Richa was amazing at helping me connect my long-term vision, current setting, and core values in ways that boosted my motivation and broadened my perspective. Her warmth, sincerity, respectfulness, insight, and ability to re-frame my perspective were all incredibly valuable. Richa combines comfort, insight, and reflection to get you over the hump along with her dedicated, kind, and emotionally intelligent approach. Richa is a wonderful coach. I highly recommend her!
Richa is a gem - a superb coach! She balances warmth and an unassuming presence with an ability to stretch and challenge clients to do their best. We had 10 sessions over the course of a 3-month coaching engagement, during which Richa helped me remain clear and focused on my professional goal while remaining open to anything that came up along the way. She’s both efficient and endlessly supportive. I think of Richa as a quiet force; she helped challenge me and expand my own thinking without ever pushing. I’m grateful for Richa’s coaching; she's truly fantastic, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.
With so many aspects of my life demanding my time and attention, it felt hard to devote the amount of energy needed to be successful in each area. Richa made me feel heard and respected and truly created a safe space to dig deep into obstacles and uncover underlying feelings. I truly believe my time with Richa has transformed multiple areas of my life. She has a warm personality and truly believes in the potential of her clients. It’s so nice to set forth on your goals knowing that there is someone always rooting for you and excited to hear about your progress.
Richa is an amazing coach. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a good coach or interested in exploring and learning more about what a coach can help you – at work, in life and get ideas how to become a better version of yourself.
Richa’s ability to listen to me without judgment and to synthesize information that I’ve shared with her from various sessions, made me feel seen and heard. She is validating and always affirms my concerns. She challenged me respectfully in order to help me to grow and to adhere to my action plans, all for me to meet my goals. I’d recommend all to procure her services, especially if they need that extra push to achieve success in their lives.
Working with Richa as a coach was incredibly valuable for me as a professional, a friend, and a dad. Richa did such an excellent job listening and getting to know me in the early sessions and was able to use those conversations to steer us to helpful topics in other sessions. I left every session with some actionable item and learned a little about myself in the process. Working with Richa helped me with balance, mental health, and in many day-to-day work challenges. It was an excellent experience and I would 100% do it again!
Richa is an insightful coach who brings out your best. Throughout my 12-month coaching engagement, Richa's curiosity and observations heightened my self-awareness of strengths and opportunities, accelerating my path to achieve my coaching goals. Her direct, conversational, and empathetic coaching style, mixed with some humor, was a perfect blend. I'm a stronger, more authentic, leader and person after my time with Richa and I highly recommend her as a coach.
Coaching is about finding the power within yourself, about unlocking your own potential, and about building your strengths into strategic superpowers. That's what I learned in my 6 months with Coach Richa. She didn't try to change me or force my path, she listened to me and heard me and helped me hear myself, too. She helped me see my own strengths and helped me find new capacity in myself to handle adversity. Feeling true to yourself is so powerful and so confidence-building and it unlocks so many other benefits in your life, and it's worth exploring with Coach Richa because she can help you find a path to that self-enlightenment. Plus, she's a lot of fun and is a fountain of wisdom and ideas. I highly recommend her coaching to anyone that is looking for more confidence and success in their professional life, or even just to feel more empowered and comfortable in their own skin. Thanks to Richa’s guidance, I discovered latent abilities I never knew existed.
