“Throughout my professional career, I often struggled with being confident in my decision making for fear of taking the wrong course of action. With the help of Wes and his coaching, I have learned to appreciate my strengths and respect my shortcomings. Together, we were able to break issues down into smaller and actionable tasks, enabling me to accomplish things that seemed impossible from the beginning. My management skills, conflict resolution skills, and planning skills have developed tenfold. With his guidance and support, I am growing into the leader that my team needs, and someone I am proud of. ”

Sean Swetz, Customer Learning Experience Manager

“My coaching sessions with Wes have been extremely transformative. Before working with Wes, I often second-guessed my decisions and looked to others to validate them. After a few months coaching with Wes, I have increased self-confidence in my ability to make sound choices. Wes really helped me to understand my core values and how to include activities in my life that will bring me more happiness. Wes’s empathetic and curious leadership style brought out the best in me and coaching with Wes was such a transformative experience for me!”
