Strengths & Values Focus
Tools & Strategies
Positive & Connection
"You are great, very easy to talk to, provide good insight and ideas, and very positive as things do not always go as planned or wanted. It really helped me focus on the positive and my strengths. Thank you so much!"
Focus & Encouragement
"You really helped me get through a difficult time by focusing on the right things. I am very grateful for all the help and encouragement you provide me. It's been great working with you!"
Strengths & Values
The coaching Julie provided me helped me identify my strengths and values and how to leverage these to help me not feel scattered. She opened my eyes to the impact of setting SMART goals that are attainable and not overwhelming.
After working with Julie I feel more centered. I have identified what I need in order to maintain this centered feeling. With the tools that she's given me I can go back to re-focus; to review my values, my strengths and how I can create new goals to help me stay on the right path that works for me.

'Julie helps me think outside of the box and provides what I'd call a sympathetic push to get me to think in a way I may not have on my own.'

Coaching
I just wanted to tell you how awesome my son has been riding since taking your beginner mtb course through LO parks+rec...we went to Bend last weekend and he absolutely crushed it, taking on challenging terrain like I've never seen before! I literally cannot believe the progress he's made. What's more, is that he took on obstacles head on, not deviating from them, but attacking/conquering them with a smile on his face...

Coaching
I just finished a trainer ride. It's the only time I use power. Anyway, my numbers are really good right now. As good as they have ever been. Your program is money.
'It's great to have someone help me gain confidence to try new methods and new activities I may not have tried otherwise. I feel like my life is more enriched, that I have the power and tools to define what I want out of life and how to get it.'
'You have assembled a great collection of effective workout components. I am eager to get into them to supplement what I have been doing. Very cool stuff. I am always impressed with how you bring fresh ideas and straight-forward practical advice for fitness and training and for overall health. Bravo! '
I received several calls and emails afterwards and everyone said your voice was so calming they immediately felt better and more centered! I completely agree. I think you had some great ideas and tips that anyone can easily put into place in their daily routine.

I wanted to reach out and thank you for your coaching last year. I learned so much. I just wanted you to know that your coaching is very important and makes a difference.
I wanted to thank you again for the clinic. I rode the Timothy Lake loop today, and was much more confident and skilled than the last time. So thank you!
Follow-up Communication
'I always review the summary emails Julie sends out after our phone sessions when I need some reminding of what my goals are for the week and why I chose them.'
'The ride yesterday went really well, I made it up Germantown without having to stop at all! I don’t know if I would have made it all the way up if it weren’t for the techniques you showed me last week. That session was SO helpful!'

Coaching
'Thank you so very much for your guidance and wisdom. Our time together has been rich beyond words. I am beyond grateful! You definitely have a gift and I'm delighted I was able to be on the receiving end'
I had a great time riding in the French Alps. I wanted to let you know that ever since I spoke with you my training got better and better. I never again experienced any fatigue riding back-to-back days. I implemented what you suggested. All of that dramatically changed my ability to tolerate training.
I was super well prepared for the trip. At no point did I feel any strain. It was great to enjoy the views and the exhilaration without feeling any pain. Your training plan of 14,000 feet per weekend + intervals was spot on.
Thank you very much for your expert advice. I look forward to the next challenge.

Classes
'Thanks for putting me through my paces.'
'Your classes mean more to me than I can say. Again, thank you!'
'It has been great working with you over the years. You've helped keep me stay focused no matter what has been going on with me. And it has been nice to see the improvements as well.'
'I enjoyed the class last week and know I would never have been able to do 1/4 of that on my own. I look forward to more of these in the coming months as they'll provide a much needed starting point.'
'I credit you with helping me get comfortable on a road bike and know how to do it properly. My husband is a huge cyclist and at least I can enjoy some rides with him now. I loved the class '
