In my mind and experience of Gwen, the concept of coach and facilitator become exponentially more powerful with the addition of a "stimulant" flavour. In all our interactions – whether it is being coached or participating in a program with her – she hones in the one tiny, important, fact however much that tiny fleck is surrounded with useless details, and invites me to go deep into myself to become more than I ever thought I could be. With Gwen as my friend and coach, I have learned to stop kidding myself – to tell myself the truth – and even, occasionally, tell my truth to others! Thank you Gwen for being you.

Over the past few months, I have been blessed with the opportunity to be coached by Gwen McCauley of OUICoach. Gwen’s unique career and transformational coaching approach instils confidence and courage. She coaches with integrity, passion and purpose and gives you the tools you need to assess your life and the guidance of how to improve upon each day. In my opinion, Gwen is a trend setter in the coaching profession who truly makes a difference in the lives of the people she works with. She possesses a unique ability to inspire her clients to bring out the best in themselves no matter what the challenges before them. Gwen is totally committed and dedicated to improving the quality of life for all those she comes in contact with. Gwen is a woman who ‘walks her talk,’ and leads others not just by the power of her words, but also by the power of example.
Gwen has a unique ability to develop innovative and highly effective transformational workshops and presents these workshops in insightful ways. In addition to being personally coached, I attended Gwen’s two-day creativity workshop. During this outstanding program, using painting as a springboard, Gwen challenged my traditional ways of thinking to inspire me to live a more meaningful life. This fall I will be attending her ‘Awakening Spirit’ retreat for women in Algarve, Portugal.
Gwen McCauley is not only an exceptional coach; she is a published author, and artist. If you are ready to change your life, may I invite you to consider the coaching and workshop services of Gwen McCauley? Gwen McCauley is a ‘gift’ you give yourself.

“More than a career coach, I sought Gwen as a life coach and immediately knew that I had found someone that would help me move more quickly towards my goals and away from the old beliefs that would continue to weigh me down. With Gwen, I know I still have many discoveries to make about my own abilities in a much friendlier world. I can’t wait!!”

“As a career coach and a person, Gwen is innovative, thought provoking and brings a wealth of life and business experience to the coaching relationship. She doesn’t ask the standard career coach questions about 5 year plans or resume construction, etc., she invites you to look at yourself, your thoughts and feelings about where you are, where you might want to go and who you consider yourself to be. Through these discussions, she works with you as you develop the next steps for your plan, be it career, life or both.”

"I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent career counseling. You have provided me with better direction for focus and for that I will be eternally grateful."

"Hi Gwen, I want to thank you for helping me see beyond the dark life I have at home. Living and working full time with a husband (James) who has brain injury as a result of a cardiac arrest is extremely difficult to cope with. James’ cognitive skills, his short and long term memory was severely affected. When I decided to get help, I knew I had reached out to all avenues. I had heard about your coaching sessions and I said to myself why not, I have nothing to lose except my time.
I guess I was wrong, Gwen. You have brought the best out in me… I am seeing another me. I would never have thought I had the initiative, creativity and momentum to look at new opportunities for myself. Which leads me to believe I am scoping out a whole new life for myself way beyond being a caregiver for James.
Gwen, I know you have seen me shed tears, but believe it or not I am much stronger now and I can talk about my problem without crying. I have come to realize I have a lot of skills and strengths that I need to put into action. As a result of my coaching from you and my own research, I feel I have another strength which I want to expand on and that is in the Image Consulting area. Working through my discovery, I have made contacts with a designer in New York, a color specialist in Denver and it keeps going on and on. I have traveled to Denver for training in the Image Consulting business and best of all I laughed and had fun for 6 days.
Laughing and having fun was a big missing from life since the time James took sick over 2 1/2 years ago. Gwen, all I can say is thanks for getting me this far. You are a very loving and caring person. Watch out Gwen, I have a whole new life ahead.
