Testimonials

Life-changing experience! I had a life-changing experience which was a direct result of working with Leisse. Prior to my engagement with Leisse, I knew how I wanted to feel, but I was unable to step out of my current mindset and move forward to obtain that desired feeling.

Megan

Shifting my perspective changed my outcome. After working with this incredible coach, I feel much more clear in my values and boundaries. Leisse has taught me that adjusting my perspective on people and situations in my life shifts my feelings and creates my desired outcomes. I feel very blessed that I was given the opportunity to work with such an amazing woman.
