“Working with Carla has been life-changing. Carla’s gift of actively listening provided me with enough direction to start to live and work intentionally.  Within thirty minutes into our first phone call, she had me pegged and told me exactly what she thought I needed to do to succeed.  She is direct, while being compassionate and considerate of what is comfortable, and she gently urged me out of my comfort zone.  It was Carla’s encouragement that I needed to take the steps to start working on goals that I wanted to set for myself, but always let fear get in the way of.  Carla will help you to unapologetically claim your goals and teach you how to reach for them. 

I worked with Carla remotely as I live in the Northeast United States. Carla’s ability to motivate someone without ever meeting face-to-face is a testament to her ability to mentor well. I never ended a phone call with Carla without feeling inspired, motivated, or without direction. At the end of our series of phone calls, I was left with invaluable tools to help me continue to succeed while maintaining the knowledge that Carla was just a phone call or email away.  

Carla never left me feeling like she was at a level that I could not attain. Sometimes our conversations took place while she was ordering coffee at the drive through at Starbucks. I appreciated knowing that I was talking to someone who was highly successful and at that same time does real-life like I do. Not once, however, did I feel like I was not the main focus of the time that I had with Carla. She is the epitome of professionalism.  I am so thankful that I was blessed enough to work with Carla as my mentor and I look forward to our future encounters. It is with conviction that I recommend Carla Howard as a Professional Mentor.”
