good at?" and "What do you value?". This laid the foundation for identifying what I want from meaningful career, and also life in general.
Isabelle
Federal Government
The workload is consistently high and we are always expected to do more with less. When faced with the pandemic and additional challenges that led me to experience high anxiety for the first time, I searched for a program to reduce my stress and anxiety, improve my leadership skills and performance, and contribute to my best for work and for my family.
I enrolled in Stacey’s Balanced Leader program. The content itself led to numerous insights for me, which I could unpack further during the coaching sessions which was very valuable. This enabled me to be more focused, effective, and strategic while reducing employee overwhelm and high stress, bringing out the best in the team and fostering high engagement—all of this I have achieved, and more!
