Client Testimonials
“Today was like therapy on steroids!” T.R.E. CEO, New York
“I was connected to Daniela through a leadership development program. She taught me first hand what it means to be a coach, and how to help others. How to manage self talk. How to lead people to chart their own course and find their own answers. The guidance and support I received through my relationship with Daniela has helped me not just as a manager and leader, but as a person. Some interactions with people are transient, some are transformative. Engage with Daniela to close the gap between your aspirations and accomplishments.” R. B. VP Marketing (Banking Industry), California
“I’ve worked with Dany at points in my career when I needed a outside perspective who could cut quickly to the essence and think strategically. In each case her insights & mentorship have been extraordinarily powerful and continue to have impact years out. I firmly believe in Dany’s coaching as an essential ingredient for anyone actively managing their professional career, or thoughtful about their impact in the world.” C. B. Product Team Leader, California
“Daniela is an incredible Executive Coach, and has provided invaluable guidance in both the high level Strategic perspective of business management, as well as the day-to-day tactical execution of tasks when it comes to running a large-scale organization. Most leaders assume that a thorough Coach is unnecessary in business, but I couldn’t disagree more. Did Michael Jordan ever perform without a Coach? Mike Tyson? Lebron James? Wayne Gretzky? Michael Phelps? All of them had world class coaches in order to improve every day, and Daniela has continuously shown the utmost value to refine and improve my skills as a leader across the board.” A. B. VP (Gaming Industry), California
“Dany’s ability to establish and maintain focus is extraordinary, but it is her remarkable insight for discovering what needs to be focused upon that is her genius. Within moments she was taking me on a journey to precisely where I needed to go, and once there, her acute intelligence and her encouraging spirit gave me the clarity and sense of purpose that set me on my way. She is a joy to work with.” R. C. Founder and Principal (Fundraising), California
“Dany’s approach to coaching had a significant impact on one member of my marketing team. Her vast and diverse professional experiences enable Dany to understand the individual’s opportunities for development and focus them on enhancing their skills. Even a year later, the lessons learned from Dany are still being used today. Definitely worth the investment.” K.M. CEO (Software Industry), Utah
“All aspects of coaching have been fantastic. Daniela is responsive, thorough, very communicative and has helped immensely in building my leadership capabilities.” A. B. VP (Entertainment Industry), California
“Dany’s been an excellent resource and sounding board for many tough decisions as well as an objective barometer to gauge progress and maintain focus. She’s made a marked contribution to my effectiveness.” E.C. CEO Advisor (Virtual Security), California
“Daniela is an exceptional consultant and her equally exceptional network that she brings to the table are invaluable. I have been a manager for 15 years of various Banking institutions and have not seen a better team of experts to assist in a company’s development.” L. S. Executive Vice President (Financial Services), California
“Over the past year I have had the privilege of working with Daniela as a participant in the Bridge Bank Leadership program. I am continually awed and impressed with her broad range of experience and expertise. She is a consummate professional and has brought to the program perspective, insight and the highest level ethical standards. It has been the greatest pleasure working with her.” C.F.

“Dany is simply great. Thought-provoking, joyful, full of life, she’s a wonderful coach to guide her clients through business and personal issues, helping us keep objectivity while at the same time asking the questions that will lead us to the actionable answers. I have coached with her for several years now and highly recommend her for anyone that wants to accomplish his or her goals today instead of waiting for what tomorrow will bring.” E.S. Director (Credit Card Services), Florida
“I hired Dany twice to guide me through major career changes. After earning my dream job both times, I stayed on with her after the transition, most recently for two consecutive years. For over five years, she has helped me build my career.
What I like about Dany’s approach is that although I hired her to help me with a career-related goal, she really helped me understand how the other areas of my life would need to be in order for me to achieve my goal and enjoy my results. This wasn’t easy for me!
I particularly liked the annual inventory we would take and the quarterly goals we would set and check in on. She’s an absolute professional- constantly attending workshops and sharing reading- even her newsletter is worth reading. She has really been a partner in my success for the past five years and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!
If you are evaluating hiring a coach, Dany should be at the top of your list. We did almost all of our coaching over the phone, so she would be an excellent choice no matter where you are located.” G. H. (Social Networking Company) Manager, California
“Dany is the best thing since sliced bread. She keeps me on track and sane and I don’t know what I would do without her. We grew up with sports coaches, why not a career coach?” J.L. (Automotive Industry), Manager New York
“As a reflection of the value each board member found in the session, each member committed to making a donation. It was apparent by the end that you really helped each board member feel more confident, engaged, clear on priorities, focused, organized, and supported. And you nailed the top items that we both really wanted to accomplish with this meeting – board subcommittees, regular meetings, engagement with the mission – while making buy-in to those a natural and effortless part of the process.” L.K., Non-Profit Board Member, Aptos, California
“Dany’s been an excellent resource and sounding board for many tough decisions as well as an objective barometer to gauge progress and maintain focus. She’s made a marked contribution to my effectiveness.” E.C. CEO Advisor (Virtual Security), California
“Dany’s coaching was a breath of fresh air for listening and brought out my passion for nature so I wasn’t just going through the motions; and a call to action for evoking insight to act effectively. She made sustainability not about obligation or fear but inspiration, meaning, and heart.” Joshua Spodek, host of the award-winning podcast ‘This Sustainable Life’, New York
