Testimonials

“Coaching with Daniela has helped open me up to different avenues that I felt were closed. I have been able to return to unfinished tasks instead of feeling like a failure and meet new tasks and life decisions with more confidence. I have learned what is right for myself and how to stick to it, instead of what others think is right for me.

I have been able to learn about myself and gain the confidence to do things that I never thought that I could.”
- Amanda, San Jose, California

“Dany's approach to coaching had a significant impact on one member of my marketing team. Her vast and diverse professional experiences enable Dany to understand the individual’s opportunities for development and focus them on enhancing their skills. Even a year later, the lessons learned from Dany are still being used today. Definitely worth the investment.”

"Coaching hat für mich bisher bewirkt, mir über meine Ziele bewusst zu werden und diese nun mit der erforderlichen Nachhaltigkeit anzusteuern. Es hilft sehr, von jemandem Unterstützung zu erhalten, der aufgrund von Lebenserfahrung, Wissen in professionellem Coaching und dem Gespür für das Wesentliche die vorhandenen Blockaden zu überwinden hilft."

“I am getting control of my life and identifying what I really enjoy and want to focus on. I've been much happier, because I am making progress on things. I have more energy to devote to my family and my career and a better sense of balance of the two. The coaching calls give me an outlet to delve into what really are my underlying concerns and help identify ways I can deal with them. The calls also keep me moving ahead because there is a time set aside each week to set goals, review accomplishments and just think about me.

Dany is a great listener. She asks the questions that get to the heart of things. She cheers you along in a genuine way letting you know that you are accomplishing more than you think you are. She provides perspective and introduces new tools along the way at appropriate times."
- Client, Aptos, California

"Dany's coaching has greatly improved the way I deal with difficult issues at work and at home. I have often let frustration get in the way of developing more productive relationships. Now I try to see what is keeping me from acting in a way that will get me what I want. It is refreshing to look at things with a different perspective.

Dany's dedication and commitment, as well as her cheerfulness encourage me through both difficult moments and victories. It's important to note that she never tells me what to do; instead, she requests actions that will put me closer to achieving my goals - the ones that are really important to me."
- Erica, Tempe, Arizona

"Dany is Amazing. Her thought provoking, targeted input opened up a whole new way of thinking for me. Prior to talking to her, I was merely 'spinning my wheels' like the proverbial hamster in his wheel.
 
Now I'm prepared to take specific, concrete steps leading to a 'balance future' on my terms. You Can Have it ALL!"
- Darlene, San Diego, California

"Thanks again for everything. Not just for looking at this proposal, but coaching me to this point. I'm not sure I would have gotten to this point yet without your helping me assess what I really want. Not too long ago, I was ready to quit, and then when my husband changed careers, I felt a bit stuck and now I'm really energized. You had a major part in that!"
- Client, Aptos, California

"I just wanted to drop you a quick note/ feedback about one of your Alumni Homecoming speakers, Daniela Bryan. I heard her speak last year during homecoming and attended her breakout session, where I thought she did an excellent job. It took me about six months, but I have finally contracted with her to be my coach. 
 
I cannot say enough great things about her since I have been working with her. She has really provided a lot of insight in my professional and personal life. I have received a lot of helpful feedback on my career change, and she has helped me outline my goals & objectives for accomplishing this. She has been very motivational in helping me make changes in my life.
 
Anyway, I just wanted to send along some positive feedback. She is the type of speaker I think adds value to the alumni career events."
- Jeff, Sterling Heights, Michigan

“We have moved to Florida on Jan 1st and Carlos has started his position with Tyco right after. I cannot tell you how happy we are to have made this move and it all got started through our coaching sessions.
 
I had felt this need for change for a long time but it's hard to figure it out alone exactly what the source of the problem was. It started with the job and then the location/climate and finally the whole lifestyle that was not what we wanted for the future, both for us and for our kids. Carlos was more content and comfortable with everything and now he's really happy to have made this move and more confident about taking charge when things are not going as he wants.
 
We really like Florida and for some reason I feel at home here from the start, such a different feeling from up north... I am happier and more content with things than I've been in years.
 
Thank you again for all your help with both Carlos and myself through this
journey of helping us discover what would really makes us happy and of obtaining the confidence to get there.”
- Lilian and Carlos, Boca Raton, Florida
 
"I have been a client of Dany's for over a year and cannot say enough great things about her. She has helped me take massive leaps forward in my life and guided me through some of the most rewarding, frightening, worthwhile, terrifying, glorious moments in my career. Working with dbcoach is the best thing I have EVER done. I highly recommend it."
- Joe, Los Angeles, California
 
"I just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for our conversation today. You have no idea how much your words, attitude, and support have helped me ALREADY. I'm really looking  forward to continuing our conversations throughout the next 6 months.
  
Enjoy the trip with your son and his classmates; sounds like it will be a wonderful experience. It's nice to see that you are able to be "Selfish...with a big S". I'm sure it's very helpful for both you AND all your clients.
 
Thanks again, Dany! I always feel so energized after our time together. Take care!”
- Z., Santa Cruz

One client's story

Read how coaching with Daniela had a positive impact on Lynn from Atlanta, Georgia in only 3 months!

Dear Dany,

Thank you for your willingness to work with me as my Coach! In just a few short months, it has already been an incredible experience!

When I think of why I hired you, there are a few reasons that come to mind. First, having worked with you in business, I already had a tremendous respect for your ability to work with people of all levels and to motivate them to achieve their goals. I have seen you work with senior managers as well as entry level sales people, and you have a way of helping people figure out what it is that they really want to achieve. You have a positive attitude that is contagious and that shouts confidence and success. Consequently, others feel very comfortable in coming to you for advice and direction, including me!

Coaching with you over the past three months has already had a huge impact on both my personal and professional life. I understand now more than ever how expressing my needs and setting my own boundaries can not only gain greater respect from others, but makes my life more satisfying, less stressful and allows me to focus on those things in my life that really matter. It has also made a tremendous difference in how I handle personal and business situations that come up every day- in helping me to ask the right types of questions to get the information I need vs. making assumptions that many times lead to frustration and undesirable results. The change that coaching has created in me as a person over such a short timeframe is amazing. I feel that I have been on a “journey” that has allowed me to explore and discover my needs, and consequently has transformed how I handle my day to day life. I’m happier, less stressed and more confident than ever about going after what I want and how to get there.

Dany, thanks for all of your excellent direction and for making me realize that it’s OK to throw away some of the “shoulds” and to go after what I really want! I look forward to more of the “journey” and to some wonderful things happening in my life!

Sincerely,

Lynn
