Janet provides a safe environment for me to look at my life and
change what I want to change. When friends or other confidantes
look at me sideways or give me advice from their perspective, Janet
is very trustworthy and allows me to be completely honest with
myself. When I started coaching, I had no grasp of the consequences
of my actions, especially financially.
Most people won't admit
that they're living paycheck to paycheck or moment to moment.
It was a very reactive way to live. Coaching has allowed me the
confidence to be more responsible with my finances, to budget and
have money left over, to plan for the future and be proactive.
Right now I work for the phone company, and I restore vintage automobiles
in my spare time. My plan is to make my living restoring these
cars that I love, and coaching is helping me get there.

Working with Janet ( and don't let anyone kid you, coaching can
be work) is one of the best things I've ever done for myself. Her
humor, warmth, intelligence, honesty and genuine caring shines
through in all of her interactions.
Being someone with "trust
and boundary issues" (as therapists would say), I thought it
would be difficult for me to work with someone who seemed "too
familiar." But Janet has a unique ability to combine authentic
warmth, compassion and respect with just the right amount of "toughness" to
help me see what I need to see to move forward.
Janet
is a gifted coach, but more importantly for me, she has been
a mentor, spiritual guide and trusted teacher. And she likes dogs
and children - another plus in my book!

One of Janet's strongest aspects is how very accepting she is.
People have the capacity to change, but in order to do that, they
have to feel fine and normal right where they are. Janet's acceptance
of me where I am has helped me to change what I've wanted to change
in my life. She helps people to see within themselves and come more
in tune with who they are. She has an objective wisdom that is very
powerful.
I really enjoy that she plays an interactive
role in our conversations. I appreciate that she brings her own
person into the coaching. Her life experience, wisdom and complete
acceptance have helped to bring out the best in me. I've explored
my faith with Janet; I've made a geographical move, and now I am
looking for the relationship of my dreams.

Having experienced quite a few of life's ups and downs, I have
found that it's a joy to experience the ups but life can definitely
be difficult during the challenges. Having some guidance, help and
support can really be beneficial.
When I first sought out
help from Janet, I was trying to navigate through a very difficult
relationship. Needing some impartial help to draw my boundaries,
see things from another person's perspective and decide the best
path forward, Janet turned out to be the perfect coach. That
process took a year, and I believe that the end result was the
best one. I have not had second thoughts about the difficult choices
that I made.
Since then, I have gone on to also utilize Janet
to help discover my many desires and talents which I hope will
lead me to making the most of my years to come. And going forward,
I plan to occasionally meet with Janet for help in evaluating the
many challenging decisions that I will surely face in these complex
and stressful times. For individuals looking for similar help and
guidance, I enthusiastically recommend Janet.

A good friend of mine once made the comment that we get into trouble
when we think we are physical beings waiting to be spiritual, when
really we are spiritual beings temporarily engaged in a physical
life. I believe that to be true, but I don't talk about it with
most people. Talking with Janet was such a feeling of freedom because
I could talk about my physical health, my emotional health and
my spiritual health.
Working with Janet meant that I had actual
feedback and could work things out in real conversation, not the
non-participatory "Well, what do you think?" that I had
experienced in the past. I am a clear thinker, and I KNOW what
I think! I also believe that we already have all the answers inside
of us. The trick is to find them, acknowledge them and act on them.
Janet is one of those angels who can turn a flashlight onto the
answers we are hiding from ourselves and not be judgmental in
the process.
I believe that we all have fears that hold
us back, and we have perfectly good reasons for hiding those
fears from ourselves. I also believe that if we don't transform
those fears into more powerful and positive thoughts, we will stumble
through life with one hand tied behind our backs. We need to
be safe, accepted and encouraged in such a task, and that is what
Janet is able to offer. She truly has a healing heart.
I encourage anyone who is tired of living the hard way, walking
into the same brick walls over and over, or is just feeling
stuck to work with Janet. She is the conduit when you are tired
of living in the problem and ready to live in the solution.

Janet is my tiramisu, my uplifter. She has been a light of hope
in my sometimes dark and fragile heart. I started coaching with Janet
after the death of my parents. Today my heart is definitely brighter
and stronger thanks to the help and support she has given me. Now
I am working with Janet to live a healthier lifestyle and take care
of my diabetes. I also want to find work that expresses my passion
for helping people. This possibility gets closer to becoming a reality
with every conversation we have.
