grounded in potential

Lauree has been a wonderful, resourceful, reliable guide.

She helped me figure out particular goals for our time together, and then, when I encountered an unexpected tragedy, she helped me regroup to figure out different goals.

The level of feedback or pushback feels just right. I knew from our first session that we were a good fit.

How often do any of us have the experience of being truly listened to by another person?  And we all know how gratifying it is when we are, because it empowers us to be fully ourselves.

To me, Lauree's coaching style exemplifies this, and I believe it is due to her innate ability to hear and respond from her heart.  This allows her to connect authentically with her clients and tune into their real needs and desires.  

It also creates an immediate foundation of trust which supports deep exploration and encourages growth.  

I come away from a session with her feeling inspired to move more fully into the freedom that new possibilities offer.  I also may feel challenged--in the best sense, but confident of being supported in the process.  These are all the qualities I want in a coach, and she has them.

Lauree Ostrofsky is a sensitive, powerful coach.

She questions and encourages at just the right times and helps you to see clearly. I highly recommend her.

"How could a woman much younger that my own children help me with my goals for retirement?" That was the question I asked myself when I first contacted Lauree Ostrofsky three months ago.

Well, she did.

With carefully worded questions, Lauree got me to examine my life and my goals, helping me to see the possibilities of what I can be now.

She led me down the path of rediscovering what was already there. I was so bound up by guilt and shoulds from a long life of family and career that I was unable to free myself from that guilt and those shoulds.

I highly recommend life coaching with Lauree; she gave me my life back.

When Lauree and I spoke about coaching, I was excited but overwhelmed. I didn't even have time for me.

Through several months of coaching with Lauree, I learned how to breathe - figuratively and literally - get more work done and find a little time for me. I still have more work to do, but thanks to Lauree's wonderful coaching skills, I breathe, take some time for me and find I am more productive with my work.

With Lauree's clear, gifted and honest approach, I experienced being supported and held in exactly the way I needed in order to allow my process of deeper connection and powerful shifts to take root. Life affirming

One evening over dinner, Lauree was telling me about a group of 50-something women who were getting together to discuss the issues in their lives. Then, we both got to wondering, why don't more women our age do that?

Lauree and several friends, from all areas of my life, soon gathered for a weekend at my home, and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.

Essentially, Lauree crafted a compelling coaching social to weave into the weekend. Her facilitation of the guided conversation was moving, and it was inspiring to see friends share in such an open, meaningful way about the important issues in their lives, as 30-something women.

Lauree has a sincere gift for asking the essential questions, in a way that gently nudges us to explore what will empower us to make the most of our lives.
