Testimonials
I began working with Shelly at a very difficult time in my life. I was getting ready to graduate from school with very little idea of my next steps, I was also about to lose my job, and I desperately wanted to fulfill a creative dream of writing a book.
The genius of Shelly is that she did not address each little problem I presented to her; instead she helped me create a vision for my next steps and then figure out where all the issues I was dealing with fit into this vision. I have to say that this is the best skill I learned from my time with Shelly -- how to always ask if something I want is supporting or taking away from my vision.
Shelly is an awesome coach! I highly recommend her. She has great insights and will show you how to move to your next chapter!

I think the one truly appreciable aspect of Your Next Chapter, is Shelly Ryan's affability and kindness. She certainly places you at ease to be honest with yourself while addressing whatever confusion that plagues the client. Your Next Chapter helped me be more positive, and simultaneously relieved that the doom and gloom I was replaying in my head about the ongoing changes in my life, really was in my head and not the reality of the situation. I recall literally taking a deep breath of relief when Shelly helped me understand that. Consequently, as I live my life and make necessary changes, I know Shelly is a phone call away, and more importantly, I am more positive and certain that everything will turn out just the way it is supposed to. With this newfound positivity about my relationships at work and personal, I am definitely more relaxed, less tense, and making better decisions with clarity. I highly recommend Your Next Chapter and Shelly Ryan.

Have you ever felt like you keep working at something and can't quite reach your goals and objectives? Well, working with Shelly Ryan has helped me tremendously in accomplishing my personal and business goals. Before working with Shelly, I would just continously justify why I couldn't accomplish my goals. I was always hard on myself and never able to let go of my worries and concerns. In working with Ms. Ryan over a year now, she has really helped me to make my wishes and dreams come true by helping me to hold myself accountable to my goals, timelines and work plans. She is truly a gifted coach mostly because she does not judge or push you to do things. Shelly has a wonderful way of being a great cheerleader and motivator. Don't give up the opportunity to work with such a talented coach!
