Balancing Professionals and Mulberry Tree Consulting Announce Success with SanityTM Coaching Services

Raleigh/Durham, NC (November 19, 2008) —Balancing Professionals and Mulberry Tree Consulting are pleased to announce the Success with SanityTM Group Coaching Services for professionals who are re-entering the workforce after spending time at home raising kids.  The coaching services, delivered by Maggie Ellis Chotas and Betsy Polk Joseph, founders of Mulberry Tree Consulting, are designed to help professionals develop a vision, a plan, and a boost of confidence to serve as a foundation for their workforce re-entry.  Some packages also include the administration of the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), allowing professionals to incorporate their preferences into their long-term career vision.

“One of the common struggles we see with on-ramping professionals is figuring out exactly what they want to do,” said Kella Hatcher, founding partner at Balancing Professionals.  “While they still have the same great skills, many seek new industries or different scheduling strategies that will support both their professional and their personal lives.  We are delighted that they can now access a sounding board of peers and professional coaches through the Success with Sanity coaching services.”
