Thank you, Michael and Dr. Chérie, for all the great teachings along the way. It has been a transformational experience for me and has made me a better person and a better coach/mentor. My only regret is that I didn’t discover coaching and MMS/Mindspan much earlier in my career.

MICHAEL LEE
CEO of Honeywell

I would give myself a 100% score for choosing the MMS Coach Training. I joined with an open mind—even after previous trainings—and I truly transformed. I found the courage to step out of my comfort zone, and now I have the confidence to become and embody the role of a coach.

JOAN SHAO
TECC #5

I believe that the lessons and tools provided during the MMS Coach Training are so practical that they can be applied to all everyday situations. They are so powerful that they can actually make a difference. I do not see a more profound, fast, and effective way to help a coachee.

MARC PADBERG
Hub Leader, Middle East. Aberkyn

The TECC3 experience helped me deepen my awareness and listen to the voice in my heart. I realized I have many choices—and it’s up to me to take the driver’s seat in my life. Now, I’ve chosen to help those around me grow and find happiness, knowing that in doing so, I grow and find joy too.

YOSHI
TECC #3

The teachings and curriculum are deeply rooted in her own diverse career and experiences as an internationally-recognized consultant, advisor, and coach. The curriculum design provided comprehensive content, and included useful and accessible provisions of ongoing community support.

SUSAN OTT
SVP, Growth & Marketing, eviCore.com

Dr. Chérie is the most knowledgeable pacesetter in coaching and coach training. I am glad to know that she is going to lead the TECC from China/Asia. A learning program led by her will be a journey of faith, trust, and love.

Transformational Life Coaching

"The book does not open with a simple coaching philosophy. It opens with a legacy. You do not ask readers to guess at the secrets of successful coaching. You share the time proven strategies from the founder of the renowned MMS Institute, a woman known as the original life coach who has appeared on Oprah, The Today Show, and CNN. That is the difference between a coaching guide that theorizes and one that actually equips, and it sets the stage for Transformational Life Coaching, a book that readers have rewarded with a 4.4 star rating and reviews calling it the ultimate teaching guide for anyone who wants to make a difference in the field of coaching.

That concept from your book, the idea that becoming at one with yourself before leading and teaching others is essential to bringing solid positive change to clients' lives, is not just a principle. It is about the aspiring coach who wants to build a thriving practice but does not know where to start, the professional who wants to market herself and create a support community, the individual who longs to empower others to face challenges but needs a clear action plan, the coach who wants to assess her own talents and formulate goals before guiding others. Those readers are still out there searching for a comprehensive guide, and Transformational Life Coaching was written specifically for them.

So I am genuinely surprised that a book with such a powerful and practical approach, 4.4 stars from readers who call it a must have for any aspiring or practicing coach, with tangible methods and tactics for optimum achievement in coaching others, is not sitting comfortably among the top titles in the coaching and personal development categories. The problem is not quality. The problem is that the coaching space on Amazon is crowded, and right now there are not enough targeted keywords or reader conversations happening around Transformational Life Coaching for it to be discovered by the thousands of aspiring coaches actively searching for exactly what this book offers.

You are also invited to write your own review of the book!💗"
