Colette has been an incredible source of support on my journey toward creating my vision and goals and just simply navigating life's challenges. Her approach is both warm and non-judgmental, which makes me feel comfortable discussing all aspects of my life with her. She also shares her personal experiences to explain concepts and to even address challenges I currently face, which not only helped me feel related to and not so alone in my struggle, but also provided valuable insights I never considered.
Colette introduced powerful concepts like "staying out of judgment" and "tending your own garden." They have become guiding principles in my life that constantly remind me to focus on my own life journey instead of comparing myself to others. Through her coaching, I am able to navigate life with greater self-awareness and purpose.

"During my coaching sessions with Colette, we addressed several pivotal areas, including understanding my parents’ upbringing, learning to stop lying and mastering the art of sending professional emails to request payment for my work. These sessions were transformative and eye-opening.

Since working with Colette, I have experienced a significant increase in my overall happiness. I am now more mindful of my future and choices, and I have developed a stronger sense of self-worth and confidence in my abilities.
I cannot recommend Colette and Lightyear Coaching services highly enough! Each step of the journey was enlightening and empowering. I learned something new in every session and gained the confidence to create my path.

What stands out most from my coaching experience is Colette’s unwavering understanding and gentle approach. She looked beyond my trauma and consistently reminded me of my potential. Her support and guidance have been invaluable, and I am deeply grateful for the positive impact she has had on my life and future."
