Testimonials

My coaching session with Samantha was my first experience with a life coach. I came with ideas of where my career could go, but unsure how to concretely plan my pathway to success. My session with Samantha helped me to streamline my goals and quantify what success would entail. I walked away with more defined objectives and clear next steps. My favorite part of the session was that Samantha did not dictate what my next steps should be. Instead, she empowered me to lean on my existing experience and asked the proper questions to lead me toward a crystallized plan. She provided the guidance I needed to allow me to process my choices. As someone who was initially unsure how beneficial a life coach could be, I would highly recommend Samantha! She provided immense value at a critical stage of my journey. Her extensive work experience and keenness to listen and understand my needs proved to be immeasurable.

A coaching session with Samantha transformed my life. I worked with Samantha in preparing to relocate to another state and would be searching for new employment. Samantha's ability to listen deeply to my responses and ask probing questions allowed me to recognize what I was and was not looking for in my employment hunt. Furthermore, her infectious optimism paired with practical advice empowered me to take decisive action in the direction that best met the needs of myself and my family without feeling guilt. Before my session, I did not feel like I had a lot of options but after my session, I felt like the possibilities were endless and my experience would allow me to seek employment that best suited my needs. I would recommend a coaching session with Samantha to anyone who needs an objective ear to listen and ask questions to help them understand their passions in life.

Her wisdom, honesty, and accountability encouraged me to let go of the invisible pressures that I've put on myself throughout my professional journey. With thoughtful, soul-piercing questions, Samantha helped me to evaluate my thoughts and actions to break free from everything that no longer serves me. Now as I walk into a new chapter of my life, I feel freer and lighter than ever!

Samantha has been coaching me for a while now and she has an uncanny ability to infuse light and clarity into whatever topic I bring to the conversation. She helps me see what needs to happen, and a way forward though my challenges. I especially appreciate the way she creates such a positive, safe space for me to be open and vulnerable without judgement. My coaching sessions with Samantha help me to show up more intentionally in my life and I always feel better after a session with her.

My sessions with Samantha over the past 6 months have given me so much perspective and have helped me move forward in really concrete ways…I love how Samantha helps me think outside of the box and challenges me to see my problems as opportunities to act and change. She has helped me see the gifts and potential in my own life and has helped me believe more in myself. I would recommend sessions with Samantha to anyone who needs some direction and encouragement in their life!

Samantha helped guide me and empower me at the same time. This is Samantha's power to make sure you leave the session feeling like you have figured out and solved your own problem. I was not sure what to expect from the coaching session, but I left the session with new insights that I wouldn't have had except for the session with Samantha. Samantha's approach forced me to think through my issue and helped empower me to be more confident to negotiate my salary with my boss. I highly recommend Samantha as a coach. She cares about people and gives coaching her all. She is thoughtful, direct, and encouraging.
