Denise is an amazing executive coach. She helped me clarify my strengths and change my mindset, and pushed me to take on new challenges. She taught me that everything does not have to be perfect to start a new venture. Denise helped me make a dream a reality and pushed me further and faster than I would have gotten on my own. I highly recommend working with her to anyone looking to make a career change or shift. I am truly thankful to have her in my life!

Working with Denise is a gift! When I met her, I had buried my own gifts under fear and self-doubt. She helped me dig out and find a more balanced--but still realistic--self-awareness. With Denise's help, I feel empowered to achieve my potential, both through a renewed energy to go after my goals and the resilience to take setbacks in stride. Denise can be tough--in a good way. She is direct, calls my on my bulls*ht, and creates accountability, but in a way that is objective, fair, and not at all judgmental. If you're feeling stuck, call her.

Coaching with Denise is one of the best investments I made in myself. She cares, she challenges and she inspires. Denise will help you get unstuck. She listens and she pushes, to make sure self-limiting beliefs are not holding you back and that you are living a life you will be proud to have lived.

Denise has been instrumental in my personal and professional development. She helped tailor programs to reach my needs and went beyond what I asked her to. She truly understands the areas I want to improve, finds proactive solutions for me, and challenges my existing thinking. Most importantly, I can sense how much she cares about her clients and believes in their success, which makes working with her that much more impactful.

The coaching experience provided by Denise has been absolutely stellar. We discussed a wide range of subjects which affected my overall well being. Her coaching style met my needs perfectly. Denise assesses and then provides thought provoking questions and exercises which lead the client to their own discoveries. My life has been so enriched by Denise’s coaching and workshops.

Working with Denise Harris Executive Coaching 1:1 helped me to redefine the way I saw myself as a leader. The coaching Denise provided has allowed me to work past behaviors that were causing stall and limiting my effectiveness as a leader. It's something I wish I had done long ago!

Denise is awesome!!!! I cannot express how valuable she was to my professional and personal development (because everything is interconnected). She challenged me to think critically, help identify internal areas that were limiting my successes, and discussed how to maintain the small successes that were already manifesting during our time together. As a woman of color, she understood generational barriers and helped me think about those affecting me and motivated me to strive above them to make changes where I needed in order to reach my potential and goals. She is a great listener, motivational speaker and supporter. Anyone looking to make changes in their lives professionally, in a gentle no-nonsense kind of way, and with strategy, Denise is your girl. I truly value and appreciate her.

I started working with Denise during a crisis point in my career, when I noticed the job I was doing felt like it wasn’t appreciated by my organization, and more importantly, by me! Denise helped me to shine a light on the value I bring. She also helped me to define the non-negotiables in my life and build strategy to make sure I no longer have to compromise what is important to me. Denise gave me the tools to remember and practice what I’ve learned, and to take the skills forward into new challenges. It was truly a life-changing experience and I consider myself fortunate to have worked with her!

I have had the honor to work with Denise Harris as my Executive Coach for 3 years. During this time, our work has brought incredible transformation in my life and career. I created a new role for myself in the corporation where I worked for 25 years, adapted and pivoted to build new skills and have just launched my own Coaching business. I absolutely believe that without Denise and her commitment to support, encourage and challenge me I would have remained stuck and playing small. What a thrill to have someone like Denise in my corner expanding my mind and helping me to create a vision for my future that I could never have imagined. Thank you with all my heart Denise!

“ Denise has been a constant presence over the last year, challenging, guiding and supporting me with her words of positive advice as well as her writings and assigned readings. Throughout all of the challenges, and there have been many, she has worked with me to change my thoughts and behaviors to achieve the highest and best possible outcomes which enabled me to make some pretty transformative changes in my life. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone wanting a change or facing a challenge in their life.”

” I have opened my eyes to so many new opportunities and being open to what is presented to me. “

“With Denise’s coaching, I was able to take my big goal of writing a book and break it into smaller action steps. She was with me, by my side, the whole time—keeping me accountable, engaged, and focused. By participating in Mission North Star, I have opened my eyes to so many new opportunities and being open to what is presented to me. I am energized and jazzed by life and its unknown path, and I am further convinced of the possibilities that await me. Coaching with Denise has helped open my eyes and my heart. I am grateful. “

“ I experienced a complete shift and have reframed my outlook and approach to how I show up in the world and how I manage my business.“

“We’ve all heard the quote “When the student is ready the Teacher will appear”, that began my amazing journey with Denise Harris. I left a successful career in corporate and transitioned to a Solopreneur. I stepped out on faith and determination and as faith would have it, Denise appeared and has helped to direct my steps personally and professionally. Denise operates as an insightful and laser focused Coach. She isn’t your typical Business Coach; she’s a Life Builder Partner. My personal emotional blocks prevented me from living and experiencing the life I wanted to live and the world needed to see from me. Working with Denise, I experienced a complete shift and have reframed my outlook and approach to how I show up in the world and how I manage my business. I can’t imagine where I would be now without the coaching partnership I have with Denise. She is an incredible Coach, who cares passionately about her clients. I’m ready for my next journey and it includes Denise Harris. “

She identifies and tailors your coaching to YOU – and cares about your success, professionally and as a person.”
