I have been a coaching student of Beryl’s since 1999 until the present.  Beryl has helped me realize, aspire to, and achieve goals I never thought possible, while becoming more true to myself.

Beryl taught me to focus on a number of issues from:

  • Realizing my future dreams
  • Removing negativity from my mindset
  • Learning how to achieve balance in my everyday life
  • Setting out goals for a certain time period and monitoring my achievement

Through Beryl’s coaching, I mustered the courage to return to University to obtain my engineering degree at 26. 

During my studies at the University of Victoria, I had a dream of going to Scotland to work for a year.  I secured a 2-year internship near Edinburgh as an electronics engineer doing computer chip design.

Currently, I am working in London, England as a Senior Electronics Engineer.  My job is something that 5 years ago I could only dream of having.

During the past 5 years, I have still managed to be coached by Beryl by email, phone or the occasional meeting when I am back in Ottawa.  Beryl has been instrumental in me achieving my current place in life, and I believe she will be an important part of where I will be in the future.
