TC, consulting firm executive, Paris, France: "Barry, I made it! They told me that out of the 16 candidates, I was the highest rated. Unbelievable! Well thank you for your support and coaching. I achieved what we set out to do a little over 2 months ago (i.e. get promoted to VP). Thank you! I will be calling again."

LK, entrepreneur, branding strategist, creative-type, and horse-lover, Chicago: "Barry is and has been my "coach of choice" for many years now. Why? Because in addition to knowing HOW to achieve success himself and being able to help me along my own path, he has long-term and high-level business acumen to draw upon, solid coaching training and master-level certifications, and extraordinary common sense combined with a playful and humorous outlook on life, family, and work. Barry challenges me to be my best, even when I've lost track of what "my best" looks like. He's helped me clarify dreams and goals, and then reach them, step-by-step and sometimes leap-by-leap. I always look forward to our conversations, because while I may not always know where we'll be going, I know I'll gain insights and valuable momentum toward my own best life, plus have fun along the way. He makes progress practically painless.

TJ, VP sales/marketing, Albany, NY: "I keep to myself, on most things - unless I feel it is important to talk about. I am comfortable talking to Barry as my coach, though. For one, I never feel any judgment from him. Too, I never feel that I need him to approve of what I am doing. That is a good thing for me. So I guess I can throw all of this stuff at him and just look forward to his ideas and insights, and questions and comments. And, I can't leave out those wonderful POP quizzes he gives me. It all really helps me stay focused."

KP, science & technology consultant, Chicago: "I am now managing my staff in a more effective manner, enabling me to accomplish more than I thought was feasible. Management of my team has improved considerable. Interactions with my bosses also improved. I am now better understand how to manage their expectations. Barry provided insight on nearly every issue I raised. I was impressed with how quickly he could asses the interpersonal dynamics of the situations under discussion, and then could come up with a constructive approach."

WW, project manager, Dallas, Texas: "As I neared completion on my last project, my boss offered me a new job heading up the biggest project this company has ever attempted. I don't think I would've even been considered for this position if I had not grown under your coaching. Thanks so much, Barry."

FI, financial services executive, Chicago: "Barry helped me organize my thoughts - made me realize that I had LOTS of options. Our weekly meetings helped me find time for ME. I really looked forward to the calls. Barry made me feel like I had CONTROL of my future and that several different possibilities would be good outcomes. Barry helped me look at my WHOLE situation - not just the work portion. He was much more than a career coach. I felt I had someone in my camp."

JD, author, Northwestern Ontario, Canada: "I had no idea how incredibly effective coaching could be. I never thought it would be so powerful. I am a miracle, thanks to your coaching - I am writing 2 books for 2 different publishers, I am getting help, I am losing weight - you are amazing! You are so smart. You are so insightful. You nail it every time. You are totally effective. And another thing: nurturing. No matter what terrible thing I told you, you had complete and perfect faith in me. It was/is WONDERFUL! An experience I have never had in my whole life. I think it is called unconditional acceptance."

SC, photographer/writer, Rancho Cucamonga, CA: "I am really good at taking care of business, but not so good at taking care of myself. By completing the list of "52 Things I Am Really Excited About," I identified many concrete things I can do to enrich my life. This has given me a "to do list" of fun activities, and I've doing several of them since working with Barry. Also, it's reminded me I don't have to wait to begin meeting my needs right now."

GB, geographer, Geneva, Switzerland: "Barry helps me to accept difficult situations. To turn and twist them until I know them so well, that they are not an obstacle for me anymore. He helps me develop my skills of positive control over my life. He makes me see how valuable my inner time is. He helps clarify what I don't want to see and apply what I know already. I am the most surprised by his capacity to adapt and respond to my changes of tone, of idea, of feeling. That is very impressive."

SK, entrepreneur/coach, Boston: "As a result of working with Barry on developing my coaching practice, I feel like I have given myself permission to coach from my gut and not be afraid. He helped me believe in myself as a coach, even when I did not."

SD, company president, Dallas: "I really appreciate our working together [with GottaGettaCoach!]. I do think it has helped me focus on certain issues that in the past I just did not give heed to."

LK, blossoming woman, Poughkeepsie, New York: "I was skeptical at first because there was no face-to-face meeting, and I wondered if a "guy" could empathize with a woman's perceived issues without being judgmental. They turned out to be non-issues, though - I felt understood, supported, encouraged, and accepted. Each assignment was a building block for our phone session, and I could really experience growth from week to week. There hasn't been a day since our last call that I haven't used what I learned from our sessions. I have more courage, confidence, and self esteem. I never before thought of "fun" as being so fundamental to emotional health! I had been taught that fun was "earned " after much hard work. That's backward thinking at best. Now I plan "fun" on a regular basis, and whenever possible, I find "fun" in what I'm doing. It makes relationships so much easier!"

ES, coach/academician, Tennessee: "I'm most grateful for the progress made in developing my coaching practice. Barry helped me to be even more aware of the power of listening and the many innuendos that can be detected over the phone. He helped me balance some of the fun things in life with realistic demands. And most of all, he helped me discover my ongoing need for a sense of challenge and mystery. I now have some great clients, some exciting proposals under consideration, and I'm having a lot of fun. Thanks again, Barry, for being an exemplary model and inspiring me to pursue the field of coaching."
