Collaboration to achieve your aspirations

Yolanda has been an invaluable source of advice, motivation, and guidance throughout the years in various areas of my life including career, relationships (both professional and personal) and several major purchases.  She effectively identified my strengths and helped me to better establish my brand and value proposition.  She equipped me with tools that gave me the confidence to assert my worth throughout the interview and negotiation process on more than one occasion. Having lost my mother shortly before our meeting, Yolanda went above and beyond with me and simultaneously operated as a coach, mentor, and friend.  She has been relentlessly supportive and empowering while being realistic and straight forward.  She believes in the potential of her clients and helped me to achieve several goals.  

Yolanda is a great personal and professional coach. As a new non-profit leader, she has encouraged and guided me as I developed our organization’s brand building on the organization’s past successes. She’s excellent at connecting people and growing relationships to the benefit of multiple organizations. She does all this with energy, passion, and enthusiasm. I’m excited to get to work with and know her. She’s an amazing person!

As a highly respected Executive and HR Professional, Yolanda was the first person I reached out to for guidance when I made the decision to make a career change from Healthcare Operations Management to Human Resources. She willingly provided sound advice and coaching on next steps regarding networking, resources to become educated in Human Resources, resume building along with connecting me with potential employers. Her expertise in Human Resources coupled with her Creative Coaching and Consulting, was the perfect combination to assist me to not only enter the HR field, but become a certified HR professional, receive promotions, create and build strong relationships with HR colleagues and community members. Almost 5 years and several positions later, Yolanda continuously supports, provides coaching and consulting in whatever area I need. Although we have been friends for well over 20 years, I truly appreciate and respect her professionalism, creativity, knowledge and expertise she’s provided that has helped me not only to grow professionally, but also personally.

I would like to express my gratitude for the years of life coaching that Yolanda has provided. She has been a client of mine for a span of 30 plus years and has provided life changing advice.  Within those 30 years she has always given great direction and advice to many of my clients as well.  Yolanda’s God given talent is like none I’ve ever encountered. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to move forward in their lives in an empowering way.

I have had the pleasure of working with Yolanda for the past 20 years and any organization that hires her gets a wealth of professional skill, dedication, and ability to work with individuals with different backgrounds and competencies.

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to you, Yolanda, for all of the consulting and coaching that you gave me during my job search. With your assistance, I am so grateful to have landed a wonderful position at a great company!

There are a few special moments in life when you know beyond the shadow of doubt your life has been changed for the better. For me, one of those moments came during a life changing coaching session with Yolanda Reed. During our conversation, Yolanda thoughtfully listened as I shared a wide range of challenges I faced both personally and professionally. Yolanda listened carefully before provided very tangible and actionable feedback. Her insights were spot on and equipped me with the tools necessary to navigate the challenges in front of me. Then, in a moment of deep wisdom, she intuitively peered beneath the surface into an unspoken brokenness. Without hesitation she prophetically spoke the life changing words I will never forget, “You are the light, but you don’t believe it.” I immediately burst into tears because for one of the first times in my life at my core I felt seen, heard, and valued. Yolanda is exceptional! She cuts through the BS and noise to deliver the hard truths we didn’t even know we needed to hear. She provides best-in-class wisdom and actionable guidance on this healing journey. I give her my highest recommendation and would strongly encourage anyone to leverage her incredible services!
