TESTIMONIALS

“With youth coaching not being my specialty (yet) and having many questions about it, I hired Sandi as a mentor coach when I was asked to coach a youth client.

Already the resources she sent me before we even had our first session were incredibly helpful.

The sessions themselves were insightful, a great learning experience and geared to what I needed. After the first talk I had with Sandi, my outlook and perspective on coaching youth changed completely and I felt more capable and competent.

What I especially appreciated as a certified coach, was how she connects youth coaching, which in some ways can be quite different from coaching adults, with staying true to the core competencies which are the essence of excellent, effective coaching.

I learned how to understand and relate to my youth client better, what I can expect from them and what not and how to really coach at their level.

It made me want to be more involved in coaching youth in the future as I’ve found effective ways to make a profound difference in the life of youth!

Youth coaching doesn’t seem to have clear definitions and boundaries yet and there’s not a lot of information to find on what makes up effective, professional youth coaching – but in Sandi I’ve found a reliable, solid and “the real deal” resource based on a scientific background and her long-term experience in working with youth.

In short, Sandi is an incredible resource and expert in youth work that I’d recommend to anybody as the first choice when having questions and needing guidance about working with youth!”

“I listed Sandi as a Career Coach, but she actually helped me as a life coach. This coaching helped me in my career as well as my personal life. I think the biggest lesson she taught me is that I am in control of my life and can find answers to any questions with the right reflection and a little imagination. She led me to the answers by asking the right questions that helped me learn to think through things to find my own answers. So, instead of handing me solutions, she showed me a way to find them for myself. What a great experience and lesson for life! Thank you, Sandi!”

“Sandi is incredible at everything she undertakes. I’ve worked with her as a coach and as a participant in a group coaching she ran. As a result, I went out and bought my house. I’d been riding the fence for 2 years about buying and her workshop and her skill sets got me going – I couldn’t be happier. As a coach working side by side with Sandi, I’ve seen her dedication to her clients’ goals and the intent and focus she holds with the individuals she works with. A great sense of humor, loads of common sense, smarts, and intuitive as all get out. A great human being and coach. I highly recommend her.” —Cynthia ‘Cyn’ Liggett, Executive Director, Life’s Headwaters (2008)
