Holly’s coaching helped bring the big picture goals into focus for my career and family. With her questions and homework, I was intentional about making space to really address the trajectory I desire, even in a season where time to myself is a luxury.

Holly is a 10 out of 10, top notch! She created a multi-month development program that was custom-designed for the needs of our staff. Our sessions with her truly breathed new life into our staff, and into myself!

I originally reached out to Holly to help prepare for an intense interview process, but found myself prepared for so much more than that after working with her. Not only did I feel prepared for my interview, I felt more equipped and motivated to fully embrace my professional path. Working with Holly helped to remove blocks I had been struggling with for years. I often think back to our discussions when I need inspiration, clarity, motivation, or strength.

Holly is an amazing consultant and coach! Regardless of where you are in your career, anyone would benefit from meeting with Holly. I approached my opportunity with Holly not sure I really needed a coach. In the end, I am not sure what I would have done without her guidance. The fulfillment in my daily work has increased exponentially. Her approach is calm and thoughtful but also deep and thorough. If you are ready to find clarity, make a change or improve fulfillment in your current position, take the time to work with Holly. You will not regret your decision.

It is clear that Holly is an expert in leading groups and helping them see the deeper meaning of the group activities. For me the best part was witnessing all of the rapid mental and emotional growth on my team--In additional to watching them connect I saw a community of support being formed and that made the whole day worth it

We have all participated in trainings before where facilitators talked "at" us or "down to" us - not so with Holly. She was direct, respectful, inclusive and FUN - Holly facilitated great discussions and gave us useful insight into our team dynamics. She was a clear, positive communicator and shared valuable info in fun ways that felt relevant to our team and the work we do. We only get a few hours together as a team each month, usually just in meetings - and these hours we spent with Holly were valuable and deepened our professional relationships with one another.

Looking back at the season in which I was coached by Holly, I can easily say that I have not experienced more growth in any other season of my life. Daily, I see the lasting effects of her desire to set me up for success in any way possible. I owe much of who I am today, both professionally and personally, to Holly's intentional coaching and friendship.

Holly is the calm, logical, compassionate glue that holds teams together. In one-on-one coaching times, she listens intentionally and offers wise and easily applicable advice. Holly has the uncanny ability to see situations from many different perspectives which has produced (on numerous occasions) sage advice on how to handle interdepartmental personnel issues with tact, poise, and wisdom.
