While recovering from a serious injury that took me away from my family and career for 2 months I had time to reflect on how I was living day-to-day. My professional life was very stressful which negatively impacted my health and personal life. I realized I was way too busy, not as organized as I knew I could be and overwhelmed with where to begin to make a change.

A close friend of mine knew Deb and recommended I meet her to see if she could help. I could tell from our first meeting that Deb understood where I stood in my career and personal life. Deb offers loving guidance without judgement and provides resources and proven strategies to help you make changes to be able to live a peaceful and fulfilling lifestyle. Deb knows how to challenge you yet doesn’t pressure so conversations are open and comfortable. Deb was the light I needed and with her acceptance, support and guidance our work together has helped me become a stronger more confident woman. I have learned to practice and implement changes in my personal and professional worlds that enables me to live happy and healthy. Thank you Deb- I am so grateful for your wisdom and compassion. If even little bit of what I have mentioned resonates with you, go see Deb.

I had never used a life coach before, but reached out to Deb when I found myself at a crossroads in my career during mid-life, which I never would have anticipated. Her website spoke to all the things I was feeling, and I connected with her immediately in my first session. Not only did she listen compassionately to my problems and issues, which is therapeutic in its own way, but she was able to give me concrete steps, references, and perspective as to how to frame my current problems, and help focus on what I really needed and wanted in my life moving forward. It was tremendously helpful. It resulted in a complete mindset change for me in how I look at both my big problems, as well as day to day stressors – it was a life changer for the better!

I stopped going once I felt I had achieved more of a balance and perspective with my work life, but she was the first one I thought of and reached out to again when I subsequently developed significant personal and relationship problems. She was able to once again provide some much needed perspective, with specific guidance on conflict resolution and communication which has once again completely changed my life! I cannot express my appreciation for her patience, compassion, and wisdom. She has provided me with more insight, perspective, and extraordinarily useful advice on how to approach life’s problems than anyone I have ever met. I cannot recommend her more strongly!

Before I worked with Deb, I existed as a victim in a world of pain and scarcity. I clung to the shadow of my past and viewed the future with fear, doubt, and worry.

Deb’s intuitive guidance, life-changing tools, and wealth of resources transformed me. After just five months with Deb, I am awakened, and now the victor of my own life – one filled with joy, abundance, and gratitude.

The evidence is everywhere: My personal growth has resulted in greater confidence, creativity, and connectedness. My relationships are enriched. I feel ten years younger. People tell me I have an inner glow and ask me what is different. I didn’t think my beautiful marriage could get any better, but it did. Miraculous moments and synchronicity pop up unexpectedly! I am the happiest I have ever been in my 52 years.

Working with Deb is the best investment of my life!

Deb, thanks for the gifts of inspiration, compassion, and enthusiasm. You are a treasure!

What if it could be easy? What if you were unstoppable? The biggest barriers to being able to realize our potential are housed in our minds.

Though my sessions with Deb I was able to identify the sources of negative thinking and develop strategies for overcoming these mental stumbling blocks. For example, being allergic to criticism might be something that came from having very critical parents. In order to turn this impulse around into something useful, I had to learn to love the red marks. Being criticized should not be perceived as an attack on the sense of self worth, even though it may feel like that, but rather it is a chance to learn and improve.

Working with Deb I was able to set concrete, doable goals that I could achieve simply by altering my perspective. Rather than thinking of a challenge as insurmountable, it is amazing how reachable a goal becomes by simply asking, ” what if this could be easy?’ With that thought in mind Deb helped me to set up strategies, and identify the resource people who could help me make the best use of my skills and talent. Thanks so much, Deb Bergeron.

While I noticed a difference in my attitude and energy level, it’s interesting to note that others noticed it as well.

People have said to me, “There’s something different about you, you seem so vibrant!” Personal coaching has made a huge difference in all aspects of my life; Deb’s coaching sessions provided the tools and techniques needed to stop listening to the limiting beliefs and to allow myself the personal freedom to be.

