Praises for Coaching

Magdalena Pouline

Asia Pacific Diversity & Inclusion Lead, AIG, Australia

Overall, I am high on happiness.

“I am so glad that I chose to work with Amy as my personal & professional coach over the past four months! Since I started our coaching engagement, my life has positively changed. Looking at where I was and where I am now, I feel very satisfied: I am more confident and in love with my career. I am a better mum. I am stronger and healthier. Overall, I am high on happiness. I am now very clear of what I want and what I don’t want in my life; more importantly, I could make things that deeply matter to me happen.

I really love Amy’s energy and attitude. She is naturally a great listener, patient, and curious. She also has natural talent of asking probing questions at the right time that helps me go deeper into my heart as well as my mind and know myself much better with self-ignited insights and solutions that otherwise would not have occurred to me. Working with Amy means I am positively challenged with my assumptions, and inspired to continuously stretch myself to achieve my goals. It also means I prove myself that I can do anything! We just had our completion session today and I already miss Amy. However, I know that she is always there for me and I could call upon her for any follow-up sessions.

If you want to transform your career and life, either it be relationship, parenting, or wellness, etc., hire Amy as your coach! You will surely get great return on investment.”

I have found the revelation within myself.

“I chose Amy as my professional and personal coach when I was at the crossroads of my career life with confusion and damaged confidence. Throughout the four-month journey with Amy, I transformed from the state of “grayness” to clarity, and feel confident again.

If I am to sum it up into a few words, they would be: I have found the revelation within myself. The whole engagement was like hiking into the woods where, with Amy besides, I waved the leaves and branches, got roadblocks removed, and came to great awareness of what I really want and what my identity is. What I enjoyed most throughout the journey is discovering about my inner world, unleashing the AHA moments, and being amazed about things that I have been able to make happen. I see another side of me that I have never seen by myself before: Amy is my mirror. She is the coach that I can really count on, will find again should needs arise, and highly recommend to those who truly want to live life to the fullest. Her vibrant energy and happy personality are unbeatable, which is among the answer to why Amy is a great coach.”

Amy offered fresh and non-biased perspectives which opened my mind to possibilities.

“I engaged Amy as my personal career coach when I had a big question in my career: what would be the right next step for me after 7 years working for the Danish Embassy in Vietnam, heading the Commercial Department. It is the dream job of many but after a while, I really wondered what the world out there had for me so I could unleash my potential and maximize my growth. So with her Career Happiness Infinity Coaching Program, Amy guided me through a well-structured process, helped me validate my journey up then, assisted me in organizing my brain and thoughts so I could have more direction with my long-term career vision.

While I encountered a number of naysayers along the way, Amy offered fresh and non-biased perspectives which opened my mind to possibilities. With her support, professional Human Resources suggestions, and with her ability to challenge my thinking, I was more confident in taking on a new career opportunity which I believe brings me one step closer to my vision. I also took a few actions that I never thought of on my own before in order to build up my overall presence and credibility in the market. Amy’s values do not stop there: she also helped me systemize and stretch my brain to create a comprehensive plan so I could best perform in my new job.

Overall, I am very happy with Amy’s Happiness Infinity Pivot Program, and really recommend anyone who dares to grow in their careers and who dares to step out of their comfort zones and maximize their potential by working with Amy. The values are worth beyond the investment. Full stop.”

Added with her very happy and enthusiastic personality, Amy is the portrait of a great coach.

“I began my journey with Amy with a lot of uncertainty about what I wanted to do next with my career. I had ideas, but didn’t know what action to take. Through her well-structured program, Amy encouraged me to start by looking within myself, and she helped me discover what my Happiness Infinity (HI) Zone was. With her great ability to ask probing questions and connect well with me, Amy helped me to think deeply about my vision, mission and goals, and even helped me to rewire my brain for positivity. I also appreciate her follow-up separately beyond the program as well as her guidance when I had career-related questions beyond our formal sessions. I now have more clarity on what makes a fulfilling career for me, and I feel inspired to continue working towards my vision! Added with her very happy and enthusiastic personality, Amy is the portrait of a great coach.”

Annie Kattapuram

Freelance Marketing Advisor for small businesses, USA

Working with Amy has been a great experience.

“I worked with Amy over a 6 month period on the Happiness Infinity Pivot Program. During this time, she coached me on developing my vision and describing my life purpose. We worked on defining my skills and strengths, and I was delighted to see how closely they aligned with my career thus far.

With a solid foundation laid out that focused on developing my personal interests and goals into a happier and purpose given version, we set about creating the blueprint for my next career steps. With Amy’s help I was able to set small goals that worked towards a long term goal.

