Dear Sharon,

My company's Senior Executives participated in the full day session for employee wellness offered by your company called Emotional Fitness.

I couldn't have been more pleased with the results. My executives returned to work and reported how much they enjoyed the program; their individual participant comments were that they would like more of Emotional Fitness. That in itself is a testimonial.

The value to my company is to continue with the strong alignment that I have built into this team. To have team spirit reinforced and directed forward is essential. When my team is well; productivity, teamwork and focus are evident. If this training were a target then Bootstraps Lifeskills hit a bull's-eye.

Yours Sincerely,
Dan Urbani, President, Petcetera


From Marketing Manager to Director of Marketing to Vice President - all in just 15 months! It was a tough climb but we did it and although there were some days when I thought I couldn't do it anymore, a quick phone call to you would always put things back into perspective and give the courage to once again "move forward". I can't thank you enough for that!
You were my first "personal coaching" experience and your tenderness in understanding and listening to "my stuff" was amazing. The level of comfort that I experienced while sharing my struggles made me want to just curl up in a big comfortable chair and chat with you forever! You challenged me too, and although sometime I wasn't as open to that at the time, I would always take what you said and realize that it was excellent advice and you were (gasp) right!
I highly recommend you as a personal coach to anyone. I have emerged a better person with a clear vision of whom I am and where I am going because of our time together.
DW, Vice President Provincial. Government Corporation

As I went through a divorce, I was living in a basement suite, hated my job and was faced with many challenges. Through Sharon's coaching I was able to deal effectively with many issues which included completing my relationship with compassion and integrity. Sharon was also instrumental in me rehabilitating my passions in life. I now live in a penthouse suite, have my dream job & have doubled my salary! Having had such great results, I decided to take on my dream of traveling the world. Because of Sharon's encouragement, I have now been to 5 countries and work paid for it!

Before my personal coaching with Sharon I felt desperate and without any energy to keep going. I was scared…I couldn't imagine how my family would work if I failed. Sharon helped me find hope and trust again. She taught me how to relax and leave negative energy behind. I started to trust myself more. I encourage anyone sitting on the fence that would benefit by Sharon's coaching, to meet with her. I did it and I am grateful to her for teaching me how to handle " fear of failure".
GM, Radiologist

After 16 yrs. with a company I thoroughly enjoyed, I found myself unemployed <layoff>. What I didn't know was the difficulty I would experience.

My experience with Sharon was an eye opener. Her skills, techniques and sense of humor put me on track with finding the job that was right for me. Sharon showed me how to unveil the confidence I needed, rehearsed me through pseudo interviews, helped me release the untapped resources I knew I had and made me feel at ease with myself. The feedback I received from my next interview was that "I wowed them". I was on top of the world again. Not only was I good enough, I was better.
I encourage anyone seeking success in any area of life to find a coach to help him or her realize their dreams or set goals. Sharon has the talent, skill, commitment and humor to help. Sharon turned my experience into one of enjoyment. I can't thank her enough!
DU Operations Manager, Aerospace

She demonstrates a genuine interest in other people, a desire to help them and a skill in motivating them; a generosity of spirit in giving to others. An unusual quick insight into the heart of a problem and creativity in problem solving: a patient, caring attitude toward everyone balanced by a sense of fairness and a view of the long-term consequences of any action: respect for others' right to self determination'.
LV, Coordinator of Mental Health Programs

Sharon offered me emotional support and encouragement during a time when I lost my partner and was suffering from grief. Helping me put into place the coping mechanisms necessary to carry on.
Soon after, I changed careers to join a small company that required reorganization to achieve its goals of success and prominence. Sharon paid attention to details; she listened carefully to details of the company's history, structure and personnel. She asked leading and pertinent questions designed with a purpose of quickly identifying problem areas. She defined areas upon which to focus, how to address the needs of personnel and clearly set out methods to effectively achieve desired goals.
She identified personalities to perform certain tasks to create a more cohesive flow of work and matched tasks to function categories to best enhance not only the potential success of the business, but recognize the potential of individuals working together. Putting these techniques into practice I am starting to see how beneficial these methods have been and the company as a whole will prosper and personnel can measure their level of contribution.
KO, Executive, Financial Corporation

I have been fortunate to work with many, many coaches in my personal and professional life. Some are good, and some are fantastic. Sharon falls into the fantastic category! She is one of those rare people you run into who you know was a born to be a coach.
Sharon's insightful questions and wisdom help me to keep right on track, being powerful and successful in my commitment and goals at home and at work. I highly recommend Sharon to anyone seeking a personal coach.

Sharon is an amazing coach. She helped me to reach personal goals I thought would never happen; like marrying the man of my dreams! I really like the way she interacted with me, and always knew the perfect thing to say.
