“Mary has been a coach and confidant to me for over a year. I honestly can't put into words how lucky I feel to have Mary to turn to in times of need. Mary shares insight without punishing, shaming or blaming. She truly listens to me in a time of need. When I'm coached by Mary I never have to "wonder" if she is present in the moment. Her full attention is with me in the time we share. I'm truly grateful for continued coaching in this thing we call "life". Through practice, and continued coaching I know this ‘life’ can be amazing.”

"Working with Mary has vastly improved my life. Her coaching style is straightforward and compassionate, and the skills and lessons I've learned are easily applicable in everyday scenarios. She's taught me how to live a healthier and more balanced life; with increased self-confidence, living with integrity, using assertive communication with others, and letting go of things that aren't in my control. I'm grateful for everything she's offered to me!"
