TESTIMONIALS
Giovanna has been instrumental in helping me find my way through a period of significant change and opportunity. Her coaching sessions provided the forum for me to explore what might be holding me back from fulfilling my potential and to identify areas in which to grow and develop.
Having worked with Giovanna as my former colleague, I can attest to her natural coaching skills. Her finely tuned sensitivity and well-developed antennas for atmosphere and social relations allow her to create insightful analyses and feedback. Her innate empathy and capacity to understand the emotions and perspectives of others make her a naturally born coach. To me it made perfect sense that Giovanna became a certified coach and counselor, as this was already written in the stars. I'm sure word of mouth advertising will make her practice flourish and foster the mental health of many.
Giovanna has an unwavering presence during the sessions. From the moment we started, I felt like I had her undivided attention. She remembered and referenced comments I had made in previous sessions, which created a sense of continuity and trust. Giovanna provided me with practical strategies and techniques that boosted my confidence and enabled me to establish meaningful connections
Giovanna managed to create a safe atmosphere for my very personal topics in the consulting sessions within a very short time.
During the coaching, she also has a very good sense for finding the parallels between the current situation from the past (professional as well as private),with her questioning technique and thus work on the topic holistically.
can confidently say that it was a game-changer for me (on a personal level) and for my project. From the very first session, Giovanna demonstrated a genuine interest in my business model, listened carefully to my concerns and made relevant questions. But also, Giovanna showed an exceptional understanding of the challenges I was facing and might face once the product is live.
Giovanna is a great coach and I deeply value the time we have been spending together and the progress she has helped me make in my working life. I wouldn't be this far along in my goals or have this much courage to push forward without her support. With her encouragement and her genuine belief in me I have made more progress in the last 12 months than I would have dreamed of. Giovanna is an excellent listener. She has helped me realise that I can successfully achieve any required objectives and get the results needed.
