Don't take it from me. Listen to these incredible humans. They are so wise.

“I now know what I’m capable of. Darla helped me raise the bar and create a new standard for what I can achieve.
Working with Darla, I felt a sense of empowerment in urgency. As an athlete, my schedule has a lot of unstructured time. I started working with Darla to increase my productivity and focus. We worked together to set both short and long term goals. While working with Darla, I felt very comfortable, and I knew she would help keep me accountable. This accountability pushed me to get things done and make progress toward my goals.”
Daniela Caine, Founder and CEO, Koryphae
“I started working with Darla as my coach to help me process through some pivotal life events and to be held accountable for starting my own business.
She's highly intuitive, a compassionate listener with an ability to hold space and reflect back what's kept inside and yearns to get out.
She connects the dots and is able to give context beyond the initial emotional reactions which makes me feel deeply supported towards my growth and success. I highly recommend working with Darla as your coach!”
“I realized I had a narrative for many years that morning is my time, but with the help of Befriend Your Brain, I found that I puttered away my mornings, and preferred to do my personal work later in the day when other people in my family were sorted. It's given me a hint of clarity that I might leverage more consciously.”
— Director, Mom, and Befriend Your Brainer
“I know and feel your brilliance and I know that your program will shift mountains for people - just like working with you has shifted mountains for me.”
— Business owner, Sustainable Fashion Designer, and Befriend Your Brainer
“Befriend Your Brain is a gentle and supportive way to help yourself, and maybe in ways you didn't expect. It kept me focused on meaningful actions and helped me stay buoyant when I got discouraged.”

Danna Nelson, SVP, Amtech Software
“What makes Darla really special is that you can feel both safe and challenged.
Before coaching with Darla, there were certain aspects of my life where I wasn't achieving what I wanted. Through working with Darla, I now recognize the importance of addressing the thoughts and feelings I have toward a goal. Coaching with Darla is a process of self-discovery. She breaks a challenge down and creates a process for getting to those goals while receiving any guilt and anxiety. If you have any part of your life where you feel is unfulfilled, Darla will help you address it without judgment. ”
“I had a lot of ideas, but I was having trouble prioritizing and confirming where exactly to put my attention. Darla helped me be okay with the uncertainty and made moving through that uncertainty such an impactful experience.”
— Caitlin Hudson, Personal Trainer, Writer, and Podcaster
“I appreciated how each section [of Befriend Your Brain] was broken up into smaller manageable steps and how big concepts were “pushed through a funnel” to assist us in narrowing our focus to just a few relevant items.
This program is tailor made for every human who wants a ‘reset.’ The candid humor makes the workbook an easy read.
She breaks each practice down into bite-sized steps that can be successfully completed by every kind of person: from the overworked CEO, to the exhausted mom, or even the completely scatterbrained adult with ADHD.
Not much else could get me out of bed before 7am on a Sunday.”
— Miranda Kufs, Owner of Miranda Meow Made
Anastasia Nylund, Language Engineer
“I worked with Darla to integrate my personal and professional goals after making a big move and career transition. What drew me to Darla's approach is her enthusiasm for helping clients create a full and well-rounded life, where personal, family and career goals are integral pieces of a bigger picture.
As a coach, Darla is direct, personal and flexible. I cannot recommend working with her highly enough.
Throughout our work together, Darla reminded me of my goals and kept me accountable, both in getting through roadblocks and celebrating wins. At the end of the program, I have more clarity and confidence in reaching my goals. Coaching with Darla creates a powerful framework for supporting your growth in all areas of life.”
“Coaching with Darla has been one of the most life changing gifts for me over the past two years!
Her ability to truly hear you and reflect back to you in a warm, yet direct way is undeniably a gift. The way Darla responds to my limiting beliefs helped me not only see them more clearly but gave me the hope, inspiration and enthusiasm to move through those blocks.
Before coaching I would feel stuck in my harmful thought loops and felt like I was moving through mud with my progress. Working with Darla helped me clear the mud quicker and see where I was getting stuck so I could move forward with clarity and actual belief in myself.
She helped me work through some of the most challenging experiences in life with my business and personal relationships. Finally, I'll mention, Darla makes transformation work fun and approachable which I love!”
— April Jay, Psychic Healing Guide and Spiritual Mentor
“Coaching for me was something I committed to without knowing what the end result should be, but I knew I needed to do it. Darla encouraged me and helped my true self shine through the process.
She balanced challenging me and reflecting back to me the ways I could grow, and her intuition and insight alone were worth the program.
In the end, the results were much more amazing than I could have imagined. I feel free and liberated to continue the journey to being me. Thank you Darla!”
