While being coached by Bob Riley, my business has improved both financially, as well as my skills in dealing with people. My attitude and outlook on life has changed "dramatically". After struggling with depression for over a decade, I now choose to look at challenges in a different light and am able to overcome them. I am now accomplishing my goals and ideas not just thinking about them. I have a better attitude of self. I honestly can’t believe the difference in myself how I have changed, in a positive way, more caring, compassionate, less self centered yet more self caring and self loving. A huge difference! Over the years I have had "years" of professional counseling. I know that it helped and had a positive impact in my life, but not nearly to the degree of the practical, day to day life changing ways that the coaching of Bob Riley has. I am truly grateful for the terrific blessing he has been and continues to be in my life.
My experience coaching with Bob Riley has done so much for me in my life. First, let me start with a little story about my past, which I find necessary to share. I have had a rough life, having been sexually, mentally and physically abused. I have gone to psychologists, psychiatrists, marriage counselors and church ministers. I was Baker Acted for trying to commit suicide. I was also on bi-polar medication, anti depressants, anxiety medications and with all of this help I was still miserable. I just wanted to be happy and isn't that what we all want?
Coach was/is my life savior. He has taught me how to have self esteem, set boundaries, trust myself and most of all "BE" happy. With his skills, knowledge and love, he has helped me to grow as a person. I have become an individual and I love myself, living life to the fullest extent of my potential. Life Coaching is not about someone telling you how to live your life and what is right and wrong. It is all about love, life, self esteem, goals, boundaries, happiness and trust, while bringing out the very best that you can possibly be.
It is all about you, your own growth and how to achieve happiness. Coaching has changed my life. Presently, I am 42 years old. I now see how miserable I have been all of my life, while having settled for so much less than I deserve. Now I live my life to its fullest. I am happy and I can honestly say, even though I have had a bad day now and then, I have learned how to let it go and be happy.
To make a long story short, for eight months now, I have not seen any therapist or have I taken any more medications. I am so happy and positive about life. I love my life and everything I have achieved. I could never have done it without Coach. I love you Coach.
In the past, I have visited a counselor however I felt I never received either the necessary guidance or information. Counselors just listen to problems with no hints as to how to resolve them. I was stumbling along like a ship without a rudder, floundering in a stormy sea and could not see the shore. I desperately needed a lifeline. I felt like I was lost in a tunnel-a sad place to be-no sunshine, happiness, joy and felt I was gong in circles. While in this tunnel of turmoil or "Black Hole", either place whatever we name it, is not pleasant and I did not enjoy the fact that I could not find a way out alone. EVERYONE, at one time or another needs the help of someone. I needed to recover from trauma, grief, lack of self esteem and numerous other minor () problems, which at that time seemed insurmountable. I know I had tools and vision for my future. I just was not using them effectively. THEN I was introduced to Life Coach Bob Riley, a Life Coach How was he going to help me Women are skeptical and they need to be. This was a new area for me and frankly I didn’t think anyone could help. WAS I WRONG! I met Bob and came away with a brain full of information. I was on overload. After considering the information Bob had given me, it began to make sense and seemed so simple.
Coaching to me now is quite different than counseling. A Coach LISTENS (so very important) to you but has a way of "offering" suggestions while never forcing me to take any particular path. He just gave me a road map. What I did with it was totally up to me however I had his guidance and support to depend on. Coach taught me to carefully think before making decisions. He directed me toward a different and more positive outlook on life. I have no idea how he accomplishes these "miracles" but I am thankful that I was one of them. He was always there, standing in the wings with words of encouragement, laughter and gentleness. By now, having this positive attitude, I’ve been given back my joy, laughter, confidence and the light to brighten my path.
I mentioned earlier about having needed a lifeline and Bob not only threw me one but a raft to go with it. My general health has improved along with my sleep patterns. My outlook is brighter. My life has changed drastically and in a relatively short period of time. I am not really sure how this all happened and it is not easy to explain. I do know that I am more willing to give more of myself to others and I do not have time for negativity in my life. I have completely changed for the positive and I love hearing that from others who notice the POSITIVE change in me. We all still will have problems and make mistakes but the coping mechanisms I have now will permit me to think and make better choices. Not all choices are easy to make however we make the ones that are best for us. That is an area where we need to be selfish for ourselves, as I learned from Coach.
I feel like my inner light has been turned back on. My life is more joyful, positive and happier with much more sunshine than I have had in years. By the way, I have now been nicknamed—"Glenda, The sunshine girl"!! Everyone should have a Life Coach in their life. This world would be a better place and more positive with happier people. Thank you Bob for helping me change my life. I recommend you for LIFE COACH OF THE YEAR-how about possibly the universe You will always be a very special friend to me and my Guardian Angel as you have heard me refer to you so often.
I will tell you that there was a time that I did not fully understand what coaching was really about. Having personally experienced your coaching services myself, I really get it and it is very powerful. I have always been able to clearly see the results of patterns, life's strategies, reactions and behaviors, whether it may be mine or someone else's. Problem was, I just had no idea what to do about it or how to change it. Like you have said, "we all have never really been given the tools to change these patterns". That was very empowering to hear and is exactly what most people struggle with in this life. You and your coaching have been a Godsend to me and in my book, "one in a million". I am doing well and am very busy. I am feeling more confident about things and myself, as a result, I want to thank you for your encouragement, the tools for change, your commitment and validation of me as a person and also the work that I do. I will never be able to express to you in words how much it means to me to have your admiration, respect and support. Sometimes the path I am on with my spirit world work can be lonely and challenging. Your dedication to me and the work I am doing, which at times can be against all odds, is priceless to me and really helps me keep going. Thank you for being you and doing what you do. Your work is so important with all of what you are accomplishing and "our" team work together with others, is so effective and life changing. Thanks for everything!
