Changing lives, one conversation at a time...

"Judy Turnbull coached me into freedom. I wondered if I could feel connected with a person I had never met face to face, but our first phone coaching session alleviated that concern. Within the first hour I felt that Judy truly cared about what was going on in my life and was committed to helping me approach each day with authentic confidence and faith in my Creator. Through focused questioning, attentive listening and insightful responses Judy helped me identify the deepest longing of my heart. One of the most powerful, life changing insights I received from our coaching sessions was the awareness that I need to be vigilant about doubts that keep me from doing what God has created me to do. Together we explored not only the things that rob me of my confidence, but also the strengths, skills and abilities that I bring to the people and situations in my circle of influence. God used Judy to move me into a new career path, one that I believe He prepared for me, and I am now coaching others into a discovery of how they can use their unique design in their careers, ministries and personal relationships."

"Judy has a natural coaching talent. She knows the right questions to ask -- questions that cause you to think and motivate you to ACT. She has a calm energy about her that inspires me to be a better person. Sometimes I come to our coaching sessions "in a muddle." With Judy's insight and assistance, I always leave the session no longer "muddled" and with a plan of action!"

"I found out a great deal about myself during my sessions with Judy. With her help I have become comfortable with my role. We all have different seasons in our lives and with Judy's help I am settling into this new season of my life and the activities I am involved in. I discovered a great deal about myself and I am refocusing myself to work on my strengths and to accept my weaknesses. Judy helped me to see what I couldn't see myself."

"I started working with Judy in order to help me define the direction and purpose in my life. After our sessions together not only do I feel affirmed about the decisions I’m making, but also I truly feel that it is God’s path for my life. Judy has been an encourager as well as a challenger throughout this process; a process that has lead me to feel at peace and in excitement for the next steps of my life."

"I would like to tell you what wonderful coaching sessions I'm having using Katie Brazelton's Conversations on Purpose for Women. These conversations have been truly inspiring, leading to realizations of God's purpose in my life.

Judy has helped me reflect upon my past and my present. Through her encouragement, I am seeing that God is leading me in a direction that glorifies Him by utilizing my newly discovered purpose to be a blessing to others.

After nearly a year of feeling lost and tired all the time, she has gently lead me to find out why I've been feeling this way. With her encouragement, I have reordered my life to fit in work time and rest time. I am more inspired to meet with God than I have been in quite awhile. What an amazing turnaround! I feel energized! I have found my purpose on God's earth and am excited about starting up a new career that will eventually give me more time to do what I've been called to do. If it hadn't been for her keen insights, I would probably still be stuck in a dark pit of despair.

Conversations with Judy are relaxed, yet always thought provoking. With her non-judgmental approach and uncanny ability to see what's really behind "life's issues," Judy has lead me to uncover truths about myself that will help me serve in a way that I never dared to dream. I am amazed!"

"I've started working with Judy, going through the book Conversations on Purpose for Women. It's been a great experience. Judy was a gentle and encouraging guide as I began the process of discovering myself and my purpose. I was a little worried that I would feel put on the spot or unsure how to answer some of the questions, but Judy made me feel very comfortable and the conversation came easily. She was a great encouragement to me, pointing out areas of strength in my personality and urging me to grow in these areas. She helped me to see myself from a little different perspective and encouraged me to think about how God sees me and values me. I have been thinking about the things we talked about and can't wait to continue the process. I know it will be challenging, but I'm excited about the purpose-filled intentional me that I can see developing in the future."

I am writing to let you know what a great experience I had doing a Life Plan weekend with Judy Turnbull. It was truly a time of insight and growth for me. Through all the different tools and activities Judy led me in, I was able to gain a clearer sense of how God has made me, how he has worked in my life, and how he can most effectively work through me to reach others. Doing these activities in an intense, 2-day time frame was helpful because I could really focus on what I was learning and see patterns in the things I discovered. Judy had a great plan for the weekend, had everything set up, and made me feel at home. She encouraged me and challenged me throughout the process, nudging me to look a little deeper and celebrating with me when I learned something new. I really appreciate her gift for seeing the potential in people and helping them to uncover it and put it in action. The Life Plan gave me momentum in my walk with God and my search for purpose. I'm excited to see where God leads next.

Judy Turnbull is a wonderful coach.  Judy instantly put me at ease.  I felt immediately drawn to Judy and able to open up to her about anything and everything.  She listens with poised expertise, and knows just how to direct the conversation to result in outcomes that are beneficial and productive.  She provides just enough direction to point to Jesus for the answers and helps to bring into the light the solutions deep with-in each of us.  Coaching with Judy is a blessed experience.

“My coaching experience with Judy was very helpful. Her probing questions and great listening led me to some incredible “light bulb” moments that gave clarity to my work and personal life. I also gained a greater appreciation for the coaching process. I can’t wait to learn more.”

"When it was mentioned to me that would be good to have some coaching, I wondered how it would work out. Mostly because I considered myself a quiet person and I wasn’t sure to talking to someone over the phone would be, especially someone that I didn’t know. To my surprise I was talking more than I thought!

One of the things I appreciated the most was the questions. I like to be challenge and Judy challenged me through questions, not telling me what to do, but helping me open my mind through questions. The “homework” was another thing I enjoyed because the coaching was going on also during the time in between phone calls. I liked that.

Judy did a great job encouraging me, which was what I needed at the time. I don’t remember ever having a personal cheerleader until I got my coaching with Judy."
