Testimonials from Shelley Stile's Clients
Shelley has a gift for helping people who are stuck in any stage of the divorce process and want to move forward. She is warm and wise.
When you are “in divorce”, it is like being in a tornado. The pain makes it hard to get your bearings and to have faith that you will get out and will arrive SOMEWHERE safe and sound. In many ways, you feel as though you are struggling for your very life. Shelley is your GUIDE. She listens very carefully, has practical suggestions, supports you, but most importantly she lights a candle in your tunnel and helps you FEEL your way out of the mess. You can trust her 100% and she will not let you down. Forget spending money on “quick fixes” , sign up for coaching, and commit to really creating your new life out of the ashes. I did coaching for about 6 months, and it helped me more than I can possibly express. I am deeply grateful to Shelley.

Shelley Stile makes all the difference. She manages to inspire, motivate, support and comfort with genuine empathy, a sense of humor and great purpose. Her wealth of knowledge and insight is enriched by her professional and personal experience. A successful divorce goes far beyond a fair and just legal resolution. For me it involves acceptance, clarity and the desire and ability to live life with perspective, new energy, health and joy. Shelley’s coaching will enable you to achieve this. She is a must have for every divorcing and newly divorced woman.

I was a victim of divorce, now I am VICTORIOUS over divorce! Now I love living my life. Thank you Shelley!
Shelley has been my beacon of hope in a very disheveled life – a life going through divorce and all the confusion, grief, fear and anger that brings. And oh yes – it brings more emotions to be sure – but it would take too long to list. I would often get the “Deer Stuck in the Headlights” feeling, but she gives you the tools and know-how to get to The Other Side of Divorce. She explains that the “other side” does not condemn you to a life of negative emotions and baggage, but rather a life of hope and fulfillment. A new life with you at the helm. Through actionable steps and keeping you focused on creating a new life of your making, she gets you through this difficult time in your life… all with a sharp wit and – at times – a toughness that is necessary, in order to quiet your inner gremlins who won’t shut up until Shelley shows up to break up the pity party. And all the while, I always felt that Shelley really listens to me as if I’m her only client, and doesn’t offer cookie-cutter or “one-size-fits-all” advice. I’m not finished with my journey to the Other Side of Divorce yet, but thanks to Shelley, I’m not dreading it. I’m now eager for it – and prepared for it.
I entered into these sessions looking for someone to explain the chaos, lessen the pain; and help me move beyond the emotions. And, if that is all that occurred, it would have been well worth the effort. But these sessions have been so much more. Shelley has set before me a transforming journey of exploration and understanding and from the ashes I found ME. Thank you Shelley!!
I don’t know what I would have done without Shelley’s guidance through this divorce. I felt so hopeless but she has given me the inspiration to go on. Her first hand experience of how painful a divorce can be, gives her all the knowledge a person could possibly need to help others.
After my first session a sense of peace came over me and I knew with her guidance, insight, knowledge, passion and faith in me I would make it through this…I couldn’t have made it without her…
I am an organized Type-A personality career woman who travels the globe. By the age of 56, I have a fairly good idea of my goals; my strengths and weaknesses; where I want to go next and how to get there. When I spent my first session with Shelley on the phone, I realized there is real value in saying these things out loud; prioritizing and reprioritizing, on an ongoing basis; and using the expertise of a life coach to move forward. The time I spent with Shelley really helped put my feet to the flame and made me want to give Shelley’s services as a gift to many of my friends and colleagues.
“Shelley, you are indeed very good at what you do. You are incredible insightful, perceptive and sensitive to the individual. You are thoughful and provocative in a non-threatening way. You have helped me to see things that I don’t think I would have seen in the way that I have. You have helped me get through an incredible difficult time in my life and I am forever grateful to you for that.”
“I’ve done it all in terms of self-improvement but this is a totally different perspective. Its actually enjoyable. Unlike therapy, we can explore my life but in a matter of fact way. There’s a beginning, a middle and an end.
I have had so many feel good moments, so many ah-has, epiphanies! I appreciate your intuitive abilities, your ability to drop something if it isn’t working for me. I like the fact that you speak my language. MOst importantly, the massive changes that I have been able to accomplish in just six months amaze me. These are things I had been working on for years!”
“I’ve always admired your positive and light hearted energy which I’m sure has been your biggest asset in life’s challenges.”
“Shelley has been an incredible life coach. She has introduced me to my own power and strength so that I could fulfill my goals. In just over a year of working with Shelley, I was able to accomplish everything that I had wanted to create for myself. Shelley is an exceptional listener, nurturer and guide; she is able to “get” just what you need to hear and look at in yourself….and set you on a healthy path. Working with her has changed my life in an unbelievable way! I am very grateful to Shelley for giving me the life tools to manifest my dreams.”
You have given me a new insight into moving on into a much higher level, not only in my divorce but in the way I will live each day. That knowledge is a big gift for which I will be eternally grateful. It has already made me change the way I feel about my ex…and I have significantly moved into a higher level of forgiveness.
There is no greater gift than the one of peace. No matter what life brings your way, that peace that lies within yourself is the thing that will see you through. That’s the gift I received from working with Shelley.
Somehow, in the process of my divorce, I lost all the peace I had known and found myself in a constant turmoil of feelings, perceptions, frustrations, etc.. all keeping me from listening to that inner voice and moving on with my life. Very quickly, Shelley helped me to see what really IS and to accept that. (Not that others hadn’t tried).
That acceptance of reality now has me living my new life – not a perfect one and not one without issues to deal with but still…one full of promise and excitement. I learned, with Shelley’s help, to let go, to ease up, and to live today with peace.
Working with her helped me find myself again and though we have not talked in months, her words and the methods she taught me, pick me back up when I feel knocked down and keep me going forward. I draw on them constantly to deal with what comes my way. All the while, the peace is back. You cannot give yourself a greater gift than that. Thank you Shelley!!
Shelley has been one of the most important and influential people in my divorce process. She has given me the tools to remember that my process and healing is what is important during this criticial time. Shelley always reminds me of the power of choice, and the rememberance to make empowering and affirming choices for myself at any given moment. I have quickly progressed in my grieving process and Shelley has been a very important and essential part of that progression. I will forever use and be grateful for the tools that she has offered to me.
