This powerful perspective helped me look at challenges as new opportunities for growth.”
“Yolanda has been very helpful in this journey to self discovery and growth. Through very sharp questions and reflections she provided a space for me to step back and evaluate my thoughts processes, helping me to notice my blind spots. We used a lot of metaphors and imageries to concretise some of my discoveries. It was particularly impressive as she always manages to find an image to describe the irony of some beliefs I have been holding that were clearly unhelpful to my growth.”

Rather than “instructing” you what to do and giving you “model templates” to improve your Linkin profiles (like what other coaches promised), she was good at listening, better at asking you self-probing questions, and best at offering you advice and insights that makes you think and evaluate yourself. I have benefitted immensely from these sessions and would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs career mentoring to lift themselves up to the next level.

This experience was life-transforming, to say the very least, and introduced me to the person within, who I had always ignored. This is the power of Yolanda’s coaching.

I would definitely recommend having a chat with Yolanda if you want to reflect on your career.”
“As we started the session, Yolanda mentioned that it sounded like I had ‘weaved’ uncertainties and questions in terms of my career development in one big mess- making that I was not enjoying spending any time on my job search at all, avoidant and stressed about finding the right job.
In one hour, Yolanda was able to help me come up with simple steps for myself to take action on, while most importantly making me realize that I was making it a heavy and very serious task.
