"Lisa is an incredible coach. I took a package of 6 sessions with her when entering a new leadership position and it was the best thing I could have invested in during those first few months in a new role. The space she provided to stop and reflect deeply on how I was approaching challenges, why I tended to approach them in a certain way, and how actions left me feeling, was invaluable. She is very gifted in gently prompting and guiding your own thoughts and solutions on issues you are facing. It left me feeling that nothing I would face would be more than I had the internal resources to solve for!"

"I absolutely enjoyed doing coaching sessions with Lisa! What stood out for me the most was how what my body is saying was given an equal value just like my mind. Lisa has a beautiful way of helping you listen to your own thoughts that sometimes are difficult to access. The sessions helped me put things in perspective and provided a safe space for reflection. Lisa is a very kind, patient and supportive coach. I am very grateful to her for playing such an important role in my journey of making sense of this thing called life!"

Morgan

"Where to begin on the experience I had being coached by Lisa!? I think no better testament to her coaching skills is the fact that I was able to interview and get my dream job during the course of our coaching sessions – I know that a large part of my interview success came from having truly identified myself and my goals, and the confidence that came with that. I had no idea what to expect from coaching, but through my sessions with her I was able to more clearly see my goals and how to resource the traits I needed to get there. She introduced a lot of useful tools that I am still holding onto as I navigate life, like being able to visualize my inner leader, coming up with a life purpose statement, and analogies that help me cut through a lot of my thinking to get at the heart of what I want to do here on this earth. Thank you so much Lisa!"

"Lisa is a highly effective coach. A great listener, she understands her clients’ all-too-human challenges. Her approach to coaching is structured and yet very fluid. She knows when is the time to push you for action, and when to leave you to get on with things and find your own answers. Thanks to her constructive questioning, she has helped me to give a different perspective to situations and discover how to gear my brain into a growth mindset."

- Afroditi Tsourgianni, Behavioral Scientist, UK

Frida

"I absolutely loved my coaching session with Lisa. Her approach was very practical, I was able to reflect deeper about what was going inside my mind, feel it and experience it from different perspectives. She helped me understand better what I needed to do in order to move forward by simply looking at different possibilities and choosing what felt best to my body. After our session I felt inspired and motivated to take action. This wasn’t just a coaching conversation, it involved embodiment and I felt supported and guided at all times by her loving energy. If you’re reading this don’t hesitate to work with Lisa! She’s amazing!! "
