Diana Fletcher

A video testimonial from Barb Wade, Life Coach:

From March 12th, 2010 Virtual Retreat I was not able to attend the retreat live because my son was home sick.  I really enjoyed opening my box of goodies.  I smiled and giggled the entire time, while making sure no one else in the room put his grubby little hands on my new gifts!  I wasn’t able to get to the retreat all at one time. As the days went by, it slipped from the top of my list of things to do (like laundry and dishes).  I knew I had the 15-min coaching session scheduled and that is what made me finish.                                                                                                                    I didn’t realize how long it had been since I had written from the heart.  The journal entries started slowly, but the starters helped move me along.  I was amazed at how many things I am happy and grateful for.  I was a little nervous about the coaching session, but Diana put me at ease in no time at all.  She told me things that I know intellectually, but need to hear from time to time (being a mom at home is a full time plus job).  She gave me an ACTION item and I promptly ‘acted’.  Now I plan to give myself select action items to keep my stress level down but productivity up. Thank you so much, LF, New Jersey

Private Coaching Clients:

The months that I spent working with Diana were some of the most transformative and productive of my life! I signed up for coaching as I approached my 40th birthday and realized that my life up to that point was not what I wanted it to be. I was determined to make some changes and start living the life that I wanted to live. Diana helped me do that. She helped me identify what was truly important to me and find a career/ life path that was consistent with who I really am. I will be forever grateful for the encouragement and insight that she has provided. Thank you, Diana!

“Diana helped me not only get started but helps me keep it going. She made me walk my talk. I am so proud of myself!
- C.F., Northville, MI

“Dear Diana, Your enthusiasm and energy never fail to get me motivated! Even when I’m feeling pulled in 10 different directions, you keep me focused. You really listen to me, and your nuggets of wisdom help me see things in a whole new light. My weekly action steps are just the right blend of both being doable for me, and yet challenging enough that I’m getting even more results than I thought possible! Thanks!”

“Diana got me moving! Helping me see the importance of exercise, and just encouraging me through emails, I am exercising 5 days a week.
- C.L. Pittsburgh, PA

“Diana, I just love the newsletter emails you send out!! They always give such great tips!  I went to Louise Hays’ website, and saved it as a favorite because the affirmations on there are great!  I will talk to you soon! ”

“I am a very busy resident with horrible eating habits, crazy schedules, and a stressful lifestyle. I knew I needed to control things, but I didn’t know how. I found Diana under “life coaching” on the internet. After my first conversation with her, I knew that things would be all right. She was so sweet, enthusiastic, and very motivating. She gave me the feeling that all my goals were completely obtainable and it could be done with ease.

The most important thing that Diana helped me with was my eating habits. She was a great resource with lots of useful knowledge. She learned my likes and dislikes and worked with me to find low calorie but delicious foods that were affordable. She would even tell me where to go and buy them. We made plans for every meal of every day that I worked with her.

Diana also taught me how important exercise is. We would have weekly schedules on what days I would exercise, the type of exercise I would do, and how long I would do it. She would also explore other forms of exercises that I never even knew about. With her help I was able to lose the 10 lbs that I wanted to, in completely healthy way.

My life is so chaotic with work, deadlines and extracurricular activities. Once my eating and exercise were under control, I used Diana’s help to organize my lifestyle. And all I have to say is, one month with Diana, and I was able to accomplish things that I would normally not even complete in 1 year. All my goals were very small ones, but at the end of each week, I would have cumulatively have accomplished so much.

Diana is an amazing person. I want to be as free spirited as her one day. She has excellent things to offer and she will definitely help you reach your goal no matter what it is. Diana is not only my coach but most of all a friend that I will always look up to.”

“When I started working with Diana only two months ago, I was sitting on my butt most of the day, working a lot on my laptop. My wife was exercising occasionally, and my 11-year-old son Kevin was—well, like Mini-Me. In two months, I’ve been exercising an average of 5 times per week, same with my wife, and Kevin is doing 4, with some exercise sessions going an hour and a half. I dropped about 8 pounds. My wife dropped about 5, and my son is feeling much better about himself. Our whole mindset has been transformed about staying fit and active, and having fun! Diana was also great working with Kevin, who’s often very reserved. In fact, he didn’t even want to get off the phone the last time they talked. He’s so excited! Thanks, Diana, and I wish you luck as you take on families like ours who need a nice, pleasant kick in the gluteals! Hey, guys – it wasn’t painful at all. Jump in and trust Diana. She knows what she’s doing! The rewards have permeated all areas of my life, and my energy levels are insanely high, and most of the time I have to force myself to go to bed.”

“Working with Diana has been a positive influence on many aspects of my life. She helped me see that if I put my mind to doing something I could achieve it. Diana helped give me the confidence to begin running. With her help I reached my goal of running in a 5K race.”
- Kati Baughman

“Diana’s ability to motivate, challenge, and zoom in on the practical steps to make a goal achievable, has empowered me to reach several personal and professional goals this past year. The latest was completing a 5K! Wow! I couldn’t have done it without her. Diana is the best!”
- Kate Cala, Murrysville, PA

“Diana has been outstanding as a Personal Coach. She talked me through doubts and inspired me to reach beyond what I thought were limitations. I now see that reaching “outside the box”, which in my case was Public Education, is not only possible but also profitable. My advocacy for The Arts in Education, has evolved into an amazing journey. Without Diana’s support, I would have been stuck. Instead a Visual Literacy Internet Presence and teaching resources for Parents and Teachers is now a dynamic aspect of the Public Domain. Thanks Diana. I wouldn’t have done it without you.”
- Daryle Crew Roboch, Ed.D.

“Diana,  We really enjoyed the workshop! You are such a great motivator!  We talked about the tips you gave us the whole way home and my friends enjoyed it as much as I did!”
- Kati B,  Murrysville, PA

“With her patient and encouraging life coaching, Diana Fletcher helped a sedentary 62-year-old, with a taste for good food and drink, take off — and keep off — nearly 15 pounds in the four months we worked together. Perhaps more importantly, I trimmed four inches off my waistline, dropping from size 40 to 36. Diana helped me break some thoughtless eating habits and made me more aware of calorie and carb intake. Her approach was reasonable and sensitive, recognizing that eating is essential and fun, within appropriate guidelines. Diana got me moving, too. I spend too much time on my laptop or watching TV. She encouraged me to exercise, even just for short walks or simple calisthenics I could do at home. Together we worked out action plans, including planning ahead for the temptations of parties, holidays and social events. Being accountable to my coach on a weekly basis was the key to making healthy changes, feeling better and getting the results I wanted.”
