Wind under my wings is exactly what I gained from working with Lyedie Geer. During a period of transition in my life, Lyedie’s wisdom and guidance helped me to establish my footing so I could take off with verve. Throughout our work together I felt an inner groundedness building gradually after each meeting which strengthened my trust in myself, helped me reclaim my sense of power and reminded me of the excitement of possibility in my life. Her style of coaching always made me feel like I was leading the way with her support and guidance as momentum for every step. I know I will carry the tools learned from Lyedie’s coaching for a long time.
