“I cannot say enough good things about Alex! I consider him to be a godsend. I found him when I was at a low point in my career. After six months of coaching, he has made me see myself in a very different light. That shift has already created major changes and brought back meaning to my life.

Sessions with Alex are very different from timed therapy sessions. He actively engages with you and asks perceptive, contextual questions. In the process of answering these questions, he helps you to tap into deep insights and inner strengths. I went into each session as though I was talking to a wise friend. I left each session feeling hopeful and rejuvenated.

Before committing to the sessions, I wasn’t quite sure about the six month schedule but now I know I absolutely needed that time. Just like crash diets rarely work, it takes time to solidify the mind shifts that are needed for coaching to be effective. Even though I consider myself to be introspective and highly self-aware, I very much needed Alex’s gentle guidance to help me see my limiting patterns and stay on course.

I cannot recommend Alex enough. Anyone who is feeling stuck will benefit greatly from his coaching. It is truly life changing and the best investment I ever made.”

“Alex is a truly transformational coach. In working with him you will have an unconditionally supportive mentor who, through deep compassion and wisdom, will help you channel the best version of yourself based on your own terms.

Alex provides a nonjudgemental space for you to work through situations that you’re currently facing as well as beliefs and patterns that may be holding you back. In the detailed notes you receive after each session you will find amazing insights filled with guidance as well as thought-provoking questions and resources that leave room for continued self-exploration and growth.

Working with Alex has enriched my daily life, relationships, and career in too many ways to name; I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“I cannot recommend Alex Poeter enough. He is worth his weight in gold!!!! Alex's gift is helping people rewire their brains to think of problems differently.

After a session with Alex, you will never think the same way about the problem(s) you've been having. Some things Alex has done for me personally include teaching me how to locate the emotion of resentment in my body, teaching me how to identify what I actually want to do at work vs. what I do not want to do, encouraging me to follow my inner wisdom concerning how to best get my work done, and teaching me how to detach from the opinions of other people to judge myself based on my own values and principles. The list could go on and on.

Additionally, I am a very visual learner and thinker, and Alex has met me fully in all my zany visual metaphors innumerable times. Alex takes the problem you need help with and sets it up like a prism, allowing you to see every facet of it and its true depth.

By the time a session with Alex is over, your initial qualm has morphed into at least 3 different sub-problems. (I am never aware of all the subparts of my problems until a session with Alex.) While I do believe Alex helps people rewire their brains, he does this by zooming you out so you can see where the wires got tangled and decide where things should actually go instead. He guides you back to yourself more than anything else, and he makes you believe you are capable, intelligent, and creative.

I hear Alex's voice in my head when I approach problems now. He is that good! I rate Alex 1000/10. He has indisputably changed my life profoundly and changed it for the better.”

“Working with Alex completely debunked any preconceived notions I had about what a coach was or is. I figured coaches sort of had their formula for success or their recipe and impose that upon you or directed you in that direction.

Alex was completely different. He what I would say takes a human-centered approach to coaching. His approach investigates the relationships between work, personal life, relationships, past history, fears, and blockages around moving forward. And he really sees those all as working together as part of the larger picture and that we can’t actually just separate a career from everything else. And so in that way, I see his approach as being very holistic, and this was really refreshing and a gratifying way to work with him.

Alex is an amazing listener. He is compassionate. He’s empathic, he’s a strategic thinker. He is everything you would want to have in someone who you’re opening up to about something such as a career choice or a lifestyle change. Alex is also an amazing note taker. He listens and takes copious notes and sends them to you with his feedback and insights, which is really very helpful. I can’t recommend Alex highly enough. He’s really transformed the way I think about not only my work, but also my life and my relationships and the interconnections between all of these pieces. I highly, highly recommend Alex.”

“Alex is smart, committed, supportive and has decades of leadership experience. When I am working with him on a project, his contributions make that project better. He has helped me grow both personally and professionally. I can’t imagine a better person to help organizations and individuals build on their strengths.”

— Tara Mack, Executive Director, Education for Liberation Network

“I've gained so much from my sessions with Alex, particularly from his emphasis on finding a way to lean into my authentic self. This led me to a whole new way of seeing the world and my place in it. By listening and reflecting back what he heard from me, Alex supported me to identify my work values, my unique strengths, and how I can best use them to make an impact and create the experiences I want to have in life doing what I love.”
