Not only is Sanam incredibly kind, she's empathetic and so easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable sharing some of my struggles and faults. Very observant and smart, Sanam always provided me with factual information and knew on the spot how to address my needs.

I took advantage of the 30-day coaching program that was offered which really helped motivate and direct me towards keeping focused on my immediate goals. I plan on continuing to use her services to work on some of my long-term goals as well. It's nice to have someone give you direction when you're feeling a little lost. (At no time did I ever feel pressured to do anything I didn't want to do) So thanks!
