Working with Elaine is an absolute must! She will help you understand yourself and introduce you to ideas you’ve never considered before. I now have a clear imagine of what it looks like to be confident and comfortable with myself and a deeper understanding of the relationship I am creating with myself and best of all a means to get there. Her genius is how openly she sees people as they are and her gift is how skilled she is at guiding and fostering understanding.
“Elaine is a warm, thought-provoking and encouraging coach. She helps you get to the root of the issues in a gentle and loving way. And she walks her talk. She does the work needed for a coach to be grounded, clear, and deeply present for their clients. She blends a generous heart and excellent training and skills, with wisdom to create profound transformations for her clients. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to grow and overcome any perfectionism, approval, or limiting beliefs that are keeping you from having the life you choose.”
I was amazed at how repetitive my old thought patterns were. Elaine helped me see what was holding me back that I couldn’t see for myself. I can now acknowledge the patterns and replace thoughts that don’t serve me. I am focused on making small changes that will lead me to the larger picture. This has opened up so many new avenues for me to explore!
I was feeling stuck after a divorce and losing my daughter. The work we did together made a big difference in my life. I wanted to move to Florida and start a new life with my partner. Something kept me from actually taking steps to make it happen. Elaine helped me snap out of it and I started seeing myself as worthy and deserving of the life I wanted. Now, it’s all happened! We also sold the house up north putting us in a position to have a nice nest egg and that inground pool I wanted (another little dream realized).
Working with Elaine helped me create the self-confidence I wanted to put myself “out there” and build my business. Before this program, I was very uneasy about networking and promoting myself and my business. I would do things, but I worried a lot about what other people would think, and how I would look. Basically, I worried about failing. I loved the exercises that focused on beliefs; this is so powerful when taking action from my future self, now. I know I will grow my business from part-time to full-time in the next 12 months, with the confidence to embrace discomfort and say YES to every opportunity that comes my way.
I was struggling with some negative feedback I received while testing a new project. I tried ignoring the feedback but it continued to bother me and I was really stuck in self-doubt and indecision. Elaine helped me realize how my thoughts lead to feelings and then actions. When I got clear that I was creating indecision with my own thinking, I was able to choose thoughts that were more supportive for me. I’m learning, even at midlife, that choosing my thoughts leads to a healthier sequence of events in every area of my life.
Elaine spoke to my women’s group on “Midlife is Not for Sissies!” and not only shared her experiences that we could all relate to but guided us through meaningful dialogue to bring the 12 of us closer to understanding and accepting ourselves. Time you spend with Elaine will be magical and beautiful, leading you to a kinder self.
Before I worked with Elaine, I was very fearful. I’d been wanting to create my own business but I was waiting for someone or something to promise me that everything was going to be OK. I’ve such passion for what I want to do, but I was so unsure because I didn’t see anyone else doing it. I was unable to move forward. I was looking for a safety net. I wanted to know ‘the rules’. I spoke with lawyers to calm my fears. They didn’t. After working with Elaine, I felt empowered. She asked brilliant questions like, “What if I make the rules?!”. I was able to give myself permission to take just one step at a time and she helped me realize that roadblocks don’t mean the end of the road. I can reassess and keep moving. Instead of letting fear stop me, Elaine helped me to trust my inner knowing, to allow my passion, ideas, and enthusiasm to lead me forward. I am amazed by the confidence I hear in my own voice now when I tell people “I’m launching my own business?”. I am excited for the future!
“Thank you so much. You opened up so much for me, I am so excited. Such a gift. Thanks for helping me see and break through things I could not do on my own. What a wonderful coach you are.”
“Elaine Blais is the real deal! Participating in her workshop gave me energy and confidence around my job search. Before the workshop I was feeling stuck and resigned. The exercises opened up new insights about how to start being the professional I dream of, right now. I highly recommend working with Elaine.“
“Elaine’s workshop was a perfect balance of guidance, quiet time, visualization, and sharing. I loved the energy she created in this group. I was also impressed by how Elaine tuned into each person’s sharing and offered a new perspective. She’s a pro!“
Something wonderful has happened! Before taking your program, I’d been feeling stuck in my living situation. I came away from this experience with so much positive energy and that helped me make the shift. The visualization we did was very powerful. I gave myself permission to have the life I want, and within a couple of weeks, I put an offer on a home of my own. Thank you!
“When I worked with Elaine, I was stressed over a recent family situation. She definitely helped me see a new perspective on the situation and recognize an old story that was contributing to my angst. I was surprised how quickly and easily Elaine was able to help me identify what was triggering my angst and develop a game plan for moving forward. I am now building new memories and feel joyful about them.“
“Elaine really helped me understand how to handle a situation by looking at it in a completely different light. And teaching me how to change my thoughts around it, and how that can completely change an outcome.”
“I wanted you to know that your coaching, insights, and encouragement have helped me get in touch with the courage needed to do this deep work. You showed me there IS a path to peace and loving ourselves. I had lost the ability to see the good in myself. Your kindness and skills opened my eyes and heart. You are always in my heart.”
“I can’t thank you enough. I’m going to France this fall as an independent traveler. My vision board has made it happen along with our conversations. The money for this trip was actually staring me in the face for quite some time, I just never saw it in the way that it could enable me to fulfill a dream. My trip is in September and I am going to journal my trip with writings and photographs that will be shared. In fact, I might start now on how the whole journey began.”
“I just wanted to reach out and thank you for your inspiring talk. It encouraged me to “get out of my own way”. The day after your workshop, I signed up for dance classes and I have been dancing ever since! Dancing has always made me feel happy and for years, I have been telling myself to get back to it. But there was always an excuse – not enough time, not enough money, not enough energy, etc. Glad that you pointed out this is just BS we tell ourselves!”
“I was struggling and feeling like I wasn’t working to my full potential and I just couldn’t get out of my own head. Elaine led me through a visualization to imagine where I wanted to be. She encouraged me to get up the next morning and be that. I did and it worked. After working together I was able to achieve a (business) goal I’d set for myself 2 years ago. I had been stuck at this place for 2+ years! Immediately after our session I had my best month ever and I will achieve the next level this month!”
“Elaine’s ability as a Spiritual Life Coach assisted me to truly move within myself to tap into my beautiful wisdom of my essential self and body compass by exercises and discussion. I truly learned what type of experiences made me feel best. This helped me make decisions creating harmony and I was able to journey into a place where I could forgive myself for certain things that really bothered me. My journey into my core essential self helped me find a way to renew my marriage and really find joy and contentment.”
