Testimonials from our valued clients

 We are proud to share their words, demonstrating the impact of our work with various people. 

I reached out to Karolina several months back when I was feeling overwhelmed with many things going on in my life. Little did I know at the time, that she would truly be the support system I didn’t know I would need at what ended up being the toughest time in my life when I lost my mother unexpectedly. Karolina has helped me to remain organized, keep stress levels down, and has given me “homework assignments” that have been beneficial in my journey. She has tailored each session to where I’m at that day, has gently helped me push me out of my comfort zone, and has helped me find my own clarity in my future goals and who I am. She’s been exactly what I’ve needed to remain grounded and not going off the “stress deep end.” I highly recommend Karolina and H

When I first met Karolina, I was admittedly a bit skeptical about life coaches in general. However, she completely changed my perspective. Karolina has a remarkable ability to help you uncover new ways of looking at life and equip you with the tools to manage challenges effectively. Her guidance came at a time when I was navigating several personal issues, and her support was truly transformative. Karolina is not only highly skilled and insightful but also a kind, empathetic, and intelligent person. If you’re seeking professional and meaningful life guidance, I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

“Working with Karolina has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I highly recommend her to anyone that is dealing with the stresses of starting or pursuing a new career path. She gave me the structure and accountability I needed to take concrete steps and tackle my biggest fears head-on. If I could give her more than five stars, I would!

” I chose Karolina as a life coach / counselor. When I arrived I was stressed and worried about my marriage and business. I was frustrated and a bit angry. I was surprised how she understood my problems so well and had instant solutions for them. She was so helpful on a variety of topics. She provided growth material like worksheets and why I should do them to help bring clarity to my specific problems. Every time we met I felt like she was a true expert helping provide the guidance in needed. She is a top notch professional.”

Business Owner

“Karolina at Help to Grow Institute has been very helpful to me! As the founder and president of Annie’s Angels Memorial Fund, a local charity, there are a lot of moving parts all the time. Karolina has helped me clear the fog, select the important action items, and act on those instead of chasing squirrels. I highly recommend Help to Grow Institute.”

Founder of Annie's Angels Memorial Found

“A few months ago I was feeling very “stuck” – professionally, personally, and spiritually. I was letting my fears of uncertainty and failure keep me from making any significant changes in my life, and so I felt like I was living my life on autopilot – doing the same general things day in and day out and experiencing little joy and fulfillment. I was encouraged by a family member to look into life coaching to possibly help me overcome the fears and thoughts that were keeping me stuck where I was and to provide me with some practical steps to get out of the rut I was in. I found Karolina through a simple Google search and decided to sign up for a free consultation after reading so many positive reviews of her work and feeling like her services would be a good fit for the challenges I was experiencing. I felt a great assurance and connection with Karolina during our consultation, so I signed up for her 6-session coaching program. We worked largely on my professional goals but she gave me great advice and resources regarding my personal goals as well. Her use of bio-hacking techniques, visualization, and encouragement to listen to my “gut” feelings were the most impactful tools she provided to me. These strategies allowed me to make one big life decision and I will continue to utilize them when wanting to make changes in any area of my life. I highly recommend Karolina if you are feeling similarly to how I was a few months ago. She takes the time to truly understand your goals and treats each of them with importance. If you’re feeling “stuck”, she can help give you the confidence and resources you need to start moving your life in the direction you want without feeling overwhelmed. Thank you, Karolina!

As a small business owner, life can be challenging at times. A Help to Grow Institute has helped me navigate and maintain work work-life balance between my personal and professional life. While I was always of the mindset that I can figure most anything out on my own, I will say that my wiser self has learned that getting support from those who are trained to negotiate these sorts of hurdles is a great help. Simple rules taught through application, the 10/10/10 rule, I use daily. Deeper dives into understanding what my Why is helps keep me focused on the important stuff. Trying to become a better husband and father, I have had to learn to listen better and to ask questions more often. We are not all on the same page, and sometimes it’s simply having someone help you understand how to build those tools that we have not used in a long time. I wanted to recommend Karolina and her team to others who also struggle at times to navigate the crazy path of life.

In my first session with Karolina I immediately felt like I was moving forward in a positive direction. She is knowledgeable and straightforward, explaining concepts in an easy to understand way. Her thoughtful questioning allowed me to gain insight about what roadblocks are keeping me from my goals and aspirations. She was able to start unraveling my “tangle” and put me at ease, giving me confidence to examine my situation and start to make meaningful decisions. Karolina takes the time to really get to know her clients and understand their needs, and so is able to provide relevant and concise feedback and direction. I left our first meeting with a much clearer vision of what direction to take my business and realistic steps to take to achieve my goals.
