Will’s continual encouragement allowed me to look at my life with a more positive attitude.  I started taking more responsibility for myself, and became bolder and more courageous then before.  Will coached me through a huge decision-making process and without his guidance and support; I would not be as confident and excited as I am now regarding the direction of my future.  Will is a magnificent life coach and has a tremendous gift to offer.
