I would like to say thank you to the clients who have sent me testimonials, and hope that those of you reading them are able to get a sense of the value of coaching through them.

"Until I met Janet, I had no idea what a life coach was or could be. 
What I knew was that, in many ways, I didn’t quite seem able to 
achieve what I envisioned for myself. In some areas of my life I had a 
clear vision of what I wanted, in others I had no idea why it just 
wasn’t working or what was holding me back. What I wanted was an 
authentic, integrated life with the freedom to live out my own ideals. 
No small task! What I have received from working with Janet is the 
perspective, insight, courage and nuts-and-bolts skills that are 
making true change possible. I can’t imagine a better life coach."

"Working with Janet has been an absolute pleasure and has helped me achieve real and lasting weight loss results.  She has helped me see that weight loss is not just a temporary decision to go on a diet and lose a few pounds, but is a life shift, requiring an examination of my entire life and how it has impacted my weight.  I really appreciated the fact that Janet never nagged or judged, but provided a real "no-nonsense" approach to getting me to see all the things I wasn't always willing to see or do.  She's been there herself and understands the struggle, the challenges, and also the triumphs!  I'd highly recommend Janet's coaching to be in your toolbox for weight loss success!"

"I came to Janet completely confused about a move I had made to this area about 6 months ago, and a new job I had taken. I was not sure I felt comfortable with any decisions I had been making in recent years. She helped me identify my discomforts, look at things in a completely different way, and fully dive into my life with a gusto I had not felt before. I just got a promotion at work, and my boss said he had seen me change right before his eyes, which helped me to have a sense of just how much I have evolved in recent months. I would very much recommend Janet for anyone in transition."
-David G, Sonoma, CA

"In theory, losing weight is a mechanical process.  Anyone who reads magazines, diet books, & health journals soon gets to know that to lose weight you need to eat less than you need for fuel.  Simple, eh?  However, the thing that has been most difficult in my battle to lose weight isn’t the mechanics but the decision.  Making the decision and then sticking with it long enough for the mechanics to work.  Janet heard me state my desire and then held me to it.  She believed me even when I didn’t. She provided the coaching, the support, the sounding board, the one voice that said (sorry about this)  “yes, you can!”  and kept on saying it till I did.  She didn’t buy my mediocrity or my reasons why not. She asked the questions to head me right into the places I needed to go to make sure the decision was a lasting one and a deep one.  She didn’t offer any quick answers or quick solutions.  She actually supported me to stay in the depressingly awful experience of hopeless and helpless for long enough for me to move through it and on.  She recognised and acknowledged my success, each and every success, however small.  And all those small successes have added up to quite a big one and I am transformed.  If you feel in a really stuck place or you want someone in your corner, I recommend Janet."
