CLIENT

I consulted with Andrea as I was building a secondary career as a voice over (VO) artist. I have worked in social services the majority of my career so I had some reservations as it pertained to breaking into VO.

Andrea is a godsend. She created a safe space for sometimes vulnerable and difficult conversations. She is a fantastic listener and asked pertinent follow up questions that helped me clarify my thoughts and intentions. Her questions, feedback and recommendations helped guide me down a path to action.

CLIENT

I am delighted to recommend Andrea to anyone seeking personal growth, clarity, and empowerment. Whether navigating career transitions, mindset shifts, or overall development, she fosters a supportive and motivating environment that inspires progress. Her compassion, expertise, and unwavering dedication makes her an exceptional advocate, consultant and a true catalyst for meaningful change.
