“I have worked with Amber on and off over the last year. Being a coach myself I am picky to say the least and I highly recommend her! Amber was particularly helpful when it came to taking actionable steps to better understand who my customer base is, how to market to them and how to be more strategic about how I use my time. I highly recommend Amber if you need help with strategy and taking action!”
Mariella D, Professional Wellness Coach, New York, NY
“This is my second time working with Amber. Amber helped me identify and attain a dream fellowship following graduate school. Now, many years later, she is helping me navigate a mid-career transition. This has involved helping to identify dream jobs, sharpen my resume/interview skills, outreach to potential employers, and navigate tricky situations that come up in the current workplace. Amber is an excellent listener and provides invaluable advice and accountability to help vision and attain what you want at different points in your career. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
L.B., San Francisco, CA, Environmental Scientist
“Thank you for coaching me toward my dreams…you’ve helped me grow into a woman who is embracing what I really want in life. Thanks for making the world a better place!”
Jenna Chambers Burrow, Publisher, Mother of Three, Hutto, TX
“I’ve been working with Amber for several years now and as a hands-on single father and business owner, I can honestly say that she has added so much to my life. We have worked on all aspects, from being in business with family members to building healthy relationships with my children and my wife-to-be. My communication skills have improved tremendously as well as my self-worth. She gives me perspective on what I’m doing and has helped me understand that I am on a journey to be my true self. I’m grateful for her and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her help and guidance and of course my willingness to try hard.”
Jason Rittenbach, Business Owner, Father of Three, Oakland, CA
“Amber is amazing. She is a gifted coach and her intuitive, sensitive listening skills have supported me through some professional challenges. I highly and without reservation recommend Amber to anyone seeking to improve their professional communication skills or personal life skills.”
Corinne Meulrath, Regional Director, Sonoma County Office of Education, Mother of Three, Petaluma, CA
“After working with Amber, I was able to clearly articulate a future vision for myself and define my priorities to achieve greater work/life balance, which was having a significant impact on other aspects of my life. With Amber’s supportive coaching style, I was able to gain the confidence and made a significant career move that was long overdue. I’m not sure I would have made the transition without Amber’s know-how, encouragement, and support. Amber is able to span the personal & professional spectrums so seamlessly, it’s like getting two coaches for the price of one. She’s great at understanding the whole person and I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to make changes in their life for greater overall satisfaction.”
Susan Nelson, Sr. HR Manager, Mother of One, San Jose, CA
“I really have found our coaching sessions VERY helpful. I have to thank you for helping me find my way back to a balanced life.”
Jennifer Acquaah, Payments Strategist, Mother of Two, Aurora, ON, Canada
“Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful service to working mothers. You’re a great coach and I deeply value the time we’ve spent together and the progress you’ve helped me make in my life. I wouldn’t be this far along in my goals or have this much courage to push forward without your support. I’ve made more progress with you in the last 2 months than I made in 2 years of therapy.”
Joanne Stewart, Geography/Wildlife Project Manager. Mother of One, Glasgow, MT
“My experience with Amber was a huge success! I was able to easily identify the areas I wanted to work on and incorporate strategies to feel empowered and move forward. Amber helped me to identify a new mental framework for relationships where I can express what I need without feeling guilty. I feel so much more free! Thanks, Amber. I’m so grateful for your expertise and sensitivity. Thanks also for not letting me off the hook until I reached my goals. You’re the best personal coach out there.”
Christina Smith, Program Specialist Technician, Sonoma County Office of Education, Mother of Four, Santa Rosa, CA
“Juggling 3 kids, two cross-continental moves in two years AND a writing career became a lot more manageable once I started working with Amber. Although I certainly don’t always get it right, I can now identify much more quickly what’s most important even if that task wasn’t on my original to do list. Working with Amber, I also have learned to set boundaries which are mine alone to erect or relax: a very important skill given that the hardest task for me as a mom/writer is taking care of the kids but making sure I am also taking care of me so I can do my best by them. I also now give myself credit for my successes big and small whereas before Amber I tended to see all the things I hadn’t achieved. Acknowledging those successes puts everything in a better light.”
Suzanne McFayden Smith, Professional Writer and Mother of Three, Austin, TX
