What Our Clients Say

Venture Forward Client Testimonials

Illumination

“Coaching with Kimberly has given me an opportunity for deeper introspection. In a world where we can get battered by professional and societal expectations, it was a privilege to have devoted time for reflection. Just like in a guided meditation, where the voiceover instructions can help you come back to yourself and hone-in on awareness, Kimberly’s thoughtful questions, observations, and synthesis helped illuminate for me what is essential and true among the noise.”

Juliya B. Healthcare Administrator

Stress Reduction

“Kimberly, thank you! I want you to know that your work makes a difference. I often reflect on lessons learned from our work together two years ago. One of those key lessons was about non-striving. I used to feel guilty when I wasn’t productive but now I realize that non-striving is important for my mental health and I take time to pause and relax regularly. My stress levels are much lower than they used to be and I attribute a large part of this to the work we did together!”

KS Small Business Owner

Naming the Issue

“Kimberly provides a safe space to explore challenges; in every coaching session she helped me ‘name’ the issue or opportunity and why I wanted things to be different. I didn’t realize how critical this was to growth and improvement until I started doing it regularly. The result: amazing outcomes!”

Robin L. Global VP HR @ Elevate Healthcare

Deep Listening

“I am thankful for Kimberly’s skills in deep listening – she was quickly able to identify my concerns and needs, and I appreciated her approach to guiding me through the coaching process towards my desired outcomes.”

Jessy O. Managing Director, WI – Sustainable Business Council

Clarity

“Coaching with Kimberly helped me see myself as a leader and to fully step into my new role. My confidence increased a great deal and I gained important clarity about where I want to go with my career and what kind of leader I want to be.”

Kate H. University of WI Madison

New Awareness

“I’m grateful for the work I’ve done with Kimberly, it’s had a hugely positive impact on me. Specifically, I have new awareness about a key factor that had unknowingly been weighing me down with stress; with my new wisdom and awareness, I no longer carry that stress.”

Bryan M. President of Reelcraft

Great Investment

“I didn’t know what coaching was, going into it, but I got everything and more out of it – it was truly amazing, and the feeling I have and the growth I see in my organization as a result is amazing. An investment well made.”
