Testimonials

PictureJanet McIntyre, ML, CPCC
I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Michael in two different capacities and I look forward to more. As my coach, he was/is remarkable. At each coaching session, I would tell him, "damn, you're good." And I'm a coach too, so I know when I see good, and he's excellent. He knew exactly how to temper his questions and hold the space in a respectful, sensitive way to bring out my confidence in developing my leadership stories. As a result, I'm now exercising my storytelling muscle in a way I didn't know was possible. I also hired Michael to facilitate a fun, informative, interactive training for development professionals in one of the programs I oversee at Executive Service Corps and everyone loved him and the workshop. He's the real deal.

Michael is an alchemist, from helping transform your life narrative into a business mission statement to turning a personal challenge into a platform for growth. After every conversation with Michael I walk away wiser, and his healing practices are immensely valuable and full of practical compassion.

Michael understands the power of story and is driven to help you find and craft yours as he did for me and my organization. I was referred to Michael for his coaching and by our second session, I had increased clarity and confidence in my work. I credit his one of a kind coaching for my success in pitching and fundraising. I have since hired him to lead several workshops on story telling and public speaking, but its clear he gave the audience so much more.
