“Dr. Lead brings to the table advanced insight, wisdom and expertise. As a colleague, and recipient of her coaching, she has enabled me to bring to the surface thinking and solutions that were stuck deep in my mind and otherwise consumed by “day to day” life. Dr. Lead speaks with purpose and clarity, with each and every word counting towards navigating the client through their thoughts, which is the ultimate spirit of coaching. Her questions are pivotal, and she has found a way to translate this talent into an outstanding class modality. As an experienced coach and OD practitioner I would put both my personal and professional reputation behind this class.”

“Marianna is exceptional in teaching hypnosis. Her course changed my life. It not only changed the way I think and feel but it also changed the relationship I have with and to other people. It deepened my understanding of communication as well as empathy. Everything Marianna taught me will only help me become a better student of life as well as further my studies of becoming a Social Worker, Counselor, and Hypnotherapist. Thank You for teaching this valuable course. You are an amazing teacher and I feel blessed to be a part of the journey.”

“I had the pleasure of sharing the stage with Marianna at a speaking event as well as interviewing her for my radio show. In both venues, I was impressed by both her professional expertise and her warmth and kindness as a person. In our fast paced world, it is rare to meet people who genuinely embody both worlds – I liked her immediately! One of the techniques she shared on my show over 3 years ago is something that made such a profound difference to me and my listeners at the time that I STILL use it myself! Thank you Marianna!”
