Success Stories
"Carolyn is a wonderful coach and mentor. In the several months I have had her as a coach, I have seen more growth in my management skills than in probably the last five years of practical experience and other study. Carolyn provides the perfect combination of directness and support. While not hesitating to say what needs to be said, she frames her comments with an understanding of me as a person, providing encouragement and assistance for me to move to the next level of what I want to do. This has been of tremendous help to me, both personally and professionally, and I highly recommend her as a coach." - Genie Dee, Executive Director
"Over a period of seven years studying with Carolyn Foster, I appreciated her not only as an outstanding teacher, but also a remarkable consultant and motivator for many of the class members of which she built a large and loyal following. Carolyn is a woman of great charm and intelligence, which serves her well in the role as a personal advisor and consultant. In my fifty-plus years in public education, I have seen few if any professionals to match her abilities. I recommend her to any individual or organization that is searching for the BEST in her field." - Robert M. Culp, Consultant; West Valley, Mission College District
"Just wanted to say thanks again for all of your coaching and invaluable help in getting me unstuck and moving forward in a new direction. You are excellent at what you do – you listen, offer amazing insights, challenge when you need to, affirm always, and raise new ways of viewing obstacles and opportunities. I greatly enjoyed working with you." - L. Gee, Organizational Development Consultant
"I have enjoyed working with Carolyn Foster. She has allowed me space to explore what I instinctively feel the need to explore, offering suggestions, exercises and guidance along the way. Many of these are resources I will return to many times. I really appreciate her intuitive and creative perspectives. If you're looking for support and guidance that has qualities of insight, intuition, perspective and creativity, work with Carolyn Foster." - Kevin F.
"What a complete pleasure and joy for my first retreat ever to be led by the amazingly giving, thoughtful, and humorous Carolyn Foster! I can't thank you enough for all you put into this weekend to create such a comfortable, welcoming, and safe environment in which to 'be who I need to be.' I am full of gratitude and look forward to spending more time with you and the fabulous women you attract." - Peggy Argus, Coach
"Carolyn's retreats are a wonderful occasion to rest, reflect, and grow. The writing exercises provide an opportunity for self-expression, while the small group discussions allow for helpful feedback in a supportive environment. I always come away feeling refreshed, supported, and renewed." - Genie Dee, Executive Director
