 Before coaching with Pam, I was always tired – and had been for a long time. 

Pam helped me see that my mental clutter and second-guessing were a big cause of my fatigue. She taught me to notice the negative things I was telling myself and reframe them.

Working with Pam, I learned to trust myself and focus on what makes me happy. When I began to notice something good that happened each week, it changed my perspective.

Now I second-guess myself much less. Before, I expected myself to make perfect decisions. Now I recognize that I do the best I can – and that’s good enough!

What I loved most about coaching with Pam is that she a great listener and always encouraging and supportive. Now that I’m taking time for myself and getting in touch with my authentic self, I have a lot more energy!

When I started Pam’s Thriving Through Life’s Transitions program in June of 2024, I was feeling lost and alone. My self-esteem was in the dumps and the negative self-talk was slowly destroying me. I saw Pam’s program as a lifeline and I grabbed it for all it was worth. 

Together we came up with some very specific goals to get me feeling more like myself and more at peace. Week after week we worked on those goals - especially the mental clutter.  Then suddenly it was the end of our sessions and I looked back and realized I had transformed! Just like the Monarch butterfly that was once a caterpillar, crawling on a milkweed, I had learned to spread my wings and fly. 

I said goodbye to the people, and the negative thoughts that no longer served me and once again felt light and free and happy. 

You don’t have to suffer in silence. Let Pam show you how to untangle your messy mind and be free once again. Sometimes we can be our own worst enemies. Let go as I did and let Pam’s proven techniques help you get your life back on track. Life is too short to waste a minute dwelling on the past.

 Before coaching with Pam, I struggled with self-doubt, fear of the future, and feeling unfulfilled.   I felt like I was constantly in a cycle of uncertainty and lacked confidence in my abilities.  While working with Pam,  I embraced the importance of being present, letting go of fear, and finding joy in simplicity. This realization was freeing and empowering.   I was able to be honest with myself and Pam's accountability is what I needed to continue my transformation.

What I loved most about coaching with Pam is her ability to help me see beyond my immediate fears and challenges. Pam’s approach is encouraging and uplifting, helping me find my own voice and passions again. Pam's support helped me see that I was stronger than I realized. 

The turning point was realizing that my biggest obstacle was myself. Pam's coaching helped me get out of my own way, embrace failures, and find joy in the little things. Her support has been a guide, helping me navigate through uncertainty and find peace in the present moment. 

I appreciated Pam’s ability to guide me through transformation while allowing me to remain the leader of my journey. She helped me discover my own path, encouraging me to overcome challenges and view things from a fresh perspective. Now, I feel more grounded and joyful.

 I am 100% confident that committing to Pam Miller's Thriving Through Life’s Transitions program was one of the best decisions I have ever made. 

Before coaching with Pam, I struggled with healthy work life balance and allowing the rigorous demands of my profession to negatively impact my health and well-being outside of work. Pam taught me healthy habits that have not only helped me during our coaching sessions but are also proven skills that I will continue to adapt in my life indefinitely. 

The three most significant results I've experienced from coaching with Pam are feeling more positive, having more energy, and experiencing less stress. What I loved most about working with Pam is that she caters her program to your specific needs and concerns, is easily accessible outside of coaching sessions, and provides regular check-ins. 

Pam's sessions work and I recommend to anyone thinking about hiring a Life Coach to work with Pam! You will not be disappointed.

 One of the most significant results I experienced from coaching with Pam is a greater awareness of how negative thoughts/self-talk impact me. By capturing negative thoughts with gratitude and reframing them into positive statements, my entire being is uplifted, and as a result, the atmosphere in my home is much lighter and more pleasant. 

 What I loved most about coaching with Pam is her genuinely caring personality. I know that she worked hard to tailor the sessions to my specific needs with great insight and provided me with many tools to help me on my transformation health journey.   Thank you so much, Pam!

 The vessel that sank my life was the “2019 Titanic.”  Pam helped me break through that awful life experience and come out as a stronger person.  She coached me in looking at friendships, co-workers/boss’s relationships with a new perspective and gave me tools to help me not go down the “rabbit hole” of negativity. I began to draw boundaries, which helped me feel in control of my life and situations. I feel more confident!

I am so glad our paths crossed. At our first meeting, Pam told me “I’m here for you” and that resonated with me because I could tell she was a person of her words. Because of Pam “rowing in the boat with me,” I knew I was not alone in this life journey. I am so grateful for Pam and will continue to say THANK YOU for helping me get my life back!

Working with Pam as my health coach was truly life-changing for me. I began the 12 week coaching program as a mom of two young children at a time when I felt very personally depleted and burnt-out due to health challenges others in my family had recently gone through and the personal toll it had taken on me as well.

Through Pam's excellent questions and her commitment to helping me "dig deeper" to find the real answers within myself, I completely expanded my definition of health from just a number on the scale to a truly all-encompassing definition. She helped me re-discover just how greatly my emotional, mental and spiritual health matter and the high impact they have on my overall health (including the physical). I learned to set goals based on what I truly need in that particular season of life and not just what I think my goals "should" be based on external influences. 

Even after completing the 12 weeks of coaching sessions with Pam, I have been so motivated to continue taking more action to prioritize my physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health - which has led to great things for both me and my family. I've gone from feeling like a burnt-out mom to an empowered, energetic force to help myself, my family, and others create a healthier future!

 I started meeting with Pam to help with my transition into retirement. She provided strategies and techniques focused on a positive self image. I realized that I was holding back in my relationships and not being my authentic self. Pam helped me become more open in conversations and encouraged me to be myself. This newfound freedom is providing me with a positive self image and helping me live my true authentic life. Also during my discussions with Pam, I was able to make some changes to my eating habits and begin my weight loss journey. I appreciated Pam's ability to help me focus on the root of an issue, not the outcome. To foster accountability, we ended each session with a few items for me to focus on during the next week. Thank you Pam for helping me take a hard look at some deep rooted issues.

Before our first meeting, I was afraid that I would not have the mental or physical energy to put into practice the things that Pam might ask of me but, after only 3 meetings, I feel much less stressed and I have mental and physical energy that I typically do not  possess.  After a chaotic incident recently,  I was not affected nearly to the degree that I typically would have been as I was able to act upon the situation with a positive can-do attitude instead of reacting and allowing stress to take over.

I look forward to more meetings as Pam coaches me along my journey toward mental, emotional and physical health!

Through Pam’s guidance, I rediscovered myself and experienced a newfound joy and freedom in my life. I felt like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, shedding my old ways of thinking and behavior and learning to grow, change, and be creative.

As I reflect on my progress since my last meeting with Pam a couple months ago, I am not only following through with all my health and life goals we discussed, but I am also able to share what I have learned with my husband, and together we are making positive changes in our lives.

Working with Pam was a transformative experience that helped me find my inner strength and resilience. I am grateful for the tools she provided me and will continue to use them to help myself and those around me. Thank you, Pam, for being a guiding light on my journey towards wellness.

Since working with Pam, I have a more positive attitude, thoughts, and outlook on life. I feel better about myself.  One of the ways that I started feeling better about myself was by doing things I enjoy.  This was not something I had done for years because I put my needs on the “back burner.”  Spending time on things I enjoy (self-care) really made a positive difference in my life, such as positively impacting my moods.  It also increased my energy level – which was one of my goals.  Now I have more energy throughout the day, which I am happy about.  Thank you, Pam! You are awesome!

 I am happy with where I’m at just four weeks in, as I’m already seeing major improvements in making healthy choices out of habit. I have a better understanding of myself and what my body is saying, especially with knowing when I’m hungry.
