“Katie Smith is an incredible professional coach. I hired her when contemplating starting my own business and she has been an invaluable partner along the way. Katie’s coaching approach in working through decisions brings out the best in an individual and gives confidence in the result.

As a part of the coaching, Katie is constantly supplementing the sessions with additional resources that are very beneficial. While this is my first time working with a professional coach, I would recommend it for anyone who strives to challenge yourself personally and professionally to become a better you, and I would recommend that Katie Smith is the partner to help you get there.”

“I asked Katie to help me find the clarity I needed to truly know what it was I was meant to do and wanted to do next…and that’s exactly what she did. Through her guidance and carefully crafted coaching, Katie helped me gain clarity at a time when things were incredibly cloudy in my career.

After just a few sessions, I was able to see again and with that vision, I found what I was looking for…all of this within a 2 month process. I couldn’t be happier and I know I have Katie to thank for getting me going!”

“After so many years as a professional Engineer, living so many different experiences in the industries, it is not a surprise to reach that moment in the middle career when you ask yourself what else could be achieved and how to recover a really meaningful work and professional life.

Ariana’s work was of an indescribable value in this moment. Through dialogue, tools, papers and a particular talent for listening and percepting, she was of great help to lead me to discover my possibilities, to redefine my targets, organize my ideas and prepare me for the next step of job searching.

The feeling that what is to come will be very meaningful and good for me feeds my gratitude feeling for the work of Ariana. What she does involves people life, for sure the most beautiful profession of all. ”

“Katie is a gifted and masterful coach. I was fortunate to find her during a period of difficult decision making in my life.

She has been a true God-send providing support and bringing clarity to my thinking. Katie’s gift is creating a safe environment for me to discover my own path and then supporting that decision. She is funny and friendly and smart and that makes every call fun. Thank you Katie!”

“I interviewed several coaches before I started working with Ariana. I very much appreciate Ariana’s demeanor and coaching style; she’s very thoughtful, intuitive and supportive. I started working with her because I wanted to gain confidence, develop a personal style and strategies as an ad sales professional. Ariana has helped boost my confidence and helped me develop a voice in sales. Her coaching style always helps me get to the source of any issues I am facing and she’s able to provide solutions that help me stay focused and positive.”

“I had the pleasure to work with Katie recently and very much enjoyed my experience. Katie is professional, insightful and practical. My time with her helped me understand my true career interests and I learned how to highlight my experiences and tailor them to my interests. Katie’s approach to coaching is productive and inspiring. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone seeking guidance and direction in their career.”

“Donna brings a great many paradigms to bear in customizing a coaching engagement. She is very energetic, informed, patient and pragmatic. Her process is truly transformational. The path Donna created for me was exactly what I needed to move my career where I wished it to go.”

“Donna is a ray of sunshine. I heard her on the radio and immediately she invited a connection. That connection has never wavered. It has been years, and still working with Donna has me learning something new about myself and what I can do. She provides guidance, direction, empowerment, and friendship. She is what mentorship should be about: Someone to go to when you have questions or concerns, and someone you can listen to whose skill just makes you want to be a better coach.”

“Thank you for helping me achieve the objectives I defined at the outset of our coaching engagement.   It wasn’t an easy process, however it was valuable. As a result of our work effort, I am a more effective leader now reaching strategic personal and professional goals. Coaching works!”
