What My Clients Says
As an entrepreneur we face lots of obstacles. Many things we feel we can’t share to others. There’s lots of responsibilities, family affairs, business affairs, and many more that we can imagine. We are like balloons always aiming high but always get attached to rocks, so no matter how much we achieve we always feel like getting dragged down. With Coach John I felt like I can share what I feel without being judged and it made me feel lighter everytime I share my feelings. It made me realize that no matter what’s going on on the outside it needs to be solved from inside within you. I had 8 sessions with John and since then everything is same but everything from inside me have changed. All my circumstances are still same but the perspective is different. Now I feel lighter coz I understood myself. All my relations are stronger and my business is getting better. Thanks to John for removing the rocks out from my balloon. If you are entrepreneur I highly recommend John. You ll thank me later.
I joined John’s group coaching programs and experienced his 1-to-1 coaching sessions, and I was profoundly impressed by his empathic presence and thoughtful questions. He made me feel comfortable sharing my challenges without judging and created a safe space to work through those however worked best for me. He also followed my progress and effectively reminded me of my commitments to my journey and nudged me in moving forward by providing valuable feedback and support. I wholeheartedly recommend John to anyone looking for an effective coach to get unstuck, achieve their goals, and, more importantly, get into the right mindset to use your strengths to your advantage!