I first started coaching sessions with Deb on the recommendation of a friend, and I’m so glad I decided to invest in myself.

I was a recent empty nester with a list of things I wanted to do yet unsure how or where to start. Deb has helped me release old patterns of thinking that are no longer valid, turning my attention to the future rather than the past. I am very happily floating in The Fertile Void, that place of gathering in strength, energy and knowledge, preparing to retire my first adulthood and launch confidently into my second. The Fertile Void is a safe and nourishing place to be. Thank you Deb, for listening, recommending, guiding and being such a wonderful resource!

Our organization first used Deb’s services as the result of a request by our employees to offer a lunch and learn on stress management.

It was amazing to see the employees quickly feel at ease with Deb during the session. I personally benefited from attending both sessions and was able to implement some of Deb’s suggestions in my own life. I have found the addition of writing three pages in a journal on a daily basis allows me to “let go” of some of the mundane and unimportant issues that were stealing my focus and energy from the important things in my life, like my family.

I look forward to working with Deb in the future on both an organizational level and personal level.

The Best Year of Your Life is a Transformative Experience…

Through Deb’s great group facilitation skills and the fabulous book by Debbie Ford, you will define clear, tangible goals and develop the tools to achieve them.

Deb brings tremendous focus, insight, humanity, love and humor to her work. Meeting Deb has been a wonderful life-altering experience for me.

This work helped me to de-clutter my professional office and my home environment over the course of two months; the resulting lightness and peace this has brought me are the best gifts I received this year and have inspired others in our group and in my life to let go of the clutter that weighs them down and saps their creative energy.

The sessions have been very thought-provoking and enlightening forcing me to deal with the important issue of balance between work and home-life, and how best to make the choices to improve my life and focus on advancing those issues and values which are most important to me. Our group format also gives us all valuable insight into how others deal with the same issues and choices, with many different approaches, suggestions as well as encouragement.

I really have enjoyed our sessions together and would be pleased to recommend you to anyone.

With her Lunch and Learn sessions, Deb Bergeron is able to focus the members of her audience and allow them to think about what they value and consider important in their lives.

By giving her participants the luxury to reflect and concentrate on their strengths and weaknesses, she presents an “Ocean of Possibilities” to her clients. I would heartily recommend Deb Bergeron’s Lunch and Learn coaching sessions for those who are trying to make their “reach exceed their grasp.”

Deb came to our office to teach her “Work-Life Balance” class for a lunch and learn. It amazed me how some of my co-workers, who are naturally very quiet people, were able to open up– she was able to connect with us. She really made us stop and think how making some simple changes in our lives could improve the quality.

Deb is a very compassionate, understanding and self- motivating teacher who not only assists in guiding you to understand what it is you really want from yourself, but also aids in maintaining your focus on fulfilling those simplest pleasures you have been denying yourself. I am looking forward to my next Lunch & Learn.

Thank you very much for coming to our Wednesday clinical supervision group to talk about self-care.

In our profession it is easy to focus on our clients to the detriment of our own mental and physical health.

Your presentation was very helpful in that it reminded us that we do this to ourselves without even knowing it and how to step by step begin to regain our balance. We especially liked the exercises that made us think about ways to make changes. Again thank you for your time and knowledge. We all greatly appreciated it.

I enjoyed the time we spent talking about strategies. She offered a number of concepts regarding choice which were thought provoking. In particular the idea of saying no, to carrying around stress and/or taking on work that isn’t important or isn’t yours, will make room for things you want to say yes to. I found it empowering to hear how, much of the time, it is our choices that put us where we are, and that we can choose to live with less stress.

I am so grateful that I had an opportunity meet you and experience your class. I really left feeling like I had learned some valuable tools to help me in my day to day life. The awareness of self care is so important I never realized that my half full glass might be half empty as well. Now I have some insight on how to keep it full. I realize balance is a moving target and I plan on getting very comfortable standing on one leg. Flamingo’s do it.

I love breathing in peace and exhaling joy it is so relaxing. Thank you again for the tips on self care and balance I think everyone could benefit from your class. I already feel better.
