Stories from other Coaches, Therapists, Executives, and Visionaries

If you're a coach, therapist, or strategy/visioning executive, learning how to connect your clients to their core intention--their raison d'être; why they're on the planet...not just in their heads, but in their hearts--is a powerful skill. The stories below illustrate benefits, and also will tell you more about the training and workshop experience. 

And if you're just curious to learn more about your own Core Intention, these stories will help too! 

I’ve participated in several online learning experiences. Mark’s is unique: his skillful facilitation and interactive program gave me the most connection with the material, other participants, and the application to my life. I particularly loved the “Time Machine” where I playfully explored my true desires. From that experience and articulating my core intention, I’ve been able to re-align my vocational practice and personal lifestyle to match my inner truth. Thanks Mark!

I walked into Mark's Anchoring to Core Intention workshop expecting to learn something, but I burst out of it powerfully changed. The environment felt safe enough for me to choose a big issue. The specificity of naming what was painful to me around this issue was freeing and energizing. And from there, the great wheel of transformation began to turn! Before I knew it, I was identifying ways I wanted to feel instead, and then stepping so fully into a fleshed-out vision of what my life COULD be like that my consciousness began to awaken in a whole new way. My body happily re-aligned itself with a new understanding of what had been holding me back, and how good it could feel to internally re-organize and surge forward! By the time I got home that night, I was in a completely different place on the inside, and I watched, amazed, as parts of me stepped forward and navigated the critical conversations in my life, within myself and among family members. This brought me to an entirely new level of peace and a new sense of agency in my own life. Suffice it to say, I have been using the worksheet from this experience with my Life Coaching clients ever since. Watching they way this new exploratory energy fills their faces with hope is worth its weight in gold!

"As a psychotherapist and coach I value tools that help my clients not just understand but truly manifest the changes they desire. Mark's Anchoring to Core Intention℠ teaches a model that provides just that. In addition to the valuable coaching tools to use with my clients, the training also provided a personal experience of clarifying my gifts, talents, and goals and started me on a path to manifesting! Mark's personalized support and the collaborative group interactions allowed for practicing the model and exploring possibilities for using it in different settings with different client populations. What I most deeply appreciated and was most energized by is the connection Mark's model opens to Core Self."

"Anchoring to Core Intention℠ is amazingly powerful and unique. It's releasing blocks in me that had been burdens for years. I’ve never experienced anything like it—not just the results, but how fast yet gentle it is. And as a former ​Director of John Gray's Mars Venus Institute​, and creator of a coach training program, I’ve seen a lot! I’m really looking forward to Mark’s course so I can bring this tool to my clients and students, too."

"​As a veteran coach, I am always looking for tools and practices to help my clients accelerate their results. Anchoring to Core Intention℠ is all that and more. Mark's expert and passionate guidance makes the learning challenging, rewarding, practical, and fun. It is easy to align with other coaching modalities. Discovering this method helped me zero in on my gifts, expand my practice, and most importantly guide my clients to get clearer and move steadily toward fuller expression of their purpose on the planet.

If you get a chance to study with Mark, leap for it. You'll be thrilled by the experience and his personal support." 

--Tom Rosenak, CEO, DiamondMind Enterprises LLC

"Anchoring to Core Intention℠ was stimulating and fun.  My background is in education and Internal Family systems, both of which form the foundation of my current work as a Self Support Mentor. Mark’s planning and organization skills were excellent. The class size was perfect and his pacing was great; he assessed our progress continually and adjusted his approach to fit our individual needs. Mark works with confidence and generosity. I came in a bit skeptical.  He met my questions head-on but with lightheartedness and acceptance. 

I was hoping that I would learn how to combine Anchoring to Core Intention℠ and Internal Family Systems principles; Mark showed me how naturally the two fit together, the Anchoring process highlighting  personal strengths and IFS awareness supporting parts that might become anxious in new learning situations. I use the two approaches together all the time now. It’s easy to develop a flow that produces visible results very quickly. I highly recommend taking Mark’s course and experimenting with Anchoring to Core Intention℠ in your practice."
