“I will never forget the personal journey that Edvards held me through as his coaching client. I still look back on the learning, self-awareness, and courage that Edvards facilitated in me, all of which continue to sustain and support me in both foundational and generative ways. As a coach, Edvards was an incredibly careful and committed listener who never showed judgement, but rather, embodied deep curiosity in getting to know me and challenging me to expand my horizons. In our sessions, he was generous in the way he attended to the quality of our relationship and rapport which made it much easier to trust him. He exercised patience, flexibility, and calmness which nourished me amidst the chaos of my very busy work life. What stands out to me is how meeting with Edvards felt like a breath of fresh air from beginning to end. I appreciate his genuineness and authenticity, never pretending to understand something about me that he didn’t, and never flinching or shying away from the intensity of the things I was seeking coaching on. I am forever grateful to Edvards for the love and care he clearly invests in his coaching practice. Not only did I get to experience him in what he is clearly called to do, but I am still reaping the benefits of his work in living the life I want to live to this day.”
