You Have One Life - Not Separate Work and Personal Lives.

Executive coaching for attorneys and attorney development for organizations.

Your career is one part of your whole life. Coaching creates space to step back, get perspective, and think intentionally about the choices you’re making, the direction you’re heading, and what you want your life and career to look like.

ALIGNMENT

You have one life, not separate work and personal lives. Your strengths, values, priorities and goals can work together to support the life you want to lead.

CLARITY

Get clear about what you want – and what might be getting in your way.

INTENTIONAL GROWTH

Turn insight into purposeful action and meaningful development.

SUSTAINING CAREERS

Build a career that supports who you are, what matters to you, and where you want to go.

Coaching for
Individuals

For those who want their work and their life to work together.

I work with clients who may be:

  • Trying to make a demanding career fit within the life they want
  • At a transition point
  • Considering a change in their practice, role or career
  • Seeking greater fulfillment without walking away from a career they’ve worked hard to build
  • Feeling pulled in different directions
  • Wanting to grow intentionally, not just take the next expected step

You don’t have to be unhappy or in crisis to benefit from coaching. Sometimes the most useful time to step back is when things are going well enough to ask whether they’re going in the direction you actually want.

Coaching & Development for Organizations

Help your people grow without assuming they have to leave to do it.

Organizations invest heavily in recruiting talented professionals.
Supporting people as their careers evolve can help them remain engaged, develop their capabilities, and see a future within the organization.

DEVELOPMENT
Support professionals at important stages of their careers.

ENGAGEMENT
Create space for people to clarify goals, navigate challenges, and make intentional choices.

RETENTION
Help people envision how they can continue to grow while remaining connected to the organization.

Why Allison?

I’m Allison Plesur, JD, ACC, an employment lawyer and certified executive coach.

For more than 30 years, I’ve worked at the intersection of people and work. I’ve seen firsthand how careers shape our identities, relationships, choices, and lives – and how our identities, relationships, choices, and lives shape our careers.

Today, I bring that experience to coaching individuals and organizations, helping people create greater alignment, clarity, and intentional growth while building careers that can sustain them over time.

What Clients Are Saying

“… with Allison’s skilled questioning I quickly discovered that my needs lay at the intersection of work and life. And that… I could find more fulfillment in each.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with Allison Plesur as a professional coach. Her style and philosophy were a perfect match for my phase of life and work. When we began our sessions I focused on my workplace challenges and opportunities, but with Allison’s skilled questioning I quickly discovered that my needs lay at the intersection of work and life. And that by exploring my challenges in balancing it all, I could find more fulfillment in each. 

As a career woman and mom, I have had to learn new ways to be my best professional self, while still present for my family. Allison helped me explore ways to accomplish this, and to see the present as a phase of my professional life, not the end state. She was incredibly adept at guiding me in my own exploration of self. Not giving me answers, but helping me find my own solutions. 

I left each session feeling good about myself and what I had accomplished, while simultaneously having a clear plan for next steps, manageable action items, and a vision for a path forward. 

I didn’t realize how much I needed Allison until I had her expertise!

I am so grateful for Allison and her role in helping me find the balance I was seeking and finding my purpose again.
I was referred to Allison after making the decision to leave my job of eight years. I was struggling with work/life balance and finding purpose in my career. I was tackling life at home as a new “empty nester” and was feeling lost in all areas of my life.  I went into the coaching experience with an open mind, not sure what to expect. From the first moment I met Allison, her warmth and professionalism made it a comfortable and safe space for me. She walked me through exercises and activities that helped me address my areas of concern. Allison guided me through putting ideas into practice and I would share those in our regular meetings. My sessions with Allison exceeded my expectations! As I started my new job, we would continue to meet to ensure I would keep my personal goals in the forefront. I think everyone would benefit from coaching! I am so grateful for Allison and her role in helping me find the balance I was seeking and finding my purpose again.
