“I found Carolyn an inspiring mentor and a positive source of energy who instantly earns trust by willingly sharing her professional experience and providing insightful feedback.

The kind of individual who effortlessly builds a rich communication matrix between client and delivery teams so that the product gets built on time and budget. She exhibits tremendous adaptation skills so she can jump on any issue brought to her and suggest next steps, using her sense of humour to dissipate any tensions.

Managers often stand at the crossroads of teams and need a sounding board, a safe place to share and learn from others in similar roles. Carolyn created that space for us across time zones. Through active listening she became an efficient escalation point, providing tailored support to each one of us and bringing learning back to all through open dialog.”

“I reached out to Carolyn to ask if I may visit her in Austin, as I needed the support and compassion of a caring friend to help me process some painful feelings of loss after a miscarriage.

I realize this is a heavy burden to bear for anyone, and I am forever grateful for her graceful nature and true friendship. When I arrived she was open and welcoming, making me feel loved and cared for. She helped me learn how to re-nourish my mind, body and spirit with good food, deep conversations speckled with laughter and silliness.

Our visit concluded with honoring the full moon together and singing her praises. I will never forget her warm and gentle nature in my time of need and hope that one day I may be able to return the favor whenever she calls upon me.”

“I’m always interested in personal evolution and Carolyn has always been a person I could jump right into that with. She feels safe and I know that I can trust being vulnerable and authentic with her.

I delight in opportunities to connect, knowing that she will inevitably plant some seeds that will flourish when the time is right and I am ready.

I appreciate that she is very observant and sees things about me that no one else catches. She is able to give name to them and bring them to light, which feels like freedom! Most of all I appreciate her presence, which makes me feel honored and valuable.“
