Their words ..

“Elaine has taken my journey of confusion and turned it into a journey of hope” ______________________________________________

“I am a smart, driven, determined, and industrious individual, and yet as I worked to achieve my goals and aspirations, Elaine Burthey helped me see that it is not always enough but rather sometimes I had to get out of my own way in order to achieve my goals and dreams.  Don’t let the gentle exterior fool you, Elaine possesses the steely determination, the often overlooked wisdom and spiritual fortitude, and the results oriented mindset to help anyone move from where they are to where they want to be.  Fortunately, she is compassionate too because for anyone who has had to wade through the naysayers and the weight of life to accomplish anything against the odds does not always need a drill sargent to inspire them to achieve.  Wonderfully, Elaine is grounded in reality and realizes that we do not live in a vacuum .  As a result, she helped me to appreciate the importance of  striking a balance in my own life between work, family, and community, explaining that the presence of all three can replenish us.  If you have the opportunity to work with this woman, run, don’t walk toward doing so!”
