| I was about to enroll in
law school and
fulfill my parent's dream. Then I started to work with Libby who helped
me recognize that I had no interest in becoming a lawyer. Instead, I
had a great deal of passion for environmental work. Based on our work
together, I enrolled in a master's degree program in environmental
studies and landed a great "green" job. I am so glad I'm doing this
work that matters to me instead of another career that I might have
hated. |

| The videotaped rehearsals gave me crucial feedback on how
to improve my presentations skills. I went to the interview with fresh
enthusiasm and confidence. As I returned to my hotel room after the
interview, the phone was already ringing with an offer. The practice
sessions with Libby absolutely paid off and helped me nail the
interview! |

| After over 12 years with
my company, the
layoff was one of the hardest things I'd ever gone through in my life.
I was lucky to find the right person to deliver my corporate
outplacement package. I learned so much about how to market myself in
the first few weeks with Libby. She also really helped me to get over
the emotional stuff so I could move on to my new job. It helped a lot
to have her in my corner during that process. |

| Whenever I need to make a career
move, I call Libby.
We once spent over four hours on the phone when I was out of town and
had some fast decisions to make about my job. She was like my business
partner, helping me work through a lot of issues that led me to make
some important choices on how I played the hand. She has provided me
with excellent coaching strategies over the last six years that have
enabled me to stay on top of my game. |

| All I wanted was some help on my
resume. When at first
I resisted her notion that I really could write my own resume, Libby
wouldn't let me off the hook. With some coaching, formatting examples
and suggestions from her, I was able to write my own resume...and I
really like it! |

| My husband and I each
work with Libby to
map out our individual career directions. As a couple, the Life
Planning work we did with her helped us to understand each other better
and support both our work and life goals. |

| I had a very ambitious and
specific goal I
wanted to achieve in my work. So I asked Libby to help me map out a
3-year plan. We invited a few of my friends to join us at my house
where Libby led me through a "Design a Life" session. By the end of the
afternoon, I had a long range goal, strategic initiatives and lots of
action steps to start on immediately. It was so effective, I met my
3-year goal in 2 years. Next month I'm going to reassemble the group to
line up my next 3 year plan!! Way to go, Libby!! |

| I was wondering if I
should start my own business. Libby offered me critical
questions and exercises to think about to determine if I was prepared
for self employment. Thanks to Libby's coaching and nudging, I sized up
the situation, avoided making some painful and expensive mistakes, and
am now living my dream rather than wondering when my dream is going to
come true. |

| It had been 16 years
since I held a job, and
I doubted I had any skills. After working with Libby, I learned that I
have some very marketable skills, and a number of interests that I
could pursue. It wasn't easy, and it didn't happen overnight, but I did
find my way back into the work world. Libby was so supportive,
believing in and helping me develop my confidence. In a way, she helped
me to reinvent myself. And I like the new me a whole lot! |
