Client Testimonials

“To be honest when I started the coaching process I did not believe It was for me. But I was very surprised that it gave a different optic of the situations and was able to see and find solutions that I did not know where available. I don´t feel stuck anymore and I feel able to recognize in me my own beliefs and obstacles and as a consequence become a better leader.”

— Nicolás

“I had the opportunity to work with Silvia on issues related to my leadership style and stress management. I believe that through our conversations I was able to define what kind of leader I want to be and at the same time identify specific actions to achieve this goal. I had poor management of stress skills that were was affecting my health and relationships, by spending time getting to understand myself and my priorities, I was able to implement different strategies and as a result I now live a fuller life and more importantly a healthy life. Silvia is a keen listener and was able to ask the right questions and the right time, I believe this quality its what makes her a great coach.”

— Diana

“My coaching process with Silvia was eye opening. I discovered several issues that I had not been able to describe or even name them. These were issues that I thought I had resolved and found out that I needed to keep exploring.
I am in a great place I feel balance and satisfaction with my life. I am giving myself permission to be different and enjoy what comes my way.”
