What People Are Saying
About Career & Life Coaching With Paige Gutacker

Rachel W.
"It seems that everyone has a few nagging goals which never seem to get done and always manage to be discouraging. Coaching was the customized accountability I needed to conquer those goals one session at a time and never alone. Paige let me set the pace and then reminded me to keep up with it. A far cry from self-help or a cookie-cutter 10-step program -- coaching was catered to my personal journey. Thanks for laughing with me, Paige!"

"To Those Who Want to Move Forward: I hired Paige to coach me between finishing my job and beginning graduate school. I wanted to prepare myself for what was coming, but I didn't quite know how. Paige helped me take my nebulous desires and turn them into clear goals with actionable steps to take toward each one. She was there all along the way to help me continue refining my goals, to help me think through new challenges, to keep me focused on the big picture, and to cheer me on. If you find yourself needing direction, or help breaking through an obstacle, or you just want help moving forward in your life, I strongly encourage you to let Paige help. You won’t regret it."
Jessica T.
"Coaching with Paige has been the most valuable investment I've made toward reaching my goals; I never could have done this project without her. Paige helped me strategically navigate essential tasks and set real-world, attainable goals. Perhaps even more significantly, she helped me to identify the strong emotional undercurrents pulling me in unhelpful directions and to redirect those into routes that I actually believed in and wanted to take. Paige is professional, intuitive, encouraging, and motivational. I strongly recommend coaching with Paige!"

"From our first meeting, Paige helped me figure out what my priorities were and how to go about fulfilling the goals I needed to reach. She asked excellent questions that helped me come to my own conclusions, my own solutions, but she also kept me accountable—the missing ingredient from previous attempts to organize myself. Besides all that, she’s a wonderful, caring person. I would recommend Paige as a life coach wholeheartedly."
Whit P.
"Paige helped me transform complex, difficult tasks into simple, achievable goals. She's a great coach, and I will always keep her on the payroll."

"Before beginning coaching, I was constipated — I felt completely stuck and unable to move forward on my own. I couldn’t see any possibility for what to do. I felt unequipped, with nothing to offer. Through six weeks of coaching with Paige, I can now name my strengths and talents, and I have the confidence to live and work out of those. By asking good questions that allowed me to think through my past, assess my present, and dream about my future, Paige helped me see that I am made a certain way and I do have things I want to do! I’ve grown in the hope of possibility for my life, for what could be, and I don’t feel so stuck. Thank you, Paige!"
Jessie L.
"I feel like coaching is some kind of voodoo magic that I don't understand! Somehow in talking to Paige I seem to say better and more accurate things than I say to other people. I don't totally get why coaching is so awesome, because it usually feels very much like I'm just telling Paige things I already know . . . but then somehow things happen, things change."
Linda B.
"I had the opportunity to work with Paige for a second time recently. I was standing at a distinct crossroads, the ending of one career with no clear idea of what “should” come next. After six weeks of meeting with Paige, I was amazed at what I had discovered about myself, about God, and about that “should.” As much as I would have liked for Paige to just tell me what she thought I could or should do about anything, she wouldn’t. She asked questions—very good, thoughtful, probing questions. And then she waited patiently for me to think. If I got stuck, she asked a different question, redirecting my thinking to encounter the problem from a different angle, thus helping me get unstuck and moving forward again. She would offer suggestions for further reflection or research based on what I said my goals were. She was not only patient, but kind, intelligent, and empathetic. Her demeanor and tone created an atmosphere of trust, allowing me the freedom to be honest with myself in front of her. If I ever need a life coach again, I will seek her out without hesitation."

"One of my main reasons hiring a coach was to discuss where I want to be in five years. Paige’s coaching enabled me to articulate why I was aiming for a master's degree and how my values and gifts made me a competitive candidate for graduate programs. In fact, I went on to use what I learned from our discussions of my StrengthsFinder results directly in a graduate school interview! While I generally find identifying values to be difficult, Paige used a variety of resources and creative approaches to help me clarify my personal values. Each session Paige took extensive notes, using these to enhance our future sessions. Paige is a kind, intelligent, and lively conversationalist while also a keen listener. Paige’s attitude and consideration greatly enhanced my experience with coaching – encouraging me to take seriously these sessions while also feeling comfortable and safe to discuss important personal topics."
