What women are experiencing in our work together

Rachel HawesWorking with Nona was like a light bulb suddenly being turned on in my head.  Everything that had been floating around inside there was illuminated and I could finally separate the wheat from the chaff.  Nona used the principles of yoga to help me realize that my old beliefs about money weren’t serving me, my business or my clients and to write new beliefs.  Once I realized it wasn’t about the money, everything changed. After studying yoga for most of my adult life, bringing those principles into managing my business and my bank account has left me with a full appointment book and well on the way to a clear credit card.  Bless you Nona!

-Rachel Hawes – Massage and Movement Therapist (http://massage-movement.co.uk)
When I started working with Nona, I had a very general business focus, scattered energy and systems that neither supported nor served me. With Nona’s inspired and creative leadership I honed my specific coaching niche, focused my energy and under Nona’s direct guidance created systems, strategies and programs that catapulted me into the business I had long envisioned. Nona’s ability to perfectly combine empathetic understanding, inspired creativity and progressive action steps, helped me think bigger and grow professionally all while keeping me grounded and supported, yogini style!
-Jodi Seery, Relationship Coach

“My business – and my LIFE – have been transformed!! Nona has helped me on my journey as a newbie businesswoman so much that I’m not sure where to begin. When I first started with Nona, I didn’t really know what to do to grow my practice – I just knew I needed to do something. After our first session, I had plans. BIG plans! Now, five months later, my vision of my practice has grown beyond what I ever imagined. Nona has provided me with the structure, clarity, and support to grow my business in a way that has felt authentic and exciting. And when resistance, anxiety, or fear have come up from time to time, Nona has had an amazing way of helping me get to core of those issues and gain insight that has been instrumental in my success. Thank you, Nona – I feel incredibly lucky to have found you!!!”

-Mandy Corwin, Naturopathic Doctor

I had been struggling to get my coaching practice off the ground for the two years. I had taken business building classes, a branding class, a class on finding your niche, etc., but I was still floundering, feeling fundamentally unclear about how to define myself, my biz, my gifts, and my market. Working with Nona has been an incredible process; more helpful than words can adequately express. Nona has an amazing gift for helping people see themselves, their abilities, and their purpose with fresh eyes and insight. It is only now, with Nona’s guidance, that I am finally able to articulate clearly what I’m all about and what I have to offer. At last I have the springboard to go out into the world with CLARITY and CONFIDENCE. Working with Nona is a life changing experience. She is generous of spirit, funny, authentic, and kind – as well as being a stellar coach and business healer. I feel truly, deeply blessed to be working with her.

-Kate O’Neill, Life Coach

“Nona Jordan rocks my world! She is the best thing that happened to my business. I never believed I could actually realize the ease and grace I longed for in my business.

With Nona’s help I have.

I went to Nona last winter for some help with my website and some systems to help my growing practice stay in control. I was having trouble just getting those details done and frankly didn’t know where to even begin with many of them. Every time we spoke I went away delighted – and clear. I cannot tell you what a relief this was and how much lighter I felt.

Nona totally got me, my business and what I did. I feel like she totally has my back. Working with Nona will be the best investment you can make in yourself and your business.”
-Melani Marx, Master Energy Healer

When I came to Nona I was a hot mess of vague ideas about what I envisioned for my coaching practice.  Nona helped me get clear about exactly what I want and who I want to serve.  She picked up on the tiniest things I mentioned and was able to draw out my deepest desires around the business I want to create.  She encouraged me, celebrated me, and called me on my resistance.  She answered every question (often over and over), every email, and every 911.  I came out of my time with Nona with a beautiful website that reflects me perfectly, and a very clear vision of what I want to create for my clients and my coaching practice.  In other words, I got much more than I ever expected.

