Meet Janet Phipps,

MBA, ACC

I am a leadership and mindset coach who believes clarity creates momentum. Through NorthStar Mindset Coaching™ I help leaders, teams, and organizations rise above the noise to realign with what truly matters: purpose, integrity, and growth from within.

I don’t just help people lead. I help them return to themselves.

Why I Do This Work

I refuse to accept the status quo. My work is rooted in truth, transformation, and bold alignment. I see the cracks in the system, the whispers of misalignment, and I am ready to name them.

My ability to cut through the noise with clarity comes from years of partnering with leaders and organizations to elevate performance, and from an ongoing pursuit of advanced credentials that sharpen my insight. I have honed a unique blend of courage and intuition that allows me to disrupt strategically and lead responsibly. I show up to make waves, to invite reflection, and to lead with integrity.

I am here to help others find their True North, the place where clarity meets courage.

How I Work

My work does not just add value. It reshapes trajectories. I catalyze growth by challenging complacency, inviting introspection, and creating space for truth to emerge.

When I step into a room, the energy shifts. Leaders reconnect, teams align, and cultures evolve into spaces of trust and empowerment.

I turn stagnation into momentum and noise into clarity.

What I Stand For

I want to be known as a catalyst for meaningful transformation, a trusted partner who helps others see beneath the surface and step into their highest potential. My work is guided by courage, intuition, and an unwavering belief that presence changes everything.

Clarity fuels growth. Presence creates connection. Purpose sustains it.
