Drained to Present
Overload to Clarity
Flustered to Calm
Breakthroughs In Real Time…
Mark McCooey, CEO and Director for SEI Industries Ltd, Vancouver, BC
THE CHALLENGE:
Working with Izzy is not the same as working with other professional development coaches… her sessions produce results in “real-time” and are not theoretical like other coaches, which often leaves the client scrambling for “post-session” implementation.
THE APPROACH:
In her sessions, Izzy is able to create, with the client, the actual experience of “working from the zone.” In this shared experience, I personally received the real-time benefit of actively solving problems from that higher “zone” of perception and the underlying issues were seen with magnificent perspective.
THE RESULT:
Once my brain got used to working “from the zone,” it never really went back to the old way of functioning. Izzy also never leaves a session without testing for results and confirming those results with the client… this means “real-time” and “real-world” results.
…I KEEP PROGRESSING ON A SOLID FOOTING.
I suffered from brain overload…
Ian Meier, Executive Director, BC Wildlife Service
The Challenge:
I approached Isabelle because I was stressed, frustrated and suffered from brain overload.
The Approach:
She helped me to strengthen my leadership skills. The result was me being able to clearly articulate guidance to staff and give executive confidence in my organization during emergency situations. One thing I liked was her ability to train me to have a deeper understanding of myself and others.
The Result:
I found that the training has also given me increased clarity, and I am actively becoming more impactful with a higher level of mental energy. I would recommend Isabelle for people who want to deal well in conflict situations, clearly articulate under pressure, and manage stress effectively.
…now I have increased clarity
Stress Was Affecting MY HEALTH…
Graham Turner, President, Snappy Kraken
The Challenge:
Stress was affecting my personal interactions, emotions, motivation, and self-worth. I had unhappiness from being confused about why I was working hard to accomplish things that didn’t make me feel tangibly better. It affected my health, personal interactions, emotions, motivation, and self-worth.
The Approach:
This isn’t a place to just talk about problems without finding tangible ways to navigate them. Reflection and problem-solving are challenging and strenuous, but you feel better coming out the other side. Isabelle’s Protocol Is a WORKOUT FOR YOUR BRAIN.
The Result:
I now have a heightened ability to proactively understand and identify my personal cycles, to get out of falling into old patterns and routines and break out of them. I have improved my productivity and motivation…
…AND THE ABILITY TO DEAL WITH STRESS.
I’VE ACCOMPLISHED MANY GREAT THINGS IN MY LIFE, BUT HAVE ALWAYS FELT A SENSE OF “I’M NEVER GOOD ENOUGH AND STILL NEED TO PROVE MY WORTH”…
Don Moores, Former President, Kamloops Blazers
The Challenge:
Like a duck in the water… I was calm on top and paddling like crazy below. I slept poorly, was very irritable, and felt sorry for myself. I had major anger and anxiety over anything that would be coming up. The feeling of… is this it?!
The Approach:
I had a Breakthrough Day with Isabelle, who helped me get to “NOW” quickly and easily and trust my Intuitive Self.
The Result:
I have never been more in the present than I am right now. What a beautiful feeling. I have considerably less anxiety, and when I feel it coming on, I focus on how to get back into the now… it’s an amazing feeling. You have given me the gift of understanding how to live in the NOW and that my intuitive self is strong, alive, and well, and I can count on it every time.
…I HAVE CONSIDERABLY LESS ANXIETY! IT’S AN AMAZING FEELING!
Struggling with the ups and downs…
Rob Wallis, Partner and Senior Advisor, VELA Wealth
The Challenge:
Managing and delivering on the expectations I had placed on myself for family, business, health, social and emotional were a challenge. I was stressed all of the time, burned out, impatient, not present, irritable, inauthentic, had low energy, slept poorly, and made poor dietary choices. I was surviving not thriving, and everything was a chore – I knew that a shift was needed.
The Approach:
The first conversation I had with Izzy was genuine, vulnerable and it opened a door that I wanted to walk through and explore transformation. Finding limiting root causes, accessing healing, and moving on is freeing and exciting. I want this for everyone.
The Result:
I am now present, calm, exercising more, taking on more, drinking less, eating better, enjoying and designing routines, sleeping better, and my business and client work is going so well… it’s exciting! I am in love with communicating and can create the future… live it… and be present for the journey.
…now I can be present for the journey
I struggled to stay focused…

