About Me
Hello, I'm Marisol Plaza, Founder & Transformation Coach
I've spent over 20 years at the intersection of people, process, and change — and what I've learned is that transformation is never really about the technology or the org chart. It's about the humans navigating it.
My career has taken me through senior leadership roles within Finance and Order to Cash, driving business transformation within mostly the pharmaceutical industry. I guided teams through major ERP implementations, acquisitions, divestitures, and organizational redesigns — the kind of change that's exciting and unsettling all at once.
That experience shapes everything I bring to my coaching and consulting work today. I hold a Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification, a Certified Digital Transformation Professional designation from UC Berkeley Executive Education, with a Prosci Certified Change Practitioner credential. I'm also a certified Life and Success Coach through Jay Shetty Certification School and am working toward my Associate Certified Coach credential through the International Coaching Federation.
All of that is just the "how." The "why" is simple: I love helping people and organizations move through change with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Our Mission
At My Change Journey, my mission is to reframe how people experience change, not as discomfort to endure, but as an opportunity to learn, grow, and move forward with purpose. I partner with you throughout your change journey, aligning our approach with your goals to support meaningful, lasting progress. With a focus on clarity and actionable strategies, I partner with you in identifying the most optimal path for you, empowering you to embrace change as a catalyst for personal or organizational growth. Ultimately, I aim to help my clients find solutions and strategies to embrace change with creativity, compassion, and curiosity. Whether it’s trying to find ways to adjust and stay relevant in the world of AI, finding ways to improve communication across teams, or developing strategies to effectively turn ideas into action, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
How I can help you:
I've spent years leading through the kind of change that doesn't come with a clear answer — navigating high-stakes decisions, building alignment where it didn't exist, and helping others find steady footing in uncertain terrain. And I know what it's like on the personal side too, facing a moment where life asks you to reimagine who you are and what comes next. That dual experience is what shapes how I show up for every client. At My Change Journey, I blend structured change management frameworks and digital transformation expertise with a coaching approach that's as focused on the person as it is on the plan — whether that's an organization working through AI adoption or a major strategic shift, a leader translating vision into meaningful action, or an individual navigating a personal transition and ready to move forward with intention. However you arrive here, I'll help you move through it with clarity, confidence, and purpose — and you won't have to figure it out alone.
