I have been in a coaching partnership with Peter for some months now. If I was not convinced about the power and effectiveness of coaching before, I absolutely am now. Peter’s calm and considered voice, his deep empathy, his positive energy, the way he asks questions that point directly at the core, and the space he provides for me to explore my options and ultimately feel empowered to act – these are undoubtedly indicators of a great coach. I have consistently looked forward to coaching sessions with Peter, because I know that afterwards I will have a sense of clarity and easiness about whatever topic I choose to bring to the session.

Peter is an exceptional coach, something I did not even know I needed. Our sessions are so powerful. His ability to help me unpack what is holding me back and explore my potential is founded in his incredible listening skills, powerful questioning, and gentle guidance through my own thoughts and process. He connects so genuinely and brings all of himself to each session. I especially appreciate how he regularly has a resource to share with me that is related to our session.

Peter is a skillful and professional coach. He will hold space for your explorations with a genuinely kind heart and no judgment. His insightful questions and warm presence create a safe place to uncover and delve into even the deeper corners of myself, which has led to surprising and fulfilling personal AND professional growth. Peter is also truly a wealth of resources and connections, should you want to explore something further on your own. I highly recommend his coaching expertise!

I think I will never forget my first coaching session with Peter. His presence, sensibility to listen, open mindset and way of asking powerful questions created a very particular space to me to look and discover my issue at the time. Time has shown that the answers I found in the session were very intuitive and deep. These realizations have guided my way to create my own business and they have supported my own wellbeing and balance immensely.
The sessions that followed during several months have moreover been extremely valuable for my progress -both work wise and personally. I have left them with clear mind, feeling light and enthusiastic about the actions that I had planned to take. Many times, I have been surprised how big shift in the situation could happen only in one hour. I have also felt supported in between the session when putting my plan into action, as I had my coach to whom to talk in the end of the week.
I feel lots of gratitude for having had this opportunity to be supported by so compassionate and skilled coach like Peter. He both supported and challenged with fantastic way. I would recommend Peter to anyone looking for a coach, who can support them in making a real transformation in their life.

I was fortunate to be coached by Peter Tavernise. Coincidentally, my sessions with Peter happened during a transitional and very emotionally charged period for me. The circumstance was related to my professional and personal life. Peter was able to put me in a centered and receptive frame of mind almost instantly, regardless of how difficult of a day I had prior to the session.
I enjoyed that the coaching sessions had a two way approach. Peter regularly checked in with me on how I felt and adjusted the rest of the session accordingly. Peter is also very receptive and intuitive. Our sessions were never the same. They had different tone every time. Sometimes they were energetic and action-focused, when I was planning next steps or needed clarity, and sometimes they were very emotional.
Peter had the competencies to handle any circumstance and the emotional intelligence to sense my state of mind at the start of the session and guided me in the most gentle and caring way.
Thank you Peter.
Let us pledge reciprocity with the world.
