Coaching Client Testimonials

Real Clients. Real Results.

"During my time with Aleta, I have completely evolved as an executive leader. I had set out to improve the effectiveness of my communication with my peers and upward as a member of the executive leadership team and that now feels like a skill that is old hat for me. I look forward to every session with Aleta because I know that she will have actionable, concrete feedback to help me work through whatever is challenging me -- and she will hold me accountable for actions toward addressing a new set of challenges before our next session. She also helps to give me perspective when I am too hard on myself, enabling me to look at situations from different angles to give myself more grace."

"When I started in May 2022, I was very much new in my position and I thought I would be proving myself in the position by doing everything myself and in a such a speed. Everything was urgent in my mind. I had 0 patience for anything. My analytical skills were not developed and I thought that only what I'm doing is urgent and important. Looking back now, I can say that I was very hard to work with. After 8 months of coaching, I now know how to control the stress and the workload that's coming to me in a day. I learned how to be an active listener, how to manage time better and how to be open with my subordinates when it comes to my expectations from them. I learned how to "clean" my day from just tasks, so I can focus on what's important. I became calm and more confident in people management. "

"My experience with Uplifting Leadership was extremely helpful and useful. The feedback provided gave me clear roadmap to follow and establish priorities among those pending items. Communication was always easy and extremely accessible, which speaks on a genuine interest on their behalf to help their clients succeed and be better HR administrators."

"I feel invincible after each session with Aleta. And that is not a hyperbole. She raises awareness, unveils the cloudiness, reframes challenges, provides a variety of tools and methods like MacGyver, debunks all the “shoulds”, and moves you towards your intentions and goals. Aleta empowers you, whether you’re the CEO, VP of Finance, Director of Ops, or Head of HR, she meets you at where you are. She helps you clear your vision and pave the path in the direction you want to go. She has been able to gel our leadership team in ways we couldn’t imagine done within a short period of time. She is not just my executive coach, she has become my life coach. Whether I’m having a rough or a successful week, I look forward to the warmest and kindest “Hi” from Aleta."

Each conversation brings a new lesson and skill I can apply to every aspect of my life so that I can reach any goal I dream up. Aleta comes from a place of understanding, experience, care, and trust. I look forward to each session because at the end of each I feel empowered and unstoppable in my pursuit of happiness. She will help you realize what a badass woman you are especially when at first you don't see it in yourself."
