LOVE FROM CLIENTS

KELLEY F, Washington D.C -

"It’s real, raw, soul-stimulating work."

This work is life changing. It’s real, raw, soul-stimulating work.

When I first started working with Elana, there were a few parts of my life where I was
seeking positive change - most notably, my relationship with myself.

I have always prided myself on being self-aware, but I had no idea how much I had to learn
about myself until I embarked on this journey with Elana.

I discovered how much I let fear hold me back from being the person I wanted to be
and allowed it to drive nearly every decision in my life.

Elana is nothing short of inspirational.

She approaches this work with passion and love, and allows
her beautiful spirit to shine through every single session.

She challenged me to take a step back from the life I was living and ask myself,
“What do I want? Who do I want to be?”, then she dared me to be THAT person
- to show up every single day and live the life I always wanted to live.

She held me accountable for my progress and awakened me to my own strength, beauty, and passion.

Most importantly, she empowered me to be the creator of my own life.

The lessons and tools I learned from Elana have helped me to continue to make progress on my own.

I see the world differently now. Even on the hard days, the emotional days, the frustrating days,
I view every single day as a new opportunity to step out of my comfort zone and be the person I want to be.

“Her uncanny ability to address the root cause rather than try "fix" something, means long term shifts in old habits.”

I started working with Elana at a difficult time in my career - I wasn't really open to trusting in anyone,
let alone a complete stranger! Also, did I really "need" a coach?

Elana is trained as a professional coach, but what makes her truly unique is that she sees her clients holistically, understanding inherently how so much interconnects, and journeys with her clients to uncover it all.

Her uncanny ability to address the root cause rather than try "fix" something, means long term shifts in old habits.

It is through working with her, I have started to bet on myself more, and where i would typically withdraw because of discomfort/unease, I 'invite" dialogue.

She empowers with firmness, but also grace and gentleness; there is never any judgement,
but rather joy and celebration.

I am so grateful for having worked with her, and hope to again in the future.

"...an excellent partner in your life journey..."

Prior to coaching with Elana, I felt a consistent external pressure to “succeed” and “accomplish”.

It was an exhausting way to live and I never felt as though I was accomplishing what I truly wanted. She helped me to determine what I really wanted in my life and helped me to find the courage within myself to focus all of my attention on fulfilling my dreams without numerous and time consuming contingency plans.

Once out of my own way, I was able to take small and significant steps each day that
have amounted to a substantial accomplishment over the last few months.

Elana is intuitive to your needs and honest with her words.

She can compassionately praise your hard work and bring you back to task if you begin to stray.

She is an excellent partner in your life journey and is clearly someone who practices what she teaches.
Unafraid of the tough questions, she will be able to shepherd you through your process
as you step into your own truth and happiness

ALEXANDRA P, New York

"…I feel empowered and have found my voice …"

I have grown (up!) so much both personally and professionally as a result of my coaching sessions with Elana.
Elana has helped me to find my confidence and be my authentic self.
Elana’s wisdom, emotional intelligence, tough-love and practical approach
make her a truly wonderful guru/mentor/coach.

I feel empowered and have found my voice thanks to Elana and can
see and feel the results in both my career and personal life.

I think this is something everyone could greatly benefit from!
It’s honestly improved my outlook and whole life in such a positive way!

"Elana opened my eyes to another way of being…"

The day I started working with Elana was as transformative to my life as the day I fell in love with my soulmate.
Elana opened my eyes to another way of being that not only helped me get clear on what I wanted in life and the "how's" of creating it; but more importantly, to choosing that life through a lens of joy and fulfilment instead of "never enough."

My relationships, professional success, spiritual connection, and physical well-being have thrived exponentially since starting my work with Elana.

Her combination of powerful questions and nurturing support brought me life-changing breakthroughs,
and I am in awe of her compassion, grace, and power as a coach.

“Elana really has a gift. She is exceptional at reading between the lines…
hearing what you’re not saying...and distilling it down.”


Before working with Elana, I wasn’t even clear what I wanted for this new career role. She helped me step into fully declaring what I wanted. Because of Elana, I was able to express to my company how much I wanted to travel,
the companies I wanted to invest in, and exactly what I wanted my leadership role to look like.

Elana got me out of indecision paralysis and finally able to trust myself.
Rather than being the follower of direction...I became the leader.

“Elana's a rare gem in the coaching world, because she equally understands
how to manage professional and personal satisfaction.”


Elana is an excellent exec coach and mentor. I came to her with a few really ambitious goals and she helped me to more than achieve them. Her style is holistic - she looks at you as the whole person, and works with you on a plan of action that helps you both achieve your professional goals AND helps you to actualize to a higher level of who you really are. In my six months working with her, I got coaching on how to achieve my two stated professional goals, and I hit those goals, ahead of schedule. The unexpected, hugely positive surprise, is that Elana also taught me through numerous exercises how to fully understand, be aware of, and embrace who I am, leading to new levels of satisfaction. Elana's a rare gem in the coaching world, because she equally understands how to manage professional and personal satisfaction. Those who are thinking about coaching, or choosing between coaching options, should really consider getting to know her better!
