"Judy has a grounded and straight-forward approach to coaching, while being a tremendous partner to discover emotional depths that support driving one toward their objectives. The energy leadership assessment, tools and debrief were very enlightening, providing me with great insights. I'm incredibly grateful to have had Judy as a coach, and am now well on my way to achieving my goals. Thanks Judy!"
