“I have been coaching with Mark Semple on and off now for about nine months. Though I am not in direct marketing, which is Mark’s area of concentration, I am in Information Technology and wishing to move on from that career of 23 years to another career that I will be passionate about. That is Mark’s life experience as well—he is moving on from a career in Information Technology to this new career he is passionate about—Life coaching. So, we have a shared viewpoint and a shared ideal to find a career that fulfills us in every way. Mark has been extremely helpful to me in this endeavor. I have taken it baby step by baby step. He has helped me identify what is great and not so great about my current career, and what my areas of interest are and those things are guiding me down a path to a new career that I will be passionate about. Mark has done this through conversation, recommendation of publications, suggestions of journaling, taking care of myself, identifying my current and long term goals, and creating a vision statement for myself. Some of those items can be difficult to initiate, especially when they are done as if I have already achieved the goals, but when I write it, or speak it as if I am living it, it is very empowering and exciting and I have Mark to thank for that. I recently up-ended my life: left my adopted hometown, my job, sold my house, moved to a small town with my children, married into a new family, and began a new job. With Mark’s help, I was able to do that and see all the positives regarding it, and most importantly, how those positives come together to help me achieve my future goals. I am impressed with Mark’s abilities in his newfound career. I can hear the passion in his voice when he speaks to me. I would recommend Mark’s guidance to anyone.” Deanna Hookaway
