Visionary Success Stories

Here’s what True North clients have to say

 
Emily Duffelmeyer

I feel a HUGE weight off my shoulders

I didn’t realize the stress and uncertainty that was building up.

This process has been more challenging, more personal and more rewarding than I imagined. I did not realize the stress and uncertainty that was building up in my business (and life!) because I did not have guiding principles, a driving purpose and a clear Vision. I feel a HUGE weight off my shoulders. This work is not frivolous – it is crucial.
— Emily Duffelmeyer, owner of Jean Jean Vintage
 
Visioning has been the most life changing thing.

I grew up in a small town in Alabama and now I’m checking my passport to see if I have enough places for stamps. The learning management system I wrote about in my Vision is now being used all over the world and I’m traveling for global impact. And now I take four(!) unplugged family vacations a year, instead of continuing to just work, work, work.

None of that would have happened if I hadn’t found this process!
— Meaghan Chitwood, COO of InHome Therapy, Franchise Owner and Executive Director of BNI Alabama
 
I’ve now done Visioning twice with Lois. I went in more than a little skeptical, but she really was able to show me the value and power of Visioning and how it can change my life. Now a few years down the road, I’ve gone back and done the self-paced online course.

Doing a self-paced program was very useful for me, as it allowed me to pause and consider more at my own pace.

Do yourself a favor, take the plunge!
— Benji Sawyer, Co-founder, Sawyer Solutions

A life-changing experience

I really cannot recommend Lois highly enough.

To say that this is a life-changing experience, if you let it, is trite, but oh so accurate.

 
Amanda Grossman is a Visionary Leader

This process was different

For the first time, I actually feel like I have a "put-together" Vision to drive my decision-making, and look forward to.

I’ve always cringed at Vision exercises. It seemed like everyone else had a really great Vision, but I didn’t. I had things that I wanted to do, of course, and lots of tasks that I wanted to complete. But nothing to really tie it all together.

That’s why I loved taking Lois’ program and creating a Vision. I put in the work, and for the first time, I actually feel like I have a “put-together” Vision to drive my decision-making (and to look forward to) over the next five years.

Become a Visionary

 
Lois gives you the ability to look back at the past, look towards the future and channel your energies into one concentrated effort that will ensure you’ll get where you want to go.

I’ve been feeling stuck for some time, uncertain of how to initiate change and visualize a better path. The modules in this course have been extremely helpful in igniting my passion to propel forward. I have confidence now to believe that I can lead a more satisfying and influential personal life as well as move into a career that fulfills me wholly. Lois provided wonderful feedback, support, and encouragement as I navigated the waters of self discovery.
— Dr. Katie Schlein
 
Accelerate Your Vision Course really helped me get clear on who I am to my core. The exercises were very detailed in helping me understand what I need to be pursuing based on my core values and mission. Overall, the class was most helpful in solidifying my mission and how I offer myself to the world. It gave me a lot of confidence to continuing to pursue my life work aligned with my mission. The class is excellent overall and Lois has a way of breaking down the information easily into a cohesive whole. She also gives each student feedback personally and is very much engaged in helping each student succeed. I would highly recommend this course.
— Rebecca Romano | Certified Transformational Wellness & Life Coach
 
Going through the visioning workshop was so powerful and eye-opening for me! Many of the concepts I had previously thought about before, but not on such a deeply defined level. Also, the journey Lois took me on was so clear and each step would build upon the next. When I completed writing my vision, not only was I excited to share it with others, I also couldn’t stop talking about the actual process of getting there! I wanted everyone I knew to create their own vision!
— Colleen Sims | Family Life Educator
“Lois is one of the best facilitators I have ever worked with. She is articulate, passionate, and focused to ensure clients produce a vision that is unique to them, and one that they can implement and track. Her visioning process is thorough and brings clarity to both personal and professional contexts. It was a joy not only participating in the workshop, but also watching Lois work and seeing a true visioning expert walk out their life’s purpose.”
— Jason Vance | President, BubbleUP Marketing Corp.

Thank you Nauticus!

The revelations from each exercise where most welcome & had been hard to put on paper before this course. Highly recommend to follow the course exactly as directed by Lois for breakthrough results! It’s been a great self discovery program.
— Eliza Bulz
The visioning process with Lois has been incredibly freeing. I now have a clear path to follow to reach my goals. I love that I also have Lois to guide me along the way to make sure that I stay the course. So happy that I took the plunge!
— Polly Brothers | Regional Vice President, Arbonne International
Simply put, Lois not only has you Clarify Your Vision but she has you understand the YOU that has been hiding in the shadows and gives you the courage to be centre stage on the life you’ve always wanted.
— Holly Wyse | Copywriter
If I had only one word to describe my experiences with Lois, I would use “transformative.” I found myself at a professional crossroads and in need of formative plan. Lois and I worked together for 24 intense hours. Understanding the “who,” “how” and “why” of my journey to that point helped clarify where I did and perhaps, more importantly, where I did not want to go next.

With Lois’s guidance, I created my first authentic, memorialized, “vision.” It has been just over a year since I completed my first 5 year vision. I have already achieved some of the most significant milestones that I once thought to be just dreams. My trajectory completely changed at the conclusion of that process because I became empowered to know what is an opportunity and what is just a distraction disguised as one. Working with Lois is something you can’t afford NOT to do, both personally and professionally.
— Elyse Wilson, CFE | COO, Medical Financial Services, Inc.
We were able to share things we had long been wanting to share with the team through the process and now that we’re all aligned it will help infuse more positivity throughout the organization.
— Hardik Parekh | CEO, Searce
When starting Clarify Your Vision online, I was a little skeptical that I would accomplish any results with a self-paced course. I was wrong. I discovered things I had in me that I didn’t know here there and rediscovered pieces of me that were put away for a good while. I highly recommend this course -it has truly helped me find my momentum again as I clarified my vision
— Lee Drozak | Web Marketing Strategist & WordPress Designer
Before meeting Lois, I had no idea what this concept of “visioning” was or what it would mean to me moving forward. Following a weekend of mental gymnastics, self discovery and guided focus, I had a new understanding of my direction. Being a business owner, I have never been one to “waste” time on conceptual thinking that had no immediate and measurable benefit to my direct work. Lois pointed out that until I knew the direction I wished to go, my efforts to get there were wasted.

I spent my days under Lois’s guidance and expertise developing my own vision both in my business life and my personal life. I came away from my time with Lois ready to recommit to my business, my family and my goals. I had measurable outcomes, timelines, and a list of people willing to help me. Her energy, positivity and creativity helped my entire team. I cannot recommend Lois enough. If you have the opportunity to meet or work with Lois, you will see, as I did, how developing your vision and generating that clarity can be life changing.
— Derrick Meyer | President, Digital Link
