Polly, without warning, you stepped right up to a barrage of unorganized thoughts and impressions, waded through and somehow reflected insightful understanding and suggestions with a positive attitude and humor! I sincerely appreciate the time and listening skills you gifted me with Tuesday afternoon. Your ability to create a sense of validation, even over the phone, helped open up new ideas, reinforce different threads and invited me to hold a more patient, nurturing space for myself in this process.

Polly gives the independent perspective necessary for personal reflection and improvement. She not only facilitates the imperative dynamics to start the process of change, but she provides some of the most catalytic components during the changing process. Her dialogue and questions hit the mark every time with a rare sense of depth, care and timing. Just as important, Polly is in for the long haul with her unparalleled follow through during the time of the engagement. Most of all, Polly shares the necessary tools not only for personal short-term change, but also for an individual's ability to obtain personal elasticity and growth throughout life's journey.

I was in a place that felt very confusing and provided no direction for the future. I was stuck. After my first session with Polly I started to feel some hope and excitement. I quickly came to the resolution that I needed to change the way I viewed my life and my thought processes. I was too quick to accept the 'gremlins' word for things. Coaching helped me find direction and confidence. The confidence that I found through this process came from me but was channeled through my coach, Polly. Surprisingly enough, I reached my goals in a few months and felt that I was on my way towards a different life with more flexibility and willingness to be patient.

Polly isn't satisfied with taking things or people at face value. There's always more to something or someone and she has the desire and the drive to find out as much as she can. This is an essential characteristic of a coach because she will help others dig deeper inside themselves to discover untapped reservoirs of creativity, strength and courage.

"I receive infusions of hope for the process of realizing my life purpose and absorb bits of her energetic life force that is felt as both spiritual energy and concrete, common sense 'Aha' moments. She has a talent for drawing out the essence of who I am, and turning it around so I can examine it. Her 'out-of-the-box' ability to process thoughts, emotions, and actions creates a connection that will not easily be forgotten..."

I called Polly when my kitchen reached 'critical mass!' My kitchen table and counters were a catch-all for bills, keys, letters, books, magazine....overflowing and embarassing. Polly's visits helped me dig out of the mess. More importantly, she showed me some ways to avoid having it happen again. Now, when I start seeing stuff accumulate again, I stop, and use the methods Polly taught me. It's a great feeling to be in control of things, rather than them controlling me!
