“Paige Ritchie conducted an eight-week small business coaching course that was the catalyst for transforming the scope and approach of my business—including changing the company name. Her practical and thought-provoking coaching sessions helped clarify my vision and motivated me to take those sometimes difficult next steps toward progress. Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, High Integrity”

Paige has helped me gain awareness of my strengths and values. She has also helped me gain insight into preconceived notions of what’s behind a “should” and start listening to and honoring my own abilities and strengths in a broader range. Through my work with Paige I have had the courage and confidence to blaze the trail of starting my own business, Buttons and Pears, create my own designs, consult with experienced designers, and work successfully with manufacturers. Now I’m up and running! She has helped me open up little tiny chinks of ideas and possibilities that I hadn’t ventured to pay attention to and adapt my expectations to incorporate things that are important to me ultimately allowing me to be a better person to myself, my career and my marriage.”
Susan Norris, Owner of Buttons and Pears
“Working with Paige Ritchie has been a great experience. Therapy has it’s moments, but ultimately fails in answering the forward-looking questions: what are you going to do? How are you going to do it? How will you measure your progress and know when it’s happened? Paige helps with those, empowering and challenging you to reach within and figure out where solutions are, and why they aren’t happening, if they are within your scope of influence. Her work reminds me of yoga – it derives both from coaching, from challenge, and from inner perspective, and leaves one feeling invigorated, challenged, and ready to accomplish big things. My life was in a promising yet traumatic state when I worked with Paige – I was trying to move beyond a difficult divorce and repair my relationship with my children, finish my first book, rebuild my life, grow a business, and build a new home! She helped me break the main things down into more manageable tasks and get things done. Paige’s coaching was like a motivational spa.”

“”My experience working with Paige has shown me the true value of working with a coach. Before I began working with Paige I was having trouble trusting in myself that my plan for my business was going to work. I’ve had a strong idea to build my business but I seemed to be stuck in a phase where I wasn’t taking consistent daily actions to work towards making things happen. Through my work with Paige I have explored different ways of reaching my goals and reached a higher level of comfort about the pace of my journey. She has a great talent at keeping me focused on my strengths and reinforcing my confidence in my chosen path. I believe having a personal coach will play a role in the rest of my life as I have learned to trust myself and my instincts — and I have been watching with amazement as things just seem to be unfolding for me. Paige’s approach to coaching is very professional and I always felt comfortable that our work together will remain confidential. Her compassion and her love of coaching impress me most.”
