A strong understanding of working and growing in organizations
"Martha has worked with me for over 6 months during a time of significant personal and professional change and growth. Her clarity, focus, and intelligence have been evident throughout. She has a strong understanding of the challenges of working and growing in organizations, and combines that with ability to work with a client to stay in balance with the rest of their lives. She has always "shown up" in the coaching process with on-target questions, clear reflections, and humor.  I have referred friends and colleagues to her that have also benefited from her work with them."

I will achieve far more than even I can imagine
Starting a business is really scary for some people (me!), and Martha helps me believe that not only are my dreams possible, but that I will achieve far more than even I can imagine right now. I really appreciate her use of humor, which helps to dissipate the fear.

Taught me the power of choosing my thoughts
Martha is quick, creative, insightful and nurturing; she’s a natural coach. She has helped me become an observer of my innermost thoughts – how I form them and how I handle them. She’s taught me the power of choosing my thoughts, and continues to offer practical tools for my ongoing quest to live a more productive, positive life. I value her guidance and I’m grateful for her encouragement.

It was coaching that made all the difference
"I've gone through a lot of challenges in the past year. I was able to treat those as stepping stones instead of road blocks, and it was coaching that made all the difference. Martha has a wonderful ability to bring fresh ideas to a situation, which continually helps you look at things in a new way. She is fun to work with, she makes me feel comfortable and challenges me all at the same time."

Having a coach for your life -- what a concept!
"Life coaching with Martha has been a positive, useful experience. My life has undergone numerous significant changes since the sessions began 8 months ago.  During this period Martha has helped me realize that achieving progress in one area would often have an unexpected, positive effect on other fronts (such as with personal finances and relationship matters).  She also showed me how to apply winning strategies from one category to areas where I was otherwise stuck. Martha is particularly skilled at detecting and digging out emotions from key words and phrases. Our talks have always been upbeat, spirited and free flowing. 

Having a coach for your life—what a concept!  I would absolutely recommend this approach for self-improvement, or just to organize and prioritize ones thoughts.  Martha genuinely seems to enjoy providing this help, and does so thoughtfully and with care."

Corny as it sounds, coaching is helping me achieve my dreams
"I am a great believer in 'Life brings you everything you need' and it sure did when I began coaching with Martha. I was at a stage in my life where I needed some help and support and after years of therapy knew that was not it. I didn't want to know why I was the way I was, I wanted practical help in changing certain behaviours and ways of being. Martha is a wonderful guide and has helped me to greatly improve the quality of my life. In particular, she helped me negotiate a new job offer that doubled my salary.

I love my coaching sessions. Martha keeps me focused on my goals, stops me from getting lost in the minutiae of my life and corny as it sounds, is helping me to achieve my dreams."
