Patricia’s work has completely transformed my relationship with money and my ability to monetize my business. A few days after my first session with Patricia, I closed the largest deal of my entire career – at a price ten times higher than I had previously been charging. Patricia has helped me overcome money mindset blocks, which has enabled me to build a business I would never have dreamt possible. Patricia is brilliant, insightful, and always a pleasure to work with – I can’t recommend her work enough!
