Testimonials
Imagine what it would be like as a coaching client to be met with full acceptance, curiosity, an open heart and deep insight. Marcia approaches coaching with great skill and knowledge of the Enneagram, however, it is her quality of Presence that allows clients to know themselves in a deeply authentic way so that they can arrive at their own truths and expansive capacities. Marcia’s integrity, aligning who she is with what she offers, is easily apparent. I trust this wise woman completely.

Marcia was my guide into being a ‘real adult.’ She opened my eyes to amazing possibilities in my life and supported me to get there. Her calm and loving demeanor was like a light in a storm for me. I will be forever grateful for the contribution she made to my happiness and fulfillment in life.

Working with her has been a springboard for the next phase of my life, energized me, and helped me know ‘this is what I want to do.’ Marcia is good at bringing out the best in you, pushing you, and holding your feet to the fire when needed. She really is a partner in wanting and bringing out the best in her clients. It was exactly what I needed and asked for. She’s very good at seeing the big picture, but she’s also great at tactically getting things done.
Steve Peterson, Brand Manager
My retreat began with the first phone call with Marcia, and her initial questions set in motion a powerful journey of discovery. The retreat environment is not only welcoming and comfortable, it is ideal space for transformation to occur. Marcia is a gifted coach and guide for those seeking a breakthrough.
Amy L. Batiste, Ed.D., Strategic Counsel/Project Leadership
She considers the whole person in an integrative coaching model that honors work and non-work passions. Before working with Marcia, I felt trapped by my successes at work, and also felt guilty about feeling that way. Now I feel excited and joyful about pursuing options that contribute even more richly to both my personal mission and the mission of my employer. Marcia helped me find my true voice.

My retreat was inspirational and fun. The exercises and questions from Marcia helped me to clarify the question I came in with. I think anyone wanting some clarification around a decision or the next step would benefit from a personal retreat with (sic) Marcia.
My personal retreat was fantastic! It was a wonderful experience. It was a really thoughtful time and it was a chance to reflect on meaningful things in my life. Marcia uses her intuition to really to help you reflect and ask yourself important questions.
Collaborating with Marcia in developing curriculum and teaching the Enneagram and the practice of Presence for coaches was a rich experience.
