"I’ve attended dozens, maybe hundreds of seminars and consultant-lead team building sessions in my 20 years at a fortune 500 company. Cat offered the most insightful, creative and beneficial experience of any of them. Cat understands both business and the human animal. She combines pragmatic business sense with an energetic and obviously disciplined study of the right-brain emotional aspects of performance and motivation. By embracing both our logical self and what too many business leaders consider the “squishy” other half of human nature, Cat’s insights have a power and scope sadly lacking in most of today’s data-driven training".

Steve Mahon, Manager, Airport Policies and Procedures Northwest/Delta Airlines


"Cat,

You gave a wonderful presentation at our Minnesota Facilitators Network meeting. We have been getting rave reviews and great feedback from those who attended. There is even talk by some who want to do a day long follow-up workshop with you. We very much enjoyed working with you. You brought great energy and a challenging message to our professional facilitators group. Many said they will apply their new awareness in their work, especially about getting "buy-in" before implementation. Wonderful job, Cat!"

Ron Cottone, Board Chair, Minnesota Facilitators Network


"Cat is absolutely phenomenal in her approach to counseling. I recommend her to anyone who is serious about taking a look at themselves".

“I have attended a workshop with Cat and have hired her as a personal coach. In both instances, I was uplifted and empowered by the new knowledge and skills that she shared with me, that benefitted both my personal life and my career. Cat is refreshing, fun, motivating and pragmatic in her approach. She will inspire you to reach new heights in living a more fulfilling and conscientious life.”

Kimberly Siméus, Human Resources/Org Dept. Consultant, Non-Profit Leader, Author


"To this day I still reflect back and re-read my materials from your retreat and workshops. They still work."

Debra Lake, Make-up Artist, LA, California


“The title of Life Coach is as close to describing Cat's role in self-actualization as I can think of, although she doesn't call herself that. Cat has developed an evaluation for clients to complete to help her zero in on blocks and blind spots that may be keeping them from their highest potential.She then guides them to their own realizations with wisdom discovered through her own search for truth plus the insights of hundreds of experts, sages and visionaries. Understanding that "we have emotions but they don't have us" is only the beginning of the journey. Her clients leave their sessions with tools to implement emotional evolution and creative perspectives on life.”

Monique DuBos, Communications Professional


"Through my work with Cat, I was able to understand how to manifest the job of my dreams. I now love going to work every day."

"Co-creation' ROCKS !! I find this to be the single most empowering way to view life. I have learned more about myself in just ten weeks with Cat than I had in two years of traditional psychotherapy".

Char T, Bodyworker


"The best part about being in class with Cat are the little light bulbs, and the "ah ha's" constantly going off in my mind. I created a vision board in her class and within six months I had manifested three of my top dreams!"

Nicki Hangsleben


“Combining wisdom, humor, and uncanny intuition born out of years of practice and study in multitudes of disciplines, Cat Thompson is simply the most effective facilitator of Shift I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Her calm and complete acceptance of me (and herself) is a contagious miracle, and I've seen that miracle manifest in my own life time and again, and also in the case of my own son, and in my long-standing men's group as well. Cat Thompson *knows* Mankind. If you're looking for an artistic genius/wise woman to to assist you in "getting rid of what you haven't got", Cat is your go-to Friend.”

Glenn Bourdot, Musician, Writer, Bodyworker


“Cat possesses high intellect, common sense, tremendous emotional intelligence, exceptional interpersonal skills and a great sense of humor. This makes working with her an expedition of discovery for who you are and where you want to be in the world. I took her class on "Beyond the Secret" and the visioning excercies we did brought me to a whole new level of understanding about myself. Cat has so many tools in her toolbox and she knows how to pick the ones that you need that will make a difference in your life story. Most importantly, Cat follows her own dreams and passions in a way that excites, motivates, and challenges those that work with her. She models the way.”

Teri Fick, Toxicology Specialist at 3M


“Cat has a remarkable ability to help you get to the bottom of whatever you are working with. She has a keen understanding of the emotional stages we experience throughout life, and is an expert at recognizing behavioral patterns.”

Tim Prokott, IT communication, analytical problem solving, process optimization, and coaching.
