time for a life preserver?
You’re a successful, type-A professional who’s always prided yourself on working hard and doing well, but recently you've been feeling like you’re paddling upstream Monday through Friday. What gives?
Are you tired of facing the Sunday Scaries every. single. week?
Is a situation or person at work consistently stressing you out or making you miserable, despite your best efforts to improve your circumstances?
Are you over your current job but unsure how to land a more inspiring role without derailing your professional or personal life?
Do you want to thrive at work without sacrificing the rest of your life?
I’m Courtney, founder of Happy High Achiever
Happy High Achiever was born from my own experiences and those of countless other go-getters I’ve helped to land more fulfilling roles, reclaim their confidence, improve difficult team dynamics, or prove their merit as leaders, in order to truly thrive at work.
During the last 10+ years as a Fortune 200 AVP, Big Three management consultant, and nonprofit change-maker, I’ve worked for organizations big and small, across a diversity of sectors, with great cultures and toxic environments, for fantastic leaders and mediocre ones, leading teams and as an independent contributor, and partnering with all sorts of people, ranging from dream colleagues to the stuff of workplace horror stories. I’ve been the A player, the quick promote, and — yes — the stressed-out, burnt-out recipient of the poor performance review. I truly understand the challenges you’re facing, because I’ve been there.
Over the past several years, I’ve found fulfillment and joy from helping truly impressive professionals facing the biggest obstacles of their careers to retake control of their work lives and become HAPPY high achievers. If we’re a fit, I’d love to help you too.

testimonials
“Courtney’s approach helped me focus my search and my time — she laid out the tactics needed to effectively target not only companies and opportunities, but also individuals who could help get my resume into the right hands within the organization. Second, and most importantly, Courtney helped build my confidence. Courtney was always empathetic and encouraging but also highly strategic and tactical. I always looked forward to our weekly connections to provide clarity in my next steps and support to stay resilient during the process.”
“Courtney has become my go-to advisor for career-related challenges and decisions. In our conversations, she brought a fresh perspective that resonated with me and my vision for my future, and she understood what tactical support I needed in order to execute against that vision. Working with her has changed how I think about my career trajectory and how I approach new opportunities. ”
“Courtney has a unique ability to listen to what you say and distill it, helping you connect the dots and shed light on your own professional needs. She takes the time to really get to know each client, which is what makes her approach so effective — she recognized and verbalized what was important to me and where I needed to develop even before I did! I can’t say enough about how instrumental Courtney was, and I am perpetually grateful for her assistance both during the search and as I settled into my new job.”
“Courtney was instrumental both during my job search and while negotiating offers. Her tailored guidance around choosing the role that best played to my strengths, understanding the history of the job + team I’d join, and maintaining a long-term vision for the skills + career I’m building helped me to ask the right questions, feel confident in my choice, and to hit the ground running.”
