Alex worked with my husband, supporting him in identifying his style, playing with gender presentation, even coaching him on walking in heals. It was delightful to watch as the supportive wife. Alex is professional, reliable, and fun! A great combo! I love sharing his business card everywhere I go.
Working with coach Alex has been an amazing experience. S/He/They are great listener and ally in more ways I have space to described in this review box.
I attended a boundary workshop hosted by Alex and absolutely loved it. Before the workshop Alex came over to me and started a conversation which was really supportive in having me feel welcomed. Alex has a direct real world rawness that eased my system. They aren't quoting out of a book they are connecting through lived experience.
I attended Alex's Boundaries workshop and walked away with clear and actionable steps to better understand my boundaries and how to be effective in my boundary setting. I appreciated being able to bring a problem and receive tangible solutions! Thank you Alex.
Alex is clear, concise, kind and friendly. I went to their workshop on setting boundaries that they helped coordinate and lead. I felt more empowered through that class to be more authentic and take more responsibility for my actions and how I form my relationships. I really appreciated the work that went into creating that atmosphere by both her and Brittney, and I hope to learn more from Alex soon!
I loved your message and delivery at our conference. After you spoke, we went out to the fire pits and enjoyed sharing your message and continuing the conversation. Your opening words touched my heart. I am sorry you had a momentary panic about how you would be received, and I hope my following comments are helpful. I have been working in schools, attending conferences twice yearly for six years. After your session, many of our "seasoned" professionals approached me and shared how this was one of the best conferences they have ever attended. Your message, delivery, and engaging personality made our group reflect on their excellent work and how they need to take time for themselves. You kept returning them to their reflection, not what they do but who they are and how they feel. You were perfect! Your words and message were very positive throughout the following day, and it was exciting to hear. Keep being yourself and sharing your message. You are more than enough; you are perfectly your authentic self. Thanks again.
I would leave sessions with previous coaches feeling small. With Alex, I felt incredibly enlightened and EMPOWERED by who I am. I now have invaluable tools that I use daily and I just cannot thank him enough for changing my worldview!
Coach Alex is a wonderful and beautiful soul that has helped me when I was in some of my darkest periods. I can't thank him enough for his coaching, and I have personally recommended him to friends.
Alex is an amazing coach who will not only support and guide you in becoming more of YOU but will make you laugh and hold space for you while you cry all along the way. Hiring him has been one of the best decisions of my life.
Aside from being terribly well qualified, Alex is thoughtful, really digs into the issue you want to discuss, holds the space well, and looks good doing it. He not only helped me achieve some of the goals I was working towards but helped me get through some difficult little hiccups in my life. I can't recommend him enough. If you need more proof go listen to his podcast, that's how I found him.
