Making A Difference:

What Clients Say

"Coaching was tremendously helpful to me in moving out of a place where I felt stuck professionally, which was also affecting me personally. As a direct result of my work with Hanna, I was able to identify the next steps to take toward a new career direction. A few months of regular phone coaching with Hanna made a big difference in my career and my life. I'm moving forward on a path that feels right." – CR
“Instead of giving me 'the answer', Hanna asks the questions so I can find my own solutions. By coaching with Hanna, I am finally resolving situations that have lingered unresolved for years, as I discover I have the capacity within me to change my current and future outcomes. Coaching with Hanna has changed who I am and who I will become.” – CM
“Hanna asks honest, open questions that requires one to look deep inside to search for truthful answers - to move you past your layers of various identities and help you find your core being so that you can address your own questions in a truthful manner. She invites dialogue that helps one see oneself as a strong and capable individual. She is intuitive, welcoming and non-judgmental – it’s very easy to be open and honest with her.” -SGF

My Thanks to You

One of the many things I am aware of being thankful for this season is the opportunity I have to do the work I do: coach amazing men and women on their path of creating greater fulfillment, balance and purpose in their lives. I say this all the time to clients, but it is a true honor for me to witness and journey with all the people I work with as a coach, including you here in the blogosphere. I am lucky and blessed.

In this spirit of thanksgiving and reverence, I have a request of you: if you feel you have received something beneficial from your experience with me as a reader of this blog, please pay it forward, and let me know when you have.

If you're not sure what I mean by "pay it forward", consider: From what you've experienced here on this blog, what has touched you or made a difference to you? What can you share that could touch someone else?

From who I know my readers here to be, I don't doubt that you've probably already paid forward in many ways, and I am glad to know you are all out there, making a difference in your own individual worlds, organizations and communities. Whether this is a regular practice or a new idea, I'd love to hear about how you are extending what you experience here on this blog out into the broader world.

Happy Thanksgiving!
