Testimonials

Lola is a professional, talented, grounded, and caring coach. She has a natural ability to build trust, conveying that she’s present, holding the space and actively listening. She brings a strong knowledge of somatic work and integrates that powerfully into her coaching process. Our time together helped me learn to tune into my body, gain awareness around my automatic reactions to situations and begin to find ways to respond more consciously and from a more empowered place inside myself. I’m so grateful to have had the chance to be coached by Lola! I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

I had the opportunity to work with Nancy and her team at Element Coaching and HR Consulting during a particularly challenging period in my practice, when we were facing several complex human resource issues involving employee leave laws. These were not straightforward matters, and I was concerned about both compliance and the potential for costly litigation.

From the outset, Nancy demonstrated an exceptional ability to quickly grasp the nuances of the situation. Within a short time, they assessed the risks, identified key legal considerations, and developed a clear, step-by-step strategy tailored to our specific circumstances.

Their guidance was both practical and highly informed. She walked me through each stage of the process, ensuring I understood not only what actions to take, but why those steps were necessary.
Thanks to her expertise, we were able to navigate overlapping leave requirements with confidence, remain compliant, and ultimately avoid what could have been significant legal exposure.

I particularly appreciated her responsiveness, clarity, and steady approach under pressure. Her
support gave me peace of mind during a stressful time and allowed me to stay focused on running my practice. I would strongly recommend Nancy and Element Coaching and HR Consulting to any
professional seeking knowledgeable, strategic, and reliable guidance on complex HR and employment matters.

I began coaching at a pivotal point in my career, balancing countless priorities while facing big decisions about what was next. I was stretched thin and knew I needed clarity, accountability, and a little tough love...I just didn’t know where to start.

Nancy was instrumental during this season. She listens beyond the surface, asks the questions you didn’t know you needed, and creates a space that is both grounding and energizing. Our sessions were intentional and honest, helping me uncover challenges, opportunities, and even emotions I hadn’t fully recognized. She embraced it all and always challenged me to dig deeper.

Because of this important work, I didn’t just gain clarity, I stepped into my next chapter with intention and confidence. I feel more aligned, decisive, and grounded in how I lead and live. I look forward to partnering with Nancy again throughout my career!
