Executive coaching for women

Build the career you’ve been dreaming about.

We help women leaders find clarity, claim their voice, and step confidently into their next role, without losing themselves along the way.

About us

Two coaches, one belief: your ambition is worth taking seriously.

I Dream of Labor started over coffee, when two longtime colleagues realized they’d spent years quietly mentoring the women around them. Now we do it on purpose, with structure, honesty, and plenty of warmth.

Marlene

Co-founder · Leadership & Strategy

Marlene spent 18 years in operations leadership before becoming a coach. She specializes in helping first-time executives navigate the leap into senior roles, from building a team to holding their own in the boardroom.

Ann

Co-founder · Career Transitions & Negotiation

Ann is a former HR director who has sat on both sides of the hiring table. She coaches women through career pivots, promotions, and salary negotiations, and is known for making hard conversations feel a lot less scary.
