Made me feel like I could talk about anything:

“Damodar made me feel like I could talk about anything without worrying about being judged or criticized. He helped me learn to take a step back from my indecorous behaviors, so I can avoid them by understanding the reasons behind them. What I’m really grateful for is not only did this help me, but it also helped the people I’m close with. There are so many paths and goals in life, but I was able to find that the morals that can guide me are already deep inside myself. It takes strength to put your hands down and admit you don’t have your act altogether. But I learned more about myself that way. ”

— Marco “Manohar” P.

Made me feel less “stuck” and more whole in myself and my experience:

“Damodar carefully facilitated a coaching space for gentle and thoughtful introspection and self-exploration. While working with him, I always felt heard, received, and understood. He helped by sharing other perspectives and viewpoints which made me feel less “stuck” and more whole in myself and my experience. The journaling activities were a paramount tool in navigating my inner landscapes and processing my thoughts and emotions. I’d love to work with Damodar again, and would certainly recommend his service to others!”

Made a challenging transition a lot less difficult:

Damodar’s coaching helped me identify ways I was holding myself back. His guidance made a challenging transition a lot less difficult. He also went above and beyond to make himself available in a personal way.”

— Sam K., Colorado

Extremely insightful, relatable, non-judgmental, comforting, but also challenging when I need that:

“For years I had journaled on and off, always with the intention to make it a daily habit, but was never able to maintain the practice. Damodar’s habit tracker and stimulating journal prompts helped me rediscover my love for journaling and it’s been a consistent daily habit for me ever since.

I appreciated the insights Damodar offered, and especially the way in which he offered them. Rather than just telling me how to improve, he helped guide my introspections in a way that I was able to see the deeper causes of negative habits and understand why I developed them as coping strategies, as well as the valid need I was trying to meet, and how I could meet that need in healthier ways. In this way, he showed me how transforming habits is not as much a process of self-neglect and restraint, but rather self-care.

In working with Damodar, I was also able to see subtle connections between different tendencies in my life that were previously unnoticed. This was highly empowering and motivating to know that addressing and working on the root of one problem would enhance multiple aspects of my life; and my experience since then has confirmed this to be true. He is extremely insightful, relatable, non-judgmental, comforting, but also challenging when I need that. It's clear that Damodar is integral in practicing and living what he teaches.”

Navigating conflict in a way where our relationship actually becomes deeper:

“I appreciated Damodar's non-judgmental demeanor, but at the same time, his ability to help me recognize harmful patterns in my thinking and behavior. The conversations, structured journaling, and role-playing, all helped me to better understand my wife's feelings and communicate my own. We've started learning how to navigate conflict in a way where our relationship actually becomes deeper.”

— J.W., North Carolina

Deepened my thinking about seemingly mundane things:

“What I appreciated most about working with Damodar was his friendliness and genuine care. I was looking for more balanced ways to approach work, and quickly found that I had a lot of unconscious emotions and beliefs driving me. Damodar asked questions that deepened my thinking about seemingly mundane things, and he was a great listener. I learned to be less critical of myself, stop pushing myself to extremes, and instead be productive while also taking needed rest.”

— Luke Vanderlinden, Michigan

The opposite of shame:

“For many years I had an addiction. I felt so ashamed that I went out of my way to keep it secret, even while seeking help. I've done coaching with Damodar for over three years now, and we've actually written down my whole life story together. I began to realize that my addiction makes perfect sense given my rough circumstances and sensitive nature. I also began to see my way out of it. I've become more assertive and self-satisfied in my dealings with others. I've learned how to accept my feelings, and take greater responsibility. The experience of having Damodar get to know me so personally, and still be warm and accepting, has been the opposite of shame. He’s a really great guy.”

— K.D. New York

Earned my trust:

“Damodar has an enthusiasm for the spiritual health of his clients along with transparency regarding his own journey. He has earned my trust and inspired me to care for myself in a way I have needed, but neglected for a long time.”

— D.K. Florida

I've learned how to approach growth in a more balanced and wholistic way:

"Before I started meeting weekly with Damodar, I was overwhelmed with so many things I have to juggle in my life. I was feeling resentful, burnt out, and struggling with some habits that weigh down on my conscience. Damodar helped me to prioritize and integrate the different aspects of my life, so that now I know how to best utilize my time and energy. Getting this weight off my chest has been a breakthrough in regards to anger management and overcoming my bad habits. I've learned how to approach growth in a more balanced and wholistic way. This coaching experience has been more effective than seeing a psychiatrist, and far more affordable.”

— Santosh, California

Genuine:

“Damodar is one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. His experience and insight allow him a unique ability to guide his clients into their hearts to connect to the deepest clarity.”

— K.S. Florida

I began to discover my own voice:

“Damodar helped me to see parts of myself that I wasn’t allowing myself access to. When I first started taking his help, I was imposing a value system on myself that didn’t actually reflect my innermost self and desires. I was really just absorbing the value systems of other people out of fear of rejection or conflict, while half-heartedly passing them off as my own. With his kind and steady help, I began to discover my own voice, and a deep, genuine self-confidence. He is my dear friend, brother, and mentor. I highly recommend him as a coach for those who want to uncover their true potential.”

— A.P. Colorado

An excellent guide into my inner life:

“Damodar has been an excellent guide into my inner life of rejuvenation and self-improvement. He facilitated the understanding that I needed to begin profound changes in my life.”

— M.H. New York

Stepping into my power:

“I’ve had moments where I was afraid of losing myself. I couldn’t believe where I’d been and what I’d done. My inner child and personality, the voice of my conscience that I had known all my life was feeling dim, and I realized how scary the world can be.

My conversations with Damodar were an important part of stepping into my power, and putting these insights to practice. Having a space to talk openly helped me to get in touch with a deeper place in myself, and solidify it in how I live my life. I was able to bypass some serious temptations, and now I’m experiencing a level of stability and fulfillment that I’ve never reached in my whole life. It’s still challenging to maintain, but everything is more simple now.”
