Thank you for your continual insight and great coaching. I believe we have completed two years of coaching at this time and it is hard to imagine what it would have been like without the coaching.

Mark Puentes, Registered Nurse, Entrepreneur

I have been doing great since we last spoke. I now live in San Francisco, have the job of my dreams and am engaged to my boyfriend Zachary. Life is good right now to say the least! You were very helpful to me in defining my goals which really propelled me into my current career. I work from home, have a flexible work schedule, and love what I do. I can't believe where I am now compared to where I was two and a half years ago when I felt so stuck and miserable in LA.

Ryan is a remarkable person, one whom approaches life with integrity and creativity. His insights have proven highly valuable; his advice priceless.

Robin Shanks, Manager for Event Sales and Strategic Planning at Purdue University

I quit my job, bought a career guidance book, signed up for a class, and am actively exploring graduate school programs. I also signed up for yoga teacher trainings and I'm exploring moving to a town that supports my interests and spirit more fully. Just having someone backing and encouraging me was helpful. It added fuel to my ideas and challenged me to take a risk.

Andrea Coffin, Teacher

Coaching has supported me to be more present in my daily life, and it has given me a safe space to "think out loud”. Because of this, I have been having higher-quality interactions with people. I have been consciously discerning how my life and habits are (or are not) aligned with my goals and values, and have been actively working to align my choices with those goals and values. I have learned how to prioritize daily intentions better. I have learned how to structure and budget my money more effectively. Thank you for helping me to get to this point. Thank you for your encouragement, your empathy and your understanding, as well as for challenging me and providing me valuable tools to move forward in many areas of my life.

My dream has come true. I married my life mate on August 9th. We are working on growing our family. I also finished the purchase of my second house, renovated it, and have enough passive income to stay home with kids. I thought you'd like to know you helped me get here.

Rachel Hope Donovan, Investor, Entrepreneur, Homemaker

I have become more aware of what I want in my life, clearer, more energized, and more hopeful. I am opening myself to relationship and yesterday I spent a lovely day with a nice man. I know that by bringing energy and attention to the areas of my life that need improvement I will once again become a powerful manifester!

Chandra Farnsworth, Executive Recruiter

I contacted Ryan to ask him about coaching in February, started working with him in April (officially) and now sit here in early July with a whole new life. Four days after I finished writing a description of my desired relationship, this described/imagined person appeared in real life. This relationship has been the most amazing experience of my life and I know this is only the beginning of the journey. Also, since I started working with Ryan I have graduated with a Master's degree, learned about the house buying process and moved into a newly purchased home, went on a vacation to Central America, remove myself from activities, networks and relationships that were not serving me, took control of my financial situation and retirement investments, and ran a half marathon. Coaching has helped to break down big visions into attainable goals and given me structure to actualize my goals in a step-by-step way. The biggest hurdles at first, that have been hindering me for years, were those beliefs that I couldn't have what I wanted. Having someone question those beliefs in a supportive, nurturing way made a difference. Working with Ryan has brought out the best in me because as I align with my values, intentions, and desires, everything else just falls away. The distractions and temptations don't seem so important. Living from this place of clear awareness feels confident, compassionate, and loving, towards myself and others. I know it is from this place that I can best serve the world.

Katie Bell, Facilitator of Transformative Learning

Ryan asks the questions that need asking in a direct, yet caring way. You can actually feel results beginning to unfold in your life as he leads you through each session! I can highly recommend Ryan to anyone who wants greater clarity in his or her life.

Garvin DeShazer, Writer

I really hesitated about doing the coaching from the beginning. In the end, I decided to do it because I felt I had to reach outside the regular comfort zone for an objective take. The coaching made me think about things more thoroughly and to take inventory of where I'd been, where I was, and where I wanted to go. This allowed me once again to believe in myself and get back in touch with my own unique spiritual path, talents, and desires; and to honor those as they should be honored. Because of this, creative juices are flowing once more and I feel free to follow that lead to further enhance what I already have. I am much less stressed about my choices. I have finished a project that I'd been putting off finishing for quite some time, a novel! I have begun to use contacts that I had either forgotten about or needed to develop and I have given myself permission, once again, to live the life I want to live. I have begun work on starting a literary agency of my own. I have created some fundraising contacts to create a job for myself with a nonprofit magazine, hopefully in the near future. The coaching helped me to stand back and look at what I already have and am, which gave me the energy and confidence to take action. Thanks Ryan.

Ryan is a very caring and intuitive person. He asks the right questions to help you to see things in a different light. He is a great listener, and has the knack of relating to you. He is very compassionate.

Lauren Eisenberg, Real Estate

I think he is a wonderful coach with a kind and open ear. I felt listened to and held. He created a safe space for me to hear myself voice my fears and helped me develop a realistic plan while I faced them.

Victoria Auer, Program Assistant, UCSF Center for Gender Equity

I am reporting on my homework. I was successful in raising over $15,000 for some of our immediate needs. I also have commitments for 1/3 of my salary (on a monthly basis for the next 12 months) and others who expressed some interest that will be following up with me later on. So, progress has been made. Thanks for all your help.

Julie Butler, Founder and Director, Rescue A Million

As I complete my coaching program I am thankful for the following results: 1) a much greater confidence in my photography skills; 2) a strategy to move forward with my work; 3) new alliances with other artists; 4) a greater appreciation for the work I do with youth; 5) greater confidence in my career path in education; 6) clarity of what I want, and do not want, in a relationship; and 7) better habits of taking care of myself and setting boundaries. Coaching helped with all of this. 

Ryan always brought me back to the original visions and goals, while also being very present to whatever was coming up in each session. It was also powerful for me to have an experience of being heard “completely” by a male. I feel excited and optimistic about my future as I am moving forward with new skills and perspectives.

Barbara Radford, High School Counselor, Photographer

What a great journey your program has been - both challenging and empowering. Some of the great benefits were improving my performance at work, becoming far more organized in my professional and personal life, getting more serious about my musical projects and recording my first EP, becoming more confident with women, having a wider sense of possibility, and an increased feeling of abundance. I also learned to celebrate my own successes along the journey. I am more aware of my health and overall state-of-being. Our work together also helped me to set some long term goals such as graduate school.  Coaching really helped me by having a support structure, as well as educational resources. Your knowledge, resourcefulness, and experience helped me achieve all of the above. Probably the biggest things were spending time in the beginning identifying values, identifying limiting self-beliefs, and doing the “bigger picture” work. It really put my whole life into perspective. 

Devinder Sahota, Musician and IT Consultant

I had never been coached before, but Ryan far surpassed my expectations for ways in which a coach could help me. He coached me on every component of my life and I think he has the skills to help anyone in their personal and/or professional life. I give my highest recommendation for Ryan. If you use him, I am confident you will not be disappointed.

Ken Greenstein, Attorney & Partner, Greenstein & McDonald

Coaching helped to catalyze a firmer sense of order in my life. The visualization exercises, values, & life goals helped to establish a framework to keep me in line with the things that are most important to me.
