"Lillit Cholakian is incredibly intuitive, a wonderful listener, and highly pragmatic and has found her calling as a career coach. In terms of pedigree, she is a successful business person who also happens to be a trained coaching professional. Lillit assesses and offers a view of your situation quickly. She was extremely helpful in developing my vision for the organization, and for thinking through how to manage issues while pursuing the next milestone. She sees the best in you and helps you to build a plan for how to put those strengths and passions to work in a career and in life. Equal parts business and advisor, coach, and cheerleader, Lillit helps you to bring your vision to life. I’m very grateful to have worked with her for the past 3-years and the community have benefited from the nine John Maxwell leadership classes she has conducted for the community.

"Lillit Cholakian is an incredible coach and mentor. I have taken several of her mastermind classes with John Maxwell. Each one of the classes have had a different focus and a different group of people sharing ideas and experiences with each other. The one constant has been the way that Lillit can listen and give input and advice in a profound way that makes me want to do better. She has planted seeds to create a leadership fanatic within me. Since starting her classes I have taken on a Board of Director’s position with PCMA SWP chapter and became the President of Speaking Your Business Toastmasters club. In addition, I have applied what I have learned within my work and personal life. I highly recommend that you contact Lillit and let her help improve your life as well."

"Thanks to Ms. Lillit Cholakian, I was able to learn new ideas, grow, evolve and transform myself and my business via new service offerings. My confidence improved and I see my and other people’s full potential. Within weeks of working with Lillit, I added new service offerings such as workshops, training and seminars, to my business, including paid speaking engagements. I was tapped for a paid speaking engagement and spoke with pose and confidence within weeks of starting her program."

"I can’t even begin to describe how crucial it has been for me to choose Lillit as my professional coach. When I met her for the very first time, during one of the mastermind group studies, I was amazed by her wisdom and decided to get some info about her sessions. Now, after six months, I realize that it has been one of the best investments that I have made in myself. I was going to launch my coaching business but I was full of fear, insecurity, self-doubt and was surrounded by people who were constantly discouraging me with their negative comments about my ideas. Lillit helped me be more aware of and work with my strengths, weaknesses, passion, and overcome the self-limiting beliefs that were holding me back. The most precious quality that I appreciate about Lillit - she does her job with compassion and care. There are a lot of coaches out there but not everyone does their job with all their heart, passion, compassion, and care as Lillit does. I saw in my own life how things changed and I want to share my experience so more people life's can be transformed. I'm so thankful and grateful to her for the way she has been coaching. My life has completely changed, I stepped into a new chapter and started to believe in my God-given potential."
