I engaged Cora to help me sort through several personal and career issues I was struggling with.

I quickly developed a trust in her intuition. I felt comfortable sharing my real stuff — I had lost a son to suicide, and that brought a ton of guilt. Also, my career was not where I wanted it to be. I was working hard with poor results. We mapped out my priorities and some actions I could commit to.

Fast-forward to about 18 months later, and Cora called me and said, “You know you have everything you said you wanted,” and she was right! I did! However, the route I had taken to get there was entirely different.

For the past three years, I have had the best job, and I am grateful to women like Cora, who gave me a little push and helped me achieve some meaningful results in many areas of my life.

Our organization was facing financial pressures and demands.

Our organization faced financial pressures and demands to produce outcomes in a complex and diverse environment. Due to tight operating dollars, our staff was struggling to deliver strategic priorities.

I found Cora to be an excellent listener who can explore the not-so-obvious aspects of why the situation is the way it is. She has various tools that can help guide processes to achieve the results that leaders need.

Working with Cora has helped me set my priorities, help our leadership team achieve theirs, and take the necessary steps to realize the changes we need. It has also enabled me to see the potential obstacles that we may face and overcome them.

I am much less anxious about aspects that I can’t actively control.

I have improved my ability to articulate a vision for success and am more patient with the constant course corrections needed to succeed.

You offered me a safe place to land during a very painful period.

In 2010, my beloved husband of 35 years died shockingly and suddenly. The grieving process was arduous. I reached out to Cora for some guidance.

Cora’s kind and compassionate council offered me a soft place to land during a very painful period of coming to terms with this devastating loss.

You are very patient, understanding, and very intuitive to my situation.

We were able to work through life situations that were negatively affecting me.

You were very patient, understanding, and intuitive about my situation, and you helped me move forward on my own path.

Introducing me to the Gene Path was very enlightening for me.

Thank you very much.

I feel confident in my choices.

After working with Cora, I determined the negative patterns, beliefs, and barriers preventing me from reaching my potential. I could finally identify what I truly wanted in life. Because of Cora’s intuition and understanding, I felt very secure while exploring very personal and emotional issues. She was always very understanding and never judgmental, making it very easy to talk about things that I wanted to work on.

I cannot describe how different my life has become since working with Cora. I have opened up opportunities and feel confident in my choices.

For both professional and personal matters, Cora has helped me realize that we truly do create our own destinies and can overcome any obstacle.

I cannot thank Cora enough for her help, and I would recommend this work to anyone!

I highly recommend Cora’s coaching services.

I have known Cora for over a decade. When I met Cora, I was in the throws of a major lawsuit for a brand new house my husband and I purchased that was structurally unsafe and ultimately condemned. After spending a fortune on legal bills, I ended up having to be our own lawyer. I was up against three shark lawyers representing their insurance company clients. My husband had also been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and was raging unpredictably, and so I was dealing with that as well. Stressed out is an understatement.

Cora stood by my side through this whole journey, coaching me as another roadblock appeared literally on a daily basis. At the beginning of our coaching sessions, I was shaking, often crying, feeling hopeless, and filled with rage. By the end of each session, I felt free, full of possibility, had made important decisions, and could move forward with peace and confidence in this unknown world of civil law.

Cora coaches from both sides of her brain. Her coaching is logical and tangible. She is also right-brain gifted and highly intuitive. I needed someone to help me through the excessive details of my tangible world AND help me emotionally and spiritually understand the universal truth and why I was on this adverse journey.

I highly recommend her coaching services. She will help you find your way, meet your goals, resolve conflicts with difficult people, and fulfill your dreams!

I’m really pleased that this was a collaborative result.

We had a good day, with some fun team-building, great food, and a bit of outdoor time, and we collectively came up with our “Why.”

I can’t tell you how important this is, and I believe it will have a positive impact on how we continue to shape our work.

I’m pleased that this was a collaborative result.

Thanks to everyone, including Cora, who did a great job facilitating our meeting!

I can be unstoppable.

Thank you, Cora! You’ve taken OHEA a long way on this in one short week—it was amazing! I especially appreciate your steady leadership, your quick turnaround, and your ability to make us stretch our thinking to crystallize a vision.

The previous strategic plan was led by someone else—it was not nearly as productive or energizing. You’ve been awesome to work with, too!
