"I have personally been on the phone with Dixie when I had challenges in my business and when I had interpersonal challenges that affected my business. She is a wonderful, wonderful coach.

"I have many teachers and mentors, but only one coach. Dixie is a class unto herself as a coach, as a muse, as an empowerer and as a fire starter.
