What my coaching and consulting clients say about me and my work.

Coaching

"Engaging with a professional coach as a creative professional presents a unique challenge. Many coaches approach one’s professional and creative lives as distinct entities, but this dichotomy does not reflect the lived reality of most writers, artists, designers and creative entrepreneurs. The intersection of creative output and  earning a paycheck naturally introduces complexities that can obscure professional objectives and blur the boundaries between work and downtime. Swati Singh — with her nuanced understanding of these dynamics and incisive curiosity — provided invaluable guidance in helping me navigate this intricate balance. Through her methodical and thoughtful approach, I was able to align my creative ambitions with my financial goals, maintaining both without compromise. For creative professionals seeking a coach who comprehends the complexities of their world, I wholeheartedly recommend Swati." – Ashlie Stevens, Food Editor, Writer, and Audio Producer

"Swati was an invaluable sounding board for me when I made a transition from K-12 education to Leadership Development in a non-profit setting. As I worked to find a path that was meaningful to me, she offered invaluable insights from her own experience that helped keep me focused on what I was moving toward, rather than against in a difficult transition time." – Amy W., Learning and Development Specialist

"Swati has an extraordinary ability to offer fresh perspectives on the intersections of work, life, and family dynamics, which was tremendously helpful as I navigated a challenging family business transition. Her insights helped me reframe this period in my life and gain a broader perspective on the future. I admire her entrepreneurial knowledge, her dedication to empowering young people, and her remarkable creativity in envisioning the future of work. Swati has also become a trusted partner on writing projects, helping me think through ideas and gain clarity. Her creative, multi-dimensional approach to both life and work is truly inspiring, and I am grateful to have her as a colleague and coach." Karin D., Family Business Owner

"Swati highlighted some options for moving a project forward that really didn't occur to me! Her insight and fresh perspective were so valuable and she is exceptionally easy to connect with. Her enthusiasm for helping/supporting others is palpable and I feel so lucky to have found her." – Tara S., Professor

"Swati is such a genuine and inspiring person. As a coach, she pushes me to be my best in all aspects of my life and genuinely cares so much about every person that she meets. She has such an incredible ability to focus your ideas into actionable steps and makes you feel (realize!) you can accomplish anything you set your mind to." – Chandler Claire, Photographer & Entrepreneur

Consulting

"Swati’s expertise in K-12, higher education, and workforce development is an invaluable—and in my experience—a unique asset. Her ability to understand and bridge these fields enables her to assist clients in designing innovative, relevant programs that prepare students for meaningful careers. She fosters collaboration, aligns programs with industry needs, and helps organizations strategically leverage funding opportunities. As the landscape of education and work continues to shift, having a consultant who understands these nuances and can act as a strategic advisor is a transformative resource." – Joseph Stark, Regional Apprenticeship Director

"I am proud to share my experience working alongside Swati as a high school administrator. We hired Swati to work with our struggling high schools in Math. She had an important position and that was supporting and guiding seniors to graduation. From the very start, it was clear that our collaboration was driven by a deep commitment to student success. Together, we developed tailored programs that addressed the unique challenges faced by our at-risk students. Swati provided academic support but also fostered a nurturing environment where students felt valued and understood. This made it possible to reach students in meaningful ways, breaking down barrers to graduation. I wholeheartedly endorse the work we've done together." – Yvonne Trujillo Wolfe, High School Administrator
