What my clients are saying
“I finally feel proud of who I am.”
Before I started working with Betty, I was on a career path that didn’t reflect my values. I’d taken a mental health break from work and knew I wanted something different but I wasn’t sure how to get there without slipping back into old habits.
Coaching helped me pivot from asset management into consulting, a path that feels way more aligned with who I am and how I want to lead. I landed an internship at my top-choice company, but more importantly, I learned how to take up space as a queer person, speak up even when I’m not 100% sure, and trust my voice in rooms where I used to stay quiet.
Now, I show up as myself, whether I’m in class, at work, or at home. And I feel proud of that. Our coaching helped me find a sense of joy and ease that I didn’t even realize I was missing.

AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION + WELLBEING
“Now, I see my emotions as a source of strength rather than a hindrance.”
Even with a therapist, I was constantly overwhelmed and hard on myself. I tried to handle everything alone, but it just made things worse. Honestly, I wasn’t sure I could change.
But I saw what coaching with Betty did for my friends. Their confidence and creativity reached stratospheres! And I realized I wanted that for myself too.
Now, I’ve got that. I feel stronger and more grounded. We created tools that actually work for me, and I’ve learned to understand my emotions instead of being afraid of them. What used to feel like a weakness now feels like power.
— Diego Mejia, Filmmaker & Teacher
ANXIETY MANAGEMENT + SELF-TRUST
“This transformed the way I saw myself, my work, and my life.”
I expected coaching to help me organize my goals and the steps to achieve them. While this was a part of it, the most valuable experiences I had was going through a deep dive of my strengths, presence, coping patterns, and what motivated me.
This knowledge transformed the way I saw myself, my work, and my life. Now, I navigate challenges from a place of self-knowledge, strength, and kindness.
Betty is unbelievably present, sharp, and sensitive. Throughout our sessions, I was constantly thinking “they get it.” With them, I always felt pushed, never pressured. I am so happy I accepted their invitation to get on a call to learn more about coaching – it may have been one of the best decisions I made that year!
— Bia Zappa, Social Impact Strategy Director
SELF ADVOCACY + BURNOUT RECOVERY
“I am choosing me for the first time, and I couldn’t be more proud of myself.”
Words can’t really describe how much of an impact Betty had made on me. She helped me find my authentic voice which has rippled in ways I couldn’t have imagined. I was able to advocate for myself, which resulted in savings of thousands of dollars. And when it came to my relationships, they have either run their course or strengthened.
— RW, Learning & Development Specialist
MONEY + COMMUNICATION
“I can finally savor my successes.
After years in startup culture, I got really good at pattern recognition—and I found myself reverse-engineering most of the mentors and coaches I met. I became more self-aware, but something deeper was still missing.
Betty is different. Instead of jumping into tactics, she went straight to the root. I didn’t realize how much I was carrying until her thoughtful, challenging questions uncovered what was buried in plain sight.
If you value clarity, look no further than Betty. Her precision as a personal and business coach is second to none.
— Johnny Nguyen, Founder & Startup Growth Expert
CAPACITY, CREATIVITY, WEALTH + EMOTIONAL FLUENCY
“I was searching for an exit, but I found clarity instead.”
When I first came to coaching, I was ready to quit my job. I thought changing my circumstances was the only answer, but what I really needed was to reconnect with myself.
With Betty’s support, I stopped chasing the perfect exit and started listening to what I actually needed. I stayed, not out of fear, but from a place of clarity and confidence. Read more →

CAREER CLARITY + SELF-TRUST
“I stopped being a prisoner to productivity, and started protecting my peace.”
Before coaching, my days were packed and my mind was scattered. On the outside, I looked steady, but inside, I was overwhelmed, and difficult conversations would stick with me for days.
I’ll be honest, I was skeptical at first. I worried coaching might be too ‘woo’ for me, but what I found with Betty was rooted, real, and refreshingly practical. Because of her background, I didn’t have to explain where I was coming from. With her support, I rediscovered my forgotten dream of becoming an Executive Pastor—and realized I don’t have to delay my future. I can lead, serve, and build the life I want without splitting myself in two. Read more →
— Paul Lee, Strategic Advisor of PMO
PRODUCTIVITY + CAREER CLARITY
“I get to build this my way.”
My dream list was long and the fear was real. I thought that if I just worked harder and celebrated enough wins, I’d figure it out. But I kept hitting a wall in my new business.
Coaching with Betty felt like entering a judgment-free zone where I could unravel, explore, and try again. I gave myself space to name what was hard about sustaining a business—and stopped believing there was one ‘right’ way to do it. This experience reminded me that courage, rest, and self-trust can all coexist in entrepreneurship.
— Tanvi Mittal, Entrepreneur & Coach
SELF-TRUST + ALIGNED BUSINESS
“Knowing my purpose became a cornerstone.”
Before coaching, I’d only done therapy and I was still wondering how to actually move forward.
Betty helped me put clear language to what I wanted and needed in my career and romantic life, which made everything feel clearer and more exciting again. It helped me cut through the clutter faster and with far less anxiety than I would have on my own.
Our sessions were grounding and motivating, and I always left feeling more sure of myself.
— Chantelle Bacigalupo, Journalist & Doula
PURPOSE + COMMUNICATION + HEALING
“I have the power to make real what I wanted.”
It’s hard to overstate how different my life has become since I started coaching. I did not expect to accomplish as much as we have!
Betty helped me see the value in thinking out loud and unpacking my mind. They didn’t cast aside the lived experience of a POC who has worked historically in white-led organizations, and they are able to hold space for those difficult dynamics.