Working with Amy has been a great experience. I met her when I was looking for a change in my life, and her ability to quickly understand my challenges and keep me motivated throughout the process has been fantastic. Her advise is invaluable, strategies are actionable and has sparked my drive to keep wanting and reaching for my best!”

Abby Tran

Journalist, Vietnam

It’s Amy’s positivity and persistence that keeps me going.

“I enrolled in Amy’s Happiness Infinity Pivot Program when I was at the crossroad of my career. When we started, I did not know where I should and can go after a number of years working for a newspaper. I was burned out and felt stuck. My goal was to “find my life” and with Amy’s well-structured guidance, I have not only gained a great clarity about what would be the right next step for me at that time while having a long-term vision defined, but also had a concrete action plan to get there. The time spent with her helped me understand more about myself, my strengths, my passion and what I can do.

If I had been on that “path finding” journey on my own, I would have given up. It’s Amy’s positivity and persistence that keeps me going. Her ability to ask the right questions assisted me in discovering the well-hidden thoughts in my brain and organize them so I could achieve my goal.

Besides all these, an interesting take-away for me is I am now used to the coaching questions and process and indeed started to use them for the other areas in my life. Therefore, I find it a really good investment and I would recommend anyone who wants to find happiness infinity in their career hire Amy!”

Olga Chechina

Co-Founder of Kidbilt, USA

This is manageable and I can do this.

“I feel really good. You are very personable and fluid from the heart. You are also highly organised and very well-structured and I need this. I really enjoyed you spent the time listening to my personal stories, connecting, and understanding who I am and what I want. Your way of organizing thoughts and action helps me know that “This is manageable and I can do this”. I was struggling with a clear vision and I now have a clear vision. I appreciate you sharing your stories as well so we could build trust and understand each other fast. You helped me overcome anxiety by flipping things around and I now can think positively.

Another breakthrough in Happiness Infinity Rise Program is I learned to give myself rewards after I finish my work as that motivates me (coach Amy: hardwiring happiness in practice :)). I also realized that articulating my goals does make things different. We worked on shaping my goals last week, and already, my kids help me with the chores without yelling. I also have a better sense of togetherness.”

Chief Risk Officer, ERGO Insurance, Singapore

Amy helped push my thinking and organize my ideas.

“I hired Amy as my personal coach when I was new in my job as the CRO of ERGO Insurance. I found the sessions with Amy in Happiness Infinity Rise Program extremely helpful. With her structured process and well-thought questions, Amy helped push my thinking and organize my ideas. I was able to create a peak performance strategy and action plan that I was very satisfied with, which helped me to be able to quickly gain the trust of the management team and advise them in strategic risk issues. Amy is highly skilled at and very passionate about what she does, so if you are moving into a new job, I would highly recommend Amy as your Career Happiness Coach.”

Joy Vu

Recruiting Coordinator, Silicon Valley Staffing Group, USA

The thing that I am impressed the most about Amy is the way she inspires and encourages me…. and the most important thing is that I got a job offer to work my dream job.

“It is quite a journey when I have met Amy and had her support throughout my job search. In our first meeting, question by question, she helped me understand what I really wanted and how I could do to get my goals. The way she asked questions is very special that made me think and think again until I was totally clear about my goals and actions. Then, Amy helped me edit my resume and conducted the mock interview for my upcoming interviews. Right after I updated my resume using Amy’s template and with her review, I got recruiters calling me the next day. Throughout hours of doing the mock interview, she prepared me for questions and gave me very detailed feedback for each of my answers.

The thing that I am impressed the most about Amy is the way she inspires and encourages me. She believes in me and shows me that I am talented and I can do best. All of her advice and comments are very helpful to me that improve my interview skills a lot.

Thanks to Amy’s mentorship, I become a more confident person and the most important thing is that I got a job offer to work my dream job. I am really thankful for what Amy has given me and how she inspires me.”

Aditi Mehra

Associate Director, Digital & Technology – CBRE Asia Pacific, Singapore

She is an awesome coach, and has a very well-structured program – which is exactly what I need. It’s the best investment I’ve done to date.

After 4th session: “Amy is such a blessing to me! She is an awesome coach, and has a very well-structured program – which is exactly what I need. We have just finished our 4th session out of the 12-session Happiness Infinity Pivot Program and I’m already seeing my life transform with lots of motivation. With Amy walking next to me as my sounding board with professional guidance and support, I am very positive in the journey ahead and in the results we could create together! It’s the best investment I’ve done to date and I would recommend Amy to all women, especially mothers, who want to not only thrive professionally but also uplevel their happiness baseline.”

