Janet Ong Zimmerman, Other - Expert

I took a few months off from boys. Then in the fall, I decided to get back on the horse and went online. I met a guy but he wasn't really my type. Then I met another guy, Ron, who lives in Vancouver B.C. We've talked everyday for 4 months and just last weekend he came out to visit me for the first time and we hit it off. I really like how we were able to take time to get to know each other a little before meeting physically. Had we been in the same city, I might made my usual mistake of rushing into things. I'm excited about the possibilities. But not rushing into the future. Rather, I'm staying in the present and enjoying it.

My feminine side has blossomed, if I may say so. After a few weeks, he could not believe how nice I was and positive. I owe some of that to you. I've tried my best to find the positive in every situation no matter how difficult or sad. I've also cut back on immediately debating an opinion. Instead, I'll respond, "that's an interesting point of view." I've even rubbed off on Ron a little. I find that he looks for the positive now. And he'll also rephrase his opinions in a kinder way instead of just saying, "You're wrong and I'm right."

I find that I'm not teenage-girl excited about this guy, but rather calm. I really like him and like how things are so easy and effortless. I like that he is very
open with who he is and a great communicator. I suspect it helps that he is older. We'll see how things go. My only concern is that I could appear to be too
nurturing. So I'm trying to find a balance. It's a little difficult because my immediate reaction when someone has a problem or needs something, is to help however
I can. It'll be fine. Often I think, "Wow, I could missed out on this guy because I was so focused on Jose." This person is much more aligned with the type of person I'd like to share my life with. The distance isn't ideal, but he is open to moving here and I am open to moving there if we head in the direction of marriage.

I've practiced more self love and it's been great. I can notice when I'm judging. I notice it and let it go. I still have my moments, but overall, I'm in a better
place. I still struggle with the weight loss. I was doing good, but then fell off the wagon. It's quite the challenge, but one day it will click. I just take it one meal at a time.

I hope that all is well with you and that your business is thriving. I still receive your newsletters and enjoy reading them."

Janet was also helpful in helping me to identify my top passions and to focus on what I want as opposed to what I don't want. I will strive to make future relationship decisions based on my passions.

Janet was calm, centered and insightful. I enjoyed working with her immensely and highly recommend her." - Dolores Lara 

Through Janet’s coaching, I realized that I must have a positive attitude and internalize in my core that I deserve the best. Sharing with Janet so many personal issues about my past relationships helped me realized that I need to be honest with myself and speak from my heart. My confidence level has changed tremendously.

In my first coaching session, I attempted to analyze everything. Janet, however, gave me the confidence to open up and see clearly what it is that my heart desires. By the third session, I was relaxed and knew exactly what I needed in my love life. Janet was not only was a coach, but a person who gave me resources: she recommended a book, “the work,” and to meditate to be more peaceful and clear.

An experience that I would always cherish is that she taught me to speak from my heart, and even though it is challenging, when I put this into practice, my relationships overall became more enjoyable and less dramatic.

Janet is an excellent listener, excellent communicator, and her soothing manner would make anybody feel comfortable. I highly recommend Janet Ong as a relationship coach to women who desire to have better relationships." - Rebecca G.
