~ Briana Stimmel

Carrie is caring, heartwarming, understanding - with a touch of pizazz. She listens with her whole heart and gives you just the right amount of encouragement to take action toward where you want to go. While you are working with her, you uncover things you didn't know were there - and after talking to her, you feel as if you made progress before you even took the step. And then you do take the step - because she believes in you, and you do too.

~Cori

I had no idea what to expect with my coaching experience with Carrie, and have been amazed at the outcome. Carrie has an incredibly warm, vibrant spirit that is easy to connect with and trust. She has a way of encouraging me to be honest about what I want and what I need, and think about how to ask for things in ways that I never thought of before. She helped me drill down on what was truly important to me and held me back in life and set up actionable steps between each session to give me accountability. Working with Carrie helped me overcome a huge slump that I was having in my personal and spiritual life, find a job that I wanted, and continue to build a life that I can be proud of. I'm incredibly grateful for her insight, her unique way of listening to me and asking questions, and her trusting manner. And the actions that she has given me I continue to use daily to increase joy and abundance in my life. I highly recommend Carrie as a coach!

I feel so fortunate to have connected with Carrie as my coach these last 9 months. I have been transitioning through a divorce, and Carrie has coached me through the difficulty and discomfort. Through our conversations, I have had countless aha moments, loads of self-discovery, and awareness in this process. She is incredibly grounded, wise, and intuitive. She always leaves me feeling more empowered, understood, and with a better sense of direction. Her coaching and support have been invaluable to me.

~Susan Sotnick (Sign Language Interpreter )

I have been working with Carrie for the past several months. Before our collaboration, I believed I had a solid grasp on my life. However, as things became more hectic, I realized I lacked the necessary tools to navigate everything effectively. Facing significant life changes, such as the end of a long-term relationship and evolving other relationships, I knew I needed external support.

From the first five minutes of speaking with Carrie, I knew I had found the right person to help me. Her warm, welcoming demeanor, kind spirit, and straightforward approach have been instrumental in my journey toward self-love and personal growth. I can't recommend Carrie and her services highly enough. She has profoundly improved my life, and I am excited to continue evolving with her support and guidance.

~Maggie Palermini

I appreciate working with Carrie Costello because she has helped me focus on following through on an idea. I have many ideas and it often felt like I was floating in a cloud. Carrie pulled me out of that cloud, and I appreciate that.

With more focus, I can get more work done and make it more professional. This helps build my confidence and stay inspired!

Working with Carrie has been the best thing I have done for ME in my adult life. She has taught me that I have the ability, courage, and strength to work through difficult situations and conversations, unpack the childhood trauma and hurt in order to heal, and provided the tools to create and dream big and bold while staying true to who I am. Carrie's passion for lifting others shines in every conversation; she's a true cheerleader for my growth in all capacities: personal, career, and spiritual. Thank you, Carrie, for helping me realize my potential and knowing that I am enough.

Before I met Carrie, I was going through one of the darkest period of my life. Things that I thought couldn’t happen, happened. I lost touch with who I was and struggled to find my identity. I was stubborn at first; and I thought I could figure this out on my own like I usually do. However, I couldn’t find the light at the end of the tunnel and lost my willpower and motivation. I was constantly in “survivor” mode and couldn’t catch a break. Carrie entered my life at the most pivotal point. Her enthusiasm and energy helped turn my life back around and head towards the right direction. Carrie’s energy and empathy made the environment comfortable enough for me to express myself and become vulnerable. Through our sessions, we dived deep into my situation and focused on what is and isn’t in my control. As a coach, she help me identify what are things that I can do now and set realistic, achievable goals. The recap session in the beginning helped me stay on task and spark positive change in my life. Without her coaching, I would still continue to put my wants and needs on the back burner and lose my identity. She helped develop me into a better version of myself where I can speak up and voice my opinion, practice non-violent communication, and practice grounding skills to help regulate my emotional flywheel. There’s not enough words that can describe how much she impacted my life. She’s definitely someone I can count on to push and guide me in the right direction to achieve my personal goal and improve my self-worth.

