“Supporting the healthy, enjoyable nurturance of a dream requires the wise support of someone who understands all the phases and stages of its growth and delivery. The dream realization process can be full of as many fluctuating "hormones" and emotions as any human pregnancy and birth. My dream had a mind of its own as it would fly up, fall down and turn itself inside out. Never detecting even a subtle doubt from Tara's coaching presence allowed me to dig deep down to the roots for my own confidence. I always left our discussions feeling respected and yes, even honored. A dream realization coach like Tara fills a sorely lacking space in much of our society. It is to the benefit of every human heart to tend to it's dreams. Big or small, the world is calling for it.” ~ Bonnie Lee Perry, artist

“Working with Tara gave me the ability to visualize a salary that I originally thought would be unreachable. After going over my experience and skills I realized how much I am worth, and how much I had to offer to a potential employer.  While interviewing, I was able to successfully negotiate for a salary that was 40% higher than the one I would have asked for before working with Tara! The salary negotiation process went smoothly because I knew I deserved it, and I learned that my employer knew it too because not only did I get the job I wanted, but I got the salary I asked for too!” ~ Ceci, Business Marketing Executive

“Tara, thank you for a very powerful experience for me and my staff! You have a strong presence.
~ Keely McDonald, Head Coach, Brown University Women's Lacrosse

“Tara, I am ever grateful for your amazing presence and inspiration in my life. Your enthusiasm and support and your wonderful ideas mean a great deal to me! You are so good at your job!!! What a blessing for the world that you became a life coach!!!” ~ Ginny Fox, Director of The Peace Flag Project

“Tara is a careful reader, of written communication as well as a reader of voice and intention.  She is honest about what she hears and while remaining supportive and non-judgmental, she shares her readings in ways that lead to insights and motivation.  In saying that Tara is a careful reader, I also mean care-full, full of care.  What I’ve discovered in working with her is that insights occur in ways I couldn’t have anticipated, and these create some surprising connections that make the pathway toward goals more circuitous and organic rather than linear, and that feels right.” ~ Judy, doula & childbirth educator

“I was feeling lost with the career choices I faced and overwhelmed at my options. I wanted to make a living as a visual artist but faced many financial and psychological roadblocks. Tara asked me questions which prompted me to define my priorities and helped me see my goals more clearly. Through our conversations and my "homework", I came up with a unique solution for the creative path my life wanted to take. Tara is an excellent listener, talented coach, and it's clear that she sincerely loves what she does.” ~ Carianne Mack, Visual Artist & Professor

“Meeting Tara was an intensely positive experience.  Through our sessions, I gained the courage to see what I really want to do.  My confidence grew as Tara helped me to recognize how many skills I have, while also giving me the tools I needed to take control of the transition in progress.  I even began to really enjoy the process! I now have the tools to manage both my personal and professional life, and by applying them every day, my life has changed for good. Tara always kept a positive attitude! She was always calm, which was good because I was not calm.  She had total confidence that I was going to get what I wanted, and I began to think: 'If she thinks I can do it, then it must be true.'  Parts of my personality that I had forgotten resurfaced, and with renewed confidence, I began to face my fears and overcome them with a positive attitude.  Now, I'm on a fast-track to the life I've always wanted.” ~ Cecilia, small business owner

“My coaching experience with Tara has been incredibly productive, more so than I ever imagined when I began the process. She has offered me a number of valuable tools to assist me in refocusing my life, so that I have more time & energy to reach my goals.  She has offered a clear perspective that has assisted me in releasing old patterns that were no longer serving me.  Her positive encouragement & affirming attitude has provided me with the accountability I needed to stick to my plan and get to where I want to be.  I would strongly encourage anyone to hire a personal coach, and highly recommend it be Tara!” ~ Kathy, Program Director

“After just our first couple of sessions, Tara helped me to make a critical transition:  I was feeling unsettled about work and home, and our conversations energized me to re-see my profession and to fulfill a dream of being a homeowner.  A lot has happened in a short time!  I attribute that to Tara’s capacity to take my dreams seriously, to put them within the realm of the possible.” ~ Laura, teacher

“Tara has this natural effervescent personality that’s engaging and contagious. Working with her to tackle my challenges and pursue my goals was FUN and exciting, and when it wasn’t she was right there cheering me on.  Although I appreciate her use of humor and compassion in our sessions, I believe her top strength lies in her ability to pinpoint the core issue within my layers of concern.” ~ Jenae, Life Coach & Personal Assistant  

“When I started working with Tara, I had been unsuccessfully searching for a new job for about 8 months, and I had been dreaming about being self-employed for roughly six years. In the 3 months we worked together I acquired a wonderful part-time job, which gives me flexibility to pursue my dream to be a small business owner, a five-page proposal for the small business, a reference to a local organization which offers classes for small business owners, and an unstoppable commitment to manifesting the dream of bringing my gifts and passions to the world through a small business. I can attribute all of these accomplishments to the coaching Tara gave me during those 3 months. Thank you Tara!” ~ Alison L., artist
