PRAISE FROM PAST TO PRESENT

"I met Nina in 2005 at a random women’s group, Diamond of the Soul. Nina was indeed the diamond that came out the group. I worked with Nina as a life coach in 2005, and several years after. These were extremely pivotal years in my life. Nina’s coaching came as true blessing. Nina comes to the table, sleeves rolled up, ready to work -- and she EXPECTS the same of you. It’s your life she’s helping to improve after all. Through Nina’s guidance, you learn to heighten your expectations of yourself. If you are someone who’s ready to breakthrough to excellence, willing to do the work, and tough enough to face your inner demons with honesty -- Nina could be the dynamite you need to shake up your existence. There will NOT be a lot of time wasted with her coaching. Nina has honed her skills of uncovering your passions first -- then identifying your key areas of resistance second. Nina will dig right to the root of issues, then help rip them out so they’re gone...not lingering. Results with Nina come fast. Bonus – you leave these sessions with tools you will carry with you for the rest of your life. I know that’s been true for me."

"Since meeting and working with Nina in the seventies, she has always been reliable, trustworthy, and supportive. As well as being the best friend I could ever hope to have, she has displayed her ability to guide, and make favorable suggestions, and, yes, find solutions that have helped make my life very pleasant. Over and above all Nina is a great communicator! Readily getting her point across while doing it with love, grace, and fulfillment. This is what makes her a wonderful person to have in one's camp because she is able and willing to help and loves what she does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

RETIRED CHEMIST

"I have known Nina Watare Kamwene since she walked into the college dorm as my new roommate in 1982. I quickly realized how lucky I was to have such a special person in my life. She always led by example, fearless in her determination to identify and reach her goals and overcome anything standing in her way. As a friend, she inspired me to explore my spirituality both inside and outside of organized religion, and her support in every respect has been a large and positive part of my life and by extension my family’s life. I was therefore delighted to see her launch a new career as a life coach and immediately became her first paying client. She had always demonstrated in so many different ways that she believed in me and everyone else whose life intersected hers, and this new relationship has enhanced her opportunities to do that. I am a professional career person. I know that she also had a long and successful professional career before she refocused on assisting others as a coach. Therefore, I appreciate her real life, practical approach as I turn my sights on what I am going to do to make a difference, add value and have an impact as I wind down one career and start the rest of my life. Since I am still practicing in my profession, I really like that she offers 90-day packages designed to jump start this process. We have already quickly pivoted from my initial goal to release some pandemic weight (yes, I have made good progress) to the larger issues. Thanks, Nina, and I look forward to your continued support and assistance as my life coach!"

CORPORATE LAWYER

"Nina is an amazing life coach. She is very empathic and professional. My sessions with her helped me truly move forward with life. She coached me on my family relationship as I am going through a very hard divorce. She taught me how to forgive, and release my kids and husband in peace. Nina assisted me in cleaning up my cup of toxicity from this situation. Now with a clean cup I fill it with love for myself and my children. She taught me if it occurs, it is indicated, and that all things are lessons I need to learn now."

"When I began working with Nina three months ago now, I knew I would never be satisfied going back to my previous career of 20 plus years, which I had faithfully held pre-COVID. I knew I needed some fresh ideas and new perspective on what an encore career could look like for me, and how to pursue it, with bills still rolling in for payment. Right from my first consultation with Mrs. Kamwene, I could tell she was a pro and that she had a system that would help me get the clarity and the confidence I needed, to successfully launch my new life. Despite being outside my comfort zone, and the stress I brought to our first conversations, Nina’s attentive and affirming communication style not only put me at ease, but also made me feel understood in a way I had never experienced before. She seemed to know exactly which thought-provoking question to ask at just the right time. As she listened deeply to my responses, it was as if new possibilities began percolating to the surface of my awareness. The language she used to review the different dimensions of my new-found options and strategies has been exceptionally motivating for me. It’s as if I’m having a regular private conversation with a more resourceful version of myself about my new life. The more I talk with her about it, the more equipped and empowered I get in the actions I’m taking to bring it all together for myself. I have never had anyone invest her level of focus, skill and creativity in understanding my vision. She goes one further, though. She has understood me and my new life picture so well, she’s effectively magnified the plans I was content to settle for, and inspired me do more for myself, which I’m super excited about! She has the kind of confidence in me that I know I can do it! Thanks, Nina, your ideas and assistance are worth their weight in gold!"

EXECUTIVE COACH

"I have known Nina Kamwene since 1982. I met her while taking a leadership course in Los Angeles. She was one of the group leaders at that time. I was able to observe her ability to encourage and assist others to move forward and beyond their perceived limitations. She became one of my clients for the work I was doing and during that time, I lost my partner of 20 years. She was able to support me to refocus my life in a meaningful way to move forward so that I continue making a difference in my life and others. She has an ability to understand and assist others to make a difference in achieving their goals."

