TESTIMONIALS

It was great to work with Carolina on public speaking through her three-months program. The curriculum is highly structured and well designed to drive progress in way that's effective but also manageable. She was always responsive to my questions, needs and provides great feedback both in person at our sessions and through email during weeks we don't meet. She's incredibly professional, experienced, observant, and just all-around great to work with. Wonderful program for any professional looking to improve presentation skills.

Vice President, Corporate Synergy at Warner Bros.


I truly appreciate what Carolina has been able to guide me through. I am without a doubt a better listener, communicator, and leader as a result of the work she has done with me. The techniques I have learned have been recognized by my senior management, so much so I have been asked to mentor fellow supervisors because of the success of my problem solving and conflict resolution skills. I have Carolina to thank for that!

Carolina was able to present the information in a manner that could speak to our mixed audience of executives, mid-management, and staff level employees. Incorporating interactive components to her presentations, whether a keynote, workshop, or closing presentation, brings to life the information that is being shared. Her presentation style will leave you contemplating how to apply the information to both your business and personal life.

Carolina's skill as a Program Facilitator is unmatched. The multifaceted and diverse professional and educational background she has cultivated through her own curiosity makes her an excellent facilitator.

Carolina's ability to weave, sometimes complex, theoretical concepts with real-world application, not only makes her highly effective, but also very credible. Couple those two with her very relatable and compassionate facilitation style and you have a rare combination indeed. I recommend Carolina with no reservations.

 

Alma Apodaca

Carolina is an amazing coach that helped me explore and express my personal growth to excel in being a leader in the the civilian sector. As a veteran, she helped me understand the working dynamics that strengthen my skill sets that I had in the military and bridge them over to translate into the civilian sector.

Carolina is an excellent coach. She has the unique ability to explain the most complex concepts is a way that you can understand. Her sessions are not generic, she first takes the time to understand her client or audience, then she customizes her session to fit her audience. This is likely why her sessions are very impactful and effective. I highly recommend Carolina without hesitation.

I had the wonderful opportunity to participate in interactive sessions that Carolina has presented, facilitated, and led through The Exchange LA. Carolina is always prepared and professional. She provides added insight and perspective, and obtains the audience’s active participation in a group discussion. I have learned so much from participating, and have implemented the concepts discussed in our sessions. I highly recommend Carolina for coaching, facilitation, and speaking engagements.

 

Ashley Huynh Esq., PHR, SHRM-CP

Executive Level HR and Recruiting Consulting


Carolina is a phenomenal coach and facilitator. I had the honor of being in the 2018 Leadership Pasadena cohort and it was such a privilege to have Carolina as a coach and mentor. Her ability to challenge and support us helped me grow in my professional field. One of the most eye-opening sessions for me was the workshop she did on conflict. This really helped me see some of my blind spots in dealing with my coworkers and conflict. Having this new knowledge has giving me awareness of situations where I could be sabotaging my professional relationships. That one workshop completely changed my outlook and gave me tools to improve. Carolina is so engaging and empathetic. She built a tremendous bond with everyone in our cohort. I've actually been encouraging my office to hire her for all of our coaching needs, because she truly is the best coach I've encountered in my professional development journey.

Carolina is one of the most insightful, poised and effective career coaches I've ever met. She's not only well-versed in a multitude of tools, but also curious about the whole person she's working with. I met Carolina at a leadership program 4 years ago. Having worked with her as a coach and collaborated in other capacities, I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her passion, skills and commitment will propel you in your journey - no matter where it takes you.

 

Jinghuan Liu Tervalon

Manager of Consumer Insights Pharmavite


I had the great fortune to be in the Leadership Pasadena Class of 2018 which Carolina facilitated. The class covered a range of topics over each weekend, including communication, dealing with conflict productively, team dynamics, unconscious bias, mindfulness & resilience. Every weekend was transformative, and created new insights into self and how we relate to others, and they to us. Carolina's approach was both directive and engaging. She would lead the group in a topic, encourage them to explore the subject together, and then provide exercises that would result in deep learning and change. There is no doubt that because of Carolina, the quality of my engagement with others and my performance as a leader has improved measurably. Anyone would be lucky to have the opportunity to work with her.

You will walk away from her presentation feeling as though you can achieve anything! You’ll gain another layer of awareness about how you show up and the energy you bring into situations. You’ll start to understand how the mind works and begin to make the shifts that will support your goals rather than sabotage them- truly empowering.

Carolina’s style is powerful and effective because it combines leadership strategies supported by evidence-based theories and pragmatic actionable steps that are relevant to my professional circumstances. She also knows how to engage her audience with personal anecdotes and light-hearted stories that help you relate to the ideas she presents. For someone very analytical like me, I benefit from her approach where the ROI and applicability of the concepts to my work are obvious immediately.
