What others are saying

“As a small business owner, it’s easy to be overwhelmed and just react to the day-to-day hustle and bustle and put out fires as they come. I loved working with Caterina because she helped me get into the habit of anticipating those fires so they never started. She also helped me implement daily tools that help me track my business and communicate with my employees. A caring and empathetic listener, I always felt safe sharing with Caterina. She cares about you as a whole person—not just a business owner.”—

“We contracted Caterina Alberti of Crossover Coaching to help us take our business to the next level. We found her service to be professional, respectful and very worthwhile. She is very knowledgeable in a multitude of areas and we discussed several topics including:

-sales/marketing/promotions – engaging with staff and customers
– business development/focus/priorities
– personal perceptions that drive or interfere with business growth/potential

As a coach her skills enabled us to examine our business, our perceptions and our knowledge and discover the good, the bad and the ugly and turn it into the great, the challenges and the changes we need to make to develop a thriving business in a changing environment. We would certainly recommend Crossover Coaching for your business, three words about Caterina for personal or business coaching: Creative, Positive and Supportive. She has all these characteristics in abundance…”

 Lots of Love  

I met Caterina at a networking event where she was the speaker. Her sales talk was super informative and I remember thinking to myself, “if this is what she can teach in 20 min, what could I learn from her in a meeting one-on-one?”  I approached her after the meeting and we decided to meet up and chat about how she could help me.  I was hesitant as I had invested in coaching before and never saw a return on investment.  I explained this to Caterina and she understood that I had some trepidation, she shared with me a few things I could do to increase ROI right off the bat, at this point I was impressed. I signed up to work with her and it’s one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. My income has increased AND become much more consistent which I didn’t really think was possible in my line of work.  Further to that, as I decided to shift my practice, it seemed, to open a whole other realm of business I had no idea about.  So instead of fumbling around for a few years trying to make it work, we worked together (I have learned A LOT) and I’m ready to roll out a whole new set of programs in a relativity short amount of time. Not only with the one-on-one appointments, she is available by email when something comes up, which I really appreciate.  She is also very on top of emotional/mental support that is needed with a sole-proprietor business, if I’m not 100% my business isn’t either. She is able to provide support on multiple levels, at the same time it seems, she has this ability to assist me to sort things out, keep me focused and on point at the same time. If you are considering working with her, I would encourage you to make the investment.”

It’s always great to work together 

“I just received a job offer which is the job of my dreams!  I can’t tell you how happy I am.  I would never believed it a year ago how far I’ve got in the past 12 months and that I’m simply happy now.

I often think back to our meetings and how you pointed me in the right direction again and how you reminded me about who I am, you defined my strengths again. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Caterina!
I am so grateful that I made the steps to see you. I feel much stronger now, I am happy and I live the life I love. Thanks again for all your help and your support.” 

Tina Haas

“Love what you do and do what you love”

“I again was so pleased to be a part of an event that you organized Caterina, I was impressed with the volume and inquisitiveness in our international guests questions about our First Nations Culture.  I so enjoyed my time with the Multicultural event Caterina and appreciate you involving me with my crafts.  When I got there – you provided me with the much needed cup of coffee 🙂 thanks a bunch.   You definitely are a gift for Whistler – involving the cultures, foods,arts, music……”

“Caterina, the word gem comes to mind first. You are a beacon of golden light!! Your kindness, understanding and intuition is a beautiful gift.  Thank you for inspiring me to move forward with my visions of La Dolce Vita and creating a stronger, more clear connection to the world around me !!! Work is good, everything is changing super fast now, I had an increase of 5 clients immediately after our visit, I know our meeting assisted in opening this positive path for me.!!”

“Heartfelt thank you to Caterina of Crossover Coaching today for your gentle guidance and huge intuition.”

Melanie Anne Bitner @ BrandHer!

“Caterina brings a unique skill set to any project she takes on. She is very successful at blending her intuitive spiritual nature with concrete coaching and project management skills. She is capable of seeing the big picture and creating a vision – then putting the pieces together to get there. I wish Caterina the very best for all her future projects.”

Betsy Linnell, Owner, Betsy Linnell Marketing Management

“Purpose and Potential, Let’s get into it”

“I have known Caterina for over 20 years and have always found her to be conscientious , thorough and positive. She uses a human approach to achieve results that have a lasting impact”

Patrick Kelly, President, Whistler Real Estate

It’s good to make good friends”

“To Caterina; the concept of assigning a specific time slot on a weekly/biweekly basis is helpful. Life is always a constant juggle and best laid plans are not always realized unless you are able to make a conscious effort to assign time to them. Sounding ideas off against an impartial person who is not invested on the same personal level is nice as it brings a different level of perspective to the conversation.
Positive reinforcement is very up-lifting. Having someone say you are doing a great job gives foundation to the choices we make. Feeling like someone is genuinely impressed and pleased to understand your progress makes you want to strive for more.”

Amy Hughes Shop Owner, Bound To Be Different

“I wanted to thank you for all of your time and support over the last two months.  I feel like I have better coping skills and can handle things better with my staff etc… You have made a difference in my life and I am sure the lives of many others.”

Dear Caterina

Thank you so much for all of the work you put into making peace day a memorable experience for us.  We attended the opening prayer service, movie, and had a reading done at the Cultural Center.  Because of your efforts-peace was a priority in our home and a theme for my birthday on Sept. 20.As a guest in Whistler I became bonded to your community through the activities surrounding the Day of Peace celebrations.  The natural beauty of this place is obvious, as is the attraction of a mountain lifestyle.Many communities could boast offering similar perks, however, attending the opening prayer ceremony for the Day of Peace gave me a feel for just how lovely this town and its people are.   I also attended the movie night and the metaphysical fair.  Your events gave me a concrete reason to return to Whistler, and to tell my friends to do the same for the Day of Peace activities next year. As a “tourist”, I was looking for something to experience that set Whistler apart from other locations I have visited – the Day of Peace festivities fit that desire to a “T”.Thank You for your efforts.  I look forward to seeing you again next September,Many Thanks and Blessings

“In just 2 sessions with Caterina, I’ve been able to focus on specific tasks. At times my tasks seemed like a “To Do List” with-out an end. I’m working toward some very important financial decisions and Caterina has been very inspiring… I know that I will accomplish the goals I have set”.

” You feel very safe with Caterina, she listens and asks questions in a way that lets you know she is interested in you. She has a gentle, kind awareness….what I mean by that is that she speaks her truth quietly, and I always wanted to listen to it. She’s in your corner and she will ask you questions that help you grow.  But you will always feel like who you are is OK.  And that’s important. She will ask you about your alignment with your values.  She doesn’t let you off the hook here; she seeks to go to the place of who you are “being”.