After the program: “Amy is a great and a perfect coach – it’s her talent! I believe all successful women have a coach behind them as their sounding board, and I am so glad I have Amy. She is just right for me because she is very intelligent and her strengths compliment my areas of development: She gave me strategies and tools to tackle issues and work and in my personal life, and supports me with a lot of handholding to reinforce action and to get me back on track when I go off-track. 

I love her approach to coaching as it’s not just about work but a 360 of my life. Throughout the process, Amy helped me to organize my thoughts and simplify the thought process by putting the structure and tools, and giving me powerful words. What I also truly appreciate is Amy also helped me holistically, not just professionally but she deeply cares about my overall happiness (yes, her philosophy is “When you are happy, you will be successful” – this is a science-based fact and is now further proven with my case as well!). It was really therapeutic when Amy listened to me in our “clearing space” part of the sessions and put things in different perspectives. A highlight of the program is the Happiness Infinity Zone: discovering my unique talents & strengths, articulating them, being aware of them, highlighting them, and working with them. It is so powerful and important, and the job I have now has all of that. The Zone helped me make the right career decision that this is the right place for me instead of second-guessing. I also became more organized and more strategic in my approach, and put them into action, with a healthier and happier brain as the foundation for my further success and fulfilment. 

With Amy, my expectations from coaching has totally exceeded and it’s been a great partnership. And finally, Amy herself is very inspiring for me: She is a great coach, she has a happy family, she cooks, she travels, etc. – she walks the talk!”

Aiida Lee

Academic Mentor, Singapore

Coaching with Amy is a fantastic personal investment. I highly recommend her if you are committed to up-levelling your life and not just your career!

“Working with Amy on this intensive coaching program, Happiness Infinity Pivot, has been a rewarding journey. She is generous with her time and resources, and asks reflective questions that helped me gain clarity of my plans and reinforced a positive mindset by encouraging me to hardwire my chosen happiness habits.

Amy has exceeded my expectations! When I engaged her as my coach, I focused more on meeting my goals but she was able to become my objective friend. Her positive and constructive feedback gave me the momentum and motivation to move forward. I was able to articulate my self-limiting beliefs and doing so has given me the courage to inspire transformative positive changes within myself and for others though my work and relationships. In addition, as I am an achiever who enjoys reaching milestones, having Amy hold me accountable throughout the process is truly valuable. Coaching is powerful and being coached by the right person is very important. I hired Amy for her corporate and business experience as well as her values of genuine care and concern for others.

Coaching with Amy is a fantastic personal investment. I highly recommend her if you are committed to up-levelling your life and not just your career!”

Thu Hoang

Senior Shopper Marketing Manager, Harry’s Inc, USA

I continue my life journey with confidence and full clarity of vision. I wish all women can meet and train with Amy. She is a unicorn.

I moved to the US in 2015. It was quite a bumpy road in the first few years as I tried to navigate how I best fit here. What I thought was my strengths and passion became doubtful. It was very frustrating to doubt yourself (again) in your mid 30s. I decided to find a coach to help me out. But it wasn’t easy to find someone who can understand what I was going through and where I was coming from. I chose Amy after following her for some time on LinkedIn and on a platform where she shares about how she uses her brain-based coaching to the key areas of a mom’s life including parenting and relationship. Also, she is also a mom, independent and passionate woman. I know she will be my best coach. 

During 6 months working together in the Happiness Infinity Pivot Program, Amy wasn’t only a coach who constantly stretched my thinking and provided guidance but also a friend who I could go to for life advice anytime. When we started working together, I also started a new job, my baby was only 3 months old and then the pandemic hit. I felt I had so many troubles for a coach to solve. And guess what, she did it in an amazing way. From flexing her coaching program structure to multiple quick touch bases. 

What I find the most helpful in the program was the test series, the 2-hour Happiness Infinity Zone deep dive into my past experiences and the Happiness Infinity Magnet. They are the foundation to identify my core strengths, values and purpose in life. 

This program has exceeded my expectations. I now have a clearer vision of why I am here, what I am supposed to do and how to embrace a new day with full of energy. I continue my life journey with confidence and full clarity of vision. I wish all women can meet and train with Amy. She is a unicorn.

pulling the best out of us all

“Amy was an excellent leader of our Ellevate group. She was able to guide the conversation with such grace. Allowing everyone to speak and pulling the best out of us all. She offered us all so much of herself. You could tell she is someone who really cares about people and wants to help women achieve their true greatness. Thank you Amy.”

