I tell everyone I come across, THIS is what a coach should do. I so look forward to and enjoy our conversations that I’m having a hard time saying goodbye."

Janice –Boulder, Co
"Working with Lucky was a life changing experience. She helped me to reach new heights in my career and to finally succeed at long-standing personal goals. She is extremely personable and has the ability to connect with her clients quickly and to begin work with them at whatever stage they're in at the time. She is trustworthy, always encouraging, a patient and insightful guide through the various experiences of life.”
Barbara T., San Jose, CA

Her techniques allow your strengths to be realized, your journey to be appreciated and a greater sense of purpose to be obtained. I am a more confident and fulfilled individual today as a result of Lucky's coaching."
Franklin, Albuquerque, NM
"I worked with Lucky for the past year. It was fantastic. We set objectives for what I wanted to accomplish, identified my values, tackled current issues and explored future plans. I was so pleased at the structure and focus of each session. A year later, I can honestly say that I have more work/life/ personal balance, better non-defensive communication skills, plus I'm on my way to live in a new place. I highly recommend Lucky as the complete package: focused, reflective, practical, productive, and supportive."
– Joseph, Rome, NY
" Lucky is an amazing life coach, very empathic and professional. My sessions with her helped me truly move forward with life. She has a versatile tool box that can help anyone gain clarity, make great change, and create next steps while having a supportive ear by your side."
–Kim-- Clayton, CA
"I had 3 sessions with Lucky during a time when I had to make an extremely challenging life decision. She helped me weigh all my options and we narrowed in on my strengths and core values to ensure that I incorporated these into my decision as well.."
–Allen-- Mountain View, CA
"Lucky changed my life! She is an amazing life coach. She met me where I was and gave me support via meditation techniques, networking techniques and frameworks to make my transition. –Sunny-- San Francisco, CA
"After working with , I finally found the job I was waiting for. I got a great offer and all of my "non-negotiables" and values were respected. My expectations were exceeded. Our sessions really helped me to focus on what was important and definitely contributed to me finding a fantastic position."
–Ana Schuster, Research Scientist, San Francisco, CA
"I worked with Lucky to discover my personal style and how I want to show up in the world. She is an excellent listener and hones in on key words from my descriptions. Lucky gives great perspective on various situations, and offers alternative ways to view things. “ Sherry G., NH
“Every session with Lucky was actionable, and she kept me accountable by assigning homework in which I had to practice using different tools in specific work situations. One particularly impactful session, walked me through a visualization exercise in which I was able to see myself in 6 months, and that gave me a lot of understanding on what I need to do, and how I was going to accomplish my goals. I've worked with coaches previously, and none of them came close to the kind of impact that had on me during our time together. Best of all, I didn't feel like I was talking to a therapist, I felt I was talking to a wise and funny friend. She was completely down to earth, and approachable and I look forward to working with her again."
–Charlotte-- San Jose, CA
“Working with Lucky for 8 months was life changing. Going into my mid 40's I came to her to seek help in building the next chapter in my career. What I didn't expect is that I needed guidance in my personal life as well. Every session was therapeutic and eye opening, however I had to work at it everyday to see the results and improvements. The homework assigned during each session were relevant to push me forward, to get me to the place I needed to be and feel positive.” Lee R.-- New Mexico
“ Lucky has a gift to closely listen, she's able to tap into your inner thoughts and formulate the root cause and suggest ways to work through difficulties. I've grown spiritually and healed mentally from our sessions. I'm a better person today through Lucky's dedication and willingness to push me forward even on days I was struggling. This review does not serve justice to what I learned and experienced and to take away permanent positive changes and apply it to my daily life.” Linda George-- Oregon
“Lucky helped me be ready and willing to make changes in my life. She was there to guide me in to the clear direction that was there in my heart.. She helped me in ways I did not expect, with knowledge and skills I did not know she even had. Ultimately the sessions were above and beyond my expectations. Lucky’s impact will continue be a part of my life as I continue to grow as a person.”
–Angela – Aspen, CO
"I had just 3 sessions with Lucky and learned a tremendous amount, growing my skills, techniques and great resources for self development and general life balance goals. Lucky is reliable, friendly, professional, a great listener, very inquisitive, and really puts you at ease. I enjoyed working with her and look forward to continuing to put everything I learned to practice! I definitely would recommend this coaching to anyone."
–Steve L., Fairfield, CA
"I greatly appreciate your grounded, clear, approach to understanding my emotions and mind and your help so I don’t get anxious as I once did."
–Jennifer H., Palo Alto, CA
"Thank you so much, ! Everything has been going great for me since our first session. I got the raise I wanted at work and I realize how much more confidence I have. I wake up grateful everyday with a big smile on my face."
–E.C., Los Angeles, CA
"I can't tell you how amazing this process has been for me. I've come so far since we first started working together—I barely recognize the woman I was—and I owe a great deal of that to.Lucky."
–Stacy K., CA
"In just a few short months of working with Lucky, I have experienced what I can only describe as exponential internal growth. Lucky's unique insight, her attention to the not so obvious, lends to her overall spirit and excellence as a life coach. I am blessed our paths have crossed. She is indeed exceptional."
–Leslie F., New York, NY
"I interviewed a few other coaches and was put off by how much they talked and how little they listened. Lucky really knows how to listen and ask the right questions. She has such a patient, grounded, yet totally engaged way of working. She was able to give me all the space I needed to think out loud (which is how I work through problems and dilemmas) and offered just the right amount of inquiry, support and encouragement to keep me chugging along. In my work with Lucky, I was able to identify my goals, narrow my focus and generate a ton of cool ideas which I am now plugging away at with great results."
–Stephanie, Salt Lake City.Utah
"As a business owner, I need support sometimes on the emotional side of things, and sometimes the practical. Have had a couple sessions with Lucky to help sort out some emotional issues affecting my business. In both sessions she was extremely helpful. She seems quite comfortable and competent working in the different roles of coach and consultant, easily navigating the emotional and practical. Even a couple sessions has made a big difference for me!"
–Gayle O., Phoenix, AZ
“I worked with Lucky in the spring of 2017. I had a goal to move overseas, but was stuck, not believing I really could do it. She helped me create a plan that moved me into action and fueled my desire and excitement. I will be moving overseas next month! Lucky was a great sounding board and offered insight I was not able to see on my own. A wonderful experience.”
–Patricia S., Chicago, Illinois
"I worked with Lucky during a big transition time, deciding between a career shift and going to graduate school. Lucky helped me focus in on what I'd like to contribute to the world and navigate balancing work and personal commitments. She is a great listener and was able to reflect back to me my own experience. I can especially recommend working with her if you’re at a point of transition in life and want someone who is action-oriented."
–Justine- Berkeley, CA
“I worked with Lucky for just three sessions. I really had no idea what I was aiming for, except finding a new path for myself The coaching helped me steer myself toward a new future and find a way to tell my bosses at my current job what I needed and got it!” Peggy R., Keaau, HI
"In the past four plus years, Lucky helped me work through two work layoffs, some serious financial problems, more than a few relationship breakups and family issues. She helped me to restore my self-confidence and positive outlook on many occasions and helped me realize that I DO have wonderful qualities which help me to contribute to the world I live in. Thank you, , for helping me be the person I am today"
–Gail T., Mountain View, HI
"Working with Lucky was a great experience. She really helped me balance my personal, family and professional goals.

