⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love Cicely. She is a no-nonsense person. Cicely will challenge you. She will confirm your strengths and she will provide you resources and tools to develop the areas that she feels that there are opportunities. Her energy, her experiences and just her attitude really connected with me and my interest and wanted to reach out to her to continue to challenge myself and develop my career into hopefully a new journey. The one part that she has brought to light for me is I have been undervaluing myself in my work. Her career experiences, her journeys of what she's done, the different industry sectors that she has served, and again help you think about not only who you are, but what you are and what you want to be.
