Previously a federal law enforcement officer for the United States Department of Justice who was unfulfilled in her profession despite being successful in it, Crystal Barrow realized her calling shortly after the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. The eye-opening event reminded her how short life was, and so, she obtained her law degree and practiced law for over a decade as a criminal prosecutor for the City and State of New York.

Crystal became certified by the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), an International Coaching Federation (ICF) accredited program and subsequently launched her own business, Shape Your Success Coaching, where she serves clients locally and nationally.

Since launching her own business, Crystal became a single-mom-by-choice and a #1 Amazon best- selling author for her book, “Get Your Career Back on Track: 8 Steps to Go From Derailed to Empowered,” which provides a step-by-step process to readers for turning setbacks into comebacks. She has been mentioned and featured in several publications and television media including, Thrive Global, Ladders and Fox5 Good Day New York.

Additionally, she’s been asked to be a guest speaker at numerous events including the New York State Office of the Attorney General Legal Support Conference, the Criminal Justice Career Seminar at Monroe College, the “Career Moves: Identifying Your Transferrable Skills” event hosted by the NYC Department of Information Technology and Communications (DoITT) Office, and the Women in Business class at Medgar Evers College.

Crystal has also shared her expertise with others including:
American University Washington College of Law
Bottomless Closet in New York City
Women in Cable Telecommunications Annual Conference

When she’s not supporting and coaching clients or speaking at events, she’s enjoying motherhood raising her beautiful daughter.
