Dara worked with my unbelievably scattered mind, my all-over-the-map ideas, and my less than rosy view of what was possible. In the process, she helped me reframe my thinking toward a more positive, realistic, and productive framework. She led me toward clarity, energy, excitement.

After weeks of committing to Dara’s program I was able to take an honest look at who I am and pursue doing exactly what I wanted to do. Dara and I began working together in February of 2024 and by the following September I signed a lease to open my own retail store, The Stand, in Rye, NY.

She cleared the cobwebs, she helped me set goals and tap into what brings me joy. Dara played the greatest role as my coach and as my friend in making this dream come true. I will always be grateful for where she brought me.

Now I begin an incredible new chapter and I don't think I could have arrived here without her. I would tell anyone who is looking for clarity and some guidance and overall happiness that this program is worth its weight in gold. It is a GAME CHANGER.

In this program I started by focusing on my life stuff first - getting my time more organized, understanding my values, areas of my life I want to improve, and the blockers I face in my head every day. In this process, I became more aware of how important it was for me to reconnect with the people I admired and respected that I worked with in a past life. This increase in connectivity led me to 3 exciting and diversified career opportunities in a short period of time! Through the power of the course’s exercises, I was able to effectively navigate, prep and negotiate for all 3 opportunities to fit within my desired life plan.

I still have to pinch myself to believe that I landed my dream job at Pinterest AND the opportunity to consult in areas of business and clients I am most passionate about. I truly could not have manifested this reality without the tremendous support from Dara.

I have already recommended this group to many women who are going through the same thought process I experienced. They feel trapped in their successful careers financially but they are no longer feeling fulfilled, motivated to do their best work, etc.

I first joined Dara’s Career Pivot group when I simply didn't have a clue what I wanted to do next. I felt stuck, uninterested in my prior career, and craving something of my own.

Through her guidance and that amazing group, I gained clarity and confidence, and her support was instrumental in helping me decide to (and feel brave enough to) launch my own business, Project Partner with Ruthie.

I couldn't pass on the opportunity to continue to get advice and mentorship from Dara, so I joined her EntrepreneuHER group, which I can honestly say has been a game changer for my business. Dara, along with the incredible women in the group, have provided encouragement, insight, and a wealth of resources that have propelled me to where I am today.

I’m so grateful for Dara’s leadership and the community she has built. I truly wouldn’t be here without them.

After working with Dara, I started approaching each new meeting and exchange as an opportunity to change the narrative and began leaning into my strengths and talents. Dara helped me move through a professional maze and be intentional about the path I wanted to take. I constantly recommend her services to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed juggling work and motherhood.

Working with Dara has been one of the most important and rewarding parts of starting my small business. In a space that was so unknown after years in corporate, she was the calm to my storm, reassuring me that following my passion was the right decision. What really stood out to me was her genuine commitment—she always made me feel like I was her top priority. She believed in me from day one, and pushed me to protect my worth. Her constant encouragement helped me tackle challenges that felt overwhelming. I’m so grateful for her support and for helping me discover the fearless entrepreneur inside. Thank you, Dara, for being such a magical piece of my next career next life chapter.

As I prepare to start my next chapter, a huge thanks to Dara who played the combined role of coach, therapist, and confidence booster.

I was able to really hone in on what is important to me in my career and figure out where I should focus my next step on.

As a solopreneur, I loved the work, growth, and flexibility—but it could feel lonely navigating it all alone. Joining Dara’s EntrepreneurHer group changed everything. She’s created a community of smart, supportive women who offer invaluable business insights, networking opportunities, and genuine friendships. Her leadership is a game changer in scaling my business and is making the journey inspiring and so much fun!

I came to her at a crossroads in my career post-children, and she helped me clarify my goals, get to the root issues, and, ultimately, make a decision that I felt confident in.  She is intuitive and honest and just a wonderful sounding board, guide, and ally.  I would recommend her coaching services to anyone that needs a supportive and clear-eyed counselor to help them navigate their career at any stage.
