I stumbled upon Annie and New York Life Coaching during a pivotal moment, seeking guidance as my first life coach. My previous approaches, both personally and professionally, weren’t yielding results. So I turned to a professional life coach for honest, expert support. Having been with my employer for 15 years without career advancement, and facing family challenges, I questioned my leadership and communication skills. Annie recognized patterns and offered constructive feedback. Through introspection and effort, I realized many issues stemmed from my own thoughts. She guided me to shift my mindset, journal my goals and emotions, and practice self-compassion. After three months of coaching, though I hadn’t secured a new job yet, I honed my interview skills, expanded my professional network, and kept receiving promising job prospects. The takeaway: steer clear of fixed timelines and remain receptive to signs. This journey reminded me of my contributions and worth, overcoming fears to grow and find joy. Annie’s coaching encouraged finding wisdom in every experience, staying neutral, and embracing each day and person, even if outcomes differ from expectations. Annie, thank you for your time and service. Your patience and wisdom have unlocked opportunities. I’m forever grateful for our time together.
