Is It Lonely at the Top?

What Chris Cook’s Clients Are Saying

Chris has helped me become a better executive. I’m a better listener, and I’m handling stress better by realizing when to let things go that I can’t change. During this time of extraordinary challenges in the entertainment business, Chris has helped us come to a common vision, function as a team and communicate better using a shared language. This has made a difference in bringing organization back into the company. —John C. Schweiger, Chairman and CEO, Coming Attractions Theatres, Inc.

Chris holds a neutral, safe space for me to work on my business and personal growth. I uprooted unhelpful beliefs that held me back, and within a year, I achieved the big, scary goal I had set for myself. She empowers individuals to believe we have within us what we need to change and gives us confidence to trust the choices we make for ourselves. I could not ask for a business coach who better fits my growth style, and I could not have achieved my goals as quickly or effectively without Chris’ help. —Anne Lundgren, Producer, Joma Films

I so enjoyed my personal coaching time with Chris. She is honest, dynamic, playful, open and understanding. I was able to keep on track with my positive developments by focusing on my truth and seeing my false truth from other perspectives, transmuting fear into possibilities. She maintained the coaching (not counseling) position, and for that I was grateful. I was always moving forward, occasionally looking back but never going back. I felt heard and safe when I was with her. After our sessions, I felt enthused, rejuvenated and inspired to continue being the best me! —Jenifer K., Arts Administrator

I think of you often and feel such gratitude for the time that I worked with you. I know I am drawing from the support and tools you gave me as I take this huge step. Thank you so much for being there for me and for being who you are in this world. —Laura H., Artist and Teacher

Thank you for the amazing coaching service you provided for me. The two things your coaching service helped me realize that resonate with me are: 1) You are perfect just the way you are; 2) Be your authentic self. You helped me realize that when you’re not living faithfully to your authentic self, you find yourself feeling incomplete, as if there is a hole in your soul. Your communication and energy motivated me to continue a path of authenticity when I build business relationships and to let joy rather than fear be my guide. —Mary J., State Administrative Employee

Thanks as always for your keen ears and insights. My awareness has changed, my ability to “stay in choice” and to not let saboteurs run my thought process. I have gained a lot more trust in myself, in following my instincts specifically so I feel more in control of my life, which is a pretty amazing feeling! I see the connection between feeling in control of your decisions and the appreciation of those little things because I am not spending time struggling to gain control. I can see what I may have overlooked before is now right there in front of me, and that is a great enrichment to my life! Although I always felt able to tackle the hand dealt to me, now I feel like I can be the dealer at times. And if I can be the dealer, then really anything is possible! I can choose to deal again—I can let the game play out. It comes back to the idea of control for me; I don’t feel desperate and out of control, so I am not making decisions based on desperation or lack of control. That is freeing! —Sheila R., College Professor

Thank you for everything. You asked powerful questions and held a space for me, just two of the many things you did that allowed me to find my own voice. Your curiosity was evident and you always offered the perfect tool to shed light and open up a topic. I plan to continue exercising gratitude to increase the positive emotion in my life and the lives of those I touch. Throughout our sessions, I felt your warm support and complete lack of judgment. I hope to integrate that, not only in my own coaching, but in all that I do. —Lisa, Program Associate, Professional Association
