Coaching Testimonials

The day after our session, I noticed a difference in how I showed up. The sensations are subtle and deep – feelings of ease & courage to express through me, from me. I have a strengthened connection to my younger tenacious self – the essence of curiosity, courage, and conviction. I remember what brings me joy and connection to who I am, personally and professionally.

Lucy Shenouda, PCC
Principal - Head Coach

Thank you for your inspiring, relieving, insightful and energizing session! You opened up valuable new perspectives on my current situation. It is amazing, but just in a time of one hour I was able to view my situation from a completely new angle, and suddenly see the road to my ultimate dream and solutions.

Natalia Fey
CEO and PhD researcher

After one year of coaching with Marcia, my attitude about myself, my career and my business has shifted 180 degrees. I find myself returning to the same feelings and attitude I had when I started my business, the courage to make and even embrace change and to move forward by making choices that benefit me, not just looking out for everyone else. I want to emphasize that Marcia does not make decisions for me but instead has helped me develop ways to deal with situations using my own knowledge and self-awareness, and she helped me at least develop a plan or concept for what I want my career to look life for the next 25 years of my life. I have come to regard Marcia as a valued friend as well as business advisor.

Since beginning my work with Marcia earlier this year, she has been an exemplary professional coach. She exhibits a unique sense of interest in my life and her insights and direction are always on target. I feel very supported and championed in the attainment of my goals. She has been a vital resource to me and I look forward to our continuing relationship.

Joe Mazzenga
Vice President

I always look forward to my conversations with Marcia. She is able to strike a unique balance of careful listening with sharing her wealth of experience and ideas. She quickly pinpoints the crux of a situation and does not fail to leave me with helpful insights, ideas or questions to ponder.

Eric Horlbeck
VP R&D

I hired Marcia when I relocated to Phoenix. She not only helped me settle into a new position, but her insights, great questions and gentle prodding helped me to avoid some potentially sticky political situations with my peers. As a result, I am able to focus on what I do best. She helped to make my transition seamless.

Linda Ruby
VP Marketing

What I liked most is your ability to mirror, and then articulate what’s going on based on what you sense which created so much awareness. You have such a solid presence!

Julius Ordonez
President

I began working with Marcia at a time when I was very unhappy with my primary employment. Within the span of four months, I made a decision to actively create a new future by redesigning my role within my organization. As a result, I moved out of an area of employment where I had been stuck for 14 years and moved into a new area of where I increased my salary by 20% and I enjoy my work every day. Marcia prepared me for this major employment transition and supported me through the transition. On top of all this, Marcia helped me learn how to make life and work fun.

Mark Boyer
Manager of Development

As to the value for my money? Absolutely! I would recommend Marcia. She is different than I am, and I believe this has been very helpful. In the past, I always chose to surround myself with personalities and view points similar to mine. She makes me look at at things in a new way, adapting both my personality and lifestyle. It works!

Lynn Berzynski
CEO

My life would not be the same without Marcia as my coach. She has guided me through a number of job changes with the bank, helping me to stay focused on the advantages instead of the difficulties. The higher I have risen in my organization, the more I find how important it is to have someone to talk to on the outside, for both the perspective and encouragement. I have referred Marcia to many of my colleagues and all have been grateful to me for finding her. She is a real treasure.

Betty Aga
VP HR Business Support Team

Marcia was a God-send. She helped me prioritize what was important in my life and professionally. She introduced me to the concepts of being present and making space. She helped guide me to surround myself with people and tasks that were good for me and for my goals while eliminating the energy involved in tasks and relationships that were not. Her coaching was the start of my journey into a leadership position and she provided me the foundation for growth and success.

Julie P.
MD

Marcia asks the right questions to lead me to very solid decisions. She has helped me to focus and prioritize. I have been better able to look at problems in different ways, thus finding very meaningful solutions. I am a better leader today because of the coaching I received from Marcia.

Krista Endsley
CEO

I would like to thank you for the coaching you have given me. Your style and method is very effective, helping me to refocus my energies and complete some major goals in my busy life. I would liken your effect as a much needed “kick in the pants.”

Curtis Walker
Pilot

I have worked with Marcia for the past year and I feel privileged to have her as a coach. As a result of her coaching, I take actions that maximize my results and I spend minimal amounts of time on side issues. In addition, she has helped me improve not only the quality of clients in my practice, but also the quantity of money they provide me as well. I am also blessed with Marcia’s ongoing humor, wisdom, and graciousness which are a wonderful model for anyone at any time.

Margaret A. Krigbaum
Executive Coach

In January of 1999 I hired Marcia to be my personal coach for a relationship that lasted over two years. I have experienced her as committed to me as a person and to my goals. Her coaching style is versatile moving effectively between process and content. She has been helpful working with me on my presentation skills and also on business development.
