  • Better Parents

    She helped us strip away what we think we need to do or to be, and empowered us all to be ourselves

  • Got the Job!

    I worked with Christine to prepare for an interview for a job that I really wanted, but knew would be extremely competitive. Wanting something so badly made me feel vulnerable and insecure - what if I failed? I worked through my fears, got re-centered and touched base with my authentic voice. Once we found that place of truth, she gave me guidance and concrete strategies so I knew how to express my strengths. It worked! I got the job and I love it!

  • Showing up calm and collected

    Through my coaching with Christine, I was able to identify my triggers and to quickly ground myself in the situation and keep from spinning out. Christine was always available to help me identify what I needed to guide me to success. I went from panic attacks, anxiety, an ulcer to showing up calm and collected with the people and in the environment around me, including with my family.

    Thank you Christine!

  • I now tune into my inner knowing

    After interviewing several prospective coaches, I knew that Christine was the coach for me. She has a ton of tools in her toolbox and did a wonderful job of meeting me where I was. She emphasized a "from the ground up" process that helped me tune into my inner knowing and intuition. She helped me identify and work through limiting beliefs. And she gave me tools to continue to use long after we stopped working together. After a year of working together, I had decided on a new career path, a plan to get there, and am happily on my way. Also, I love Christine's positive, energetic, and caring approach!

  • Launched my business!

    Christine is a wonderful coach who helped me move to action on my business. She worked with me for three months assisting me in gaining clarity on how I wanted to roll out my business to the world. I was able to work through the things that was holding me back and preventing me from taking action. I have launched my business and have confidence that I will be able to make an impact. Thanks Christine!"

  • I Hear My Intuition!

    At the beginning of 2022 I began looking at my personal and spiritual growth from a new angle. I contacted Christine and we had a 1:1. I got my questions answered, and committed to 6 months of 2 nights per month for 2 hours each that I would put on my calendar and protect as time just for me. For anyone with young children, you know how much of a big step this is. I was going to be saying no to others in order to give myself a big yes.

    I'm so glad I did. I truly believe that learning how to hear my intuition more clearly through the Illuminate Your Truth program brought me positive benefits!

  • Supported and heard

    Christine provided a consistent presence and multiple approaches for facilitating self reflection. I didn’t feel coached as much as I felt supported and heard as I explored my perceptions of what stops me from moving forward with my goals”

  • Unstuck!

    The magic for me is that I entered feeling stuck in one area in my life, but with Christine’s guidance and very little sense of effort on my end, I came out of the experience unstuck!

"I am very comfortable being myself"

Before Christine started coaching me, I felt stuck and could not find a way out no matter what I tried. I was really frustrated with myself. I knew that I wanted more for my life personally and in my career.

Despite my career successes, I kept looking for validation and was very reactive to how others felt about me. I got triggered easily by those around me. I am somewhat introverted and think things through a lot. All the things we learn about self-love, being our authentic self and having emotional intelligence made sense to me logically but could not make them a part of my life.

She helped me to believe that I could be my authentic self and that was the best that I could offer others around me. We worked on the areas that I struggled in with a different mindset. Instead of feeling overwhelmed and lacking, I was able to understand how I could improve in these areas as well as change how I reacted to others around me and not take things personally.

Christine’s coaching prepared me for what came next in my career. I ended up leaving my job and going to another company as an HR Director. I am able to stand my own and not react to everything they say. I am very comfortable being myself. I am also in two non-profit organizations' Board of Directors. I am SEEN for the first time in a long time. I feel at peace with who I have become and excited about my life once again and what awaits me in my next stage of life. I am exactly where I am supposed to be. Thank you Christine - without your coaching, I would not be where I am today and who I am (MYSELF)!

  • I became deeply aware of what I value most

    In the months prior to working with Christine. I had left a long, painful relationship, moved to a new city, and started a new career – the trifecta of life changes! I was excited by new possibilities, but I was also terrified. I felt like I carried so much stress and emotional baggage from the person I had been, I didn’t feel like I had the confidence to start again. Christine helped me to transform myself. She gave me a safe, nurturing space in which to confront and reconcile fears and self-doubts that had affected me for years. Guided by her powerful coaching, I became deeply aware of what I value most in life and of how I wanted to keep growing as a person.

  • Much clearer understanding of the facets of my personality

    Christine’s ability to be emotionally present, logical, and deeply insightful combine to make her an amazing professional coach. She looked at the issue I was working through in a holistic way, examining it both rationally/factually and emotionally, allowing both realms to exist simultaneously (as they do in real life). I found my session with her incredibly helpful and walked away with a much clearer understanding of how the different facets of my personality were affecting the decision I was trying to make.”