-Audrey Wilson, Turn on Your Life Light

I’ve been buzzing with focused enthusiasm ever since my first interview with Nona! A keen listener, she captured the essence of who I am striving to be in the yoga business context and provided some solid, practical guidance as to the steps I need to take towards realising this dream. I love her exceptional professionalism — she responds to e-mails and follow-ups almost immediately. Most importantly however she’s helped me to move beyond my self imposed fears and limitations and prompted me into serious action — and all of this after just one session. For anyone who has any inkling of wanting to pursue a business in the yoga and wellness field, make Nona your first port of call.

-Nadine McNeil, The Universal Empress

After my invigorating session with Nona, I had to write her and find out what her Kolbe and Myers Briggs Type were.  How cool— she has the soul of an NF to understand my mystical project, but the J and follow-through to get things done.  She put a strategic plan together for one of my thrilling dreams that felt like a miracle— she totally ‘got’ the heart of what I was talking about (in circles) about and put it in linear, strategic steps for me to follow.  Amaaaaazing….  She’s right!  I get things done when I work with her.  I like it.  Oh, I like it a lot.

-Anna Kunnecke, Coach & Creator of the Birth Story Project

I hired Nona to help me through the launch of my coaching practice and its has truly been a great experience. Nona has the ability to cut through the minutia and pinpoint patterns of behavior that have sabotaged my ability to do great work. When I think of Nona, I think of Warrior pose with her strength, balance and grounding. She’s infused it within me when I get sidetracked or overwhelmed. I’m so glad I signed up to work with her because I feel more focused, confident and empowered. Thank you Nona!!!

-Lisa Alessi, Founder of the Renaissance Learner

From the moment I met Nona on Skype, I knew I was in the right hands. She took the time to get to know me and my business and seemed to get me right away. Almost instantly, she was able to help me plow through some of the blocks I was facing. Her thought provoking questions and creative approach allowed me to dig around in my stuff to find the answers I was looking for. Within days of working with her, I was completely clear on my message for the world and with her support, was able to begin taking the steps necessary to move forward in my business. She is fabulous and with her coaching, I know that I will live the intentions I have set for my business.

Christie Inge, Intuitive Eating Coach

Nona, I can’t tell you what a gem you have been. It has been such a blessing to have you in my yoga business as a support person, creative thinker, and friend. Being a yogini, it is nice to be supported by a business yogini! You are invaluable!

-Stacey Shanks, Yoga Instructor and creator of Yoga in a Bag

Nona Jordan is OMazing! Her practical, deliberate and sensitive approach brings a delightful balance to her work. She walked me step by step through my business and website planning that had me overwhelmed for YEARS. She helped me to move from dreamy ideas to more clarity and focus on building my business. She straightened me out in pure Yogini style. I am forever grateful!

-Kristen Tolbert, Kristen Tolbert Coaching

I want to say thank you both to you Nona, and to my sister who referred me to you.  I am embarking on a new entrepreneurial project – leaving a very emotionally exhausting corporate environment and going into business with an ex-colleague who I’ve known for more than ten years.  My goals for this new venture are to make a good living, to do it with integrity towards my clients, and also to do it in a way that doesn’t sap all the energy that I need for my non-work important people – my kids, my husband, my self.  I want to build into my new situation time to be mindful, and time to strengthen my body, time to make sure that I am living the life that I want to live — to not give into either the franticness, or the “lazy” solution of working too much.

Nona, you were exactly the right person and our time together has helped me so much.  I’ve told a couple of people that it feels like an angel dropped into my life at exactly the right time! I have clear intentions about both my work and my non-work, and I have strategies for fulfilling those intentions, including yoga and meditation which are areas I have been wanting to have a deeper commitment to.  I have established a practice that I feel good about, I see that it doesn’t take much time OUT of my day to stick with my intentions and in fact it gives me much more energy and focus to get things done.  I embrace the discipline, and importantly, you helped me recognize that all those things that I thought I “should” do were very fundamentally things that I WANT to do and that subtle shift has made a huge difference.

