Leslie’s work as a coach is quite powerful. She has found the sweet spot of merging her authentic spiritual wisdom with her many decades as a practicing psychotherapist, mentor, coach, workshop leader and speaker, all infused with her very pragmatic and joyful view of living and actualizing our dreams.

Every time I get off the phone with you I feel more aligned. My head is higher, my spine more erect, I feel calm and I have greater clarity about my next steps moving forward in my life.

No one teaches the personal factor of honoring, celebrating and acknowledging who you are like Leslie does. This profound shift in perception has changed me to the core. Leslie has been instrumental in helping me embrace my own power. In our work together, she taught me the value of being conscious of my choices and how they can nurture the essence of the life I want. It is from that place of awareness that I have grown so much more comfortable in acknowledging and choosing what brings me happiness and joy. Leslie’s philosophy of living by design, on purpose, and authentically as myself has empowered me in ways that continually amaze me, including to the expansion of my business into something I have always imagined.

I wrote a book because you and I talked. I got a multi-six figure job, more money than I had ever earned before, because you and I talked. You have been an invaluable support to me helping me make hard concrete changes.

You are a straight shooter. I can count on your honesty … you don’t baby me. You show me what I can’t see and need to know. I want to hear it because it shows me where I’m blind. When I can see what I need to learn I can do what it takes to change.

Instead of living in fear, anxiety and push I find my life is more an exploration, an experiment, a creative unfoldment. I am more calm.

As an example I am facing a situation with my mom’s health. Last time we went through something like this I was a wreck, future thinking, trying to create a solution for something that had not occurred. This time I am with what is and trusting all will unfold and I will figure it out when the time comes. Until then, there is nothing for me to do. I don’t have to get upset before it happens.

I’m more detached. Watching the show. Yes there is a level of drama. And I don’t have to get dramatic about the drama. I can watch the show and take action when its mine to take. I am confident in my ability to face life challenges and present to see different possibilities.

The same is occurring at work. I find I am present to the person/situation and a better listener/coach. My focus allows me to be open to possibilities/ creative solutions. The result is that I am more effective.

Working with Leslie is inspiring and motivating. She helps me see the things I cannot see I in front of me. She opens doors so I can walk through and take the action necessary to create what I want. Because of my time with her I have healed much of my past and am now living in a happy relationship, one I am allowing myself to enjoy, finally. I am also thriving at work, confident in my skills, giving my best, secure, not in the job, but in myself, because I now realize I’m the kind of person who is resourceful and creative and I will find a way to make my life work no matter what. Leslie helped me see this about me. My life is so much better because I know this to be true.

I have been working with Leslie on stepping into the power of my presence specifically in the domain of work. I recently showed up in a new way with a prospect. I said what I knew to be true, supported by the wisdom gained from 28 years of experience in my field. I was okay if the prospect decided not to work with me. I knew I was serving her by telling her what I knew to be true. If she wasn’t going to let me do my job and represent her as best I knew how it would be better for us both for her not to hire me.

This was huge for me, for in the past I would collapse into people pleasing and things would get messy. It felt so good to stand in my integrity with who I am and what I know. I am grateful to be experiencing a new level of personal freedom and personal leadership.

My whole life has upshifted. Standing up and showing up authentically is spilling over to other areas of my life as well. Overall I am living a better quality of life.

I am amazed at how Leslie is way ahead of the way most people approach the change process. I have been using techniques and tools she gave me years ago that are just now being talked about as innovative and cutting edge. I have transformed so much within myself that I brought Leslie in to work with my staff teaching them to be more accountable to themselves and each other as a Highly Effective Team. So far, the work my staff has done with her is reaping good results.

In the very first session I had with Leslie she had me explore what it was I was committed to. With her gentle guidance I discovered I was committed to misery! Wow, that blew my mind. And based on results it was true. She then asked me what it is I really wanted. My answer: to live in joy. That was a life changing moment for me. Here it is years later and I am living a life I love, in beautiful country, with a wife I adore, doing work that nourishes me.

Leslie kept me focused, keeping me positive in the place of uncertainty.  She kept me on track, helping me face what needed to be handled so I didn’t fall into the trap of my own fears and negativity. I found her support to be invaluable in a difficult time, and her skills helped me stay open to creating what I really want.
