“I was able to fulfill my lifelong dream of being an entrepreneur (at age 31!)”

Marketing Consultant for Venture Capitalists
I first started working with Rita after moving into a very senior executive role at a small company and realizing that the next few years were going to be hugely transformational, both from a professional and personal standpoint. Rita brought me to a level of self-awareness that I had never experienced before to help uncover my unique gifts and better understand my reactions in many personal and professional situations. Rita very quickly assessed that my biggest personal barrier was a lack of access to my inner knowing and trust in myself, as well as my tendency to attempt to control my world in the face of uncertainty.
During our coaching engagement, I was given a significant raise at work, hired a team to support me, and gained a much clearer understanding of the life I wanted in the years ahead so that I could begin channeling those desires with my connection to the universe. We agreed that my theme for the year would be embracing uncertainty, which proved to be the best possible approach to this unprecedented year!
I was able to fulfill my lifelong dream of being an entrepreneur (at age 31!) and launch my own business as an independent marketing consultant, during a pandemic, and after an unexpected layoff, increasing my earnings by over 25% and working 30% fewer hours. Rita's lessons on knowing my worth, charging the rate I deserve, and leaning into the positive aspects of my relationship with money were instrumental in creating a sustainable, profitable business from day one that is on track to bring in over $300k of revenue in its first year.
Launching my business allowed my partner and me to manifest a move to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado where we are overwhelmed by joy and awe of the life we have built for ourselves. I credit Rita's teachings for helping us get here, and I know they will continue to serve me as I continue on this journey.
