Mindset Shift

I am incredibly grateful for the profound impact Dr. Loretta Shields has had on my life. Before working with her, I was trapped in a cycle of toxic thinking patterns that held me back from embracing people and opportunities fully. Through her compassionate guidance and insightful techniques, Dr. Shields helped me identify these negative thought processes and replace them with positive ones..

Worthy of Love

Her approach is deeply rooted in understanding individual needs, which allowed us to work together effectively towards transformation. With patience and empathy, she introduced strategies that aligned with my values and faith, enabling me to see myself as worthy of love and success.

Propelled me to Purpose

Dr. Loretta Shields is not just knowledgeable and professional; she’s a catalyst for transformation that propels you towards your destiny! Through her expertise, she empowers you to make meaningful changes, providing practical tools and techniques to guide you to the next level. Dr. Shields helped me embrace my uniqueness (e.g., hair, style, accent, etc.), allowing me to confidently walk in my purpose. Despite external pressures from family standards, she enabled me to break free from limitations and fears, empowering me to fully embody who I am meant to be, whether anyone else understood or not. Now, thanks to her guidance, I am confidently walking in alignment with my true purpose, and I do not care what family traditions or social norms say about it.

She connected our Emotions

I realized that I never considered where my partner was emotionally before interacting him. Now I am able to wisely approach him with conversations at the right time when he is most receptive. Essentially, I moved from selfish to unselfish to selfless. This creates deeper, more meaningful conversations, a deeper trust, and a respect for space and boundaries. Now, it’s less about what I need from him and more about being love to him. She taught me how to walk out my love for him.

Life isn't over

Relationship with loss is not something that many coaches address. After losing my mother, Dr. Loretta took me by the hand, listened with her head and heart, validated my emotions, opened my eyes to what a healthy grief journey looks like, and walked out my grief with me, one-on-one. It is really apparent that she has a background in pastoral counseling with how she approached me with compassion and empathy. Now, I am no longer afraid of my grief, and I no longer ignore my grief, but am embracing healing and life after loss.

What a Confidence Boost!

Dr. Loretta Shields provided invaluable support as I navigated my reluctance to lead in my church, where historically, women have not been encouraged in leadership roles. When the opportunity arose for me to step up, I felt unprepared and hesitant. Dr. Shields offered both affirmation and practical guidance, equipping me with essential ministry planning skills and teaching me how to forge partnerships within and beyond our organization. She also showed me how to build a diverse team and effectively delegate responsibilities. Thanks to her mentorship, I was able to embrace my leadership potential confidently!
