Binu Dhindsa, Empowerment Coach

Carolyn has taught me so much about bettering my relationships with my spouse and my children to a level I never ever imagined...dream like; she helped me get unstuck with many blocks I didn't even realize I had yet they would show up as overwhelm and stress in my life and in my body. One step at a time, one coaching session at a time, she helped me and supported me through so many aspects of life. Over the most recent years, the spiritual coaching has helped me beyond measure and beyond words. I lost my Mom 30 years ago and even though I did a lot of healing on my own, having the spiritual understanding of losing a loved one has helped at that next level.

Allie Ide, Soul Coach

"When I began working with Carolyn over a year ago, her open mind and heart were clear from the start. She is able to communicate and reflect with you without any veil or filter; she needs calculate nothing or “try” to make you see things in a different way - without judgment and with utter clarity and “correctness”, Carolyn guides you to exactly what you need - like a flower opening for bloom - she meets you where you are and trusts that you are ready. The work between us - both inner and outer world work (as both weave and flow together in a single tapestry) has been the direct catalyst for my ability to show up in this world in the ways that God intended. There has been no price suitable enough to place on the liberation, trust and authenticity I experience. I have been born twice - one in the flesh, the other the spirit - and Carolyn came into my life at the *exact* right time when I was ready for this next stepping stone in the journey to balance on. Carolyn is gifted, connected, pure and genuine. Her knowledge and experience are tremendous. She is curious and relentless in her service digging deep for answers. There is no rabbit hole she is unwilling to go down to provide the most expansive guidance and support that she can for you, the client - and the world beyond. There is no doubt Carolyn is destined for huge impact in the most loving way in this world. The opportunity to work with her will be pivotal to your connection to a great source and a totally free way of experiencing this earth life!"

Sometimes we just need someone to listen. To actually hear what we are saying with no judgement, no preconceived notions, no obstructions. That's Carolyn. She has many, many skills but her ability to listen to me and hear what I was saying was so important. She also has this great ability to provide solutions and communicate them in a very effective way. I truly respect Carolyn and I feel I have found a friend for life.

Before working with Carolyn, I struggled to express how I felt without causing conflict. My delivery often led to negative pushback, making it difficult to lead effectively. Through our coaching, I had a breakthrough—I realized I could address difficult topics without creating resentment. Instead of holding onto agitation and hoping it would disappear, I recognized I was being too passive, and wasn’t taking proactive action. I learned how to approach and resolve situations with clarity. The biggest shift was recognizing what I could and couldn’t control and focusing on what truly mattered. Carolyn has a rare ability to see things as they are and communicate in a way that brings self-awareness without judgment. Most of us can’t see our own blind spots, but she helped me recognize patterns of self-sabotage and shift them. Now, rather than withdrawing when something triggers me, I pause, regain clarity, and address it at the right time. I’ve become more confident in my perspective being true and accurate while also seeing how my own behavior impacts others—and how changing my approach can create a positive ripple effect. If you're an executive struggling with communication and leadership at home or work, I highly recommend working with Carolyn.

When I started working with Carolyn, I was going through a very unworkable time in my life, going through many transitions. I chose Carolyn because I wanted a nurturing person partnering with me to get through it, and I am now mostly through all of it and I am so grateful for Carolyn’s support. I set 3 top goals in working with Carolyn. In just 4 months of working together, 2 of them have happened and the third has made great progress. First, I found an amazing assistant only a couple weeks after hiring Carolyn after being stuck for months and I am well on my way to having my dream team. Second, I’m feeling much more balanced in life having re-ignited my fitness goals, my relationship with my wife has improved, my relationship with my daughter has improved, and I’ve added back personal time such as time golfing and with friends. Third, my business results are now starting to pick up, though not yet to the experience of flow I am still working towards. I also had a bonus goal of opening my spiritual growth to the next level, which definitely has happened. Carolyn is the most dedicated coach I’ve ever worked with, always sharing resources and expertise directly relating to what I am dealing with. She has very much found her calling, and I highly recommend her.

Mary Chan, Principal, Edward Jones

It feels like a big sacrifice of time, but it was time well spent to get me to the next level --emotionally as well as mentally. I was encouraged to confront my laissez-faire disposition to one of BEING the change to effect the desired change. I like the fact that this is not therapy, nor is it a rah-rah session. It is work towards a good endpoint, my endpoint--no one else's. I don't know how Carolyn can be so in tuned to the many facets of human behaviour, thought and emotions!

Working with Carolyn for three months has been a wonderful experience. Her guidance helped me foster a deeper and more compassionate connection with my inner self. I am now able to connect with myself to a greater degree and find that inner peace now regardless of what is happening in my life. Carolyn’s coaching sessions were thoughtfully structured, providing a safe space for exploration and growth. Her experience and wisdom have helped me embrace my spiritual path with more clarity and confidence. She had so many great tidbits of wisdom that came across in our sessions and I am grateful for the positive impact she has had on my life. I recommend her coaching to anyone seeking spiritual and personal growth.

