Completing my life coach certification with Clear Inner Focus has been one of the most meaningful decisions I’ve made for myself. The intimate class size allowed for genuine connection and meaningful conversations, and the emphasis on self‑care helped me slow down, listen inward, and grow in ways I didn’t expect. I left the program feeling grounded, supported, and ready to step into coaching with clarity and confidence. If you're looking for a program that blends practical skills with deep personal growth, this is a wonderful choice.

One of the things we value most at Clear Inner Focus is creating space for real integration — not just learning concepts, but slowing down enough to hear yourself clearly and grow from the inside out.

I always had a voice inside telling myself I wanted my career to be centered around helping people. I truly wanted to make a positive impact in the world... I thought I was past my prime in making a difference in others' lives, but I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to have a session with Patty. It changed my life, and I soon became a Certified Life Coach through the Clear Inner Focus Life Coach Certification course. I now have tools to combat many situation in life.

One that truly aligns with my desire to help those in need and make a positive impact in the world.

So thrilled that I chose to get my life coaching certification through the course offered at Clear Inner Focus. The coaches, content and my classmates are spectacular! The course has been extremely valuable for my own personal growth as well as my training to pursue coaching professionally in my own business. I also had the wonderful opportunity to pursue 1:1 coaching with Tracey. She helped me make significant changes in my perspective, and persistent unproductive thought patterns that I identified in coaching as roadblocks to living the life I desire both personally and professionally. Tracey graciously provided the space and guidance for me to forge a new path going forward to fulfill my goals and dreams, and improve the relationships in my life. She offered this with masterful skills, tools and her beautiful heart! Both Patty and Tracey have made a beautiful impact on my life, and how I perceive and live it! I will be forever grateful for all that they have taught me and given me ❤️

The class not only helped me prepare for a career in Life Coaching, but the skills I learned really helped me with parenting, relationships and my own wellbeing. I remember having personal coaching sessions with Patty through the class. The wisdom she shared with me 15 years ago is still relevant in my business today. Her expertise, excellent teaching style and authentic manner helped me create a successful career. I highly recommend Clear Inner Focus Mindset Coaching & Life Coach Certification.

One of the best things I've ever done for myself is to enroll in and complete the Coach Certification Program! Absolutely the most valuable coaching skills training I've ever received. Beyond that, it teaches how to know yourself first, and care for yourself first, not only before you coach, but before you engage with anyone in your life experience. It teaches you a new way to live, to be, and to focus both head and heart on what's most important, regardless of situation or goals in life. The instructors are top notch and they really care! They make the program fun and interesting, and you won't believe how fast 16 weeks go by. I am, and will always be learning, growing, developing, and the ride just became much more interesting!

Response from the owner · 2 years ago

Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Ron! We're thrilled to hear that you found our Coach Certification Program valuable and transformative. It’s our goal to guide you in both personal growth and coaching skills. We appreciate your kind words about our instructors and the program experience. Keep enjoying the journey of learning and growth!

The coaches and programs offered are excellent. I have gotten so much more out of coaching sessions than just therapy. Coaching wants to know where you are and where you want to go and helps you get there. It is positive and uplifting and shows you amazingly how to turn your focus around so you can anticipate all that you want coming to you. Patty has developed a business that serves so many groups of people: teens, families, couples, individuals. Clear Inner Focus truly serves the community.

Response from the owner · 2 years ago

Thank you for the incredible feedback, MarryAnn-Ken! We are overjoyed to hear about your positive experiences with our team and the plentiful gains from the coaching sessions. Patty and the team are doing their best to cater to everyone's needs and help them achieve their goals. Your acknowledgement truly means a lot to us.
