About

Judith & Jim’s skills as an Executive Coaching Team have earned them a spot on the Coach Foundation, one of the biggest names in the coaching industry.

Hi, we’re Judith Sherven, PhD and Jim Sniechowski, PhD – best known as Judith & Jim, a husband-and-wife coaching / psychology team and best selling authors.

We’ve discovered the core issue that holds people back from the success they desire, and we call our approach “Overcoming the Fear of Being Fabulous.” It’s based on our evolutionary and enlightening discoveries about Unconscious Loyalties – what we call Allegiances and Forbiddances – that are deeply causal in preventing optimal success in any area of life. That’s why we created our 4-hour Learning & Development program “Being Fabulous In Business” in use by teams and individuals at Atlassian, Credit Karma, Unity Technologies, YouTube, Mosaic, Atoms and others.

Consequently our transformative Mastery-Level Executive Coaching has attracted a loyal referral base and private following.

As executive coaches and leadership consultants we’ve been on retainer at LinkedIn and Credit Karma, are LinkedIn Influencers, and have a wide variety of coaching clients including several CEOs, founders of successful start-ups, as well as major corporations in the United States and internationally. We routinely hear how our unique, in-depth approach quickly and robustly improves our clients’ leadership and relationship strengths and abilities.

Our new program, Being Fabulous in Business, brings together our life’s work and passion for the long-term satisfaction and success of our clients. It makes our core area of expertise accessible to individuals and organizations. It’s dedicated to encouraging, supporting, and developing passionate, prepared leaders. Use the first module for free to learn what’s holding you back from being fabulous in YOUR business.

We’ve authored eight books providing deep-psychologically based insight and guidance that can apply to a variety of executive and leadership topics, all stemming from our original focus on relationships. As guest experts we have appeared on over 3000 television and radio shows including Oprah, The View, 48 Hours, MSNBC, CNN, and Canada AM. We are the hosts of our weekly podcast series “Overcoming The Fear Of Being Fabulous” and the producers of our 12-part, life-changing personal workshop by the same name.

We have been interviewed for and published by hundreds of newspapers and magazines including the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, O, Family Circle, Redbook, Gioia (Italy), Cosmopolitan, Bride’s, Mentor Magazine (Australia), Manner Vogue (Germany), Essence, Glamour, Playboy, London Sunday Times, Woman’s Day, Men’s Health, Best Life, Parents’ Magazine, and we were regular columnists for Today’s Black Woman for several years.

Due to the depth of understanding we bring to the challenges men and women face when they suffer from The Fear of Being Fabulous—in their careers, wealth building, love life—we focus on taking coaching clients and event participants through the deep unconscious blind spots that hold them back, opening the gateway to their freedom and ability to magnify their excellence. Routinely we hear that their experience was truly transformational, and usually includes stories about their new life satisfaction and success!

More than our extensive professional background, we bring profound personal experience and knowledge to our work, having had to overcome The Fear of Being Fabulous ourselves. Married since 1988, we’ve triumphed in our success together.
