What
my clients say ...
I
have worked with Paula as my life coach for a year, and the
results have been better than I hoped for when I began. She
helped me break down challenges that felt overwhelming into
tasks that felt, and were, doable. Those tasks have now either
been accomplished or incorporated into my daily life without
conscious attention. I feel capable now, as a result of our
work together, of coaching myself.
Paula’s
coaching reminds me of the process of a child learning to walk.
At first the child needs the total physical support of an adult
as she is held up and encouraged to take her first steps. She
moves on to need only a hand. Then the adult moves a few steps
away and encourages the child to walk to him. Finally one day
the child sees something she wants and walks to it without thinking
and without any support or encouragement. That describes what
it’s been like working with Paula as a coach. |

Paula
helped me hear my OWN voice, instead of everyone else’s.

Paula
helped me and my husband so much. We thought entrepreneurial
coaching would cover just the technical aspects of starting our
business. What actually happened was that we became able to have
effective communication between the two of us. Now we
can identify the blocks that kept us from being able to hear each
other. Now we can work together!

I
have five reasons to extol the virtues of Paula's coaching! 1)
She
got me started. 2) She brought awareness to how I created
my own limitations, and where I was stuck. 3) She enabled me
in sessions to stretch myself and look beyond "The Box".
4) She greatly increased my effectiveness as a partner. And 5)
now I'm
more open, creative, and proactive in my approach to the business side
of my work as a counselor, coach, consultant, and teacher.

Paula
made the light bulb go off by clarifying for me what was going
on. That was it! Then I was able to see for myself how to deal
with my situation.

The
biggest benefit from Paula’s coaching has been that it
cultivated my self-awareness; it helped me come more fully into
my Life. Coaching has brought me to a place I wouldn't
have been able to go to before.