I still have a long way to go, to building my practice, to keeping on track at home as well as in my business, but I feel like the whole new venture – this whole new chapter in my life because that is exactly what I intend it to be – got off to a stronger start because we were working together.  Thanks so much for the support and for helping me access more of my inner resources to succeed in my business, on the mat, at home, and in my head!

-Jill Hodges, Hedge Fund Marketer

“I was introduced to Nona at a time when I really needed a boost of confidence and clarity of direction. She provided both in a way that was both comprehensive and compassionate…. which left me feeling that she was professional AND human. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone who needs an objective, yet sympathetic eye; I got lots of concrete advice on my website and marketing myself with integrity, but also on how to proceed confidently with balancing my family life with my business prospects. I am sure I will continue to consult her whenever I hit a roadblock. Well worth getting up early in Indonesia to talk to you!  Thanks Nona.”
-Renee Martyna, Satori Worldwide

In a complete meltdown when I hired Nona, I was afraid that I was making some terrible mistakes in my business. Nona is so calm and clear. She made a safe space for me to walk right through my fears into the most exciting chapter of my business yet. I couldn’t wait to book more sessions because now I know she’ll be a valuable member of my team to GET STUFF DONE! Nona is Da Bomb.

-Laurie Foley, Branding From the Inside Out

 

“Nona Jordan is a walking haven for busy women, especially those juggling the demands of caring for family and maintaining a career or business.  As an entrepreneur and yoga instructor, she possesses both mental toughness and wonderful flexibility.  Both come through in her coaching.  If you need innovative strategies designed to make a complex life not just manageable, but truly enjoyable, Nona is the coach for you.”

Dr. Martha Beck

I’ve read that people will forget what you said and forget what you did but they will never forget the way you made them feel.  Working with Nona on my website setup and business direction was such a phenomenal experience and I will never forget how she made me feel.  It’s hard to describe in words, but I felt completely supported, both by emails before and after and also in person during the session where I was guided, in the most gently challenging, professional, safe and inspired way, and I even had fun and laughed out loud – not something that usually happens to me when dealing with techy stuff!!  I learned so much and immediately wanted to book more time with Nona.  Nona is a wise, intuitive, deeply knowledgeable resource, and so approachable with it, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her, in fact I’m trying to control myself from getting out the ladder and shouting from the rooftop – “Hire Nona – she’s awesome!”.
-Helen Samson Mullen, Helen Samson Mullen Life Design
If it wasn’t for Nona, I would still be scratching my head wondering what to do next.  I needed to take my business idea to the next level but I wasn’t quite sure how to get there.  Nona and I had a few sessions together and it was like someone turned on the lights for me.  She very patiently walked me through the ins & outs of putting a website together and gave me some great ideas.  She is patient, inspiring and motivating.  By asking me some simple but poignant questions (like “what are you afraid of”), Nona made me think about certain fears and doubts that were holding me back.  Now I have no excuses and I’m ready to launch my business – thanks to Nona!
–Janel Dupuis, Virtual Solutions
Working with Nona was very clarifying for me.  She helped me prioritize and goal-set, and she has the business and life experience to help solo-business owners like me figure out the best next steps to move forward.  But, even more important, she listened deeply and helped me reconnect to my passions, the reasons why I am in business in the first place, and how I can use that knowledge to promote what I do without feeling “salesy.”
-Lynn Hess

“Nona, I wanted to say thank you, thank you, thank you for your wisdom!  The tools you have given me to use are really helpful and they are definitely working to help me be more of the person I want to be.”

-S.H. Rome, Italy

“Nona, our session was wonderful! Thank you for sharing your experience, compassion, and innate understanding to give me some much needed guidance. You are truly a gift.”

—Lauren M., Monak Virtual Assisting

“Nona’s wisdom and insight are helping me get to know and appreciate myself. Through our work together I am learning to balance work and play and to take excellent care of myself. Working with her is a real gift.”
