    I've referred clients to Mikelann for debt work - the results were great! Thanks for being such a great resource to our community!

    Mikelann is incredibly gifted at what she does. I have been lucky to share several clients in common with Mikelann, and without exception, they report her work to be powerful and life-altering. She is knowledgeable, grounded and very supportive. Her ability to work with people on the nuts-and-bolts of financial health, while addressing the underlying emotional issues is a rare and much-needed-in-the-world gift.

    I attended one of Mikelann's workshops on rate-setting and underearning, and it was extremely helpful and well-presented. Her advice and insight helped me set my rates at the right amount for me, and get me on the path to earning my worth.

    I went to Mikelann's talk at BizJam in June 07. Her talk was incredibly inspiring and she's a great speaker. I've bought her workbook and now I want to join one of her groups. She has great resources, great information, and a huge desire to empower women (and men).

    When I started working with Mikelann, I didn't even know how to properly balance my checkbook. I started working with Mikelann in 2003. With her expertise not only in finances, but women's issues around money, I quickly realized I needed to make some big changes to have the life I reallly wanted to have. Mikelann gave me the resources I needed to change careers and start doing what I really wanted to do and get clear with my relationship to money. You can't lose working with her.

    I first heard Mikelann speak in 2004, but her comments on ratesetting stuck with me until this year, when I joined one of her groups. Her advice and insights are extremely practical and applicable in one's day to day life, both work and personal. Thank you, Mikelann!

    I first heard Mikelann speak in Spring 2006. She was so inspiring and completely on-target with her research and strategies that I raised my rates for new clients the very next day!

    Then I used her book and became her client in order to carefully plan a rate increase for continuing clients. It has all been implemented and I'm on target to implement my next rate increase for new clients later this year. (Turns out I was charging WAY under the market rate in Seattle for my work!

    She will guide you through this process in a way that is very specific for your business and you'll be earning above your "resentment number" and attracting more desirable clients while delivering excellent value to them with your services.

    I recommend Mikelann's services without reservation.
