Her central message emphasizes that the true power in coaching lies not in the methods or tools used, but in the coaches themselves.

Real coaching magic comes from the coach's clarity, honesty, love, courage, presence, and personal authenticity. By continually coaching, reflecting, and embracing each session, coaches can truly transform lives.
