“I was introduced to Donna by a mutual friend as I was taking the first, baby steps on my journey to full time coaching.  As soon as we spoke, I knew that the universe had put us together so that I might find my voice, my strength and my authenticity to take my next steps.  Donna has provided me the framework to create the coaching practice that I envision and the clarity and space to continue to create and occupy my version of success.  I consider Donna the consummate professional and mentor – she is my beacon of light.”

— Lisa, D Organizing Coach, Your Organized Life

“I just knew I was ready and needed support in where I was stuck. However, something so magical happens in our sessions together, I come away infused with this awareness of all that “I AM”. She is nurturing, supportive and empowers me to uncover the parts that are ready to break open. I have not only learned to trust her in this process, but the part that is far beyond beautiful to me is that I have learned to trust within myself. Working with Donna is a gift I have given to myself and I am so beyond grateful for her dedication she brings to each session. I have begun to move mountains in my world because of her and let me tell you, its breathtaking.”

— Becky C, National Geographic, Soulful Wisdom

“You brought out a lot of stuff that I didn’t even know was there. Very powerful session. I thank you so much for that. I told Drew today that I can’t even call you a “coach” because that title isn’t worthy of the magic you do. We have to come up with a more accurate description – something along the lines of magical soothsayer. Thank you for all of your time and energy and love that you gave to me today. I feel so grateful – it was a generous gift.”

— Maria Brophy, Author Art, Money & Success

“I was really able to articulate what has been a big unresolved matter for me in the past and move past shame and guilt. I really appreciate the sacred space you held for me.”

— Ishika A, Dubai

“It has been the most extraordinary professional year of my life. Donna was so effective and gentle in helping me be a better leader and provided guidance and tools that I now use every day to manage up, down and all around in my job. It has also been an extraordinary personal year. Donna has brought so much light into areas of my life that were stuck, which has resulted in amazing growth for me spiritually. She is helpful in connecting my actions to the results and coaching me on how to make shifts for desired results, which ultimately works for every area of my life!”

— Sara H, Director of Marketing Hotel del Coronado

“An angel guide through my Spiritual Healing and witness to the elaborate opening up you would call my ‘hero’s journey’.

You urged me to be brave as I stepped into my Awakening and cried with me when I would get scared of facing my pain. You understood how I felt, if not because you had been through something similar, than because your empathy for others’ paths surpasses your Earthly soul and is deeply rooted in the Eternal Energy that we all share. And YOU are brave enough to tap into that energy on MY behalf, and on the behalf of all of your clients.

Growing up in the church, I was in perpetual rescue mode, in need of a savior. Admittedly, when I first showed up to you, I had the same request as I did with Jesus Christ – Fix me! I would never be good enough, because I was inherently a sinner. And being an inherent sinner required a steady stream of sins, prayer requests, and confessions. It had become part of my narrative to always have something that had just “happened” to me or worse – that I had just “happened”. The addict role I was playing just kept happening. The saboteur me just kept happening. The victim kept happening.

And the epic Truth that you led me to that has forever changed me is that I keep happening just the way I set up to keep happening. I am constantly creating. Each and every day I am creating my world. So it is my choice on the version I’d like to create! Thanks to your help busting up my barriers of what I could or could not have, my current creation includes a home I would have only dreamed of living in six months ago, the flexible lifestyle to make a living doing what I love all while having enough free time to practice other gifts that had laid dormant for years just because I had bought into some serious BS that a thriving, life of creativity wasn’t meant for me.

And while this may seem to be contradictory to a good business model, you also taught me that I don’t need fixing! I am perfect, exactly right now, just as I am. We are each individualized expressions of God, the creator of the Universe, the Spirit that I AM. The Abundant Source of this galaxy’s prosperous infinity is the same substance that is ME! The Authentic ME. The REALity of ME.
All that other stuff – needing to be “saved”; my martyrdom syndrome; the critical, judgmental, and self-righteous patterns that follow when you believe that perfection is saved for the afterlife. All of that was the learned version of me. And the real version has just been waiting in the wings, ready for my guiding spot light to queue me on stage.

I don’t know how to thank you for showing me how to love, forgive, and for goodness sake, stop judging myself other than to continue cultivating that Love, keeping the spark aflame, and sharing this big ole light o’ mine with the world. Thank you for being my guiding light, Donna. Thank you for showing me that it’s better for all Creation when you shine!

“and gave our audience so much to think about and take away, keeping true to the title “Renew You”. It was a wonderful way to begin the new year.”

“There are many coaches out there who will help you make tangible steps in creating the business of your dreams, and there are many talented spiritual healers who will help you work through your “stuff” and find meaning in your life. Donna is a master of both these realms. She gently and lovingly held space for me, helping me work through the spiritual and emotional blocks that were preventing me from owning my gifts and skills, and at the same time held me accountable to tangible steps and choices that brought my offering and 7OM to life successfully and beautifully and in a way that makes my heart sing. Her ability to dance effortlessly between the worlds of practical concerns and spiritual reality makes her one of the greatest coaches and mentors around today. I felt understood, I felt seen and I felt able to trust in the practical advice of someone who has achieved so much tangible success in the world. If you have big dreams in your heart and are feeling lackluster or scared or frustrated, skip therapy and business coaches and go straight to the Journey Master and DreamBuilder herself. My six months working together with Donna is unquestionably one of the greatest greatest choices I have ever made in my life.”

— Nicola Behrman, Creator of 7OM

“…for us to look at our future. Donna’s initial centering exercise set the stage for a heartfelt meeting, complemented with insights and references from her readings and experience. I love that we have an articulated list of shared values, that my wife and I can use to guide the buildout of our vision for the future.
I have a new found “lift”, as if I have been introduced/reminded of additional gears in my transmission!”

— Jeffere Ferris, Entrepreneur, San Diego

“In all her grace, Donna consistently shows up in love and good-heartedness, genuinely wanting to help you in the ways that you need it. Her passion for her work flows through her in everything that she does.
As much as Donna is skilled in her teachings and guiding you through the learning experience with trusting tools, there is an beautiful presence of humanity involved as well. The moment you connect with Donna, be it via phone, email, or in person, the nonjudgmental, accepting, and open heart of hers is strongly felt. You know that she cares, as well as trust that she is there for you.”

— Reanna K, Program Manager, Ladera Sports Center

“Your public speaking skills are wonderful…very polished and professional. Seems like you have been doing it for a long while. Great command of the information too! You seemed prepared to me and very fluent with the content. Loved your personal story and how you made it fit with the content and the message. So good.

This surprised me as well: I thought I would be watching this and just critiquing you and all of the above. I never expected to personally connect with what you are saying……but I did! I even got choked up when you got choked up. I was engaged and reflective on how what you were saying related to me on different levels. I Really didn’t expect that.”

— Michael D, RVP Hotel Operations, Interstate Hotels & Resorts

“…When I started working with Donna, a little over six months ago, I would have never believed how much progress I could make in such a short time. I had decided to work with a coach after some significant life events made me realize that every day I put my dreams off was one day less I would get to spend living them. I had been stuck for a few years and knew I had to do something about it. With Donna’s help, I have found the trust in myself to start taking the steps towards those dreams.
