Testimonials

“Avi exudes a charisma and energy that is infectious. He has an amazing capacity to relate to individuals of all ages and backgrounds and motivate them to make necessary life changes. He has provided the additional support I have needed as a therapist to fully do the best for my clients.” 

Tara Sindler, LMFT, SEP

“Avi is much more than a coach! He is an inspiring mentor, talented athlete and yogi, speaker, organizational wizard and business professional who manages to achieve the seemingly impossible work/health/social goals of his clients. As a psychiatrist who wants the best for my patients, I wouldn’t think of referring to anyone else.”

Dr. Martha Koo, MD

“My name is Patrick Stone and I have been working with Avi for the last 7 years. During this time I have had my character flaws identified, emotional barriers picked apart, finances kept in check, and most importantly was given constant support, direction, and encouragement to have the life I live today.

I first met Avi on November 6th, 2008. My life had gone into a downward spiral, where any physical possession was non-existent, overall morale was at an indescribable low, and the few people in my life were basic acquaintance’s which included my family. Due to my attitude and actions, I had pushed everyone that cared about me away. I had an attitude of indifference to this aspect of my life because I did not want to take a look at what I had been doing to cause this. I only wanted to point fingers and write people off as if I was owed and in the right.

I reached out to Avi as a last resort, I had retired all other options. I knew that I was unhappy with the life style I was living and realized that I needed help. Avi had no idea who I was, it started out as a simple phone call, little did I know that this small gesture was going to set me up for the best thing that has happened to me in life to date. I had developed a lot of trust issues but when he said that he would help, without really knowing anything about me it began the first step towards creating a life I could have never imagined.

Through constant communication, disciplinary practices, and writing. I was able to tackle each flawed trait one by one and was provided the tools necessary to keep my bad habits in check, while at the same time break the cycle and develop the character traits required to live a successful life. Both financially and acquiring a rich family and social life.

Putting to use the valuable practices Avi had taught me, I quickly became the leading sales associate within my company and continued to excel and maintain the ambitions for success for 3 years. Avi taught me to never get complacent, to not settle, and always look to grow. I left the previous job as I knew it was not the career path I was looking to move up in. So in 2010 I took a risk and found a job that only started out as a 6 month temporary position…Through Avi’s constant support, open line of communication, and emphasis on perseverance, I was able to work my way up within the company while being passionate and enjoying myself at the same time. It is 2015, and I am with the same company and have been able to move up to management.

All in all the sky is the limit. I am not done growing and it takes constant discipline and the ability to look at my actions on a day-to-day basis. To stay and become the best version of myself is a concept that I would have never been able to grasp without the guidance and direction that was given to me by Avi. I am only where I am in life because I committed to Avi’s direction. I will be forever indebted to this man. He saw the best of me before I ever knew it existed.”

Patrick Stone III

The Man

“Four years ago when I met Avi I had nothing in my life worth holding on to. My family and friends had completely given up on me and more importantly so had I. It is one thing to deal with someone who needs help getting back on their feet and it is another to convince someone that there is something out there worth getting up for. Avi did that for me. Even though I had given up on life and on myself, he never did. I believe if Avi had not helped me during the hard times and pushed me during the good I would not be here today. I owe everything to Avi.

Today I am 4 years sober.
Today I am a director at an extremely successful restaurant.
Today my family calls me for help instead of the other way around.
Today I have friends that I love and who love me.
Today I can honestly say I love my life. I never thought that was possible because I didn’t even know what it meant.”

Alexander Hawes

“Making a significant behavioral change starts with feeling safe enough to enter into a first, difficult conversation with oneself as well as others. Not only have I witnessed Avi make people feel safe enough to enter into their first difficult conversations, but he also embodies the empathy to come honestly, as their true selves, so that the first step on the path to lasting change can be taken.”

David Reynaldo

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Avi Satz for the past 3 years, both as a colleague and a close friend. Whether personally or professionally, Avi gives his 100% to the relationship and the impact he has left on my life is profound. What separates Avi is his dedication and commitment to the betterment of others. Many a times I have gone to Avi for guidance and counsel and have left our conversation with applicable advice and confidence. Anyone looking for a Life Coach or Business Coach — Look no further than Avi Satz!”

“From his many years of working and supervising in the substance recovery field, Avi Satz learned valuable proficiencies related to counseling, goal setting and benchmarking and life skills. Avi is passionate about personal transformation and is driven to help others. I have watched Avi persevere through his struggles, and believe those experiences are part of what makes him an effective coach. He’s knowledgeable, kind and loves to contribute to others. I can’t recommend him highly enough.”

“Working with Avi Satz has been a blessing to me! When he and I started working together, I was mostly appreciative of how he used humor to breathe life into tense conversations and situations. As we continued our work, I began to recognize and appreciate the kind of transformative leader that he is. He puts his all into the work he does and encourages others to envision and ultimately create their ideal lives. He approaches his clients as friends and through active listening, transparency, and humility, seeks to make meaningful connections with those he works with. Working with Avi has been really invigorating and life affirming for me. He encouraged me to dream bigger than I ever thought possible, and to take the time to commit to things that would advance both my personal and professional life. I am embarking on a few major life changes as a result of some of our work together! Thanks, Avi! “
