"Working with Heather was a delight! A supportive and encouraging coach, she guided me through every step of the process. I couldn’t believe how quickly the sessions flew by. Each week, Heather offered me a new set of tools that I could apply immediately, and then shelve for future reference. The web format allowed us to connect across time zones, create visual charts in real time and share videos and files from each session.  Like a new hiking trail – the journey was full of unexpected delights! This was a transformational opportunity, which allowed me to put aside my focus on others and commit time and attention to exploring my next chapter. By addressing the past, present and future, the SHIFT-IT process illuminated new possibilities I had not considered. Best of all, it helped me create a clear action plan for moving forward. I would highly encourage you to make this worthwhile investment in yourself. "

"Working with Heather was instrumental in my shift into a new consulting business and less stressful lifestyle. Heather has a depth of experience and a passion for the SHIFT-IT coaching program. I found her style, attention to detail, and probing questions really key for me to begin shifting my mindset to where it needs to be. Since finishing the coaching program I have solidified my thriving new consulting business, am currently setting boundaries with work and taking better care of myself and those I love, and daring to try new things just for the fun of it. If you want to make some major changes in your life and you don't know where to start Heather can really help you get there. "

"Every time I work with Heather I leave completely inspired, with a clear path for achieving my goals laid out in front of me. She asks the right questions to help identify values, clarify dreams, set measurable goals, and then creates a clear, step-by-step guide to execute them. Heather's process has a way of making even the biggest dream feel totally attainable, and her knowledge and resource base are limitless. I can't say enough about how effective a session is in taking you from where you are to where you want to be. I have utilized her coaching sessions for my art career for ten years, and can easily see the direct results of working with her every time I achieve another success."
