What I have loved about Danette's coaching style has been the balance she finds between helping you navigate the comfortable and uncomfortable zones to help you make decisions and reach your best outcomes. She has been my champion and cheerleader and also my challenger. She has helped me to move from a 20-year career in corporate to opening my own small business.

  • "Before working with Danette, I've actually worked with a range of mentors before and honestly received various degrees of value, of connection and of support, but working with Danette has been really quite different. After each and every single call, I just feel so much clarity and so much certainty on the very next steps to take on the various projects that I'm working on. There's so much that I can say about Danette; she's clearly very experienced, having been in the industry of business for so many years, but not only that, but I genuinely get the feeling that she cares about me and my success.