I wanted to be the best father and business partner that I could be. I was drained, exhausted, and couldn’t see the forest through the trees. I recognized I needed help.
The Approach:
With Izzy, we addressed the root causes of my mental challenges.
The Result:
I have now increased my ability to prioritize, deal with worry and stress, and maintain focus and energy. Costs are being reduced because I’m more efficient and I have doubled my productivity. Knowledge equals power. My life has been turned around.

I had a blockage mindset…

A blockage mindset which was affecting my relationship with my coach and my training.
The Approach:
Izzy has transformed me into a powerful, grounded and balanced competitor.

Things were slipping through the cracks…
Gord Bamford, Global Country Artist of the Year (CMA)
The Challenge:
I couldn’t get work off my mind. I was lacking in sleep. Too many things were slipping between the cracks. I was not efficient. I needed to figure out better time management between work and family life and what my priorities should be.
The Approach:
Izzy was great to work with and provided a bigger picture. She helped me deal with a better work/life schedule, and I learned how to deal with my Son and his limitations and abilities to succeed too – I needed to be a better father and take some pressures off him.
The Result:
Since working with Izzy, everything has been positive; my time management, my listening skills, and I have a more calm approach from day to day. In my line of work, in these trying times, I have found ways to succeed and am doing stuff a bit more out of the box.
…everything has been positive
In the NHL, my confidence was challenged many times…
Guy Charron, Montreal Canadiens, Detroit Red Wings, Washington Capitals, Calgary Flames
The Challenge:
I brought Izzy in to increase the performance of the Hockey Team and help them to deal with adversity. She also ended up helping me! When I was a young player, I played sports for fun. My confidence came with success. In the NHL, my confidence was challenged many times.
The Approach:
Even at this late stage of my career, she was helping me to understand better my judgements, my skills, and my abilities.
The Result:
My confidence grew, and I became a better coach.
…my confidence grew
PERFORMANCE UNDER PRESSURE…
Elias Ortner, Senior Lead Guide and Assistant Operations Manager, Mike Wiegele Helicopter Skiing
The Challenge:
We needed to find an expert to deliver an effective Performance Under Pressure Keynote to help our pilots and guides.
The Approach:
We reached out to a corporate client of ours, and we received powerful testimonials about Isabelle. We found in her an expert with an evidenced track record of success.
The Result:
Isabelle provided an excellent and well-researched presentation. She took the time to speak to individuals/audience members about their needs before the presentation to make it specific to their wants and concerns. Isabelle was very much engaged with the group. Our helicopter pilots and guides liked the presentation a lot. The presentation left them with a real sense of direction and purpose.
… I recommend her services to others
I was TERRIBLE WITH DELEGATION…
Steve Pearce, Senior Manager of Commercial Sales, SeaFirst Insurance Brokerage
The Challenge:
One of my greatest challenges was the anxiety of saying no. I had become a person that I did not want or need to be for work and my family. I was underproductive, a procrastinator, irritable, exhausted, a pleaser, frustrated, terrible delegator and did not trust others, which caused stress and a lack of confidence and focus – I did not trust myself to give good direction and the worse part of this was that I did not know any of the above was happening or did not want to admit.
The Approach:
I was offered the opportunity, through my employer, to work with Isabelle, someone who was keenly interested in results more than the sale of having a new client. She helped me expose myself and be able to see who I really am and the results of feeling relieved and focused. I no longer lack confidence in my abilities or have a hard time asking for the sale, service, support, and ultimately help.
The Result:
I have an even better relationship and communication line with my wife too. I have trust, focus, confidence, am a more tactical and insightful quicker thinker, and my fuse is way longer now and it is a little pop versus a megaton bomb going off. I have become a key team member, and have grown my personal book of business. I am recognized as a Leadership Influencer and am more focussed, resilient, and confident in any situation. I now trust in myself.
…now I can lead with CONFIDENCE