Erinn O’ Neil

Director of Talent & Growth at Aimient, USA

She always was so uplifting with her amazing happiness/mindful messages.

“Amy was an excellent leader of the Ellevate Squad and she always brought powerful comments to the group. It was a pleasure to meet with Amy for the past 12-weeks; and she always was so uplifting with her amazing happiness/mindful messages. Overall, a great partner and look forward to working with her in the future.”

You’ll see the result will somehow come out beautifully beyond your expectation and surprise yourself. 

“Months ago I randomly saw Amy’s post on LinkedIn and was directed to her website with curiosity. What was written on her website filled me with excitement and eagerness to explore and transform to be a better version of myself. At that time I had a kind of “not-bad” job, pretty well paid but couldn’t really figure out what’s missing that stopped me from feeling very happy and excited going to work everyday. I also had an uncertainty of what do to next in both short and long term. Though I love HR career, I realize HR itself has so many job families with other extended possibilities relevant to them as well and there’s a lot more complexity in choosing the right path. Lucky me, Amy used to work in HR before she became a full time coach, thus more than a coach, I also have a mentor by my side.

Through the well-structured Happiness Infinity Pivot Program, with Amy’s continuous support, my mind is opened up, my thinking shifts to the right direction and I gradually see things clearer. I’ve never be thankful enough to Amy for going an extra mile to help me with the extra happiness exercise when with her sensitivity, she found out I had some mental blockers that might negatively impact my career success and personal life. The best thing I achieve from the program is the built-in self-confidence and self-awareness (which many times I thought I lost it or didn’t have it or so much lacked it) that comes from understanding myself more deeply. Such thing not only brings happiness to career but all aspects of life, hence I think the program has a huge impact on a person as a whole. 

Again I never can thank Amy enough for what she has done to transform my thinking and my viewpoint of life that enables me to thrive with confidence. I am still myself but a much better version: more conscious, more positive, more courageous, more confident and self-aware. I would recommend anyone who goes through the program with Amy to take the homework exercises seriously and set aside super high quality “me-time” to complete it. You’ll see the result will somehow come out beautifully beyond your expectation and surprise yourself. “

Tears filled my eyes when I read the Happiness Infinity Zone report from Amy: I had never seen myself in such a full picture like before. 

Before I came to Amy, I was at a stage of personal and professional unhappiness. I lost connection with myself and in an attempt of searching for who I am, I chanced upon Amy whose story and mission were so inspiring that I decided to engage her. And we had been working together in her Career Happiness Infinity Program for six months.

My expectation in the beginning was to find someone who could guide me in that journey of fully discovering who I am. And Amy was far beyond a coach. She guided me with a highly structured brain-based process. Through her, I re-connected with myself and uncovered my Happiness Infinity (HI) Zone by clearly defining my life purposes, fully understanding my unique natural gifts, clarifying my values and passion. I still remember that morning tears filled my eyes when I read the Happiness Infinity Zone report from Amy: I had never seen myself in such a full picture like before. Moreover, Amy also taught me the brain training skills through various science-based tools so I can have a strong foundation which is a healthy and happy brain to reach for the possibilities. I am now stepping into my HI Zone and am bold enough to chase my dreams and unleash my full potential. My positive change radiated to the people around me including my husband, and indeed, he was so curious that he even asked to join me!

Amy is not only inspiring, committed, and joyful but she has a pure heart and intention to bring people to where they want to be; she does not coach for sake of coaching. There is no other more profitable investment than investing yourself with a top coach like Amy. It is the best investment that everyone should make to take charge of themselves and change their lives.

I believe that you can live the life you want if you dare to step out of your comfort zone and get support from a great coach like Amy! 

Being a mom, I feel very happy and sacred but I also find it is very challenging to balance between my family and my career. Because we only have one life to live and I have a dream to live my life to the fullest, I don’t want to compromise on both. I want to be in a career I love while having time for my family. And when I was not sure how to do that, I came across Amy and her coaching program. Then I made my decision to learn from her as she herself is a compelling example for the model that I aim for. 

I really appreciate that Amy supported me a lot during this the Happiness Infinity Pivot Program. What I love most about the program is that I can discover my unique story and understand my Why more clearly. Amy not only helped me have a systemic and strategic approach to my business but also shared with me lots of valuable ideas. Amy’s strength is her own inspiring story and again, because I love to learn from example, I chose her to be my coach.

Besides, during the program, she provided me with very intensive and practical mentorship, tools and materials. The most important thing I gained after this program is I could find my Happiness Infinity (HI) Zone so I have much more confidence in doing what I really want to do and I dare to take action instead of compromising for a well-paid job that I don’t have many things to learn and keep the status quo.

