Carolyn’s work with Hands On Greater Portland has been transformational. She challenged us to question assumptions about who we are and what we do and has helped set us off in a clearer and more purposeful direction.
I am truly grateful for your insight, counsel, and for pointing me in the right direction. I have never been happier in my career. I have my own business, work with clients and am on retainer with a CPA firm providing consulting and recruiting services for them and their clients. My baby just turned one this weekend and life is good. Thank you is not enough for the groundwork you helped me pave to this rewarding career path and sense of value.
Carolyn, I remember our first phone call when you asked me what I wanted for my private practice. At one point you said, “You should be on the radio.” I froze. It was like you could read my mind. In addition to working with clients, I’ve always wanted to reach a wider audience on television some day. A month later, KOIN 6 called and wanted to interview me for a segment. You were right there! You helped me prepare my important ‘talking points’, present with greater confidence, and relax. That one interview really made a difference for me! I’m now KOIN’s “Keep It Local” relationship coach. I’m on the show every week! Thank you!
Carolyn’s business, CoreSource, is so appropriately named because she goes to the core, foundational elements of what makes business work well. Since enrolled in her workshop, my business has taken off in ways I could not have imagined. With very little effort, but mostly a shift in awareness and attitude, I have more business than I ever have — even in a “down” economy.
Carolyn is kick-butt in the nicest way. Without intimidating, her approach is practical, direct, personal — and effective! She inspires thought into action. I have recommended her to many and will continue to as I know no better way to boost self-esteem and belief in what can be achieved.
What’s great about Carolyn is that she provides a wealth of information in a simple, fun style. She is able to sense what people need and shift gears seamlessly to meet them where they are—all the while pushing them to become the best they can be.
Each – and every – session I am more empowered and equipped with something concrete to incorporate. Carolyn uses her perceptiveness to my benefit. She has a depth of knowledge, practical experience and compassion that make working with her a gift.
Last week, I realized just how vital it is for me to be a guide for my own clients AND for my business. Carolyn’s infectious energy has helped me to integrate the many facets of my business by being receptive to my thoughts and ideas and allowing me to make strong choices. Her guidance is impeccable! Wow, what a difference!
Non-paralleled. Unique. Of Community Service. I’m an advocate and supporter of all that she does.
Carolyn’s gift of addressing the whole person is unparalled. I came to her seeking help with the personal and professional challenges I faced in claiming my work. Carolyn always honored the personal significance of my vision while also translating it into viable ways to connect meaningfully and professionally with my community. I am consistently impressed by how peerlessly she communicates and inspires in a way that is both challenging and honoring, direct and graceful.
