Client Testimonials
"Participating in leadership coaching has helped me continue to prioritize my growth as a leader, despite the many challenges public health has faced over the years. There are not many spaces in Washington Governmental Public Health to experience true coaching, but this has been a consistent space for years where I have been able to develop myself to better serve my organization and community. Intentional development in strengthening the necessary skills and awareness needed to lead in this space has allowed me to function at a high-level over a long period."
- Deputy Director
"I came into this [coaching] knowing what I wanted my "future state" to look like, but having no idea how to get there. I could not have foreseen how much of my development work would revolve around the regulation of my own nervous system, and how instrumental that would be to opening doors in all other areas of professional improvement. Understanding more about how my body, thoughts, emotions and behaviors are all connected and feeding off one another has really helped me understand how to better improve my relationships and my communication styles. This has helped me professionally when dealing with difficult personalities, conversations or in challenging meetings, but it's also helped me personally be a better partner and friend."
"As a new leader in the public health space, it's been so helpful to have the opportunity to build skills and frameworks that set me up for the work I do and will continue to do. I look forward to every session and get something valuable out of each one."
