Coaching with Ricki helped me replace thinking, ‘I’d like that job some day,’ with action, making me that person right now.

Chief Marketing Officer, Professional Services Firm
I got ’empowered’. Really. I hate that word, but Ricki gave me the confidence to move forward…
Serial Entrepreneur, repeat client
I call it magic because during a “stuck” mode it’s hard to believe that movement can happen. Also, because it’s hard to believe that 30 minutes of a phone conversation can lead to action. But it does.

I especially value Ricki’s approach — the right balance between being structured and directed toward the goal, while at the same time remaining very open and flexible. We achieved positive results in the short term in an unexpected direction and have kept the long term goal in sharp focus.
Financial Services Professional
I had a lot of decisions to make regarding my career and my life when I first met with Ricki. I thought I might want to start looking for a new job. Coaching with Ricki has been action-oriented, and makes me feel motivated….Surprisingly, I didn’t leave my job — I created the job I wanted right where I was.And now I work out regularly, make time for meditation, and have a more balanced view about everything.

Ricki provides a safe environment where I know I can explore all aspects of the decisions and choices I am facing, keeping sight of professional objectives and aspirations while keeping personal fulfillment front and center…And it’s fun!
Media Executive
I wanted more clarity around my career direction and knew I’d need someone to keep me on track. Ricki gave me action items each week to help me figure out my own values and career objectives. Through coaching, I achieved a practice,a readiness, and the confidence to make big changes — which for me meant leaving large corporate America.
