Before starting with The Doctor’s Pivot, I was struggling to learn all of the logistical pieces that go into building a coaching business. I was wasting hours online watching tutorials on how to build a webpage and develop email funnels, all things that were completely foreign to me and I had no interest in learning. I considered hiring a VA or someone to teach me how to use each platform or program, but I just didn’t have the time to do it myself, nor did I even know where to start. Manuela’s all-inclusive, done-for-you package was exactly what I needed. She has collected a wonderfully curated team of professionals to build your business from just an idea to a full scale online business. I am blown away by how seamless and fun this process has been. I feel like an actual professional entrepreneur now! Thank you to Manuela for bringing my dreams to life.

I discovered Manuela at a time in my life when I had recently changed careers in a way that left me feeling guilty, vulnerable, and slightly ashamed. Working with her allowed me to see my career change for what it really was – an exciting opportunity to honor who I am and use my past experiences to discover a new path that I truly loved. She met me each week with enthusiasm and wisdom, not to mention a lot of humor. Since working with Manuela, I have had more tools to foster my own creativity, work through challenging situations with my children, and let go of the expectations of people around me in order to fully embrace my true self. Working with Manuela was one of the greatest investments of my life with an absolutely incredible return. I would recommend her to all of my loved ones and I am grateful to myself every day for having made the decision to work with her.

Coaching sessions with Manuela have been life changing for me. The sessions have helped me professionally and personally. I have a new level of confidence, apprehension for myself and my leadership ability. I have learned to create alternative stories that generate impactful energy and communication with others. It turns out that coaching sessions aren’t just about learning new skills, it’s about utilizing and strengthening what you already know. A great coach guides an individual to be their best self, is positive, enthusiastic, supportive, trusting, goal-oriented, knowledgeable, respectful, and patient. A great coach is Manuela!

Manuela has an uncanny ability to guide, but not drive.  Her coaching style is gentle.  She really helps you figure things out for yourself.  In our first session, I tried to unload all of my problems at her feet, and wait for her to magically fix them.  She wouldn't just give me the solutions, she helped me discover MY OWN solutions.  Every session felt like a walk through my own mind, where Manuela and I would examine the scenery and imagine how to make it better.  She made sure to emphasize that whatever I decide to do is OK, as long as it is done with intention.  

What I learned through this experience is that everyone could use a coach in their life.  When things are going well, it's easy to think that you don't need a coach.  I found that coaching helps you maintain a clear vision of who you are, where you're at, and where you want to go.  It really felt like preventative maintenance for my mind.  Manuela helped me devise ways to check-in with myself, with non-judgment, and I'm going to carry that with me everyday.  

Above all, I could really feel her warmth and empathy during our conversations.  She's an incredibly sincere and caring person, and that's very evident in her coaching.
