"My coaching sessions with Jeannine accelerated my willingness to take new risks. She helped me get clear on the lifestyle I wanted to create after years of running a successful small business. Her encouraging style enabled me take the leap into a new artistic endeavor. She helped me clarify my thoughts, get focused on my goals and work through my barriers. And it was fun too!

Stephen Gibbens — Small business owner

"I've had the good fortune of being coached in an entirely new area — my life. Who ever heard of needing someone to give you lessons on your own life? Not me. Strange as it seemed, I was coached in an area I knew little of. It was and still is a great experience. Jeannine has helped me to take a look at myself and to make a stand in my life, to redirect my path, in a positive way. I've a long way to go, but it will be done. Jeannine has a calmness and peacefulness about her. A powerful tool, a strong one."

Tom — Firefighter

"I sometimes have an underlying plea for Jeannine to give the "right" answers to my unique circumstances. I know that it would only frustrate my process of taking my life in my hands and it is not what I really want. Another peculiar but wonderful aspect of coaching with Jeannine is that she doesn't judge my thoughts or the direction of my life course, but rather challenges me to understand, to feel, and to choose proactive strategies ("homework") to act upon during the week. She lets me create my own adventure, only serving as a guardrail protecting me from the occasional digressions into self-deprecation. She is never invasive, but only responds to where I lead her. She oftentimes gives me a fuller illuminated understanding in the places where I am stuck and lack seeing the larger picture. I have been amazed at times when her insightful analogies express the process of my becoming better than I ever could of myself. Jeannine has an intolerance for "garbage talk" in which she exposes the foolishness of my inner critic. She firmly exhorts me to try behaviors that seem to have self-veracity, in which I am the sole determinant."

Krista — Student

"Coaching by Jeannine has helped me step out in the world to be me, seeing the vastness in the world by seeing the greatness in others and in myself and all things in the world. The coaching has helped me see that life is just a process always unfolding, and more a place of being than doing things. By "being" in the world, I actually get more of the important stuff accomplished by just being me. Coaching has helped me focus on the greatness of life vs. being concerned about the pea under the mattress or the thorn in the tire. Understanding and discussing that it is ok for all of us to make mistakes will help in the process of being in the world in our greatness."

Mark — Psychiatrist

"My experience of Jeannine as a coach was profound and enlightening. Her ability to be present, curious and objective helped me discover in myself the resources I need to take some very difficult steps in my life. Her creative talent in interpersonal work is, to my mind, quite exceptional. Her compassion, rigorous honesty and simple grounded wisdom are a rare combination of personal qualities. The effects of her coaching stay with me. I am grateful to have worked with her as my coach."

Stephen — Grief Coach

"Jeannine does such a good job of helping me to organize and re-evaluate the work I am doing that the greatest teaching occurs between coaching sessions. I am able to walk away from a coaching session propelled forward, no longer feeling stuck in places that I needed help with in moving on. It is a process that she helps me work on at a pace that is doable for me. I do see progress and I feel excited by it. I feel empowered, not overwhelmed by the coaching Jeannine gives to me."

Donna — Mom, Teacher, Musician

"As a coach, Jeannine masterfully weaves the threads of gentleness and strength together. She is the combination of a butterfly and a lioness. All through the coaching, Jeannine stayed right beside me as a powerful and dynamic partner."
