For the first time in my life I feel that I have a sense of
balance and peace that I have long sought after but not
attained. It is largely due to the efforts of Nahid Casazza.
She has worked with me for over a year in several individual
coaching sessions and through her business owner’s success
group.
What I find particularly valuable about Nahid’s approach to
coaching is that she has the ability to balance the right
amount of “listening and prompting” me to understand myself
and seek my own solutions; with just the right amount of
“suggestions and ideas” of her own.
She also has a remarkable and unique balance of business
skills and knowledge that allows her to understand the real
world as well as a very effective personal coaching style.
This has allowed her and me to “toggle” back and forth
between personal areas of need as well as to discuss
practical business issues and opportunities.
Nahid has been a major member of my support team and working
with her has lead to huge changes and positive differences
in every area of my life. My relationships with my wife and
children, business partner, and friends have all improved
substantially. I am more confident, serene and at peace. I
am in a very positive state of “equilibrium” in all major
areas of my life including: financial, career,
relationships, health (physical and mental), socially and
spiritually; to a large degree as a result of working with
Nahid.
There is no doubt in my mind that Nahid can and will
continue to make a positive difference in other people’s
lives and I would not hesitate to give her the highest of
recommendations.

Coaching with Nahid is a
remarkable experience. She helped me realize a powerful
potential in myself that continues to grow and has
completely transformed me to discover my positive "true
self" where I receive the respect I deserve and everything
is well organized and current.
I originally joined Nahid's Stress Elimination Workshop at a
time when I felt so frustrated and overwhelmed that I didn't
know where to turn to
eliminate the daily stress I was experiencing.
Nahid helped me establish tools for breaking down my tasks,
suggested methods for handling unplanned interruptions,
helped me write rules that set boundaries and made it
possible make important changes in my personal life. In
addition, she inspired me and offered positive feedback when
I had to write speeches for Toastmasters. I was recently
awarded a well-deserved promotion and substantial pay
increase. This was all possible through Nahid's powerful
coaching skills. She inspired, motivated and encouraged me
to try something new, and challenged me to get out of my
comfort zone and face my fears.
I now realize that to be coached is to have a trusted
professional help me find those gifts and skills already
within me that I had lost sight of or
didn't even realize were there. Investing in yourself is the
best investment you will ever make!

The questions you asked
really made me focus on specifics, which is good when things
are flying all around without much of a direction. The
whole process really made me think systematically about my
goal instead of emotionally! That has to be the biggest
benefit to me personally is it pulled me out the emotion and
let me address it just like a business goal - which I
rarely get emotional about! Thank you for reinforcing
those things that I believe about myself and helping me gain
the perspective I so desperately needed! - VB

I had extensive plans full of
steps and substeps and timelines for each project, but I
could not get started because I could not prioritize between
them. I was afraid that once I got going I would be quickly
overwhelmed. A single coaching session helped me sort
out the priorities, table some projects, and get started on
the first one first. I started seeing results immediately!
What a difference a great coach can make! - JR

The one on one sessions give us
ideas that are fresh and reflect the current business
climate. Every meeting we have, we come away with new
ideas, different strategies, increased energy levels and
totally motivated knowing we can move into the next
level. We would highly recommend her services to anyone
starting a business or anyone who has an established
business who is looking for intelligently managed growth.

Before I started working with Nahid, I
was unfocused and unable to make progress towards either my
career goals or my personal goals. I could figure out where
I wanted to be, but not how to get there, and I felt
continually overwhelmed by the tasks in front of me. Nahid
has helped me break down these tasks into meaningful chunks,
lay them down like a path towards my goal, and also to look
back and see the progress I have made and am continually
making. I feel much better prepared and motivated in my job
and in my personal time, and continue to use the tools she
has taught me to stay in control of my life! -NG

"I
greatly enjoyed and profited by working with Nahid. During our
sessions she added valuable insight, inspiration and
feedback helping me raise my companies rates without
alienating my clients. I would recommend her services
to business owners and managers alike". Paul A. Pacun,
President, Meiotic Inc.

Nahid's approach is to understand my life
goals with an emphasis on career objectives. She then helps
develop a strategy uninfluenced by company objectives. The
difficult thing about seeking advice internally is your own
company employees have motives that are not necessarily in
line with your own life goals. It has also been a
great way to put emotional business issues into perspective.
When I run up against difficult issues, she quickly comes up
with new avenues to approach the problem, and my
“analysis-paralysis” changes to decisive action. The focus I
get working with Nahid allows me to be effective at
attaining my life goals without getting overwhelmed by all
the people wanting my time and attention. -MT

Working with Nahid gave me the confidence
to finalize a successful job search (which lasted more than
a year in a tough economy) and the skills necessary for a
successful transition into a new management role. Her
coaching has helped me both professionally and personally. I
highly recommend her counsel. -EM
