I have been working with RaShelle for the past several years and she has been instrumental to the growth and success of my business. She knows the intricacies of my business through our regular work together yet simultaneously provides essential, strategic advice from a fresh external perspective. RaShelle takes into account the business as a whole as well as all of its individual components, and her advice and input has been invaluable. I highly recommend RaShelle as a creative business coach—after your first session you will see why she stands out in her field.

This group helped me by transforming how I thought about my business. By going through each strategic session of the manifesto, I was able to evolve from an order taker designer to a creative strategic partner to my clients. Added value and defined clarity helped me really understand how I want to define my business mission for not only professional success but for personal gratification – and helped me grow my business.
Mark Boydston
Freelance Designer
I had “lost my way” in finding work and meaning in my life professionally during these challenging economic times. RaShelle got my bearings back through her one-on-one sessions revealing my true passions as a creative as well as a person and developing an action plan to support it. The plan has not only secured me employment, but also charts out a vision that I’m very excited about.

RaShelle is a powerful and creative woman. She has and continues to help me realize and grow my business. I highly recommend her for the boost in communication, creativity and work flow you've been looking for in your business!
Laura Zollar
Zollar Fine Art
As a fine artist, I require a mutually creative mind and rapport to motivate me in my business vision. RaShelle has displayed just the right subtlety and focus to work with even a mind like mine. She's gracefully found the lever to move the mountain, and moving it is!

RaShelle helped me make order out of a fragmented plan to redefine and evolve my business goals.

No one understands better than RaShelle the challenges that Creative Professionals face when trying to enhance their creativity, build their business, and chart a course for future direction. Her one-on-one coaching as well as group workshops are highly effective at removing the obstacles to progress while creating a practical blueprint to achieve success on several levels. I would whole-heartedly recommend RaShelle to independent designers as well as business owners interested in taking their career to a whole new level.

Working with RaShelle was a pleasure. We were able to communicate better, align our goals and take deliberate action to achieve them. I'd recommend it to anyone feeling stuck or ready to grow.
Rosemary Murphy
Murphy Design
After many years of running a small graphic design studio, reading articles and books about the design business and attending seminars, working one-on-one with RaShelle as a coach seemed like a logical next step and a great opportunity. RaShelle has a specialized understanding of this business and is a skillful listener. She provided great support and was good at challenging my approach. Deep down, I think we all have our own solutions but, the problem is getting to the essence of what you want and knowing when you get there. This coaching scenario is a unique, I can't imagine a relationship like this with any friend, relative or colleague.

Sometimes the best solution to kick starting your business is to pay a professional to do the kicking. RaShelle's talents lie in her ability to keep her clients moving forward and being accountable for their actions. I've come further as a business owner after six months of working with RaShelle than six years of figuring it out for myself. RaShelle is indeed worth the investment.
Tony Colombini

RaShelle has been a great asset to my practice. Our time together has helped me professionally and personally develop clarity of purpose and focus in communicating with clients and colleagues. Our investment in RaShelle’s services have paid for themselves many times over with new opportunities.

RaShelle is a true inspiration to all of us who have been fortunate enough to work with her. Her passion is present in every moment of her coaching, as is her deep concern for creating success for every individual or business that she 'touches'.

RaShelle has helped me tremendously clean out the mental clutter that gets me stuck. Working with her, my personal foundation has been strengthened so that I am free to pursue my dreams! She has been integral in helping me focus and get what I want out of life!
Steven Morris
In both business and personal ways, I grew in leaps and bounds with the coaching assistance of RaShelle. We delved into areas that I wouldn't have dared to go on my own. This process of discovery allowed for deeper understanding of myself, my business and my path.

Whether you are refocusing your business or considering taking on a new creative venture, RaShelle will guide you through the process. After six months of consultations with RaShelle, my business partner of ten years and I finally realized what we needed to do to get back on track - dissolve our partnership. If you are open to the truth, and disciplined enough to seek it, you will not be disappointed with the results.

Thought provoking and motivating workshop. Taking the time to ask better questions and spending the time to answer them has been tremendously valuable. Time well spent.
Jenna L.

This session was great. Thanks! This session confirmed that what I am doing right now is not what I want to be doing. Fear has definitely been holding me back. It was a relief to see that I’m not the only one and now I’m seeing the steps I can take to go after what I really DO want.
Kristin H.

Wow! Really loved this today! Getting clear and defining my future goals is on my radar now. I’m excited to move forward with my vision and CLEAR timelines. This makes future changes less scary.
Carey

I thought this was a great workshop. It would be great to know what I want instead of just going about life living paycheck to paycheck. I’m excited to put this process to use!
Marie
workshop participant
Wow. It’s crazy that I’ve had the answers the whole time but needed to be asked these right questions. It’s so valuable to take the time to ask myself these questions and I wouldn’t have known until today. You are a great speaker and made us feel comfortable to express ourselves and do this internal investigating. Thank you!
