Working with Marilyn was undoubtedly the smartest thing I’ve ever done. Serendipitously, a HUGE life decision landed in my lap just as we started our coaching sessions. Marilyn helped me recognize some underlying fears and how they were getting in my way. I have always considered myself to be confident with an ability to make quick and decisive decisions. In this instance I seemed to have lost all my confidence and was completely unhinged with my inability to choose a path. When we started out I was worried my emotions would spill over, which they did, but Marilyn always provided a safe space to share. Making tough decisions and moving to a “better place” is hard work and admittedly I found the process a bit exhausting. Marilyn never left me without filling back up my reserves. In addition to assisting me with this important decision Marilyn also left me with a better understanding of who I am and what’s truly important to me.

Marilyn is extremely well read and would quickly and easily reference some of the world's best authors/thinkers to allow me to consider their words, as they pertained to me. I so appreciated this because one could literally spend a lifetime reading inspirational self help books. I do believe Marilyn has done this and working with her was like having a library at your fingertips along with the knowledge of what important teachings each author might provide.  

Never forceful but always direct, Marilyn helped me get to a decision. She left an indelible mark on me which has translated to my life and the people most important to me.