Again, thank you for taking the time to work with me, .I'm very grateful!"
–Emily – New Jersey
"I can't recommend Lucky highly enough. I was introduced to her when my husband bought me a package with her for Christmas. I wasn't quite sure what a 'Life Coach' would do for me but I soon realized that she was helping me transform for the better, not only in the way I did things but how I thought of myself. She’s helped me with tangible aspects as well as my inner needs. I’ve found the coaching to be a great asset with the areas I needed. Lucky listens to my dreams and my goals are and has helped me develop achievable ways to tackle them and make them happen. I’ve found new paths have opened from our time together. Lucky has enriched my life which makes it a great Christmas present!"
–Amy --Walnut Creek, CA
"When I run into people I haven't seen for awhile, they comment on how happy, energized and great I look. I tell them it's due to the work I've done with Lucky."
–Joelle H., Los Angeles, CA
"I got more out of one month coaching with Lucky than I did from all of the self-help books I've read and seminars I've attended over the years."
–Rebecca R., Belle Plaine, MN
" Lucky has been very effective in helping me clarify my key issues and find the sense of grounding that I need to make changes and forge new paths in my career and my life."
–Margaret O., Fairfax, NJ
"Before coaching, I was living my life on auto-pilot. While it was easy and safe, I always had a nagging feeling that I could do more...be more. Through my work with Lucky, I've learned how to make intentional choices and have developed a newfound confidence that allows me to present my best self to the world."
