CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

  • "As a long-time assisted living administrator, I didn’t realize how much I needed a coach until I finally got started. Douglas’ insight into the senior living industry was spot-on, and the strategies were easily executed and tailored to my goals. I’m feeling more stabile, have a healthier work/life balance, and a renewed passion for my work."

    Laurie P.

  • "I was navigating a transition from Resident Care Director to a regional care position and feeling nervous about the promotion and supervising my peers. Douglas helped me gain clarity and created a plan that made the change simpler. I felt empowered, and the tools I gained were invaluable for my success in this new postion."

    Jamie K.

  • "From our first session, I felt understood. As someone working in Memory Care, I wanted a coach who knew the emotional demands of my job, I didn’t want to have to explain it to someone. Douglas was kind, approachable, and helped me build a plan for my future goals, which is a promotion. Better balance with my work and family life have been game changers for me as well. I didn't expact that part of this process.”

    Lindsey B.

  • "I’ve had mentors in senior living before, usually a boss, but working with an objective coach took things to a new level. He understood the unique challenges of assisted living and created a strategy that was empowering and easily executed. Today, I’m in an Executive Director role that I love! I was able to start my new job feeling valued right from the begninning. With new negotiating skills, I started with a significantly higher salary than the original offer."

    Keith F.

  • "After 15 years as an ED, I was feeling burned out. Douglas was supportive and helped me build an action plan that prioritized both my career and my well-being. My happiness and sleep have improved dramatically since starting four months ago. My family can feel it and the impact on my team has been incredible. Truly an invaluable experience."

    Mary H.
