“Working with Caryn in 2019 was exactly what I needed personally and professionally. She helped me refocus my attention to a couple core areas of the most important things in my life. Through the clarity of where we are heading and an intentional mindset each day, it has not only increased production but also magnified the enjoyment of life and work for myself and my team. Through her collaborative conversations, she is able to help you pull out some important, internal thoughts and feelings. From there, you are able to get laser focused on what is most important. For me, that was/is to become the best version of myself and to live in the moment each day. I’ve truly enjoyed the time that we have spent together and look forward to working with her in 2020!”
