"Before working with Dakota, I didn’t realize how fast I was moving in circles, or how much my perception of reality was keeping me disconnected from clarity and my truth. Over the past year, our work together has helped me slow down, examine my thinking, and observe my blind spots, not to 'fix' myself, but to be at peace with myself. This work continues to challenge me daily in the best way, giving me the awareness and space to grow into a more grounded, intentional version of who I am."

"Dakota Koontz has helped me change my life and to recover my authentic self. My finances, satisfaction with the work I am paid to do and relationships (with myself and others) have improved in ways I could not have imagined in the past. I am more peaceful and am more often able to meet life’s challenges with equanimity and creative solutions than I was before we started working together.

​

Dakota brings respect, enthusiasm, life experience, humor, patience, authenticity, integrity, passion and commitment to every single coaching call. He has a gift for being totally present and hearing what is not being said as well as listening to what is being said during our conversations. He creates and holds a container in which everything is possible and assists with making the invisible - visible. Limiting beliefs, ideas, thoughts that were previously hidden and unreachable but influencing my point of view are brought to the surface to be healed and released.

​

Part of what makes Dakota’s coaching style so powerful is that he exudes and communicates unconditional love. This allows me to feel safe talking about sometimes uncomfortable, embarrassing and painful topics. He often helps me to laugh at the things that were previously painful. He shares empathy, compassion and kindness while also being direct and able cut through the 'BS' when needed.

 

The outcome of being coached by Dakota is that I am creating the life of my dreams. I am remembering who I truly am without the story that my mind and conditioning and past experiences were telling. This creates new possibilities in every area of life and I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to have this experience."
