Power Coaching ... find the same sense of self and take control of their own lives. Personal Empowerment for me is a journey ... To have the tools and ability to take a different look at the journey is a very powerful and fulfilling thing. The skills I have been learning through CLIĘĽs Power Coach training allow me to look at why I am stuck and find ways through whatever is blocking me. That brings the feeling of fulfilment and allows me to realize the choices I have. Power Coaching also allows me to help others find the same sense of self and take control of their own lives. That is the best Personal Empowerment there is! + Penny Spalding APC, Victoria, Canada

Dear John and Betska. I would like to honor you both for the gift of Power Coaching! I started my day with a coaching session on myself, and once again I can only say wow. The process works.
