  • Testimonials

    Joe Skare  "After losing my job as a radio DJ, I came to coaching because I was questioning whether this was the field of work for me or not. Coaching helped me to see that I still had the passion for this field, but I was missing the creative end of the business. Coaching helped me to direct and channel my passion and energy back into that part of the business. It also helped me to focus my energy on, and further develop my love for something I've always wanted to do, which is free lance voice over work. My life is more balanced and my free-lance work continues to grow because of the actions I take to make it grow."

    Paul F.  "Coaching helps me to see WHERE my thinking has become blocked, what conclusion I am dancing with that's keeping me from achieving what I really want. With Kris' help, I can see alternatives I couldn't see before. She helps me to see my own answers; she doesn't tell me what to do. And she's there - supporting me, cheering me on, wanting to see me succeed, part of my team.”

    Patty E.  “Thanks so much, for the telephone Coaching Session last night! You provide an immense amount of validation, encouragement and support; I am very appreciative.
