Executive Coach for Women
Andie is an ICF-credentialed executive coach specializing in coaching women directors, vice presidents, senior executives, and emerging C-suite leaders on executive presence, career advancement, and navigating toxic workplace dynamics.
If you’re a woman director or executive who’s stopped being able to answer the question “what do I actually want from my career?” — you’re in the right place. Below is everything you need to know before booking a free 30-minute consultation.
What does an executive coach for women do?
An executive coach for women helps accomplished female leaders close the gap between what they’ve achieved and what they actually want next — developing executive presence, navigating senior-level politics, and building the strategic visibility that leads to promotion. Unlike general leadership training, it’s one-on-one, tailored to the specific dynamics women face at the director-and-above level.
In practice, that means:
Building executive presence — how you’re perceived in the room, not just what you say in it
Navigating senior-level dynamics — the unspoken rules of who gets promoted, credited, and heard
Managing imposter syndrome — separating the internal chatter from the actual evidence of your track record
Career strategy — positioning yourself for VP, SVP, C-suite, or board roles, or planning a deliberate pivot
Handling difficult bosses and toxic dynamics — scripts and strategies for protecting your career while setting real boundaries
Andie brings 20+ years inside Fortune 500 companies — Disney, Coca-Cola, NBCUniversal — to this work, which means the coaching is grounded in how corporate power actually moves, not generic leadership theory.
How is this different from a career coach or therapist?
Executive coaching is forward-looking and role-specific: it focuses on your performance, presence, and positioning inside your current organization, not on general career exploration or emotional processing. A career coach typically helps with job searches and transitions between companies. A therapist addresses mental health and past experiences. An executive coach works with you inside your current leadership role, in real time, on the specific challenges standing between you and your next level.
| Executive Coach | Career Coach | Therapist | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Focus | Performance & presence in your current role | Job search, resumes, transitions | Mental health, past experiences |
| Timeframe | Ongoing, tied to real workplace situations | Typically short-term, transition-focused | Can be long-term, clinically oriented |
| Best for | Women already in leadership who want to go further | Women changing companies or industries | Processing trauma, anxiety, depression |
If you’re currently in a director or executive role and the question is “how do I get heard, promoted, or out from under a toxic boss without blowing up my career” — that’s executive coaching. If the question is “should I leave this company entirely,” that’s more career-coach territory. If you’re dealing with clinical anxiety or depression, please work with a licensed therapist — Andie will tell you this directly in a first call if it’s a better fit.
What results can a woman director or VP expect?
Clients typically see a shift in mindset and confidence within the first session, and measurable career movement — promotions, better boundaries, resolved conflict with difficult bosses — within 3 to 6 months of ongoing work. Results compound: the skills built in coaching (executive presence, strategic communication, boundary-setting) keep paying off for the rest of the client’s career, not just for the immediate problem that brought her in.
“I finally was able to talk to my boss about what I wanted and needed… and when the next VP job opened, I was the first one in line to get promoted.” — TS, VP Investment, CPG Company
“Andie’s experience… was invaluable to help me get to a better place at work, finally move away from my toxic boss, and prioritize play with my kids.” — VG, Senior Director Brand Management, Beverage Company
How much does it cost, and how long does it take?
Executive coaching engagements typically run 3–6 months, with bi-weekly 50-minute sessions, though the timeline is tailored to your specific goals. Programs start at $250/month, with custom ongoing partnerships available for longer-term work. If you’d rather test the waters first, single sessions start at $195.

Who is Andie Slodowicz, and what’s her background?
Andie Slodowicz is an ICF-certified executive coach (ACC) with postgraduate certificates from Brown University in Leadership and Executive Coaching, Team Coaching, and a Designing Your Life certification. She’s fully bilingual and has coached executives across industries and cultures.
Before coaching, Andie spent 20+ years as the go-to “pitch whisperer” inside Fortune 500 companies — Disney, Coca-Cola, and NBCUniversal among them — known for walking into any boardroom and making it work. She built a reputation for delivering for everyone else, until she realized she’d lost control of her own career story. Her own executive coach changed that. Now she does the same work with women directors and executives who are exceptional at delivering results but stuck on what they actually want next.
Is this coaching right for me?
Executive coaching with Andie is built around the specific situations that stall women’s careers at the director-and-above level. Here’s how it applies to four of the most common ones:
If you’re dealing with a toxic boss: Coaching gives you scripts and strategies for managing the relationship, setting real boundaries, and protecting your career trajectory — without either blowing up the relationship or absorbing all the damage yourself.
If you’re dealing with imposter syndrome: Coaching helps you name the pattern, separate the internal chatter from the actual evidence of your track record, and build the kind of executive presence that makes the chatter quieter over time — not through affirmations, but through concrete practice in real workplace situations.
If you’re stalled on a promotion: Coaching identifies exactly what’s standing between you and the next level — visibility, positioning, a specific skill gap, or a conversation you’ve been avoiding — and builds a strategy to close it, rather than waiting for someone else to notice your work.
If you’re burned out from over-delivering: Coaching helps you figure out where you’re over-functioning, why, and how to set boundaries that don’t cost you your reputation — so you stop proving yourself and start strategically leading.
Not sure which of these applies, or dealing with something else entirely? That’s exactly what the free consultation is for.
