Desiree is a trainer at our corporate HQ in Sunnyvale. This review represents the combined…read moreopinions and contributions from several of our employees. Desiree is an awesome trainer. She is very knowledgeable and focuses a lot on correct form vs just pounding out reps. She pays attention to both the group and individual persons and tailors the workout to fit where they are at (vs blindly following a strict regimen). Her workouts are always hard and effective, and generally combine a focus on a specific muscle group with an overall full body workout. In addition to her technical skills, she is fun, is a great motivator, and provides encouraging support. Desiree goes out of her way to call out individual successes and encourage additional effort to push the limits of each athlete. She is always trying new techniques to motivate our class, including bringing and handing out a trophy each week to the athlete who she feels worked the hardest in that particular class.

I am nearing 40, a single mom to three girls, and feel I have many life experiences which have…read morehelped me evolve into a better person. My expectations for a life coach is quite high since I basically coach myself a lot. But always setting goals for myself both professionally and spiritually, I thought hiring a life coach would be a great benefit to my journey. When I first heard about Desiree through a mutual friend, I was hesitant. I thought to myself, "what can she teach me that I don't already know?" Well to answer that question, (for me that is) not much (notice, I'm a pretty arrogant know-it-all)...it wasn't more so what she taught me but my experience with her that was life-changing. And the little that she did teach me, was the simplest of information but the most powerful that was necessary. She's a breath of fresh air. She's the strong powerful woman with a soft empathetic nature. She exudes positivity which in return makes you want to emulate. She provides feedback you already know but don't want to hear. She makes you face your demons in the most supportive, comfortable, and safest way, as well as, cultivating dreams you wish to pursue and finding break throughs on how to get started. What Desiree does, is fill you with passion to break through these barriers holding you back. My answers were always inside of me the whole time. She just encouraged me to lead with love and to let go of fear and find my answers. After every meeting, I always felt rejuvenated and fearless. I am forever grateful for her spiritual maturity and professionalism. She has shared with me her light that is priceless and for that I thank you Desiree. Sending you much love and light on your journey. And kudos to you for being such a great force in this world!

Laura is an incredibly gifted spiritual healer who has tremendous heart and presence. As a…read morepsychotherapist, it's important for me to have a spiritual healer who can skillfully work with both physical and emotional energies inside the body. Laura was able to sense where I was holding emotional and physical pain inside of my body and facilitate a gentle release. After our session I felt much less pain. Laura is highly intuitive and will be a great support for your healing journey. Amanda Case, LCSW,SAC

I am unsure how I can possibly put into words how thankful I am for Laura. Instead I will write…read moreabout her skill and professionalism. In doing so, I hope to convey how unique of a person she is and how truly helpful she can be. I've seen Laura in group settings of about 10 people and in a triad group with me and my spouse. In both, she is astoundingly adept at keeping everyone's focus on her and also in giving each person her full attention. Her ability to touch and relate to each person's story is remarkable and I believe that her true gift is in storytelling - she helps you read your story so that you are able to write an ending that you are proud of. And that's the thing, you feel like you are - FINALLY- in control of your story. She doesn't overwhelm, but she does (in her words) "push you to your edge." She is a gift. The group setting was for A New Way of No-ing for Women and as it was my first time being in a workshop of that nature, I didn't know what to expect. I definitely didn't expect to feel such depths of compassion, knowledge of one's self, and a certainty in owning my feelings. That workshop really delivered it for me. I knew that I had to see her with my husband. My hubby and I, I think like most couples, struggle to express our love in the balance of taking care of daily life (e.g., kids, groceries, pets, work). But there is a strength to being able to recognize that and to acknowledge that change is necessary. One session with Laura was all it took for me and hubby to feel closer to each other. Like my hubby said, "she's (Laura) unorthodox but really effective." We are so grateful to her. I hesitate to specify who should go see her because I think anyone would benefit from working with her. But because of the impact she had on my relationship with my husband, I would strongly urge anyone (man or woman) to seek her help if you feel like the story you have with your partner needs a new chapter.

I am grateful for the coaching opportunity I had with Brittany this past year. I didn't know what…read morewas in store when I first contacted her, but since my manager had wanted me to try out career coaching, and a friend referred me to her, I thought "why not!" We had 12 super valuable sessions. We were able to joke around and still make progress. She's a great person. Depending on your need, she's able to tailor the sessions to you, which is fantastic. Because I didn't know what do or expect, I said we could wing it, and we did. We were able to make great strides that will not only benefit me professionally, but also personally. I plan on using her services every so often as things in my professional and personal life change, since having a great sync on those two are important to me. I can't say enough good things about Brittany. Every opportunity I get, I refer her services. If you're reading this review, just go for it. You won't regret it. PRO: You can live anywhere and still meet with her. She is able to do video chat or phone sessions.

She has coached me countless times on personal and professional matters, so many times in fact that I've made several hugely empowering and healing life decisions with her help. I feel fortunate to have met her before she ends up on Oprah and has a 20 year waiting list-- Brittany, I literally couldn't imagine my life without you. I will be eternally grateful, thank goodness I didn't get married before working with you! P.S. she is HILARIOUS. Prepare yourself for tear inducing laughter if you want the full Brittany comedy experience, I don't think she charges extra yet for that but she should.

I never knew that integrative nutrition included not just what you ate and your physical health, and Melissa did an incredible job of educating me on this, which reframed the way I think about health into a really great way! I had been struggling with my eating patterns, exercise and weight, career changes, relationships, and felt a lot of shifts in life since the COVID-19 pandemic as well. It was A LOT to manage. What I love about Melissa is that she helped me realize how much all of these aspects of my life start with my mind- this has positively impacted other areas of my life that I didn't necessarily think I needed support with. I am starting to navigate challenges differently! She has helped me improve my mental health significantly in ways I didn't know I needed, which improved my gut health and my weight is more stabilized! I feel heard, I feel safe in sharing with her, she is personable and shares her own stories, and I feel like possibility is not so out of reach when I have sessions with her. HIRE HER. Everyone should have a personal integrative nutrition coach added to their go-to panel of wellness professionals for their health and wellness, and having Melissa on your "team" is an absolute GAME CHANGER. Thank you for all you've done for me!

I've actually started calling Liz "the author whisperer." She has a gentle, intuitive and yet skilled approach that is the perfect support for my vision and goals. Liz is also a motivator, although not in the pumped-up, rah! rah! style of so many motivational experts. Instead, she helps me tap my own deep reservoir of self-motivation. This is a lasting gift for which I am forever grateful. The result of all of this is that I now have an unwavering daily writing practice and am moving rapidly toward my goal of an ongoing series of books. Liz helps dreams come true!

Among other things, I was insecure that I could price my products and services at a higher rate. Liz is a generous and intuitive listener. She was great at getting to the heart of my issues, empathizing and showing incredible support and enthusiasm.

She used some really interesting and fun techniques that had me embodying an entirely different perspective. Think what she could do given more time! Bottom line: Liz's coaching is a fantastic value given the long-term results.

I would highly recommend Nina as a therapist to anyone who seeks therapeutic/intuitive guidance, who seeks to better understand himself vis-a-vis others, or who seeks a sharp mind to help dissect complex and troubling issues.
