"Bella Vita is about creating a whole, complete life that reflects all the pieces of who I am . . . Sharon is astutely sensitive to an executive's potential and greatness. She sees how an individual needs to learn and grow so that potential will be released in a balanced and harmonious way. I have observed Sharon working with me and working with other executives using incredible finesse and power. She is a commander of resources - and knows how to work in any setting or situation."

"Sharon is a great listener and her coaching helped me to realize the career direction I should take, given my skills and attributes. As a result, I've created a successful and satisfying career in this area. She's also helped me to find my leadership stance and, as my career has grown, to apply a style of leadership that not only has made me successful, but has helped me have more confidence in who I am, the teams I create, and the ability to stand for my principles, while serving the needs of my business constituencies. It certainly would have taken me much longer to achieve these results without the guidance and coaching I've received from Sharon.
She has a great ability to listen, understand, and help people find what areas they can build on or enhance the things that are already great."

"Sharon has a unique approach to coaching that includes an environmental assessment. As owner and founder of my company, I had made sure that all of the public spaces were in great shape. My office was populated with 1970's furniture that felt like a good example to the staff of the boss making sacrifices in a tough economy.
Sharon pointed out how my approach created a false public identity for me. I was actually creating the impression that I was disorganized and disengaged from the success of my company. Sharon showed me that I can be a credible, powerful leader and still have a handsome office space. She showed me that, in fact, my credibility with clients and staff alike would increase by improving my space situation.
Sharon
brings a wealth of experience and insight to her clients."

"Sharon has an eye for beauty and functionality, so she sees new possibilities in space and design. She's particularly resourceful about solving challenges. She's inventive and she came up with smart and inexpensive ways to make the most of my space. She came from the East coast to work with me, and although we had only a few days to do a lot, her mood was always one of fun and adventure. For me, it was a party!
According to feng shui philosophy, when you eradicate clutter and allow energy to move more freely, it opens new possibilities. I don't know if this is true, but I can tell you this: Within a couple of weeks after working with Sharon, my coaching and consulting practice had grown to full capacity and I had a fabulous new boyfriend, someone I feel like I've waited for a long time! My life is changed. And it was not only painless, it was FUN! So have Sharon help you create a new mood of great energy - a new life for yourself. And when you decide to work with Sharon, you'll love it, you'll love her, you'll love the results!"

"Sharon really opened up my eyes to the possibilities in my work surroundings and showed me that workspaces can be places of beauty and serenity - not just drudgery and chaos. She also helped me see that I could influence the creativity of my work by shifting the work environment. Funny, but now I'm even 'dressing up' a little more than I did before to go to the [home] office. I feel more confident and more professional this way. It's amazing. But now I'm committed to dressing more like the creative person I am, and to bringing that creative look with me everywhere."

"Working with Sharon, I came to understand the enormous negative impact of living in a space that did not reflect who I am in the world. I felt dragged down…even ashamed of having guests visit. It never occurred to me that the environments in which I spend time - living and working - could have that much of an effect on my confidence and vitality.
Fast forward three months: I'm now living in a space I love, feel good about, feel confident about and happily welcome guests to. It's such a contrast to before, and really revealing how much my spirit had been drained and zapped. A fantastic outcome! Sharon helped to reveal things about my space and about me - my life, my interactions with others, my belief systems that don't serve me. After completing my work with her, I'm delighted to report I've changed my ways."
