Frequently Asked Questions
What is HR for HR coaching?
HR for HR coaching is dedicated coaching support for Human Resources professionals, the people who support everyone else but rarely have support themselves. At HR@Heart Consulting, founder Julie Turney provides a confidential space where HR practitioners can process workplace challenges, recover from burnout, and build sustainable, fulfilling careers. Sessions are virtual, so we work with HR professionals worldwide.
How do I know if I'm experiencing HR burnout?
Common signs of HR burnout include emotional exhaustion after handling employee issues, dreading work you used to love, compassion fatigue, feeling isolated because you can't discuss your work with colleagues, and carrying the weight of layoffs, investigations, or workplace trauma alone. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone; it's one of the most common reasons HR professionals reach out to us. A free 30-minute preview call is a good first step.

What is fractional HR support?
Fractional HR support gives small and growing businesses access to senior HR expertise without hiring a full-time HR leader. We handle strategy, compliance guidance, employee relations, and people-program design on a part-time or project basis.
How is coaching different from therapy?
Coaching is forward-focused: we work on your career, leadership growth, boundaries, and resilience strategies. Therapy treats mental health conditions and processes deeper psychological issues with a licensed clinician. Many clients benefit from both, and if your needs are better served by a therapist, we'll say so and help you find the right support.
