Kelly Terry
The coaching I received from Savannah Rayat was a true game changer for my life and career! Savannah's skillful art of asking all the right questions helped me think differently and her ability to help me create self accountability has flowed into multiple facets of my personal and professional life! I'm so grateful as I've seen the evidence of my growth and more importantly others have seen it as well!!!
Cami Carter
It has been an absolute privilege to work with Savannah for the past year. I am continually impressed by her exceptional coaching skills, which are a result of her unique combination of active listening and a vast array of tools. Savannah's expertise extends across numerous aspects of life and she has been instrumental in my personal growth and professional development. She has helped me become a better leader, a more present friend and family member, and a more career-driven individual. Savannah's guidance in developing my professional brand through comprehensive resume development and LinkedIn optimization has been invaluable. I am truly grateful for her mentorship, and the positive impact she has had on both my personal and professional life. She has been a valued coach, mentor, advisor, and friend. Her recognition as an official member of the Forbes Coaches Council speaks volumes to her skills and impact in the coaching industry. Her unwavering dedication to helping others grow and her steadfast support are what sets her apart. Her passion for coaching, combined with her extensive knowledge and expertise, make her an exceptional mentor who is committed to her clients' success. I am grateful for the positive influence she has had on my life, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking to improve in their personal or professional life.

I started working with Savannah as a coach last year while working through an important milestone in my career at Facebook (Meta). Savannah helped me navigate the social systems in a graceful way that helped me move through obstacles and objections with leadership to ultimately land the promotion that I was seeking. She is a strong coach and mentor - and can help through a wide variety of business and leadership scenarios. If you're looking for a coach that can help you get to the next version of yourself, Savannah is it. She's high powered, motivated, and extremely experienced.
