About Us

A unique and magical partnership….meet Kristina Cleary and Donna Star With a combined 50 years of corporate experience, we met while taking a course during our coaching journey. It was an instant connection and our combined commitment to helping women become exceptional leaders was a natural catalyst for us to develop a program and work together.

Velocity – a program designed to help women like you accelerate your personal and professional journeys was born. Our desire was to create a program unlike any program we had been offered by our previous places of employment or education facilities; we were looking to provide a program that combined specific learning modules with practical coaching and real-life scenarios.

We now coach groups, individuals and deliver corporate programs to women – regardless of what industry or role they are in. 

We look forward to helping you accelerate your goals!