With their gentle reflections, they reminded me of the strength and resilience I already have. I gained all manner of tools and skills to navigate around future challenges when they present themselves.
— Jaweer Brown, Director of Marketing & Branding
SELF-TRUST + ENTREPRENEUR VALUES
“It felt like I unlocked the boss level in a video game.”
When I started coaching with Betty, I was five years into running my business and proud of what I’d built—but decision-making still felt heavy and unclear. I didn’t expect my personal life to have such an impact on my business choices, but every session made those connections clearer. Betty’s guidance was gentle and genuine, and somehow always spot-on. Her metaphors helped me see things in a whole new way, and her calm presence made it easier to trust the process.
By the time we circled back to decision-making, it felt like I’d unlocked the boss level in a video game. What once felt overwhelming now feels doable. I highly recommend Betty to anyone who wants a compassionate guide while navigating life’s uncertainties! Read more →
— Vivien Uliana, Founder & Chef
RELATIONSHIPS + SELF-TRUST
“Opportunities started showing up once I gave myself permission to be myself.”
When everyday tasks and coming up with a plan felt like a staggering mountain, I put my pursuits on hold. With Betty's encouragement, I put myself out there in ways that felt easy and authentic. Doing this created a snowball effect: I am talking to potential partners, speaking in a room of experts, and getting hired for an idea I’m passionate about.
Being engaged and excited by what I’m doing led to greater proactivity and trust that I can make it happen. For the first time in a long time, I can see the steps ahead clearly. Read more →
— Thomas Mendez, Owner & Attorney
BUSINESS LAUNCH + BOUNDARIES + ADHD
“I never felt more sure, confident, and motivated.”
Coaching with Betty helped me reconnect with myself and find happiness, even during overwhelming changes.
When I was stuck in a role that didn’t feel right, she helped me turn what I didn’t want into a clear vision of what I truly love to do. That clarity and support were exactly what I needed to feel more confident and motivated.
Coaching turned out to be different from what I expected—and 10 times better. I now feel like I know myself on a deeper level than ever before. Thank you, Betty!
— Erika Bellido-Jin, VP of Operations
BUSINESS VISION
“I learned to land on my feet and found my way back to my happy.”
I had so many important epiphanies during my time with Betty! Her coaching helped me to land on my feet after a layoff. We identified the major blockers to my happiness in my personal and professional life, and knowing this clearly helped me make choices that better aligned with my purpose – from where to live, what work fits my skills, and how to reduce my expenses.
I’m grateful I can finally relieve my stress and make real progress!
— Brittany Robles, Human Rights Specialist
BURNOUT RECOVERY + CAREER PLANNING
“I have greater trust in myself to decide on what I need.”
Betty's coaching transformed the way I think about my time and energy.
What I loved about our sessions was how supportive it felt to have her as a trusted partner. She guided me back to my intentionality while I navigated caregiving, moving homes, and shifts in my career.
Betty strikes the perfect balance between structure and flexibility in her approach. Her unwavering support has made a lasting impact on both my personal and professional life. I look forward to our third year together! Read more →
— Tracy Del Bianco, Chief of Staff
LIFE TRANSITION PLANNING + BUSINESS STRATEGY
“I can show up without putting myself last.”
I was initially skeptical about coaching and whether it would be a worthwhile investment. The experience turned out to be incredibly valuable and personal.
It helped me develop the ability to recognize when to slow down, take a pause, or step away when I felt scattered at work.
Betty also prompted me to rethink the goals I had (and did not have) for myself and to find ways to work without putting myself last.
— Allison Kadin, Vice President
PRODUCTIVITY MINDSET
“I’m more confident as a dad, husband, and leader.”
Betty’s coaching gave me a better understanding of my own behaviors, habits, and preferences.
In our time together, I learned to separate the noise and expectations from what is truly meaningful to me. This clarity gave me access to a sense of joy and freedom that I don’t find on my own.
Now, I know my decisions in and out of the workplace help me become a better dad, husband, and leader.
— Steven Fukuda, Director of Clinical Operations
LEADERSHIP MINDSET
“We explored complicated matters without judgement.”
Betty’s ever-present demeanor made it easy to be transparent: she/they have the ability to let me be messy and guided me through complicated systemic barriers when we worked on my goals.
—Aisha Ghosh, Recruitment & Acquisition Consultant
LEADERSHIP MINDSET
“Betty’s workshop reminded us that bootstrapping isn’t a badge of honor.”
I brought Betty in because I wanted our team to connect more meaningfully, and that’s exactly what happened. Everyone opened up in surprising ways, and really appreciated the time to reflect together.
Reflection Rooms are well worth the time and financial commitment. It showed my team I care about their mental health, and gave me a chance to slow down too. Everyone loved it. We got out of it exactly what we hoped for. We're already thinking about how to make reflection a regular part of our lives.
– Gayla Kirkland, Founder of No Trace
“We’re still talking about the powerful experience and space created for us.”
Betty supported us by designing and facilitating a bespoke offboarding experience for our team of nineteen. It included an evaluation of our team’s performance, 1-1 coaching, and a virtual team retreat.
The exercises challenged our team and led to deep, authentic conversations. Betty’s facilitation made it very enjoyable, and her/their steadfast commitment to our objectives kept the focus on the humans involved.
We greatly appreciated her/their brilliance, guidance, and stewardship throughout the process. It taught us so much and has brought such intentionality to our work and to the people in it. It's been an absolute joy to connect and learn with Betty.
