"I had been interested in seeking out a professional coach for several months before the opportunity to connect with Victoria came up. I was feeling out of balance, and had been considering a change in my career for about a year before Victoria and I talked for the first time.

Identifying what I value most, and where I was feeling “off balance” were two keys in the coaching process for me. The Coaching process with Victoria re-affirmed my desire to live my values, to align my life activities with those values, and to become more confident about letting go of my current employment situation to seek out a new career opportunity.

At the end of my coaching experience, I was confident that I made a great choice in changing employers, and I felt more balanced and at peace than I had in a long time. The experience was well timed in my life, and has made a lasting impact on how I live my life day to day."

"Thank you Victoria for your coaching, guidance, and encouragement during our recent work together. I am grateful for your stick-to-it-iveness...I needed that! You were able to keep me on track and focused (no simple task with my busy life)! Your ability to nudge me into discovering my real lifestyle values was just what I needed.

After 15 years, I had reached a place in my sales job that was not fulfilling in the slightest. It was rapidly proving harder and harder to make a buck, and I did not feel valued as an employee. I knew I had reached the end of the line, but was just hanging out in limbo without a clear direction of where to go next. It seemed everyone had a different suggestion for me, but none seemed like the right path.

With your help, I was able to be introspective in a purposeful way. I was able to establish my true values and take a realistic look at all of my career possibilities. When the opportunity came up for me to work part-time at my children's school as their Marketing Coordinator I jumped into the positon and realized that I LOVED what I was doing and had to look no further. I get tremendous fulfillment from this work and am able to use my creativity. Most importantly, this position absolutely meets my 'family friendly' time value. I am truly where I am supposed to be!

As a result of your coaching process, I feel reassured that I am done searching for additional career possibilities and finally do have peace with a career choice that matches my values as a mother, wife and the working girl inside of me!"

"Working with Victoria propelled me towards my goals. I learned to focus and create structures, and was able to progress more rapidly than ever before! Victoria's inquisitive manner and creative personality enhanced our coaching relationship. In addition, her support, encouragement, and gentle 'nudges' kept me going in the right direction."

"Victoria's Guilt-Free Coaching service was pivotal in helping me at a critical fork in the road of my life. I had made a decision that it was time for some changes, which meant a shift in the direction of my life's work and career direction. However, my personal values and goals had not crystallized in sync with that decision until I experienced the coaching process.

It was the third party objective perspective that Victoria provided; paired with the structured exercises that Victoria walked me through that made all the difference in solidifying my decision.

By utilizing Victoria's coaching, it became clear to me that that the road (less traveled) I was choosing at this fork in my life would be fulfilling and congruent with who I am, what I want out of my life and what I want my life's work to represent.

I am recommending Victoria's inspiring service to everyone I know personally."

" Thank you so much for your business coaching. As a result of our sessions I have actually hired desk help for my acupuncture office. I realized that trying to do it all was not what was needed and that I needed to take responsibility for creating the time that I wanted with my young adult children.

I now feel more focused at work and am not thinking about what I am not doing while I'm at work and I'm not thinking about work while I'm doing other things. I am grateful Victoria."

Joyfully,

"My life was in chaos, I was going through a divorce and very overwhelmed and unorganized because of being sick for many years. I had no family in this country and very little support for myself and my three children now 7, 9 and 11.

Victoria helped me to define and then prioritize my goals and get balance into my life. As I now look back, Victoria made a huge impact in my life and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for her.

Although my life is not easy, I am much more centered and peaceful. My life verse (Phil 4:4-7) came from my work with Victoria . I have to keep going back to depending on God for my peace and not other people or circumstances."

Karen Thorp
Mother of 3 & Communications Assistant

"Victoria, your coaching helped me to see what's possible and what's holding me back so that I am able to confidently move forward towards my goals. It's exciting to see the huge shifts in my thinking, communication and how I approach life.

Thank you for the insight and courage!"
