"Guide, teacher, inspiration: Ann Mehl is the kind of coach we all wish we had growing up. Someone who walks the walk and talks the talk. Someone who will empower you to tap your own inner resources in ways you didn't even believe possible. With her thoughtful and humane approach to Life Coaching, Ann Mehl will help bring out the very best in you - focusing your energies and harnessing your potential - in order to most effectively reach your goals. Everyone should be so lucky to work with a coach like Ann."
--Mark M. (Writer)

"In describing herself, Ann says her best qualities as a coach are that she makes people feel comfortable and that she is a good listener. I would say it differently. Ann doesn't make you feel or do anything. She quickly identifies your inner potential and then believes in it (even when you may not). Such belief allows you to call forward your power. Also, it's not that she's a good listener, it's that she's interested in you."

--Jeffrey B. (Managing Director)

"In the overcrowded field of personal coaches, Ann Mehl is a refreshing and life-affirming force. She brings enthusiasm, wit and uncommon wisdom to those of us seeking clarity of purpose. Ann has been the catalyst for me to begin the journey - and stay the course - toward effective personal growth."
--Rich W. (Triathlete)

“I worked with Ann during a crucial 3 month period of my life leading up to an international relocation.  I have to say, the benefits were both immediate and long lasting.  I left each session with renewed purpose and confidence.  Though I originally sought Ann's help with my career path and professional aspirations, I quickly found that the clarity and awareness I developed during our work together spilled over into many other areas of my life.  Ann is professional, caring, responsive, and effective and I feel quite privileged to have benefited from her help!  Her approach is practical, detail oriented, and interactive - perfect for building long term personal and professional success.”
--Catherine L., Grad Student

--Yvonne B., Consultant

“I had never worked with a certified coach before, but after working with Ann, I have become a huge believer in the positive impact coaching can have on one's personal and professional life. Ann helped me to let go of the hang-ups I had about starting my own business.  She has provided great ideas and has kept me on track with developing a new business concept. The exercises that Ann uses to facilitate her coaching help you to better understand who you are and what you can be good at. They are also a lot of fun to do.  When I have another session with Ann, I immediately feel reenergized and excited about the future.”
--Alina O., Accounting Policy Specialist

“As a working professional in New York City, I often feel that the physical and mental "clutter" of the city can be very overwhelming and somewhat debilitating.  When I felt I was losing focus on my true passions and priorities, not only at work but also in my personal life, I turned to Ann.  Ann's self-exploration process was a critical part of a larger strategy that helped me to uncover my creative energy.  Ann has been instrumental as I have become more focused and assertive in my personal and professional goals.”
--Kari W., Account Executive

“Ann celebrates those seeking greater self awareness and personal growth. She is deeply inspired by coaching and offers skills, strategies and wisdom, gained from years of professional recruiting to propel her clients forward. Ann’s patience, inquisitiveness and clarity enable her to reveal new, more inspiring directions to her clients. She will illuminate options you never considered while dismantling your fear-based thoughts and self-imposed obstacles. You will feel brighter in her presence and excited about who you are, even before you begin the process.”
--Kendra P. (VP)

"Ann did a great job of helping me identify non-productive behaviors and ways of thinking. She helped me understand the way I think and learn, and as a result I am able to be more decisive and proactive on the job. Working with a coach allowed me to explore my professional development issues and challenges more comprehensively than I could with a manager."
--Caitlin W., Deputy Managing Director

“Working one-on-one with Ann has provided quick and deep insights into how my behavior could be observed and improved. She challenged me to see how my thought patterns had a direct impact on my day-to-day interactions with colleagues across all levels of the company. Ann's insight and guidance have helped me to contribute more effectively to my team. She would be an asset to any organization that wants to foster growth, support individuals, and improve morale.”
--Lisa G., eContent Strategist

"Having always pursued the things that I felt were most important to me, I was constantly feeling empty. Ann helped me to realize that the dissatisfaction that pervaded virtually all aspects of my life were rooted in my not listening to the voice inside my head that I tried desperately to silence. We cannot afford to live other people’s lives, we must forge ahead with our own destiny. Ann was worth every penny I invested. She helped me free myself of self-imposed impoverished thinking."
--Carolyn L., Senior Consultant

"Working with Ann has invigorated my hope of having a successful and satisfying career. During our one-on-one sessions, Ann shines light on my self-defeating thoughts and introduces a new system of approach that enables me to move forward. Her expertise, guidance, and tremendous support as a life coach has put ground under my spinning wheels. I'm grateful for her help in revealing the person I always wanted to be."
--Denise M., Writer

"In today's world, it seems that all life endeavors are a struggle. We could trudge through our days submitting to those draining matters, or we can make a choice to live differently, to be free from such issues, to root ourselves among communities that nurture. And if you choose to make such a choice, it is important to surround yourself with individuals like Ann. When meeting Ann, you will feel as if you have known her for years. She has an infectious spirit that is genuine, transparent, and full of integrity. And yet, Ann holds an openness that is deep with mystery, wonder, and, ultimately, joy. In our years together, she never cowers from asking difficult questions or confronting challenges. While deliberate, she always acts with compassion and deep respect. For those fortunate enough to involve Ann in their journey, their once besieged lives will be enlivened and directed toward the ceaseless pursuit of truth and wholeness."
--Anna L. (Director)

“I've been working with Ann for nearly a year. Prior to working with Ann, it seemed that my life was filled with a number of unrelated and competing requirements.  A high-stress job, a new marriage and the needs of my family were leading to mental exhaustion. Although able to balance my life, I was easily thrown off by life's little curve-balls. I simply had too much on my plate and no idea how to alleviate the stress. Ann helped put my life back in perspective. The sessions allowed me to get through my work-days and her exercises were relevant to what I was experiencing each week. Working with a coach has changed how I look at my career.  Ann has truly taught me that I have options I didn't know were even available. Because of her, I've been able to take a much more holistic approach to how my career fits into my life.”
--Florence W., Designer

"Ann Mehl is practical, driven and focused. She knows how to set goals and stick to them. She has guided me through many important decisions and choices. She would be a pleasure to work with again."
--Katie G. (Manager of Education Programs)
