CLIENT Testimonials
Hello :) If you’re here, maybe you’re almost ready to book that Discovery Call but need a little encouragement, or maybe you’re just curious about the work I do. Either way, I’ve asked my clients to answer a few questions for me after wrapping up our programs, and here are some of their answers.
I wanted to keep it as authentic as possible, so you’ll find the testimonials below, displayed as Questions and Answers.
“The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been…
“My morning and evening routine and how much they have evolved for the better. This seems small but it's what helps me achieve the work/life balance (although I'm still working on it!) as well as create time for myself. I'm 100% more aware of the importance and prioritization of the routines in my life and I notice that I'm happier when I do them.”
-Mel, Belgium
“I was able to create a daily movement practice, which has been absolutely pivotal to me! It allows me to feel present, connected with my mind and body, and gives me the opportunity to release the stress I carry with me throughout the day.”
-Maia, California
“That I have been constant with my daily yoga and have been feeling stronger ever since.”
-Alexandra, Venezuela
“I am able to understand myself way more than before, to go deeper and I trust myself.”
-Capu, France
“My level of motivation to pursue my goals, now it just comes naturally to me as a result of being constant and creating habits.”
-Ana, Dubai
“My organization is by far what has changed the most. And because my organization is so much better I can have also a healthier lifestyle because of this. Win-Win!”
-Bea, France
“a more balanced mindset. I feel like I can better see myself and my thoughts from the outside and thereby control myself better. Something in my mind has shifted and I now feel like I am better suited to eat a piece of chocolate without necessarily going on a crazy binge trip.”
-Karoline, Norway
“The most significant overall change I have noticed has been…
“An increase in my joy. Nati has a beautiful gift of knowing what questions to ask to better know yourself. Through her many wonderful questions, I realized I was settling in my career and it sucked the joy out of me. I made a huge decision to quit my job in Korea and move back to the US. Even when I was unemployed for a few months, I knew I made the right decision to leave when my joy started coming back. Coming back and being able to grow my relationship with my family and close friends was worth the change.”
-Monica, USA
“How I speak to myself. That little voice in my head used to be a bit of a downer, self-deprecating and very insecure. I have grown so much more aware of how I treat myself, and have learnt to be kinder with my words. I think it's almost like a little bit of Nati's voice meshing with my voice in there, like I now talk to myself the way I would my best friend.”
-Laura, New York
“My outlook on my goals and objectives. Before starting the Coaching Program with Nati, I felt that many of my goals were unattainable and frustration was my regular daily companion. Today I feel that I can set short, attainable goals that work for me and feel that I am moving forward without pressure from my future me.”
-Kamil, Chile
“The way I see life! When I started, my goal of losing weight was all I could think about, now I have learned that there is so much more: I learned that I am beautiful, smart and that I am capable of everything I want to accomplish.”
-Alexandra, Venezuela
“The most significant change for me was developing a gratitude practice. Every day I check-in with myself and cultivate intentional gratitude and self-love. It has changed my outlook towards myself, my body, my mind, and how all these different parts work together to help me be the best version of myself!”
-Maia, California
“Change in my habits - Planning, sticking to a schedule/ goals as much as possible, but also being conscious that there is a balance.”
-Ana, Dubai
“That I finally see the importance and the effect of dedicating time and working on myself. Whether it's creating a routine or pushing myself to cook or exercise more, I now recognize that this is an essential part of feeling better and a key element to self-love. For this reason, I now find myself creating and prioritizing time that is specifically dedicated to me - whether it's 5 mins or 1h.”
-Mel, Belgium
“"My happiness, my self care & my own well being. I've been told this again this morning I look happier! And I am, I feel less pressured by things I can't control, and keep my focus on things I change."
-Bea, France
“A happier and more peaceful version of myself. I feel more confident and empowered to make decisions or take control over the areas in my life that I used to struggle with. I still struggle sometimes, but I now have a better understanding of how everything is connected and how some areas in life affect other areas. I have a better understanding of my cravings; I can easier identify where the cravings are coming from, and I am better suited to face them by using the tools that I’ve learned. Although I’m still a work in progress, I accept my situation and I am more at ease with where and who I am.”
