“We’re married and we work together. You know the drill. It’s sometimes fun, often rough. Blair helped us first define, then distinguish our roles as spouses from our roles as co-owners of our small business. We learned what was worth fighting for (and how to do it respectfully) and let go of the fights that were just leftover frustration from home to work and vice versa. Blair either saved our business or our marriage . . . probably both.”

— Mike R., Co-owner of a printing firm


“The value we got out of working with Blair was really centered in her amazing ability to listen, synthesize our expression of values and goals into practice, then repeat that back to us in a format that we could act on. The direction we suspected we should go in was re-learned and affirmed, and we gained both confidence in ourselves and a level of acceptance with the uncertainty that comes with growing a business.
