When Feelings (Big, Scary Feelings) Take Over

Vibrations Coaching: When big scary feelings take over, small woman facing an enormous wave

When my children were babies, I remember watching their feelings take over their bodies. Delight, bliss, exhaustion, fury would just wash over my child. Sometimes I felt a little envious of how flowing and free the process seemed. Babies do

True Stories I Lie To Myself With

I keep telling myself this story about how I am a person that appreciates quiet, stillness, introspection. I love the feeling of awe that comes over me when I really see something that has been there all along (my neighbor’s

Even Though Truth Changes

I know what true feels like, energetically. And that is what I write: I write what is true. But I also know that what was true this morning can change by tomorrow. Knowing that is the second reason it has

I wouldn’t be where I’m at, had I not experienced what I did with you. It’s so powerful, I couldn’t even imagine it when we started out. I am so grateful to have found you in my path: someone who understands me and helped me out of feeling stuck! Now, when I find myself faced with some difficulty, I remember what I have learned with you and I know that I can handle it, and learn more in the process!

Lisa Boragine

It’s not just that she listens well, it is that Andrea Friedmann's listening style forces a certain amount of honesty out of you, which is not always comfortable, to be honest, but it is very healthy. I found myself continuing to reflect on our conversation far beyond the individual coaching session. Our work together facilitated an honest reflection within myself that allowed me to move past some old, tired conversations that I hadn't even realized I had been having until then.

You give me the greatest gift that can be given; you give me the possibility to love myself. I can soften my stance and dance. And when I stiffen, I can live that state and observe whatever comes from it.

Ellen Wood

When I met Andrea Friedmann, I immediately recognised that there is something unique about her, a special gift of insight that enhances her coaching. One of her major strengths is that she does not lecture you, nor does she try to impose her views. Rather, she acts as a facilitator, assisting in what is ultimately a process of self-discovery.

You have some kind of special gift – it’s kindness and compassion combined with insight, intelligence and a “knowing” about life and people. You have wisdom and you help me by sharing that. I never quite know what will “stick” but you always say or mention something that helps me along this journey. Thank you!

Every conversation we have exists for me in two ways: (1) Receiving wisdom through someone who is blessed, inspired by their work and is a blessing to others and (2) Feeling universal support, hearing it’s voice and recognizing that it speaks to us in the language WE understand, through those who can help us.

This wisdom that you share is always teaching my Spirit how to keep the evolution going. I am so grateful, that I’m actually in shock by the profound message that you have communicated. It is amazing to see how the “other side” endows you with special gifts that have the ability to assist others in metamorphosis. You are truly blessed and a blessing to others by choosing to embrace your gifts. Truly inspiring.Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I’ve known & worked with Andrea for the last two years. Often I feel uncertain when she starts talking — I think because I sense that she can help me access my inner truth & self-knowledge which I never THINK I want to access. But I just breathe & go along & it always turns out meaningful, illuminating, helpful, insightful, gratifying & many other things, and NOT negative/scary/problematic. ALWAYS hugely thankful that I didn’t bail.

Kathi Davis

I have known Andrea for many years but only recently started to work with her. Since I have always felt very comfortable with Andrea and her warm, stable energy, I decided to trust her with guiding me through a very difficult time I have been going through in my life.

Andrea has been truly AMAZING! She has been able to clearly identify the key issues and design the right exercises for me to slowly replenish my energy. She has also brought me to look at things I did not have the courage or wisdom to examine before. In between sessions, Andrea has offered me invaluable support to continue the work.

With Andrea, you are in a safe, trustworthy and non-judgmental space that will allow you to rebuild your energy.

Martin Bingham

She has helped me to identify several of the obstacles and behavior patterns that were inhibiting my personal and professional progress, and, hence, is the person to whom I turn whenever I need to think through difficult issues or to make important decisions. As a result of our work, I have been able to summon the courage to address some obstacles, and addressing the challenges has created a positive feedback loop that resulted in improvements in other areas of my life as well.

I worked with Andrea for almost a year and could quickly see and feel huge differences in my life! Andrea is a very open and intuitive person. I trusted her right away (which is a rarity for me when I first meet/ start working with people). That trust led to some very powerful work stemming from our sessions together. I cannot recommend Andrea enough! She knows what her clients need and intuits the best ways to help them move forward as enlightened, stronger, true spiritual beings on their journeys through life.

Amy Davis

One of Andrea’s many gifts include that she truly does see and connect to your highest self. Her commitment to being aware of and honoring your best self then naturally deepens your own attention to it, as well, gently inviting you to live from a conscious awareness of your own beauty with far greater frequency.

Staci Page Oien, Take Sanctuary

Andrea helped me transform fear into profit in just one session! She helped me identify some things I hadn’t even realized about myself with such loving spirit and presence, I felt completely at ease and comfortable going to that place. She accelerated the experience of getting in touch with some beliefs that I had about what I was capable of doing in my business. It was phenomenal! If you are up to doing big things and getting in touch with the gifts that you bring, and getting them out into the world, I highly recommend that you give her a call!

Andrea is a genuine healer--the real deal--someone who is able to hold sacred space through the gift of profound presence.

Professional Actress

I am a professional actress and was experience debilitating stage fright the likes of which I had never encountered. My heard was pounding before entrances, I was forgetting lines and I was terrified of being fired. After two hours coaching with Andrea, I felt lighter and easier in the world and the next time I walked onstage in front of an audience I felt grounded, focused and proud of my work! I was able to recall every line and connect with my scene partners. Furthermore, she gave me tools to help me through future challenges which have been deeply empowering and effective. -Professional Actress, Chicago, IL

Andrea turns on the lightbulb in your head and helps you see the obvious. Once she taught me to recognize my limiting beliefs and energy drains, which were preventing me from achieving maximum success, my business plan instantly became clearer, I am more successfully making money, and am happier with who I choose as clients.

As a mompreneur, I highly recommend Andrea as a resource for business success and work/life balance. She is a joy to be around and her sense of calm and positivity instantly put you in a state of comfort.

Kathy Kessenich, Well Being Massage Therapy, Evanston, IL

From the first session, Andrea helped me begin to clear my blocks to success by intuitively listening and encouraging me to probe deeper into my limiting beliefs. One of my blocks was investing in myself. As soon as I did invest in myself by engaging Andrea as a coach, the floodgates opened on my massage business. In fact, during our first session together, the phone rang twice and both turned out to be opportunities to expand my business. In the weeks following, I booked 10 completely new clients. I highly recommend Andrea to anyone who is looking to make positive change in their lives whether in business or personally.

I started our working together not certain what to expect. The self discovery has been gentle and multifaceted, I find myself more willing to sit with discomfort because of the tools and wisdom you shared.

At the start, I talked about needing to set stronger boundaries, and I feel that I do that much better now.

Something else that has shifted for me is that I take more (and better) care for myself and I honor what I need. Each call was a safe space to explore thoughts, core beliefs and share vulnerabilities - Thank you for creating a gentle program with powerful tools of self discovery.

All my life I used to wake up feeling anxious and nervous about the day ahead. Now, after coaching with Andrea, I wake calm and rested. I have the tools to help me move past any negative emotions that don’t serve me, and can replace old, limiting beliefs with new, empowering ones. Because of this, my confidence is back and my regular migraines are almost non-existent!
