I have always struggled with my weight.  For most of my life my weight didn't bother me enough to make me do something about it. It was just a number and I was able to live life as I had wanted and been content.   After gaining weight one winter I decided to do something about it, I started a competition with my family to lose weight - it worked, for a few months.  The weight started to creep back up, so again I decided to do something about it and participated in a weight loss program for about 9 months I was able to be regimented and lost weight, but I got bored and stopped doing the program and the weight came back.  Then I thought a nutritionist would solve all of my problems, that couldn't be farther from the truth.  What I didn't realize was that there were underlying things going on within myself and habits I had that I didn't realize I had until Amy & I talked.  She gave me a safe place to express my feelings however is naturally to me whenever I needed to.  Since we started talking I have began looking internally and found ways to enjoy life and be more content with my current weight and move it in the direction I'd like it to go.

    Separately, Amy became my yoga instructor at my weekly Wednesday class and I have seen a transformation within practice since she took over the class - my breathing has improved 100% and I have experimented and made progress with new poses.   The Wednesday class can be my one hour of peace a week sometimes and I truly treasure it.  The transformation also extends outside the yoga studio - I can cope better with stressful situations at work and with friends/family.

    I met Amy about 6-8 months ago; she was the one in the yoga class who could excel at every pose, I had no idea how she would impact my life.  It didn’t take long after we began talking for me to realize that I wanted what she had.  Her charismatic and enthusiastic demeanor is only matched by her wellspring of empathy and knowledge.  In short, she walks the walk.  Amy has helped me to see that I can have the life I’ve always wanted.  As a woman in recovery, I have been on a spiritual path, but had been on the path in the dark; I couldn’t see which way to go.  For me, spirituality has to be correlated with emotional and physical health.  From Amy I have learned about my body and how to honor it through exercise and nutrition, and have never felt as at home in my own skin before.  Amy’s expertise is unparalleled.  She has the skills of a personal trainer, nutritionist, healer, and motivator.  I have never met anyone as knowledgeable in such a variety of things, and yet, as you will come to see, they are all interconnected.  I recommend her services for any issue you may be dealing with.  I have had my share of tribulations, though today I live a life full of possibilities.  Amy is teaching me how to put thoughts and desires into action.  She is a light on my path.  As a testament to her ability, I am certain that she can aid you through whatever darkness or troubles are weighing you down.  You have everything to gain!

    "I met Amy through the IPEC Coaching program and she was my peer coach forseveral months. Amy is an earnest, present listener. She "shows up" for each session with energy, grace and respect.  Amy approaches each conversation without judgment, leaving me free to explore solutions to my challenges at my pace. I learned a lot working with Amy and trust she will deliver similarly to each and every client she encounters!"

    Before working with Amy Dawidowicz I really struggled with being able to express my wants and needs for my future to my parents. I wished to move away and be on my own but I did not have understanding or support from my family. When we would argue about the plans I have made I would quickly be overwhelmed by my emotions and frustrations and be unable to communicate effectively and let them know that my plans were well thought out and practical and would serve me later in life.

    After being coached by Amy I have the ability to communicate effectively with others without getting emotional and shutting down. Through voicing not only my frustrations but my plans to Amy, just as I would to my parents, she helped me to feel confident about my choices and that gave me the tools I needed to have my voice heard the next time the situation arose. I now have much less stress and anxiety about speaking up for myself and moving forward with my move and schooling and over all the things that are important to me. If you are struggling with finding your inner strength and having the confidence to make a change that is important to you I cannot recommend Amy enough to help you work through it!

    I know Amy as a friend and as a fellow yoga teacher.  I have seen Amy grow into a strong and self assured teacher and coach.  Amy is a true leader and inspires me with her boundless energy as well as her deep desire to serve others.  Amy has offered me effective tools so that I can tap deeper into my personal process as an individual and as a teacher within my community.  Amy's deep listening and professional insight have allowed me to break through old patterns and blossom into new potential.  I am thankful to have Amy as a friend and coach.

    Before working with Amy, I had a hard time seeing my value and how I wanted to be in my business.  I raced around doing this and that but never getting anything done and always felt frustrated day after day.  As a result of working with Amy, I was able to set a clear focus on my business and set up effective systems to support that vision.  Most importantly, I saw my value and that by playing and being small was not serving my clients and it certainly was not serving myself.  While working with Amy, I sold out a private group program in two weeks and already have my next program on the way to being filled!  Having Amy on my team really gave me the confidence to stand in my value and has truly made all the difference to my life and my business!
