Reviews

highlight of our conference

- Deborah Holton

I first met Bridgette at a training weekend where she was one of the facilitators. Her warm enthusiasm really helped me feel welcome, reinforcing for me that I belonged there. In a particular session that weekend she modeled for us all the power of vulnerability doing so with such grace and courage that we learned very deeply from her.

best decision we made

- Deb Gaut

Bridgette is a force of nature—incredibly bright, vibrant, and compelling as a speaker and deeply caring, insightful, and inquisitive as a coach.

- Margie DuBois

For over a decade, Bridgette Simmonds has inspired and coached thousands of leaders and coaches internationally to engage their personal power, elevate their leadership and monetize their passions.

so powerful

- Kevin Huntting

I chose Co-Lab as I was really drawn to Bridgette's style, energy, support, and really her overall approach as a coach and because Co-Lab really offered very tailored information on the types of marketing channels to use along with real examples so that I could connect with my audience.

unstoppable confidence

- ReNew Cares Medical

Bridgette is an incredibly effective speaker, with active demonstrations and audience engagement. I wasn't sure what to expect, but she has total command over the subject on how to lead, listen, and speak as a team and organization. I'm excited to bring what she taught into my work and life!

incredibly inspiring

- Event Attendee

Incredibly inspiring and motivating. Bridgette has amazing energy and it was felt even before she spoke. It’s only the first session but I know I’ll walk away with this as my favorite part of the conference.

unbelievable energy

- Gisela Lowenstein

Bridgette has unbelievable energy. She's extremely empowering, and at the same time, she challenges your thinking with that sweet voice. Sometimes it's about just one question or one thing that was brought up in our sessions. Then you know if you do want to do the work because some people don t want to do the work. And when you reflect, then those things stay like ticks, and they bring further insights.

Drawn to her energy

- Deb Gaut

The first time I met the vivacious Bridgette Simmonds was in 2019, when she was facilitating a three-day coach training session in Dallas, offered by the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching. What you need to know first and foremost about Bridgette is she’s a force of nature—incredibly bright, vibrant, and compelling as a speaker and deeply caring, insightful, and inquisitive as a coach. A few months after, I had the chance to be coached by Bridgette, and the experience was riveting and powerful. Imagine an intensely bright light shining into the depths of your soul, and you’ll understand what coaching is like with Bridgette Simmonds. Mind blowing. 

Warm enthusiasm

- Paul B.

To say her talk was inspiring, would be an understatement. The audience was mesmerized, engaged and enthusiastic. She truly transforms an audience in a powerful way

She is Amazing!!

- Arnold Ferrier

Since working with Bridgette, one of my key goals was to shift from having no clients to having clients, and so we've now achieved that. I actually have clients coming to me through referrals. recommendations, and people that I am coaching and recommending my services. So I think if you look at the return on investment, then that is priceless. We have 10xed the investment with Bridgette by virtue of having a client stream.

Inspiring speaker

- Jennifer Kremer

I got my first paid coaching client for more than I ever would have dreamed I could have charged and had the confidence to ask for that. To not sway when the person tried to negotiate with me, not sway in my value to know that I did that and then had that client resign up again later for more sessions for the same value, you know, like just having that.

trust, trust, trust!

- Alessandra Rodrigues

It's true that when we look into the match between the culture and the coaches, it was something that we wanted to guarantee, and moreover, I would say that coaching is about trust. And we needed trusted partners because one thing that we want every employee to know is that we're not monitoring you. This is not giving you something to get something back, and we wanted to make sure of that from the beginning. They could trust the coaches that we were offering. They could trust the confidentiality of the process, and they could trust that this is done out of good intent. 

impactful session

- Derek Polanco

The session let us think about our life and job from a more impactful, deeper way and how we place our energy.

PHENOMENAL!!

- Keesler Federal Credit Union

PHENOMENAL - I messaged 4 people during the event to share and reached out to our c-suite to see if we could book her!

energy and positivity

- Firefighters First Credit Union

Definitely inspired me to look at these opportunities to learn in a different light.
