"It's like a therapy session but specific for my product work" - Roberto, Senior PM
Liesl, Writer & Musician
In working together, Liesl transformed from being totally stuck in her creative work to establishing a consistent writing practice and nailing her first poetry gig.
Dom, Job Seeker
When I first connected with Dom, she was overwhelmed and going in a million directions with her career search. After just 4 sessions, we "landed the ship". Shifting from "desperation mode" into a clarity and confidence in her path, she let things come to her. Ultimately, she was recruited for a job via LinkedIn.
Owen, Engineer
First, Owen was very shy and reserved in his energy. He didn't want to approach any authorities at work, unless absolutely necessary. He didn't want to "rock the boat". As we explored and unpacked these patterns, Owen found a more natural and authentic way to open up. He started connecting more fully with those around him - in work and life. Becoming less afraid of difficult emotions, Owen is now able to navigate complex work-place dynamics and receive critical feedback without losing his center. Confidence and receptivity is an understatement!
"I had the chance to meet with Sam via The Commons. From our first conversation, he was able to provide actionable guidance and help me reframe where I wanted to take my career next. I highly recommend him to anyone who is searching for how to take their next step in their career or what that step even looks like. I'm so excited to watch him grow his course and coaching business over the next few months!"
- Haley, Lead Product Marketing Manager
"Sam is an amazing listener and he makes me feel heard and understood, which has been crucial in helping me navigate the complexities of my ideas. He listens to me without judgment and gives me the opportunity to be my true self.
In addition to being a great listener, Sam also has an exceptional ability to see the potential in others and to provide thoughtful, actionable advice. When I shared my idea of becoming an expert in software development, he not only supported my vision but also shared me with solid, practical advice on how to achieve it. His encouragement and kindness have been a driving force in my journey to become a better version of myself."
- Roger, Software Engineer
"Sam is a master spaceholder. Guiding you into the very parts of your psyche you want to avoid (and simultaneously the parts that need attention), he helps you navigate with wisdom, openness, and compassion. He provides helpful perspectives and mirrored reflections that enable one to see any problem from new angles with unparalleled clarity. I highly recommend working with Sam if you are stuck with anything in life, or are trying to move forward towards a goal that feels a little out of reach-- he provides the support needed to get there!"
