I have had the pleasure of working with Rachel for several years and found her to be a strong partner who brings a streak of creativity and fresh thinking that helps me to shift my perspective as her client, particularly when I'm dealing with a tough decision.

-Tracy Groove, Executive Coach, Speaker, Author

“Rachel has the rare ability as a coach to empower her clients to set and reach their own goals. She is always present and available for guidance, but wise and experienced enough to know when to step back, and let her clients uncover answers 100% on their own. In my recent successful job search, I credit Rachel with challenging me to brainstorm and problem solve, and with encouraging me to find the never easy path towards improvement and change!”

-Jill Clateman, Learning Consultant

“I've worked with Rachel for the past several years while evolving my organization. Her insightful and strategic use of organizational development and coaching tools and methods have been critical in helping me and my staff tear down roadblocks, whether personal or institutional, to achieve the vision we set for our success.

“Working with Rachel as an Executive Coach was transformative for me. She brought tools and research to our coaching sessions that led me to personal growth and insights that have changed how I approach my work at both a tactical and a strategic level. What set Rachel apart was her ability to meet me where my needs were. It wasn't a rote program that she was stepping me through. When needed in a session we would step off the paved path of my strategic goals and tackle a specific problem I was facing. Her ability to unblock, guide, and help me move forward against my goals encapsulated exactly what I look for in a coach.”

-Jessica Popp, Vice President, Engineering at Twilio Inc

“Rachel’s approach to coaching has been the most important and valuable component to transformational change in my life both professionally and personally. I cannot imagine where I would be if I had not had the opportunity to work with Rachel on my professional leadership skills. I was struggling with an employee who was an extremely high performer, very intelligent and surfacing disrespect and bullying issues. I was at a point where I was considering leaving my current position and career that I had held for about 10 years. Over the course of approximately 6 coaching sessions and some outside reading and work, I was able to re-claim my authority, decide how I was going to show up to difficult situations and create the type of work environment that I wanted. My difficult employee ultimately decided it was time for her to move on to a different line of work. Rachel has my upmost confidence and trust. I value her insight, instinct and intelligence. I have spent plenty of time and energy on other types of coaching and therapy with a fraction of the results that Rachel's coaching has provided me. Hands down, Rachel is the best coach and confidant I have had. I look forward to the opportunity to consult her for the duration of my career and life.”

-Scott Narreau, State of Colorado, Program Leader

“Rachel is a fantastic coach who brings great enthusiasm and expertise to the role. She has a wonderful ability to focus in on a client during a session and help the client narrow in on what is important to the client and the organization and how best to achieve those results. She was truly instrumental in helping me develop my skills as a brand new supervisor and leader within my organization. She provided an invaluable service by helping me to adjust the way in which I analyze situations that arise within my organization, their impact, and the possible outcomes, and provided incredibly useful tools which I take with me every day into my work and life environments. My work with Rachel has also strengthened my leadership skills by making me a more effective coach to my staff, ultimately helping to move the organization toward an open environment of learning and progress in genuinely difficult situations. This has made us a much stronger team that is able to embrace necessary progress and helped us to accomplish key goals as an agency. I would highly recommend Rachel to any organization that is genuinely interested in fostering leaders and promoting a healthy work environment with a staff that is committed to achieving shared goals.”
