What others are saying:
“Working with Janice has been revolutionary to my learning and development. Through her thoughtful and supportive coaching we’ve developed a bond that has helped me through a difficult time in my life. Because of her coaching I have been able to unpack deep feelings, become a more mindful person, share my art with the world and show up as my true authentic self. Janice helped me unpack the beauty of myself and has put me on the path to being my best version of me.”
"Phew. I am a feisty gremlin clawing at the edges of my current life, at once itching to expand and clinging to things exactly as they are. Janice lovingly brought my awareness to the ways I was standing in my own way, and shone a light on the unique qualifications I have to reimagine my own reality and then make it so. Through a process that felt safe and gentle, and at the same time scary and difficult and painful, I’ve accelerated the work of learning myself, loving myself as I am and forcing myself forward on the path of becoming the self I can be."
"Janice is a wonderful coach. She is a perfect balance between supportive, caring, practical and honest. In our first three months working together, she helped me dramatically reduce my stress levels, better communicate how I need support, and implement practical habits to improve my professional life and general well being. Thanks Janice!"
"Working with you allowed me to identify my personal and professional blockages. While being coached by you I was able to build bridges back to myself and my desires. I feel like I have taken care of everything and everyone and without noticing it I lost sight of what I want most for myself. You gave me a space to ask myself: what do you want? And you held the silence for me to answer. Through getting clear on what I wanted/needed I began to see those things come into my life. I even manifested a new, free office space when I felt stuck in my inability to afford one. This was the physical sign of an inward change, one you enabled me to make happen."
"When I arrived at coaching in December 2015, I felt trapped and anxious about both my personal and professional lives. For months, I had been paralyzed by these feelings. I had stopped making decisions, letting events unfold as they would, hoping I would be happier with the changes. When I began coaching with Janice, she helped me realize what I was doing. Our sessions became a space to discuss the big picture, not an exercise in checking off lines on a to-do list. What did I want out of life? I began to unpack and understand the role that I play in my surroundings, realizing that waiting to see how things unfold was not to my benefit. I began reclaiming responsibility for myself and taking an active role in shaping my future self.
Today, I'm getting closer to the person I want to be in the future. I'm giving myself space to find my way there. While it's still scary, I'm reflecting on how I can be intentional about moving closer to that future self.
Janice helped me get there faster and with a framework in mind ~ my values. I have become more confident in standing by my values. I will carry these with me going forward; my values have helped me develop a litmus test for what I want in my life.”
"Working with Janice has been pure joy. I feel heard, understood and not judged. By creating a safe space for me to be honest with myself, to explore, to discuss, and make mistakes, Janice empowered me to take the steps I needed to be closer to where I want to be in life.

"Working with Janice has enabled me to own my place in the world more comfortably. I am grateful to have had her guidance, and feedback. My coaching experience has been an invaluable step in my career."
"Coaching with Janice has been a powerful experience. I initially came to coaching to be more effective at work and a vague sense that I wanted to be happier in my personal life. But I didn’t understand exactly what coaching was or how the experience would help me do that. Janice took the time to get to know me on a personal level before delving into issues helped me see the heart of the matter on situations and problems I was bringing to coaching on a weekly basis. She helped me see patterns I get stuck in, why these situations were triggers for me, and what I could do to overcome them. She has an ability to help me connect my spiritual, emotional and psychological self to the small daily situations. And has helped me work on connecting with my deeper self while not forgetting to help me with the things I have to accomplish that day or that week. She is warm, caring, extremely supportive inside and outside of our coaching sessions, and firm and holds me accountable when I need it. She’s also extremely insightful – there were many moments I stopped dead in my tracks during a train of thought because she’s pinpointed something about me that I don’t think about on a daily basis but is the key issue underneath it all. She also tailored coaching specific to me and my needs, and encouraged me to speak up and take steps to get even more out of the experience than I had been getting. Her coaching has become the foundation for a renewed deeper connection to myself and many improvements in my life and relationships. I would highly recommend Janice as a coach."

"When I came to coaching I felt that my personality was holding me back in my career and in my social life.
I have found a bigger world to live in comfortably and have found peace within myself that I didn’t think was possible before. I’m learning to stretch myself in ways that honor who I am, allowing me to achieve growth with less pain.
Janice has an innate sense to know when to step in and talk and when to listen. You always seem to have a resource or an idea that will tip the mind onto a new path leading toward more light and more love.
My biggest learning has been to accept myself and love myself, and to know that I can achieve more, be happier and love more by honoring me.
Working with Janice has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. I wish I had the opportunity to do so earlier in life! I feel at peace after each session, and my mindset has changed more in a few weeks than I ever thought was possible. Thank you so much!"
"My coaching with Janice came at a pivotal point in my life and career, and the time I spent with her has helped me to make a profound shift in how I approach them both. Her intuitive approach made me feel like I was understood and appreciated at a deep level, and her suggested readings and other resources were always spot on for what I needed to uncover. Even a few months on, our conversations are fresh in my mind, and the things I learned continue to be of great value every day. I am grateful to have experienced her guidance and wisdom, and appreciate the dedication she brings to her coaching practice."
"I want to thank you for your work with me as a life coach. It has been an insightful and rewarding experience. From the start, you helped me prioritize the importance I place on my health, financial security, personal relationships with others as well as my commitment to my own personal growth. Guiding me with questions and visualizations, you led me to discover things about myself that I couldn’t see before. I was able to start to identify those areas of my life that I would sabotage my growth through false beliefs and negative thinking and I found my sense of humor again. These has been and remain important tools to use to make life a more positive and rewarding experience.
It seems ironic now that focusing on the simple things that make me happy were so less important before I came to you. A bike ride, a hike, going to an art show or just calling a friend for lunch or dinner seemed to be not worth the time or effort. My attitude of “I’ll do it tomorrow” or “do I really want to make the time” kept me from having a richer and more fulfilling life. By refocusing on my priorities, I have more discipline to do the things I’m resistant to do like eating healthier and exercising.
One of the great gifts of having worked with you is my new relationship. It’s been over 2 years since my divorce and all my life since I’ve been in a successful relationship. Between my work in Alanon and with you, I’m able to know what I want in this relationship and not compromise by giving my power away. As a result, we have a deeper understanding and appreciation of each other and a stronger base to grow together rather than apart and I can let love in without reservations.
Today I can enjoy what is in store for me without being mired in the past or fearful of the future. Today is my day to embrace and experience. Thank you again for being part of my self-discovery."
"Janice, you are a true coach of coaches.
You have all the attributes of a great coach. Intuitive, creative, spiritual, compassionate with a side of kick ass. Your insights are right on. The sessions flow and you always seem to hit on the inner truths.
I would recommend you to anyone looking to get a move on in their life. Hold it up to the light. Shake the cobwebs loose and start creating. I am proud to call you an inspiration and mentor."
"Janice has the ability to be in the moment as thoughts and reactions come to the surface and help to clarify thought processes as they happen. This is extremely valuable in learning how I react to various experiences and change some of my "default" reactions. Working with her has helped me clear away some of my negative thinking and take positive action in my life. And she has helped me find laughter while I'm doing it. I really appreciate her energy, warmth and gentle style."
"Working with Janice Reches has propelled my life force forward in the most profound way. I came to her wanting to gently change my life, and change my mind around my work. Janice is a phenomenal listener, a gifted thinker, and an insightful guide. I leave our sessions filled with clarity, hope, and a positive sense of self and the path I am clearing."
