Mark Casillas
"​Jewel delivered leadership development skills to the 2021 Leadership Fellows, which was then fully virtual. In her first 90-minute virtual session Jewel illustrated her command of the material and the Zoom room. She delivered a presentation and facilitated learning that was energetic, sincere, enthusiastic, and engaging. Jewel’s conversation-based style generated a high-level participation. That session was one of the most lively and interactive of the year’s monthly half-days.

Jewel returned to facilitate again this year, 2022, and I observed her working in a variety of styles. An especially powerful moment was during an interactive DiSC conversation. Everyone staffing the module later remarked on Jewel’s exceptional skill. In that moment, Jewel recognized a teachable moment, and took advantage of it. It showed me the heart skills of a great facilitator, the good judgment and compassion that contribute to her superb facilitation."

"​With Shoshanna's coaching, I significantly improved my personal productivity and self-awareness during the past two years. She always listens deeply, asks powerful questions, and offers guidance when asked. It's easy to work with her as she is knowledgeable and is always there to help. I'd recommend Shoshanna to any organization that is seeking a great coach and training consultant."
