What women are saying about working with me

“When I began coaching sessions with Ruth, I sought clarity and direction in my life. I wanted a direct approach that would challenge me while holding me accountable for achieving my goals. Since starting, I have made tremendous progress, launching a new website, creating art and fashion pieces, and working on my autobiography about my spiritual journey. Each week brings greater accomplishments than the last.

Ruth creates a rare and welcoming space where I can freely be myself without judgment. Our sessions inspire me, help me refocus, and get back on track - even during emotional, transformative weeks.

I appreciate the direct questions which she asks me to consider. They are always on point and straight to the heart of the matter which I may not be able to assess on my own.

When I first met Ruth, I had good intentions but struggled to make progress or advance my ideas, feeling lost and stuck. With Ruth's ongoing support and guidance over the months since, I have experienced consistent forward momentum in my life and work, steadily moving ahead week by week even when progress feels small.

Ruth helped me quickly overcome my negative thinking patterns by using journal prompts that gave space for my ego to vent while allowing my heart to voice the real truth. After my long health crisis, her coaching directly assisted me in rebuilding my self-belief and confidence levels.

Ruth provides a structured coaching framework that can help those with an unstructured nature. She communicates directly, asking insightful questions that address core issues. Clients will feel safe unpacking their blocks at their own pace under her guidance, which nudges them positively. After each session, expect to feel fully supported and empowered.”

What women are saying about working with me

Circumstances: Needing to get more in touch with my feelings and emotions, especially with family. Ruth listened very well to my ramblings for a while, then started to focus on me. She helped me to identify the heart of a situation, a feeling, a yearning I was expressing by asking a simple open-ended question; usually one I'd never considered or wanted to consider. Best and worst of all, she gave me things to think about, write about, and face between our sessions, making me accountable. I hated that, but it was the best approach for me to get me out of my head and into concrete action. The takeaway for me was to have direct, honest, and vulnerable conversations, especially with my loved ones and any other folks that I come in contact with.

Result: I have felt freer in communicating by remaining aware of my true feelings and not suppressing them, but also not blaming others.  I'm still a work in progress, but Ruth has made the work easier by focusing on me. I know what I have to continue to do.

Ruth also firmed my desire to re-imagine myself and to let go of the need to show up as perfect - a product of childhood conditioning. That was the most freeing aspect of all. The sessions, her supportive texts, and her availability between sessions were just what I needed. 

Working with Ruth Littlejohn will require you to be honest with yourself and your role in creating your life. It might be a little scary but, boy will you feel better.  She'll support you all the way.”

What women are saying about working with me

“I was working as a branch chief with nine direct reports, reporting to a division director and office director. I was desperate, and considering quitting due to conflicts with the office director. My goal in receiving her coaching was to get a new job. With Ms. Littlejohn’s help, I learned coping skills and how to manage my manager by using more effective communication. I also developed better relationships with my direct reports, peers in my own and outside organizations, and my division director.

I appreciated Ms. Littlejohn’s approach to coaching me not only in my professional role but as a whole person. She not only helped me turn failure into success at work but helped me through two major family emergencies. As a result, I was able to maintain my composure and effectiveness as a supervisor.”

The most significant message I took away from Ms. Littlejohn’s coaching was to be confident in myself as a leader and an integral part of my working and personal communities.

The biggest impact that coaching had in my life, other than helping me be successful at my job, was to consider what would bring me fulfillment in my life. I determined that I wanted to use my creativity and skills to have a positive impact on my community.

If you are considering using Ms. Littlejohn’s services, trust her to guide you well in all your endeavors, and to develop a solid foundation for the rest of your life.”
