Client Testimonials
I am honored to work with courageous, intelligent, & fierce mothering leaders and change-makers.
Here is what clients are saying about working with me:
"I was lost - all of my plates had simultaneously stopped spinning except for the "new mom" one that was teetering on the verge of collapsing. [...] Coral gently helped me scoop up all of the ceramic shards and helped me create a brand new mosaic - cohesive, stable, integrated, different from before, but beautiful.”

"Coral offers a wonderful service to working mothers. She is a great coach; her sensitive listening skills have supported me through some internal struggles. I deeply value the time we spent together and the advances she helped me make in my career right as I was finishing a degree, being a mom to a three-year-old and discontent with a job that I had been at for less than a year. I wouldn’t be this far along in my goals or have this much courage to make without her support.”

"I transitioned to a new role immediately after maternity leave, which led me to coaching. Coral helped me develop and implement strategies to manage difficult working relationships, disrupt negative thought patterns, and helped me achieve clarity on my career goals. Her work is enlightening, affirming, and actionable.”

"I have recommended Coral to just about every human being who will sit still long enough for me to get the words out. As someone with a busy career and small children, I was feeling scattered and in need of more support, and Coral has helped incredibly. I look forward to our sessions, I think about them afterward and use them to make real changes in my life. Using Coral for coaching is a gift you can give yourself.”

“I loved working with Coral! As a mom, my mind, my time, and my priorities were frustratingly fragmented. Coral always provided time and space for me to think through things, with gentle prompts. Overall, I ended up with the courage to go after the goals and ideas I had in my mind, and strategies to deal with all the concerns that I felt were stopping me before.”

“I recently had the privilege to work with Coral Edwards as my personal coach, and to say it was transformative would be an understatement. From the very first session, Coral created an atmosphere of trust and openness that allowed me to be completely candid about my challenges and aspirations. Her non-judgmental and understanding demeanor made it easy to share and reflect on my experiences.
One of Coral’s standout qualities is her uncanny ability to discern aspects about me that I had been blind to. It felt as if she had a unique gift, almost like a sixth sense, that made her pick up on facets of my character and potential that had been hidden or overlooked. This skill, combined with her impressive repertoire of evidence-based tools, helped me find ways to move forward, especially when I felt stuck. Whether it was navigating through conflicts or maximizing both my personal and professional life, her techniques were insightful and genuinely effective.
Coral’s dedication to empowering moms, primary caregivers, and professionals is evident in her coaching style. And as someone who fits the bill of a “busy professional mom,” I can attest that her services are invaluable. I would not just recommend, but would 1000% endorse Coral Edwards Coaching to anyone looking to make meaningful strides in their personal and professional journey. Whether you’re a mom trying to navigate the complexities of modern motherhood or a professional seeking a more fulfilling path (or both), Coral will guide you with empathy, expertise, and genuine passion.”

"Coral supported me during a pivotal moment in my life. As a first time mom and woman of color, I was struggling with my identity as I embraced newness of family and transitions in my careers. Coral provided a space for deep reflection and never minimized my feelings or life experiences. I felt very comfortable sharing with Coral and that was because I felt her to be relatable given her (observed) identities as a mom and educator. I found Coral to be compassionate, kind, non judgmental, and gentle which I desperately needed during one of the most vulnerable times in life and parenting journey. 10/10 recommend Coral Edwards Coaching ”

"Coral was amazing from day one. Our chemistry call got me so excited for the work we were gong to do together. She asked thoughtful, non judgmental questions to help guide me on my journey. Her evidence based tools gave me a practical way to put her guidance into practice by making me more mindful of and in tune with what my head and heart were telling me.”

“One year ago I found a coach and it’s been game changing.
When it was suggested I find a coach, I wanted someone who understood startup marketing, and nearly exactly at that moment Coral posted that she was available.
She’s an amazing coach. Now, I manage a team of three at OffSec and with help from my coach, I am a better leader, a better employee and a better mom.
Having a coach has helped me:
- gain perspective on my past and future
- ask better questions of myself and my team mates
- remind me that my whole self is better than a compartmentalized version and should be celebrated and needs balance
Thank you, Coral, for your support. I look forward to our session this week!”
