— Theo De La Rosa, Director, Tribal Employment Rights Office (TERO), Parker, Arizona

"By focusing on my goals, I was able to prioritize my life and continue to work on my career as a professional speaker and start my book, Native Heart. Grace asked all the right questions to keep me on track which empowered me to continue my work as a speaker with Native American women and diverse audiences. And, I have finished my book! It is currently in the last stages of being edited, and will be published later this summer!"

"I am excited about the techniques you shared with us at the Women Empowering Women for Indian Nations Conference and want to try all of them out. I have taken out my affirmation cards and have been thinking about 'I can choose healthy relationships!' more than anything. I've been using 'cancel cancel cancel' to stop negative thinking and haven't had but one headache since your class!"
— Beverly Melovidov, Aleut Community of St. Paul Tribal Member, Tanadgusix Corporation Board Member, St. Paul Island, Alaska

"A positive and supportive coach makes a real difference and opens the mind to more potential possibilities not fully realized. My experience with you assisted me to rethink what steps were needed to accomplish a major task and took me away from my normal working time to do more 'brain-storming' Kwah Hai."
— Leon Nuvayestewa, The Hopi Tribe

— Roberta Roberts, Public Relations Specialist, Navajo Tribal Utility Authority

"Grace is a good listener. Her reflections helped me understand my own issues and what I need to learn about my work life. I have worked with Native people and government for 15 years. Grace can help we belaganas work more effectively with tribal ways."
