Julie Gleeson and Sherry created the Inside-Out approach to thriving at work. Their combined wisdom and expertise in the fields of stress elimination and career counseling created an approach to career clarity that unveiled the hidden job market, enhanced career resiliency and proved that work can be both deeply satisfying and financially rewarding. Their collaboration formed the Career Wisdom Institute in 2012.
