What follows is a testimonial from a client. I couldn’t use it in its entirety in the testimonials section of this website because it’s too long for the design. I want to share it here to demonstrate the transformational possibilities of partnering with me.
This is what my client, Naomi, wrote:
When I began my journey with Karen, my life changed unimaginably. Each session felt like stepping into a sanctuary – a safe, nurturing space where I was encouraged to dig deep, explore and unravel the complexities of my life, thoughts, and emotions.
The level of understanding and self-awareness that Karen’s coaching provides is truly remarkable. No topic is off-limits, and no problem is too small or too large. She guided me with such grace and wisdom that the depth of our explorations often left me astounded, armed with fresh insights and perspectives that I hadn’t been able to see before.
Karen’s practical approach to coaching stands out from the rest. The tools, exercises, and practices she provides are insightful and immediately applicable. From the first few sessions, I began to see their positive effects ripple across all aspects of my life. Over time, they have helped me gain a sense of clarity that I never thought possible, boosting my confidence and bringing a level of peace that I had long yearned for.
One of the greatest things I’ve learned from Karen is to become more conscious and truly present in my life. This awareness has led to better decision-making, improved relationships, and a deeper understanding of myself.
I am a different person today than I was when I first stepped into Karen’s coaching sanctuary. Her guidance has not just improved my life – it has transformed it. I am now more self-aware, more at peace, and better prepared to face any challenge that life throws at me.
As Karen launches her new website, I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for a life coach to help you transform, look no further. Embark on this life-changing journey with Coach Karen. I promise you – you will not be the same.
I replied:
Wow, thank you for the testimonial, Naomi. Reading it filled my soul. I’m so happy to see you feeling better, always. Your transformation is down to you. I can partner with you but can’t do the work for you. Witnessing how committed and open you are to the process is wonderful. Please remember to honour all wins and give yourself credit.
I use the words ‘success’ and ‘bless’ a lot. So, when I read your testimonial, I said ‘success and bless’; when my coffee turns out lovely, I say ‘success and bless’. I’m constantly affirming what I want more of. Success is soul-nourishment, fulfilment, abundance, freedom, flexibility, sovereignty, joy, peace, love, and feeling in my power and plugged into source energy.
Love and gratitude from your soul sister, friend and coach,
Karen
Trust and Transformation
This level of transformation is possible because of a deep level of trust between Naomi and I. We’ve never met in person. She’s in Canada, and I’m in Europe. This level of transformation is also possible because of the trust Naomi is rebuilding in herself.
Rebuilding trust in oneself again after a major life or career crisis or breakdown takes work on different levels, inner and outer, and is essential for transformation.
Naomi is doing incredibly well after the pressure of her leadership role in the corporate tech world, where she and her team dealt with banned content, which led to burnout and breakdown. After the initial prescribed treatment and recovery period, when Naomi felt strong enough to start coaching, she reached out to me. We go at Naomi’s pace and do whatever she wants. I also suggest things based on where she’s at.
In addition to all the transformational coaching, on the career side of coaching, I’ve coached Naomi in presentation skills, interviews, conscious communication, and conflict resolution.
