What Members Have to Say About Guides

EM
I absolutely love LifeGuides! I work in the healthcare industry and stress and anxiety is experienced by many in our field. I’m so happy I found a place where it allows me to speak to someone that understands our environment and give solid advice. I chose Carrie based on her profile and my intuition, and I’m glad I did. She is understanding, empathetic and knowledgeable with my current situation. Her advice is very helpful.

My guide did a great job of asking questions that helped me articulate my thoughts and feelings about my situation. I really liked that she took time to take notes and recap what my goals were and how I can be focused in each scenario

LifeGuides has been an excellent experience in so many ways! The ease to register; the ease to find a match online and then even better, the realization that the match is right on point for me. The attentive listening of my Guide has been excellent too and how she asked how she can support me (I loved that), plus the ideas she shared right away in our first meeting alone were so helpful.

"I felt heard! I can't express the relief, the peace that comes from being heard without someone's (friends, pastor, family) established perception of me filtering what they hear.”

- T. I. Hammond, Entrepreneurial Cohort Member
