I found Michael at a key point of change in my life - from a Web developer with a vision to an entrepreneur with a successful business; transitioning from a visitor to a resident of this country. His flexibility, guidance and feedback have been critical to my success as an ambitious, conscientious business partner. He brings contributions and meaningful suggestions to each meeting. During our time thus far I've tripled my business revenue–despite the recession–through clarity of vision and purpose, while I've personally tackled nagging bad habits and challenges such as organization, delegation and, currently, public speaking.

Michael is a great business coach, a great personal coach and a great citizen of the planet.

I would say that Michael’s coaching proffers ruthless compassion to work on a staggering range of personal goals and aspirations. We went into the depths of my being and wrestled over an extended period with old, crusty habits and built new strategies and, better yet, new ways of being that are more firmly rooted in the present.

Michael has a very strong, responsive instinct to what's happening in the moment. We have fun in the process, but by the end I have a clear sense of what I've been able to learn and where I need to go with it. Michael’s sword cuts swiftly through the tangle of useless thoughts and rationale with which I can so easily stall progress.

Michael helped me transition from one career to another with all the attendant issues – doubt, self confidence, envisioning future possibilities, self image and gaining and then holding my power differently. I've been offered perspectives I had not thought about, ways to consider issues, problems and events in a new, fresh way. Michael champions the truest, clearest part of me, and through our work helps me strengthen those qualities.
