Vicki was able to nurture self-doubt into complete trust in my own business and it roots. Giving me tools and knowledge to finally move forward with confidence and self-belief. One of the highlights of Vicki’s coaching was learning to understanding who my target audience is to best serve my skill set and the importance of sticking with it. She used some creative tools that made the process personal to me and my business narrative. Women in business can be strong, authentic to themselves and successful!
