Thanks to Katie Curtin and Denise Rushing’s breakthrough coaching and mentoring, I am presently the author of two best-selling books. "Discovering Your Heart Voice," is an Amazon best seller, and "ABC’s of Grief".
Katie helped me identify and clear away the sources of the resistance that blocked my writing flow time and time again... and Denise helped me navigate the art and science of getting published as a best-seller on Amazon.
The Summer Book Adventure gave me the tools and structures I needed to be both productive and clear, and also to remain accountable throughout the process. Katie’s one-on-one coaching then and now has helped me rediscover purpose and clarity when I felt stuck and inadequate for the task of writing a book. Our sessions left me feeling free and focused. Most importantly I learned how to process my feelings and arrive at a point of freedom on my own when points of resistance would surface. I am so grateful that Katie and Denise's gifts have touched my life!

With Katie’s help, I no longer feel resigned or frustrated about my life and work. During our coaching period, a publisher rejected my nonfiction manuscript.Instead of sending me into a tailspin of gloom, as such rejections have done so often in the past, it simply energized me to take a new direction with this project, knowing that it ultimately will be very successful. That is a profound and welcome difference--being able to respond to a seeming “down” with the deep knowledge that it will turn out to be right for me. And it did. A year later I signed with a publisher and the book came out in 2015.
Thanks, Katie!