MASSAGE THERAPIST

"I met amazing Mama Nina in Leadership Development Company in 2018. For me she is not only a great Leader, great Coach but also someone who makes great changes in any environment she is in. I will never forget the time I spend with her at my difficult times, and the daily messages she was sending to me over a year by bringing hope and strength into my life. There is so much to tell about this unique individual. 1. Nina has a big heart and beautiful soul. 2. If you are someone in need, you don't have to tell much about you, she feels you and has a clue how to help. 3. She is someone who can take your hand, walk with you step by step and help you to rise. 4. Very knowledgeable individual who is constantly working on her self development. 5. Wise lady with a great life and business experience. 6. I would call her a Master, because she is a master of understanding human problems and giving them the right solutions. 7. She is a true friend, who would do anything possible and impossible to help the friend in need. 8. Beautiful mother, wife and a human being overall, who has build a beautiful world around her. 9. Unconditional Love and Care, that's what anyone can expect from her."

INSURANCE AGENT

"Nina has been a dear friend and life support since the first day I met her in January of 2006. Throughout my health struggles and both physical and emotional support during surgery, she has been there as an invaluable counselor. During the financial downturn she aided me with her assistance by taking care of my pets, so that I might travel to the east coast where I was able to find work. She has also been a true friend during relationship difficulties as well as a sound voice of reason."

ARCHITECT

"I have known Nina for over two decades, has advised me through many crossroads, decisions about career, graduate school, love, childbirth and child rearing. At every turn I was met with her depth of experience in all these realms. She has a way of making me feel clear by talking it through, no matter how hard or contradictory ideas may seem. Nina helps me find the lost threads that finish the whole cloth. Perhaps her most precious gift is her experience of power; because she grew up in Kenya among powerful women, she does not make assumptions common to advisors in the United States. Nina came of age without internalizing the often pervasive racism and sexism: her eyes see me as a beautiful, unstoppable being. Nina is brave and ethical, and walks her talk in pursuit of her passion and purpose in life. Nina may not remember this but after giving birth she taught me to meditate in a way that helped me heal energetically when the doctors all said my pain had no physical cause. Whenever I am lost, not sure of which direction to turn, a conversation with Nina illuminates the path there all along. Perhaps no better testament for Nina's electric personality, my son, now in college, on his own accord also seeks Nina's coaching!"

COLLEGE PROFESSOR

"Awesome! Nina guides with symbols as well as words. She gave me a bracelet from her pilgrimage to Compostela. When I wear it, I connect to her stories about the journey. It’s good to remember we have many people that came before us, they also made brave decisions that guide us today."

~ ROLANDO C. ~

COLLEGE STUDENT

"I would like to express my gratitude to Nina for the insight she was able to provide me during our coaching sessions. Nina has the ability to make people see things from a different perspective. Nina handed me many great tools. I was able to maneuver through many areas in my life. I would highly recommend Nina to anyone looking to move forward in their life dreams and goals in an independent empowering way. I really enjoyed and appreciated Nina’s time; her approach is so encouraging yet direct (no beating around the bush). Honesty is the best policy. Nina has lots of wisdom in many areas about life. She explains her knowledge with lots of patience and in a way where you understand the deepness of any situation. I was always saying WOW I get it. It makes so much sense. Nina is always so supportive. She reminds you of the bigger vision even when you lose track of it yourself. Her no BS approach is what we all need to accomplish any goal in our life. I couldn’t be more thankful for her time, patience & knowledge. I guarantee you are choosing the best life coach in the universe."

An understanding of the human condition; its strengths and weakness. 6. No stranger to hardship and setting goals. 7. Can reach deep inside her soul to get guidance and balance in life decisions. 8.

HOME APPRAISER

"I met Nina in 1978 and was impressed by her high energy and creativity to solve difficult situations. I admired her strong interpersonal skills, her motivation to get me to action, and her passion for my success and well-being. I remembered a time when we were participating in a leadership training program and I had to write my goals. She advised me to write my goals and objectives in specific, measurable, and realistic time frames. I achieved my goal of cutting sugar from my diet in 90 days. Nina started coaching me in January of 2021 when I had decided to overcome my fears and take the leap into a new Journey of my life. She assisted me with excellent questions and asked me to write my perceived Obstacles. In our coaching sessions she provided support, encouragement, and created an action plan to the process of building the foundation for my vision. I’ m happy to say that I achieved the confidence to overcome the fears that were holding me back. Thank so much Nina for the time we spent together and for the progress you helped me make in my life. You’re very enthusiastic, personable, empathetic, have a great sense of humor and patience. I highly recommend Nina as a Life Coach."