-Karoline, Norway
“What surprised me the most / made me the happiest about joining this Coaching Program was:
“Honestly, the biggest surprise was looking back and recognizing all the progress I have made. Life was tough for me when I first started with Nati 9 months ago. In those moments it felt as though nothing had changed. But now looking back, I can see how much I have grown to know and love myself. The notes Nati takes help in seeing those differences. Having Nati's support and encouragement made all the difference in this coaching program.”
-Monica, USA
“As a disclaimer, I've known Nati for a long time and I always try to support my friends in their endeavors. I did the program because I was feeling curious, a bit depressed over quarantine, and I knew I wanted to make some changes in my life, so I thought, why not give it a try? Looking back, we did so many exercises that helped me understand why I am the way I am, and there was a lot of trial and error trying to figure out what was the best way for me to achieve my goals. I felt very vulnerable, and it was a lot of introspective work sometimes, but I feel that it really paid off. If you had told me six months ago that I would have the state of mind that I do today, I wouldn't have believed it. I think the most surprising thing for me was that, what started as a way to support my friend, really ended up as a great investment in myself.”
-Laura, New York
“What surprised and pleased me the most was the comfort I felt in each of the sessions and with each of the tasks. It is not easy, in the midst of a pandemic, to start setting goals and objectives with someone you don't know, but Nati made me feel comfortable. I felt in a safe place. Although there was no pressure to fulfill the tasks we set out, I felt that having the biweekly sessions motivated me to fulfill my own commitments because I wanted to move forward, I wanted to prove that I could achieve it, and Nati created a very special and comforting space that made me feel happy about my achievements every time I met up with her.”
-Kamil, Chile
“My commitment to yoga was what surprised me the most, but what made me the happiest was that Nati gave me the tools to accomplish and to understand my value and worth as a human being.”
-Alexandra, Venezuela
“The work that I have done has not only helped me - but my community! I've been able to share the gratitude practice with those around me, and it has helped them start to foster self-love as well.”
-Maia, California
“That it totally exceeded my expectations and I feel that I have accomplished a lot. I didn't know what I was walking into but I got so much more than I could ever imagine. Also that I enjoyed it from start to finish, even the moments where I had to push myself, think a little harder, and even open up more than I anticipated… but it was totally worth it.”
-Mel, Belgium
“That I was able to achieve goals that otherwise would have probably postponed. (I also loved meeting Nati!)”
-Ana, Dubai
“I would recommend my coach to… / If someone was on the fence about starting a Coaching Program with Nati, I would say to them:
“Nati is a wonderful friend who celebrates your accomplishments and also sits with your sadness. She is always eager to learn and find out how to better serve you. I would recommend Nati and her coaching program to everyone!”
-Monica, USA
“Go for it! I have been going to therapy for years now, and even though that has helped me gain a lot of understanding, I think that this program made me feel a great sense of growth. I think that by setting goals that are doable and having someone like Nati to hold you accountable for them, you'll definitely feel
a sense of accomplishment, and that'll give you the kind of momentum it takes to make even greater changes in your life. It's like this awesome cycle of positivity and growth!”
-Laura, New York
“I'd say if you can, do it! From the outside there are many critical glances at these “self-help” or coaching spaces, but after experiencing it, I can affirm that they are incredible. Being able to share your concerns with someone and have that person collaborate with you as a guide that does not judge, demand or criticize, but moves you, motivates you and allows you to discover yourself, is an incredibly positive experience. If you are currently seeking to generate changes in your lifestyle, I would highly recommend you reach out and connect with Nati, because you will feel accompanied, understood and loved, something that is not found everywhere and that is infinitely appreciated.”
-Kamil, Chile
“The Coaching Program with Nati is absolutely amazing. Whatever your goals are, wherever you are at, Nati will give you the tools and motivation you need to accomplish them. But most importantly, she will make you believe in yourself and love yourself, which is what's most important.”
-Alexandra, Venezuela
“Just do it! Nati helps you work towards the goals you come into the program with but also helps you find your underlying desires and motivators. I reached the goals I had set with Nati's help, but she really worked her magic by helping me understand myself better and allowing me to realize what the desires were behind those goals - and that's truly special! I now crave daily movement and have a strengthened sense of self-confidence, self-acceptance, and self-love.”
