I wanted to leave behind my harried way of life -one filled with stress and my own self-perceived limitations. When I met Elliott, he could empathize greatly with what I was going through.

He has become one of my greatest confidants. I do not say this lightly because I am very selective with whom I am close with. I cannot say enough about how great of an influence that he has been, but I will try.

Elliott has a special gift, genius I would say, with emotional learning. He always allows me to have the emotions that I have and gives value to them. At the same time, once my emotions become detrimental to my self-growth, he will not hesitate to point that out. That quality is what I believe is crucial for a life coach to have.

When he listens, he is fully present but also not intimidating. For me, that can be like a life-line when I’m going through a really hard time. I came from a background of trauma and negative relationship cycles.  Elliott’s constant presence, mentorship, and overall caring, has helped me to make tremendous growth. The usual triggers that used to send me back to bad life decisions do not have the same effects on me. I have him to thank that for.

Another of Elliott’s genius is that he is a clear communicator. His style of communicating has set a great foundation for me to also have clear communication. I used to not pay a lot of attention to the things I said or the way I said it, but I never realized how much greater my world could be with clear communication. I feel like I have more intimate relationships with my friends and co-workers because I can communicate effectively. I am also now understanding the power of language and how powerful a tool it is. It also has helped me to communicate better with myself. I no longer create a muddle self-narrative that I rehearse over and over again. I can paint a better picture of my past and can move forward.

One of the goals that I set was to be more “action” oriented. Elliott has also helped me to put that into practice. He has an endless toolkit of ways to encourage me to take more actions in my life and ultimately manifest the things that I want and create my own reality. He has helped me with an “action plan list” that has not only helped in my life but my own self-growth.

My wish is that everyone gets an opportunity to have a coaching session with Elliott Niblack because he is just so good at what he does and an amazing person in general. You will get so much out of it with just one session.
