Coaching Client Experience

Sometimes we know we want support, but we are afraid of opening up to someone. Sometimes we know we want someone to listen and help guide us to our wisdom - but we aren’t sure if the investment will be worth it. Sometimes we are just plain scared to let someone see all of who we are.

I completely understand.

If you are curious about becoming a client, I want to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the transformation my clients go through.

Here you’ll find in-depth testimonials from former clients.

Take your time and when you’re ready, book a free 30 minute session - and let’s get you on the road to being your most joyful, free, and authentic self.


What problem led you to seek out coaching?

Feelings of stagnation, unhappiness, and emotional imbalance.

Was there anything you were afraid of when you started coaching sessions?

I was afraid of making changes but fundamentally understood changes were necessary. Catia helped me face my fears.

What made you feel comfortable enough to take the leap with me?

The Higher Power Hour was the doorway that led to open discussions with a group that felt like family from the beginning, and Catia, being the leader that knows how to listen and lead a conversation with compassion, empathy, and free from judgments, is what helped me take the leap.

What are three words you would use to describe yourself before coaching?

Insecure, hesitant, fearsome.

What was the overall feeling you got from me during coaching sessions?

Empowered but in the most gentle and elegant way.

What kind of breakthroughs did you experience if any?

That my inner child needed a lot of healing and that I had the capacity to be “enough”.

What are three words you would use to describe now that you are well along your journey with me? 

Empowered, enlightened, and in-progress.

What was this experience like for you?

My experience with Catia has been short-lived (3 sessions) but highly impactful! She helped me identify the source of my anxiety/ feelings of inadequacy and how to cope with them. There’s room for more improvement & I look forward to more sessions when i’m ready for the next phase.

How has coaching affected your relationship with your children? N/A

How has coaching affected your relationship with your significant other? N/A yet

What would you tell someone who is curious about seeking out coaching, but apprehensive?

Take a leap of faith...you won’t be disappointed! Only disappointed that you didn’t do this sooner.

Is there anything else I could have done to enhance your experience as a client?

Can’t think of anything at the moment.

On a scale of 1-5, 1 being not so good, 5 being excellent How would you rate your experience with me?

5 stars - Excellent


Hi friend!

I'm Catia, a woman, wife, mama, sister, sister friend, you know -- I wear a million hats just like you.

One of my biggest whys is that I want people to feel good about ALL of who they are. Including you.

The threads running through all my work (I’m an author - The Courage to Become, I’m a motivational and TEDx speaker, Choose Joy or Die , I am a Conscious Coach ) are hope, joy, and empowerment.

If I could choose ten words that best describe me I would say: honest, welcoming, giving, curious, loving, earnest, empathetic, spiritual, playful, and sassy. Let's add: adventurous. That's 11.

Nice to meet you!
