Stop saying yes

After working with Amber, I’m able to be more honest with myself and remove unnecessary guilt because I realized that no one else can MAKE me feel guilty. I realized that I had the power to make changes in my life for the better and it didn’t matter how others might react or see me when I know it’s a good decision for me. Amber helped me think outside of the box of thinking I had created for myself. Even when I thought I didn’t have options, I always had options. That was empowering! I love how Amber cuts through to the core of things. She’s honest and doesn’t tip toe around to get to the real issue at hand. It’s exceptionally refreshing, efficient, and powerful.

Prior to working with Amber, I felt overwhelmed, scattered, non-productive, unmotivated, ashamed, hopeless, and helpless. In the 3 plus months Amber has coached me she has helped me to find new ways to deal with stress, better organize my life, and most importantly not criticize myself so much. One of the things that I love best about Amber's coaching strategies is she encourages me to be my own best advocate, and not shaming myself into change. I have learned so much in just a short few months with working with Amber, and really like realizing how important it is to enjoy the journey rather than the destination.

Alcohol and overdrinking had become a "normal" in my life. As detrimental as my decision making was proving to be, I wasn't sure how to get myself unstuck. Being taught how to think healthily is such a new and profound idea, as simple as it seems when I say it out loud. Worksheets and journals aided in the process and in complementing the face time I have with Amber. Over the course of 6 months I have rediscovered my suppressed passions, my hidden talents and my genuine self. I've come to realize what I am capable of and who I can count on to support me, as well as learning how to support others. While I've lost relationships that proved to be toxic, I've gained a quality of life that is sustainable, fruitful, happy and authentic.
