Sometimes it can be helpful to hear other people’s experiences to determine whether something is right for you or not. Here are some stories told and written by past clients describing what it was like to work with me, and what they achieved in our work together.
To be willing to publicly share one’s coaching experience is an act of courage and generosity. I’m honored to have encountered these amazing humans.
Eddie helped me discover insights I never could have imagined or planned to discover. In the end I always feel confident because now I understand more. Everytime, I prove to myself how important it is to do this work. During our sessions I can always expect non-judgement, invitations to go deeper, and laughter. He pays attention to everything that I say and the way I say it. It’s the opposite of how people often talk to each other without actually listening.
After a session with Eddie, I felt more clear about my vision, but more importantly, I had a more emotional and resonant relationship with my vision. In 60 minutes with Eddie, I shifted to be able to see the true shape of my desires. Eddie created a cozy, safe space to explore my feelings and desires. He creates that space with his thoughtful line of questions, laser-tuned listening skills, and sincere investment in the creative life he’s coaching.
A lot of the things Eddie did worked so well for me. He has this calming energy that creates a space for me to be vulnerable and open without any judgment. I have a deep trust and respect for Eddie, and I come to each session believing I will walk out of it with something that will help me on my journey.
Eddie challenged my self-imposed doubts and worries that stopped me from pursuing the career I was interested in. He really cut to the heart of the matter and within our first hour together I was able to sidestep my mental barriers into the right direction. It was exactly what I wanted to do. Eddie helped me admit to it and then commit to it.
I'm much better at observing myself. I'm clearly taking action on things I never would have before. I am getting out of my head and more into my gut and my heart. I know myself so much better. I'm listening to myself and being kinder to me and those around me. I'm making better decisions. I feel more confident. I understand my path and purpose better. I'm sold on coaching as a permanent part of my journey. I feel wholly improved. I feel more capable of knowing when I'm dealing with an issue, and how to take stock.
Eddie is grounded, honest, and very thoughtful – so I always feel like I'm learning from our interactions in some way. The sessions felt focused and directed. Eddie helped me figure out how to have candid conversations with my manager around getting a promotion, and more importantly, helped me feel like I deserved it, which I think was a big driver for why it eventually happened.
Through working with Eddie for 3 months, I was able to review and adjust aspects of my relationships to the closest people in my life and in my relationship to work. I was able to humanize aspects of myself that I didn't know how to approach before and address these different thought patterns that weren't really working for me.
When I met Eddie, I was desperately tired and disillusioned at work, anxious about the future and the present. I wanted to figure out the next steps in my life and have some idea of direction: to become unstuck.
I wasn’t sure if Eddie was the right fit and was very glad for the initial session without fee. Right after I signed up, I felt hopeful but also a little scared.
When considering coaching with Eddie, I hesitated at the price, which felt fair, but was still a lot of money to spend. I felt my problem was very specific and contextual, so I wondered if coaching would still be helpful if the problem were to go away before the coaching sessions ended.
I understood that coaching would be more big picture, but it was hard to imagine what that would look like before doing it. It was a leap of faith to commit to doing it.
I started working with Eddie when a personal life-changing event forced me to assess my own self beyond that of my career. I was in a phase of "fogginess" that I needed clarity with.
At first I was concerned that I would treat coaching like a job, only one that I paid to do. And I was unsure I would come out of it with actionable next steps.
