Testimonials

"Todd coached me from being a frantic, ineffective problem solver to being brave, focused, and honestly committed to identifying and persuing my true dreams and desires. Being coached sped up my process times five and added valuable insight I never could have achieved or realized by myself. Todd is very talented coach and a wonderful person."
Lisa Carlton

"Todd is extremely intuitive and good at getting to the heart of an issue and reframing the problem. He helped me bring clarity and structure to my business so I could approach it with less struggle. Also, after a single session with my girlfriend and myself, she and I decided to move in together, which wasn't even on the table before!"

"Of all of the coaches I know, few have had what I was looking for: the capacity to think beyond the parameters of my box and see beyond my strategies; those which limit me from achieving what I say I want. Todd’s clear and supportive nature moved me toward even more accountability, efficiency, and power.

It’s one thing to have a coach that is smart. It is another to have a coach that is brilliant, creative, sensitive, and has the capacity to acknowledge each individual’s deep and rich essence. This man has the heart and soul to embrace his client’s humanity and the mind to be the thinking partner essential for empowering greatness. I highly recommend Todd as a coach and as a true friend."

"As a salesperson for some ten years with the Santa Clara Chamber of Commerce I was searching for some support in solving a personal image problem that was holding me back in my effectiveness in reaching my personal sales goals.

I am happy to report that after only a few weeks of coaching sessions with Todd I have already seen a marked improvement in my sales and was able to increase my sales results over 20% in our recent Membership Drive. My self-image is more positive, I am more confidant, and most of all I am at peace with who I am. Todd brings a marvelous array of resources and tools into play when coaching his clients. His coaching style is excellent. His manner is warm and caring."

"Todd is phenomenal both as a coach and as a human spirit creating in this lifetime. Thanks to Todd I actually got my business up and running despite myself. What seemed like real obstacles to me where in fact of my own making. Todd supported me in seeing through those defense mechanisms I was using to stay safe. Magically it would seem, they shifted and I allowed myself to step into the unknown. I was so busy thinking rather than being that I couldn't see, until Todd stepped in, how I was limiting myself both from a business perspective and a personal growth perspective. Without Todd, I would still be swimming around in my head, thinking about what I wanted to do rather than being the person I so wanted to be. Thank you, Todd!"

"In the eighteen months before I began working with Todd I left a ten-year computer career, ended a five-year relationship, completed a master of arts degree, gave up competitive sports, sold my home, and moved from the community I had lived in for eight years. Needless to say I needed tools and encouragement to overhaul my life.

Todd brought focus, clarity, discipline, wisdom, sensitivity, and humor to the coaching experience with his keen listening, astute perception, and exceptional communication skills. He helped me recognize less-than-powerful patterns, identify the truth of my spirit, and embrace my infinite creativity and possibilities. He gave me new insight into the importance of cultivating a relationship with my inner and outer worlds, and provided critical support for making changes with courage, integrity, and elegance. I highly recommend Todd's coaching for those who wish to make deep and lasting transformation in their lives."

"A real value that I’ve gotten from coaching is the ability to expand the box and see new possibilities in places where I was stuck. I have stepped into my life much more fully during the coaching process. I had to make some hard decisions along the way that I’d been avoiding; I laid some people off, I merged my company, and my marriage blew up. Through it all I learned to step into my life circumstances in powerful ways and saved my business and my marriage.

My relationships are much clearer and authentic now, which brings a wonderful richness to my life. I’m more connected to myself, and that has created spaciousness in my life in which distractions have naturally gone away. I have stopped drinking and have lost 30 pounds. I’ve found a rhythm and fearlessness in my life that wasn’t there before. Now, when I’m out of rhythm, I know it, and have the tools and skills to get back on track living the authentic, present, rich life that I’m committed to."

"Todd Phillips is a catalyst. With amazing insight and communication skills Todd Phillips guides you in finding your own way. In contrast to “advising” or “telling” Todd assists you in discovering what works best for YOU. This approach is so powerful as you walk away from a meeting with Todd with an intangible experience that is yours to keep and an experience that you can integrate into your life.

Todd has challenged me to become the best person I can be while at the same time he has helped me to feel more confident, inspired and composed than ever before. This combination of skills is not only rarely seen, but also empowering beyond belief. I would highly recommend Todd Phillips for anyone who is ready to take their life to the next level and experience success both on an internal and external level."

"I am now able to look at things more objectively after working with Todd. I am more conscious of my part in how I make things happen in my life as well as taking responsibility for not letting things evolve in an unconscious way.

I first started coaching with Todd when I was near a breakthrough but feeling like I couldn't do what it was I wanted to do out of fear. Through hearing Todd's questions, getting support, and listening to myself, I went after and created what I was wanting. As I get out of my own way and let things happen it is exciting to realize my dreams! When challenges came up for me in my marriage of 32 years, Todd helped me look at my part in what had not been working and to make the changes to create something new. Through all these changes, the coaching process has brought more joy to my life."

"My coaching with Todd has been truly enlightening and profound! I discovered in our work together many ways to shift perspective, explore new ideas, and learned to communicate in ways that have impacted my life greatly. It’s been an experience of learning, growing, and becoming more of who I truly am. At first I really had no idea what a life coach could do for me. I was wary. I knew I needed a jump-start into living life more fully (the Oprah magazines just weren't cutting it) but I didn't know how to put the key in the engine.

Todd helped me find the key and get driving! Along our journey together I had many breakthroughs, and not just in my career area, but in my personal relationships as well. Todd is incredibly compassionate, funny, and rooting for you in a way that no one else can. He is a masterful listener, guide, and intuit that helped me propel myself forward. Todd brings such a unique sense of lightness, laughter, wit, and wink-at-the-Universe that you can't help but feel a little more connected to the cosmos after a session. His willingness to be open, learn, and be on the same level as me made me feel a great sense of personal empowerment, and that was one of the best gifts of our coaching overall. Todd is a life coach that is uniquely present, open to Spirit, and committed to bringing the best, highest version of you to come out and play!"
