Here are some of the success stories;
“Marieke coached me several times. She is a very dynamic, professional, and intuitive coach. I believe that her key strengths are her full presence, her listening skills of what is being said and what is not being said, and her ease of providing clarity in a very short period of time. Marieke is a wonderful coach!”

“My work with Marieke was really powerful. She has the ability to cut right to the heart of the matter, providing valuable feedback from layers of observation, and asking questions that help you find exactly what you need–answers, options, alternatives. She’s masterful at helping someone get ‘unstuck.’ Approaching life with intention really works!”

“Energetic-powerful-impactful. These are just a few of the ways to describe Marieke as a professional coach. I have experienced Marieke’s impact first hand as a client. As a coach myself, I respect and admire her strengths and abilities. Among these are Marieke’s powerful listening skills. She is able to observe what the client may not see themselves. This keen ability to observe and re-frame allows Marieke to guide her clients to experience a different perspective which can be instrumental in creating positive change in their lives. Whatever is keeping you from creating your dream life, you will begin to discover and address with Marieke.”

“My coach’s support was outstanding, and she was absolutely invaluable and crucial element in my success and fulfillment as an artist. Since embracing my true path, I have experienced some pivotal moments: finding just the right job, in just the right place; having a solo art exhibition in an art gallery, giving an artist’s discussion and not succumbing to stage-fright, and becoming President of my artists’ collective, the Métis Artist Collective. Marieke supported me at every turn by challenging me to move out of my comfort zone, and to have faith in my own abilities. She encouraged me to reach for the sky by overcoming fear and self-limiting ways of thinking. Our focus was on the positive, on acknowledging and celebrating achievements, and on setting intentions. Marieke brought her focused intelligence and keen intuition, as well as a constructive and active approach to setting and achieving goals. She held me accountable for doing my “homework”, creating a vision-board was one early example, but I loved doing my homework, and doing it helped me to focus and to grow. When I look at my vision-board now, I am so proud of all of the goals that I have been able to reach. My coach brought her inspiring energy and was encouraging, yet discriminating, in evaluating my efforts. I learned how to own my success, and, also, to accept failure, or fear of failing, and turn it into an experience that I could grow and learn from. I want to thank my coach for her commitment to helping me to realize my deepest dreams, and to be truly fulfilled and happy. Through the coaching process, I was able to find focus and direction, and to reconnect with my life’s path.”

“Marieke was resourceful with using tools that guided me to believe in forgiveness, and healing. She was imaginative and supportive in the coaching sessions and attentive to answer questions in between sessions. Active listening, with questions to provoke thought and emotion that lead me to realizing deeper levels of my soul. Her effective feed back helped me to believe in myself and take a constructive direct to fulfill my dreams and move forward to living a happier and healthier life. Marieke is a great cheer leader which is an authentic trait for her. She holds the space, yet she is strong in her coaching to make a shift in energy in the most difficult sessions or issues.”

“Marieke approached my situation from a different point of view and showed me another angle. She made me write down my ideal situation, used the technique of taking baby steps to get there – going down the mountain – and helped me to find the answer within myself. She was very much in the moment. I sometimes felt answers came through her and the wisdom she spoke was transferred from a universal conscience. She seems to have access to more than meets the eye. That makes her very special and made our Skype connection go on overload more than once. On the other hand Marieke drew from very worldly information as well: statistics on human behavior, patterns to watch out for, common traps. Those gave me the strength to look at my problem with more confidence on a good outcome. I am not the only one in my particular situation. And Marieke could also be very practical. More than once she gave me a weekly task. It felt good to not only work in my head but also with my hands. By the 10th session we felt we had worked through my goals and the circle was round. It felt very good to round off our 12 sessions in a spirit of contentment and success. Thank you Marieke”
