Shaun Smithson – Managing Partner – Lightwell Advisors
As an accomplished global executive with over 25 years of leadership experience across the hospitality, consumer goods, and startup sectors, I have had the privilege of working with numerous executive coaches throughout my career. However, few have made as profound an impact as Julieta Timane during a critical inflection point – my relocation to Singapore and subsequent career transition in 2018.
I had the fortune of being introduced to Julieta through The Impact Group, where she served as a Senior International Career & Transition Coach supporting expatriate professionals across the Asia-Pacific region. With over two decades of career coaching expertise and certifications from esteemed organizations like the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), Julieta brought a rare blend of strategic perspective and personalized support that perfectly complemented my transitional needs.

Claire de Leeuw – Educator & Watercolour Illustrator
I am truly grateful to you Julieta, for your guidance and support throughout your time as my career coach. I never thought I could have achieved what I have done in the past year! From as early on as our first session I was on a new trajectory – one, towards exploring my potential and realising my goals. I am so proud to be working as a teaching assistant now, doing something I love, while also pursuing my passion and talent for watercolour painting. I now have a website portfolio with an online shop – Watercolour with Love – https://watercolourwithlove.nl/. I see possibility and opportunity going forward in my career as an artist, where before I couldn’t see a starting point! Thank you so much Julieta!! Claire de Leeuw (2023/2024)
Ritva Maija Schmitt – UX Designer
Julieta has been my career coach supporting me in a phase of transition between two quite opposing careers. She has been a great source of wisdom and support when I was doubting my qualifications and has led me through the jungle of job searches in a tremendously structured, patient and goal-oriented way. I really enjoyed all the simple tasks I had to go through which made the daunting process more manageable and the 1 on 1 sessions were incredibly helpful, especially, when it came to interview training. Her feedback was always kind yet pivotal in getting me to where I am today. I couldn’t be more grateful to Julieta. She really helped me to kickstart my new career and more than two years onward I find myself looking back at what I learned from her in order to apply for more senior positions in my current field. Thank you so much, Julieta! (2024)

“A turning point in my life. Working with Julieta and using her methodology, tools and expertise I learnt to define my own goals and to decide what are the most important things for me. I did realize what makes me feel happy and what else can I do to improve as a person, partner, relative and employee. I will be everlastingly grateful.” (2023)
Anastasia B. – Human Resources Professional
I have attended the Career Development Workshop back in August and it was a life changer. This experience triggered a deep personal reflection, gave me clarity and motivation to act. As a result I restarted regular exercises and meditation that has given me energy and confidence to pursue a degree with an objective to start my own business in a couple of years. I am grateful to Julieta for her care that gave me a new meaning in life. Regards, Anastasia B. (2018)

Sapna Sukesh Kumar – Director Global Relocation and Outplacement – IMPACT Group LLC
Julieta currently works as a senior career and integration coach with IMPACT group, where I continue to be her manager since 2018. Julieta is an absolute delight to work with. She is professional and follows the IMPACT coaching values to the ”t”. She has a deep sense and understanding of the relocation industry and is able to intuitively sense the pulse of her clients. She is undoubtedly a phenomenal career coach and exhibits fantastic capabilities when handling a diverse population of clients -who could be emerging, mid management or senior executives from a variety of professional backgrounds. I would highly recommend Julieta in her role as an integration, career, business or transition coach. She will be a valuable asset to any coaching organization. It is an absolute pleasure to walk along side Julieta and see her grow in her space. (2020)