I believe that you can live the life you want if you dare to step out of your comfort zone and get support from a great coach like Amy! Her program is totally worth the investment. Trust your heart!

Working with Amy was truly eye opening and expanded my boundaries.

What I like about Amy is that she is a really attentive listener, but chimes in at the right moment, pushing to think hard, and take action and holds us responsible for what we commit. I was positively amazed by her breadth of knowledge. I could talk to Amy about anything from data to hosting gatherings. Amy has a well-structured program (Happiness Infinity Define Program) and it flows seamlessly from the beginning to finish. Each phase is well-thought out and brings out even the most deeply buried aspirations. Amy lead me through each phase with her high energy and happiness mindset. It was a wonderful journey with Amy, these past 3 months and I’m so glad I reached out to her.

I came across Amy through a Forbes article she had written on changing careers. I was captivated by her philosophy of happiness and reached out to her. Right from the start, it was a joy to work with Amy. She wears many hats and above all ” walks the talk”. We connected on many levels from being a mum, being South Asian to having the same Enneagram types.

I would definitely recommend Amy to anyone who is looking for a positive change in their life and career. With Amy, you are in good hands.

it brings you away from the crazy schedules and back to focus on what makes you happy

I was intrigued by and enjoyed the deep dive into my Happiness Infinity Zone. It helps me realize there are topics / career areas that interested me and were always at the back of my mind but they actually aren’t and I wouldn’t go ahead with. Before, my reaction to that was “I would be sad for the rest my life,” but the deep dive helps me to not feel guilty about letting go of that option as I chose to have the obligation about my family and children as well. Besides, there’s a shift in what’s important. I am proud of myself about not being available all the time which is very different from the norm in this industry.

I now clearly understand my strengths, and this could be applied to a number of careers and life. And I gained more confidence with this new career option because it comes from what I am good at and I am happy about. When we first started, it was something interesting and then I realized it also ties to my strengths. It’s validated by this work. 

When I signed up for the program, I told myself to commit to it. When I came back to work, it’s hard to make time. But I made it. I had to stand up for myself. I would absolutely recommend the program. I think it’s like exercise with trainer; it brings you away from the crazy schedules and back to focus on what makes you happy.

After 6 months working together, I found inner peace.

I came to Amy when there were many puzzles in my life and career. As a leader and a mom of young kids, I was craving for inner peace at that time. I was also wondering, after over 20 years in my current career, what else out there was waiting for me so I could not only future proof my career but also feel truly fulfilled by doing something that is deeply meaningful and aligns with my natural gifts. And I am so glad that I signed up for the Happiness Infinity Pivot Program with Amy. After 6 months working together, I found inner peace.

With restructuring being a norm these days, I feel secure because I could clearly see my Happiness Infinity (HI) Zone. I now know what my career looks like for the years to come, and at the same time, I’ve also used my time more wisely in the current job by identifying opportunities where I could fully utilize my unique gifts and living my purpose instead of fire fighting. Along the way, I have practiced a number of brain-based happiness techniques and habits taught by Amy that helped me to connect more effectively with my children and build a more solid relationship with my husband at home.

And guess what? A plant I love that seemed dead came alive. It’s not magic or the law of attraction; it had a lot to do with knowing how my brain works and training it for authentic positivity (If you have the chance to work with Amy, I am sure she can share more about this). Overall, I feel happier and more peaceful.

As a new business owner, I started my journey into entrepreneurship without much experience. I knew that I needed a mentor, and it was never a difficult decision to hire Amy. I have always connected with Amy personally (as a mom, a woman, and a business owner) and professionally (mission); she is someone I look up to. Her beliefs in what she does have set her apart from the rest. Some are taking the role as just a job but Amy believes in her role beyond just a mentor; she models it in her own business and life and guides from real life experiences, which  is different from those who teach you from the book. The program was packed with a lot of strategic actions and plans. And the amount of experience and knowledge I received from the program has helped me fast-track my own business.

As a mentor, Amy did not impose her ideas or advice. Instead, she encouraged me to draw my path which is aligned with my business mission by providing me with the right guidance while stretching me at times and holding me accountable. She always reminded me how bold I am and the strengths I have within me that will take me further ahead in my entrepreneurship journey. She constantly developed my growth along with the mentoring program.

Amy is such a joy to work with. Not only is she supportive and engaged, but she is also a thoughtful mentor. Her passion to drive the success of her mentee is condemnable. If you are seeking a brilliant and passionate mentor, I highly recommend Amy and her mentorship program.