Megan Arthurs, CEO, H:OM Organizing

Carolyn has been my soul and life mentor for three years and it has transformed my life in ways I cannot even explain. Little miracles, huge achievements, guidance on tough conversations, relationships, and more. Carolyn is so gifted at showing me different lenses to view life in, how to live judgment free, how to better understand myself, and how to connect and co-create with the universe. I believe everyone needs and deserves life mentoring – we have all been through ‘things’ and these ‘things’ need to be worked on so they don’t fester within us. Carolyn helps me stay accountable with my business and personal pursuits and continues to guide me in living a really beautiful life.

Steve Choi, MD

  Coaching with Carolyn has released a lot of stress, and anger I was feeling I didn't realize had built up over the years. She got me to focus on my priorities around family, friends, and my overall health, and well being. I gained some critical insights around my own spirituality, which has given me a new inner peace, and improved the relationships I have with the people in my life especially within my family, patients, and colleagues.

Grete Boyd, Adviser, Sun Life Financial

Meeting Carolyn and coaching with her have been one of the greatest things that happened to me. I took every word she said very seriously. She motivated me to improve in many aspects of my life. She introduced me to the Secret and now I am a much happier person - I look at things differently and appreciate everything and everybody I have in my life. Carolyn showed me the way to be able to say what I can say now: I am VERY HAPPY to be who I am!

Rajiv Parti, MD, Author: Dying to Wake Up

Carolyn is a powerful, transformative and insightful coach. How much my life has changed...I am still trying to digest it emotionally and spiritually. I had huge shifts, and deep realizations.

A. Ross, University Professor

Carolyn has been an incredible source of resourcefulness and positivity through my journey with self-discovery, accountability and spirituality. We started with hypnosis and covered the importance of staying in the high vibrations of love, joy and trust. Fear, skepticism, guilt, resentment, control still reside with me from time to time, but now I pay attention to those feelings and my mantra: “I have a choice. I have been given free will.” I can choose my own thoughts over thoughts that aren’t mine. Noticing this inner voice was a breakthrough for me. Carolyn helped me with rephrasing my words when tricky situations came up with a family member. She taught me that 1) taking care of my needs and well-being is not selfish 2) I can not change other people to be kinder or more understanding 3) implementing boundaries is not only crucial but safe and compassionate. Carolyn’s guidance into the spiritual world is fascinating, vast and stunning. It was eye opening and means so much to me, knowing, that a fragment of the Divine is within me and everybody else. Thank you Carolyn, your guiding light, passion, wisdom and insightfulness has brought me so much inner peace and confidence.

When we decided to contact a life coach my wife and I came to the conclusion that we needed a better understanding of our relationship. We contacted Mrs. Hidalgo and the experience was far more inspiring than we anticipated. Her spiritual approach to obtaining relevant information about us and our happiness allowed us to explore and express ourselves more deeply. She is quite enthusiastic, optimistic and honest in her thoughts and opinions. Her approach was really insightful to us both. We are truely grateful for the group conversations, and are looking forward to working with the materials she provided us. We would strongly recommend Carolyn for guidance in your marriage.

I have worked with people for over 20 years of my life. Different coaches, life coaches, psychologists, psychotherapists, couple’s therapists…on top of all the books I’ve read! I believe I needed all of the above, however working with Carolyn I feel like I’ve had the greatest growth in the shortest period of time. I love that I feel completely myself and it’s a totally judgment free zone! I also love that I can share everything as I feel it, and I think this is crucial. The ability to SEE another way. To be honest, I think this is necessary. With other therapists or coaches, you have to retain the info until you next speak…but if I’m writing to you in the moment — this is real for me. And your quick responses not only support me in the way that I need in that moment, they give me the tools to transform.

Carolyn has been such a vital piece of my soul’s growth. Deciding to work with her has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. In my coaching sessions she has guided me through processing the emotions of grief, anxiety, panic attacks, and signs and synchronicities. Her calming and nurturing presence allowed me to feel safe moving through the deep moments of frustration, confusion and despair, and she led me out to a place of clarity and healing. I always leave having a higher perspective on my experiences and valuable lessons that I would not have gotten on my own. It is evident in the way Carolyn makes you feel so loved and supported, that she truly wants people to find that divine unique piece in themselves and for them to fully embody it. I would not hesitate to work with her again or recommend her coaching to any of my family or friends.

Deidre Thomas

I was pretty resistant to embracing my spiritual side but felt I invested in my physical well being so why not my mental well being. I don’t see spirituality as God but the peace and connectiveness I feel in nature, with animals and when I’m being creative. Carolyn helped me approach spirituality on my own terms, opened up some new thinking and got me to challenge myself that I had fallen into a pattern of self neglect. She gave me strategies and readings to break the pattern and reinvest in myself.
