Reconnecting to Life

“I first met Veronica during a leadership class that she taught at Stanford’s continuing education program. I decided to enroll in the class because at that time I had been through some obstacles in my life. The tech startup I co-founded didn’t go well and I had joined a few other startups subsequently, where my experiences weren’t superb. My personal and family relationships weren’t going too well because I had been hiding away from the people I love in my life. My health was also somewhat declining since I had been gaining weight and my energy level was just low. Veronica’s approach to leadership class was different than I had expected. Instead of teaching all of the business techniques, which you can search online, she focuses on getting your personal values in alignment with anything you are trying to do. Because I was seriously depressed, I decided to work with Veronica’s career coaching and therapy sessions. Each week, we would discuss things that I had been through during the week and identified situations that are challenging to me. We would come back to the value compass to evaluate if we can take an active stance to improve these situations. Her approach is generally through positive support and encouragement for me to be less self-limiting. Since my time working with her, my life has improved very much. I had become active again in exercising, and I reconnected with some of my friends who I haven’t stayed in touch with for a while. Through her professional guidance, I was fortunate to land a job offering at one of the top tech companies in the Bay area. For anyone who’s struggling in your career or life, I highly recommend working with Veronica!”

Healing and Recovery

“When I first met Veronica Foster my son was spiraling out of control. He was suffering from depression and drug and alcohol abuse. He stopped attending high school and did not socialize. Other contacts that I reached out to suggested that he go to in-patient treatment which I could not afford. Veronica was my last hope. She agreed to meet my son to do an assessment. That was the day that our life changed. With her experience, knowledge, compassion and the strong connection she was able to make with my son, he turned his life around. He stopped self-medicating, graduated high school and learned to deal with his issues. I also worked with Veronica about my past addiction issues. I have learned through mindfulness and other tools she gave me how to go forward with my life in a positive and productive way. She is very passionate about her work and it shows in everything she does. My son and I would not be where we are today if it were not for her dedication, compassion, expertise, and her ability to build trust that makes you feel safe.”

Source of Strength

“Veronica was a source of strength and calm for my daughter throughout high school. Her kind and professional manner was critical in helping my daughter through some very challenging times. Knowing that my daughter was supported by her and in good hands gave me tremendous peace of mind.

I would recommend her unequivocally.”
