| "As the working environment
seems to deteriorate in most major corporations I find that I am
not alone in my quest to reinvent myself. I feel that Amy has a
tremendous gift for bringing out the best in her clients and that
she is bringing out the best in me. I am enjoying the process of
reinventing myself and now look forward to what is to come versus
fearing it."

"When I have felt far from my goal, I have not always wanted
to talk to Amy. However, when those rare instances occur, Amy has
been able to prescribe activities which renew my energies. Most
important to me, my coaching relationship with Amy has kept me focused
on my overall goal when I would have otherwise abandoned it."
Attorney, Chicago, IL
"I consider Amy to be fearless. She truly thinks outside the
box, and uses creative and sometimes unorthodox methods while remaining
logical and consistently clear. She has helped me to enjoy life
more by stripping it down and removing "false barriers"
to a satisfying life."
Small Business Owner, Denver, CO
"My weekly call with Amy is like a tonic. It rejuvenates
my creativity and keeps me on track with my personal
and business objectives. With Amy's help I continue to
develop as an effective leader while never losing site of
the person I truly am and the things I want from life."
Vice President, Fortune 500 corporation
"Amy helped obtain an immediate $10,000 additional income
in our first month of coaching. Her secret? She was able to see
my natural talents and gifts and bring them to the surface which
allowed me to capture my financial windfall. The irony in this scenario
is that Amy was coaching me on my personal growth which allowed
me to reap a financial windfall. Thanks Amy, I am forever grateful."
Tom H., financial planner, Indiana
I feel that my words alone cannot fully convey the positive impact
Amy has had on my life. I have learned so much from working with
her. She has also given me the gift of believing in myself and my
abilities. With her support I have faced some of my biggest fears
and have had the courage to move through them. I believe she is
truly a gifted and giving coach.
Susan - Vancouver B.C. Canada
Amy Ruppert was my coach for two years. During that period, I was
transitioning from 22 years as an executive of a Fortune 100 company
into retirement. Amy was a critical element in the success of my
change. With her mastery over coaching techniques, our coaching
together not only shifted me personally, it also gave me an excellent
model for my road ahead.
Ted - Westchester, PA
Amy Ruppert has been both an inspiration and a friend. She is wise,
highly empathetic and supportive whilst being able to challenge
outlived patterns and beliefs where necessary. She is perceptive
and insightful and gets to the core of things quickly. Amy is warm,
heart-centred, intelligent, intuitive and has a wonderfully rich
sense of humour. She has impacted just about every area of my life
and most particularly my relationship with my self.
Jill - London, U.K.
Amy's coaching style is warm and loving; she helped me find my
center amidst a tumultuous transition. I learned to really be myself
so I could then be of support to others. When the time came for
me to focus on building my career, she gently reminded me to stay
at choice in creating a career that fit perfectly into my lifestyle.
With her words of encouragement, I found myself blossoming, accepting
all parts of myself so I could more fully share my gifts with the
world.
Mary - San Antonio, TX
Knowing Amy is truly a privilege. She has modeled the "being-ness"
of being a coach in such an inspiring way that it awakened within
me the knowledge that my path is really about how I live my life
and how I touch everyone with whom I come in contact. For that,
I will be forever grateful.
Sara - Richmond, VA
Amy posses numerous gifts that, I believe, have been created specifically
for her profound work in the coaching profession - tremendous listening
skills, business knowledge, accurate intuition, great sense of humor,
mutual respect and a heart of gold. Amy and I have been in a coaching
relationship for over three years, and during that time I've been
approached by other coaches who've asked to be my coach. Yet, as
each session with Amy unfolds I continue to experience a myriad
of new learning and emotional adventures that stretch my insecurities
and expand my belief systems. I have yet to grow tired of our designed
alliance because it continues to shift and grow, reminding me of
our serendipitous connection and our mutual commitment to the evolution
of life.
Valerie - San Diego, CA
I had been trying to "find" myself and determine my calling
since I was in college. It's been ten years now. Amy helped me realize
that I was looking so hard for THE answer that I couldn't hear the
voice inside myself shouting it out. She told me that when I heard
the voice (and really listened to it), I would realize that what
I was looking for had always been there. She was right. Amy told
me that my gift is my heart; once I actually heard those words spoken,
I knew it was true because someone else could see it. With Amy's
guidance, I had already determined my core values, so it didn't
take long for me to realize that I need to be a teacher; I have
always needed and wanted to be a teacher. Working with Amy has given
me the courage to go back to school to pursue my certification.
I feel like a new person. Together, Amy and I have changed my life.
Amy possesses a tremendous gift-the gift of listening. She says
she doesn't have any magic tricks, but I swear she does. She always
seems to know just what to say, but she says she is just telling
you what you already know. She is your voice of reason, your self-esteem,
your shoulder to cry on, the swift kick in the butt when you know
you need it, and best of all she is the kind of friend that comes
along once in a lifetime."
Kristin F., account executive, Missouri
I met Amy Ruppert about the time I was coming to recognize what
it was like to be done with the restoration work and to get on to
the fun stuff. Amy was co-facilitating a CoachU sponsored Personal
Foundation class (which, by the way is fabulous stuff). A few weeks
into the class, I decided I really had no idea how to deal with
my need to control (amazingly, I was at a point to 'own' that need),
and I asked Amy if she could recommend a coach who might be familiar
with the Personal Foundation Concepts and could assist me with moving
through the material. Amy said that she was available and I signed
up without a second thought. Although, I was sure to tell Amy that
I was strictly on a month-to-month basis (what! Me make a commitment?).
I could write for days about how incredible Amy is at what she
does. This is actually the most challenging part of sharing my story
-- communicating the amazing changes in me for which Amy undoubtedly
provided the catalyst. Wherever I was, Amy was right there as an
incredibly bright light illuminating my life in a way that allowed
and supported me in recognizing and making choices that I didn't
even perceive on my own.
The best recommendation and tribute I can share about Amy is what's
manifest in my life and me. The spiritual, emotional, physical,
and mental richness that now exist in my life after only eight months
of working with Amy is phenomenal to me. A couple of important items
of note here: First, living a joyous and effortless life does not
mean that obstacles or challenges are removed; rather such a life
requires one to be 100% responsible for oneself and to use the obstacles
and challenges to better oneself. Second, as Amy's client, I worked
incredibly hard during the process, was willing to be absolutely
honest and to face any fears and foibles I found. I personally believe
in miracles and that Amy is one of them in my life, and as long
as you are ready to fully participate in the process, she may be
one of the miracles in yours.
Beverly, corporate executive, California
As a pioneer and leader in the coaching profession, Amy has a deep
commitment and passion for the work she does. She believes she was
born to do this work and many of her clients will agree. |
