Client Testimonials

“Liz quickly understood my development goals & focus areas. She actively contributed to my growth by asking the right questions and by referring to useful tools and readings. Liz offered a good balance of active listening and challenging questioning that helped me understand obstacles in new ways…  I was able to understand the subjective perspective I was bringing to the situation and then how to move past this and tackle the task head-on.”

Kushal Mehta, Business Development, Qualcomm

“Liz’s coaching approach is incredibly client-centered. Prior to our sessions, I was unfamiliar with the coaching process, unsure of what to anticipate. I arrived feeling lost regarding my career priorities, coupled with anxiety surrounding my job search. Liz’s method facilitated a deeper understanding of myself and my aspirations. Through her guidance, I learned to center my thoughts and uncover answers to my own questions. The optional homework she provided was instrumental in translating session insights into tangible actions. I’m truly thankful for the opportunity to work with Liz!”

Karen Robles, Senior Product Manager, Amazon

“The exercises and Liz’s objective insights, brought to light some issues and things to focus on. I really liked how Liz asked such good questions. These were what helped with a lot of self-realization. I also liked how Liz offered different strategies to find what worked best for me. Finding my triggers and how to manage them is a huge step. In addition, the exercise of writing my goal and then how she helped me focus on how to achieve it, has been amazing and life-changing.”