-Maia, California
“I would recommend my coach to people who are starting their journey in achieving a higher level of wellbeing or to anyone who needs an extra push to clearly define and achieve their goals.”
-Ana, Dubai
“I would recommend my coach to anyone who is looking to work on themselves and needs that extra push/ guide at beginning of their journey. I think she's able to adapt to so many different people with different backgrounds and situations, so really I recommend her to everyone (especially the ones who have the motivation to work on themselves but don't know where to start).”
-Mel, Belgium
“To anyone who is confused with their goals, stressed with their lifestyle, wanting to change & doesn't know how”
-Bea, France
“I would recommend Nati’s Coaching Programs to absolutely everyone! Whether you feel like you need some extra support in your life or feel like you have everything going for you, Nati has the ability to read you in a different light and help you in areas you didn’t even know needed help. The fact that she is there for you, listens to you and supports you makes you realize the power of a coach and good conversations.”
-Karoline, Norway

“Nati was able to help me achieve these goals by…
“Nati provides many resources to help attain these goals, but the most useful tool for me was The Circle of Life. I believe with any desire to change it's extremely beneficial to become aware of where one is at now. The Circle of Life forced me to face many truths I was avoiding. It helped me realize what I was lacking in my life and once I knew what those areas were, I was able to start implementing change. Another great tool Nati uses is the personal leadership canvas. It helps in identifying what drives you, what is truly important to you, and becoming aware of what your limiting beliefs are.”
-Monica, USA
“Teaching me that things are achieved with patience, no matter how small the progress. In addition to that, I believe that one of the greatest lessons I have learned is that no matter how small the change or action, it is important to make it visible. We can work every day for our final goal with small daily actions, which not because they are daily, mean that they are not important and transcendental. Nati helped me understand that every step I take in the direction of my goals is a step that I must appreciate and of which I must be proud.”
-Kamil, Chile
“Nati helped me by setting very realistic, achievable goals that made me feel good about myself and like I was working towards becoming a better version of myself (without ever feeling less than). She always listened to what was going on in my mind and helped me make sense of it all. She also gave great exercises that helped me understand myself a little bit better and gain perspective on a lot of things.”
-Laura, New York
“Nati helped me work towards my goals by meeting me where I was at. She brainstormed ideas with me and supported me as I tried them out, and found what worked for me. She helped me find ways of integrating my goals into my busy schedule in a way that didn't feel forced, but natural.”
-Maia, California
“Leading the way to help me take small (but meaningful) steps in each session, providing me with great examples, taking the time to listen to me, and providing me with excellent tools that work specifically for me, and most importantly motivating and showing me that everything is possible.”
-Mel, Belgium
“First, guiding me into establish realistic and more meaningful goals.
Then giving me the tools I needed and also being there for me throughout the process and motivating me everyday.”
-Alexandra, Venezuela
“Helping my know myself a little better. I did the job and got deeper into myself and she helped my with different exercises, PDF, videos, talks and questions that helped me realize many things I had inside of me.”
-Capu, France
“Keeping me accountable (i.e., asking for progress each session)
Providing introspective exercises that helped me identify areas of opportunity, motivated me or simply stopped me from making any more excuses”
-Ana, Dubai
“Nati gave me small goals to achieve in order to reach my actual goal. Baby steps that I did not know I needed and are now part of my every day life. On top of the small goals she provided me with care, support & attention. Also extra details, documents, podcast, books for me to read/listen/look at and see what feels good.”
-Bea, France
“She gave me her full attention & she listened with an open mind, trying to understand where I was coming from without judging.
She helped me see the bigger picture and helped me in other areas of life that I didn’t even realize needed attention.
She gave me homework after every session based on what we had talked about that week and based on what she thought might be helpful to me and my situation.
She asked me questions that made me reflect and see things from other perspectives and gave me tools to better handle the challenges I often faced in my daily life.”
-Karoline, Norway
“Learning how to ask for, and accept, help. Life was really tough for me when I reached out to Nati. I was at a point in my life where I needed the help of others. And by accepting Nati's help, I was able to find the strength to get help in other areas of my life. I started therapy, I finally sought out a Spanish tutor to help put my insecurities to rest. The abundance has continued to flow into my life and it all started by asking for help.”
