Testimonials

"I equate working with Machen to hiring a business partner. But unlike most partnership situations, he is 100% committed to your agenda. And it’s cost effective-since you’re not sharing 50% of your profits with him. He has made a measurable difference in not only the results of my practice, but how I feel about my practice. My attitude about coming to the office has shifted from apprehension and stress to one of anticipation and excitement. I highly recommend him..."

"Machen has been absolutely key to how I now think, act, and resolve both personal and business issues that were keeping me stuck. I'm just not stuck like I was anymore. I recommend that anyone who is in search of wise "actionable advice" for business or personal reasons -contact Machen McDonald!

-Scott Taylor

"Machen provided me with insight regarding how I see things, how to rethink in a positive way my own individuality and strengths. He helped me recognize I can intentionally create the outcome I want by changing my thoughts. Machen, observed and shared honestly a way in which I had been allowing negative thoughts from my past to continue ruling my attitude, by recognizing these traits, I am able to change my thought process. Two statements he made, had a huge impact on the way I see myself and my life, they were, "Michele, you seem to look at how hard life is, it does not have to be hard, unless you want that, do you?" And my favorite is to believe that; "The Easier it gets, the Easier it gets!", I very much appreciated my time with Machen, he shared his expertise, kind, and positive attitude. I choose for life to be easy and I expect good things. I also am allowing to give myself a break and now, I choose to limit my exposure to people who drain me. Even persons I love very much, I am choosing to surround myself with people who make me happy and add joy to my life. Thank you Machen, you are a gifted man and I'm blessed that our paths crossed. You enlightened me. Another really big thing was to show me that not being the best woman I can be, does not do the world any favors, I deserve to be happy and successful, and accept all the goodness in the universe. None of us can not share what you do not have. That is my gift, to myself and my family. I can be proud of my accomplishments and let life send me all the blessings I can stand!"

-Michele Woods

"I have known Machen for 20 years as a friend in business. I didn't start working with him as a coach until Jan 07. He is extremely talented and intuitive. Machen has helped me to reach a deeper level of understanding about my entire life and how it is so intertwined. The most valuable thing he has taught me this last year and a half, that had many unpredictable challenges along the way, is get very clear on how I want to be about whatever I am faced with, and to create that feeling as best I can, as often as I can, until it becomes reality. I can draw my intentions to me no matter the situation I am facing! Machen has an unbelievable gift! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Machen, I am truly grateful to know you."

-Rusti, The Integrity Group

"ProBilliance..... what an appropriate name for what Machen MacDonald stands for! He is truly gifted in drawing out my own personal and professional "brilliance". These last 3 years under his "coaching" wing have produced amazing results for me both personally and professionally. Thanks, Machen, for helping me tap into success and balance."

and i mean this from the bottom of my heart!!
