Hi, I'm Jamie
I’m Jamie Kellar—an academic leader, pharmacist, coach, and writer who believes that the most meaningful growth happens in the in-between spaces of our lives. After more than twenty years working in healthcare and higher education, I’ve learned that leadership isn’t a title. It’s a way of being.
I’ve led teams, built programs, navigated career pivots, rebuilt after personal upheaval, and raised a blended family. Through each chapter, one truth has stayed constant: the moments “in between” are where we discover who we truly are.
My work now lives in two complementary arms:
In Between — my reflective, thought-leadership and writing platform for people craving meaning, depth, and connection during transitions.
RISE — my coaching pathway for individuals ready to rebuild their next chapter with clarity, courage, and purpose.
My Purpose
To empower individuals to lead with clarity, courage, and deep purpose — in every role they hold.
My Vision
A world where leadership is not a title, but a way of living — bold, intentional, and transformational.
My coaching is grounded in a blend of reflection, research, and real human experience.
My approach integrates:
Research-informed frameworks
Drawing from behavioural science, leadership psychology, resilience theory, and design thinking, I bring structure, clarity, and evidence to your growth.
Human-centred partnership
I’m not here to prescribe. I’m here to walk beside you — asking better questions, challenging old narratives, and helping you build aligned, courageous action.
Reflective inquiry
We slow down first. You learn to listen to your inner voice, reconnect with your values, and understand what your transition is asking of you.
My Clients Â
I support high-achieving, purpose-driven individuals who are navigating a season of change and want to come out the other side more aligned, intentional, and whole.
My clients include:
- Leaders who want to grow without burning out
- Professionals reimagining their careers or identities
- Parents and caregivers balancing ambition and responsibility
- Individuals rebuilding after divorce, loss, or major life disruption
- People who have “done everything right” on paper but want deeper alignment and purpose
They are thoughtful, ambitious, emotionally intelligent, and ready to do the inner work. They come to me because they want clarity. They stay because they want courage, confidence, and a coaching partnership that feels both evidence-based and deeply human.