~ Bryan K (Group Lead, Operations)

I began collaborating with Carrie just six months ago, and the transformation has been remarkable. She is exceptionally attentive, listening without imposing her own views or agendas. Carrie creates a space for you to express your goals and gently probes if you're prepared to tackle the issue at hand. When you are ready, Carrie provides practical steps that lead to immediate improvements. She has a unique way of reminding me that I hold the reins in my life, a realization we often overlook.

Furthermore, Carrie generously shared her "Compassionate Communication" training materials with me. These resources have significantly enhanced my communication skills, not only with my young daughter but also with the adults in my life. Carrie is truly a treasure; she offers a fresh perspective on oneself and life.

For anyone eager to witness genuine progress and enhancement in their lives, I highly encourage you to engage with Carrie. I assure you, you'll be more than pleased with the decision!

~ Athanasia Papaioannou

Growing up, you never realize how you’ve lacked people in your corner until you’re older and a bit wiser. You feel yourself stumble over the basic human needs of self-love and wonder what’s wrong with you.

With the number of available resources available to help you through childhood/adult trauma, Carrie has been one of the best decisions I’ve made when I began my journey to a better me. In as little as 4 sessions, I’ve had so many “ah-ha” moments! It’s been liberating to say the least.

Carrie’s method of caring nature, honesty, and genuine curiosity, has me feeling like I’m not alone in my journey. That I have someone willing to help me fight for my self worth. She’s not one to “tell” me what to do but let me get to my own resolution. I love her approach and I’m so glad I found her! I look forward to having her in my corner for as long as I can! Thank you, Carrie!

~ Damaris Davis

Carrie Costello is an exceptional life coach who has significantly impacted my life. Her approach is nonjudgmental and practical, making it easy to connect with her and open up about personal challenges.

One of the most valuable lessons she taught me was setting boundaries. She guided me in understanding the importance of valuing my own time and space and provided actionable ways to implement these boundaries in my daily life. During a desperate time in my career, when I was seeking a new job, Carrie offered much-needed guidance. Instead of reacting impulsively to the situation, she coached me to make a mindful move. This approach not only helped me hold out for the perfect position but also provided ways to make the current situation more manageable

through the transition. I highly recommend Carrie’s work. Her warmth and humor, combined with practical advice, have been supportive and effective for meaningful and desired changes in my life.

~Susan Walters

Working with Carrie Costello was a transformative experience. After moving interstate, I was seeking clarity about the next steps in my career, and Carrie went above and beyond what you'd expect from a typical life coach. Not only did she provide insightful career guidance, but she also helped me address past trauma that had been holding me back for years. Her holistic approach really stood out. The Core Values Workbook and Resentment Worksheet were particularly helpful tools that guided me through deeper self-reflection and healing. I’m grateful for her support and highly recommend Carrie to anyone looking to make meaningful, lasting changes in their life!

I’ve been seeing Carrie for a few months now, and she has been instrumental in my journey through young adulthood. Her expertise in inner child work and managing current day stressors has been incredibly helpful.

I’ve been working with Carrie for just over a month, and the results are very positive and tangible. With her, no challenge is too big to work through. Also, what you get out of her coaching is directly related to the effort you put into it. Do the work between sessions, and you’ll see the continuity and results.

I highly recommend Carrie and can't thank her enough for the help and support she has provided me through some challenging times. If you are ready to put in the work and improve your life to a new level reach out to Carrie and you will not be disappointed!

~Michael Green

When I began working with Carrie, I only knew that I needed an outlet to discuss areas of my life I wanted to improve. I didn’t know exactly what I was after, but time with Carrie allowed space to figure it out and provided accountability along the way. We focused on values, communication, strengths & weaknesses, exploring what roles would be best fit, inner confidence, parenting, and understanding myself. Values work was one of the most meaningful exercises as I had never been intentional about defining them for myself. Now I know what’s important to me so I can live the life I want. Carrie’s style of intertwining therapy techniques of reflecting to understand why, in addition to practical ways to make meaningful progress was a great fit. I’m still early on my journey, but am so thankful for the foundation that Carrie helped me build. Coaching gave me permission to focus on the self-care I need in order to give my best self to those around me. Thank you.
