Interactive, informative presentation

Elizabeth came to the ELC as a referral. We initially had her speak to 60 of our contracted childcare providers on business success and she did such a great job engaging the crowd; we invited her back to provide training to our employees! They loved her interactive, informative presentation on using the Myers-Briggs to enhance communication. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

Helped bolster our productivity, teamwork, & work-life balance

Although our organization has contracted several expert guest speakers in the past, no one has tailored the program to our unique needs or offered such an intentional, thought-out message as exceptionally as Elizabeth.

She challenged me to move out of my comfort zone

If you are looking for a coach, look no further than Elizabeth. I had known her for 7 years and when I was ready to start my consulting business, I couldn’t imagine hiring anyone else.

She helped me identify and

I was astounded at the results of my journey

Elizabeth is the real deal. I was astounded at the results of my journey. First, the session answered a deep question inside of me that I had never spoken aloud.
