Kai worked with me to find my voice and develop my ability to speak authentically and courageously… Through my coaching sessions, I became more self-aware and body-aware. Feeling more grounded and centered, I was able to advocate for myself more effectively both at work and in my personal relationships. As a result, I was able to create more space for life and feel more comfortable expressing myself. I am forever grateful for having the opportunity to work with Kai.

I look back on the experience and can’t imagine how I managed to make it through 30 years in business without the skills I learned with Kai. In my current role I work in an intensely collaborative environment where relationships are key, and didn’t realize how much my prior experience in large organizations and start-ups was coloring my leadership style. Working with Kai has helped me develop practical skills for empathy and emotional intelligence, and expanded my awareness of, and compassion for, both myself and the people I work with.

Kai helped me realize that change was possible in areas I thought were a permanent part of who I was. I drastically improved my awareness and skill with difficult work conversations which had a positive impact on both my management abilities and personal relationships. Kai also helped me uncover core values that helped me understand what was truly important to me.

Kai Mantsch has literally changed my life. Instead of feeling like I’m fleeing a runaway train, I feel like I’m driving the train. My life has been given back to me! I wholeheartedly endorse this incredible person’s endeavor to help people identify their goals and reach their true potential. It’s an amazing process that I will never regret.

After running a startup as a co-founder and one of the main implementors for over a decade, I was feeling burnt out and uncertain of my direction. My time working with Kai helped me get clarity on what choices I was making that led to particular outcomes. With the guidance and tools Kai offered, I learned to trust my own insight more and to make more intentional decisions to consciously shape the path I wanted going forward. The foundational work we did led to additional revelations as I continued, and I can definitely say I'm both more productive and more balanced in my approaches to work and life as a result of our work together.

Kai is a multi-talented master for public speaking and storytelling. He provided a lot of clarity and insight when I was preparing for a pitch as a grantee advocate. From structuring content to coaching me on delivery techniques such as rhythm, timing, and ways of expressing, he gave me relevant and effective feedback to shape my final presentation. With Kai's help, I was able to secure funding for an incredible African non-profit.

Kai understands my voice and takes my multi dimensional thinking and weaves it into a coherent narrative that everyone can access. He is very good at clarifying end goals and thought processes on complex topics.

You had a very profound impact on my life. You really helped me discover a growth edge that I wasn’t even aware of, and you helped me frame the next step in my own personal evolution. To top it off, the simplicity with which you framed everything and the practices you gave me were powerful. I’m discovering a new way of being within myself and carrying myself in the world. I can sense that I’ve grown deeply, and I want to say a big THANK YOU to you.
