BECOME THE BADDEST BITCH IN THE ROOM

I feel like many coaches ask a throwaway question at the end of a session when there’s not time to answer: “how’s your personal life.”   Sophia Chang truly gets that for modern women, work and personal must harmonize, and perhaps smear together. Discussions with her about sex and love are as frank and fun as the convos about career and ambition. She’d been with me during my journey of existential career growth, coupled with ending a turbulent longterm relationship and my celibate year of wound licking.

“Many coaches share one-size-fits-all advice that, practically speaking, few people can successfully follow. But Sophia understands that our professional challenges often stem from deeply personal ways of thinking and being that come with strengths and weaknesses in equal measure. She listens with empathy and openness to deliver insights that suit our individual, ever-changing situations and needs. She knows that advice that may have worked before doesn't cut it when I'm juggling any number of x-factors that limit my own coping skills -- such as a ramped up travel schedule, family illness or personal loss -- and she has given strong counsel across a variety of challenging situations.”

“I was struggling in my early days of running a company alongside a prominent artist. Sophia could immediately see the issue from both the artist’s and my (business leadership) point of view. With her razor sharp listening skills, Sophia identified the roadblocks and gave me a full and clear analysis of what was at the heart of the problem. Even more importantly, she gave me specific tools in how to overcome them. There is no one else I know who could support me in that way - with both the elegance and precision.“

“Sophia is a superstar coach and fearless leader and motivator. She has helped guide me through many stages of my professional life - first, with coaching me through negotiating a high level executive job offer. She walked me through all the steps of how to ask for what I needed and to never settle for less. She also helped me to grow my business as a start-up agency by learning how to interact with a variety of personalities in the music industry as she has done for over three decades. Sophia always helped bring out the best in me and reminded me to always remember my worth and to stand up for myself. She is inspiring to watch and be around and I'm grateful to have been mentored by her.”

“Sophia helped me navigate the political landscape at a major label as the only woman in my department in a way that helped me achieve upward mobility that would have taken me many additional years to scale without her integral advice. She helped me learn how to communicate effectively, rally the team behind my vision, and most importantly, how to negotiate - a skill not developed enough among women but one that is crucial for us to bridge the gender pay gap. Sophia is an incredibly intelligent, confident and empathetic woman with a breadth of life and work experience who not only inspires with her fearless mode of being but also provides invaluable lessons on the industry and the world. She provides a unique micro perspective on the industry being a woman of color in a field dominated by white men, while also having a broad macro perspective on industry trends and strategy because of her experience in management, label work, and through growing her own company and platforms. She is a fierce warrior and a dutiful, loving mother who raised not only two impressive young adults but an entire community around her. Anyone who has Sophia Chang in their corner should count their lucky stars, as she is an immovable force to be reckoned with.”

“I highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking to grow as a transformative leader. She has an incredible ability to connect with individuals on a personal level and guide them towards becoming more effective and empathetic leaders. She has provided me with invaluable insights and strategies for navigating complex situations which have helped me to grow both personally and professionally. Her approach is both thoughtful and impactful, and her guidance has had a lasting effect on my leadership style.”
