Harvey Goldberg
Chair of Washing D.C. Vistage Groups

“Nikki – I just wanted to say “thank you” for the Peak Performance program you presented to us – UTI – as a company in 2003-4. It has had a tremendous influence on my life in so many ways. I refer to your wisdom periodically to others, and have reviewed the information you gave to us frequently. I hope you know how far reaching your program has been. As with most things, I forget about my focus and triggers, which requires me to look at myself again and again. My key word is trust, so when I remember how it colors my outlook, I rethink what I am doing.  When having meetings, I still use that sheet defining what my intention and what the best possible outcome could be, which guides me in planning what to so. You were amazing! After all this time you are still influencing me – in a very good way. Thank you for imparting the wisdom, and in having the patience to help us use it every day.

Best Regards,

“So if I had to describe your practice in one word, what came to my mind was “bridge” – you offered a tangible link between folks striving for improved quality of life and a large body of philosophical and self-improvement teaching that is great in theory, but nearly impossible to apply in practice.

“Genius is taking very complex phenomena and making it simple and accessible.  The Starquest model does just that.  We have learned how we can sabotage ourselves from experiencing the success and joy that is within our potential.  More importantly, Starquest has given us the tools to help us improve our behavior from self-sabotage toward peak performance.  My business, customers, and personal relationships have all benefited from what we have learned through Starquest’s coaching.”
