Incredible coach that helps unlock clients' true potential.

I've worked with Crystal on several projects from time management and productivity to interpersonal relationships and communication. She is intuitive, can adapt to many variables and provides insightful and practical advice to take substantial steps towards the goal.

She was very understanding and showed me all the skills and tools she has. She always comes prepared and ready for the seasons with articles and notes, also a very good listener with helpful perspectives. Definitely recommend!! Antonio C. 8/12/2023     Since I met Crystal, and started working with her regularly, I've noticed many positive changes in how I manage my life and business. Especially when I decided to uproot my family, and make a move to a new country. Her practical approach, and consistent advice helped me to navigate what was a Herculean change into something vastly more manageable, and even fun. Professionally, Crystal was able to help me identify new opportunities using my skill set, and manage the pitfalls and challenges that always come when living and working overseas. Personally, Crystal has been instrumental in identifying, and changing my habits to work for me, instead of against me; to get out of my own way, and make my perceived weaknesses into some of my greatest strengths. I admire Crystal for her own accomplishments, and how she helped me manage my own life with compassion and empathy. Since I met her, I have gone through highs and lows, but Crystal has consistently been a source of sound advice and proven methods I looked forward to each week.

She helped me out a ton when it comes to creating a great mindset for any goal you want to tackle, whether it's fitness, career, allowing yourself to relax, or even just being kinder to yourself.

I'm looking forward to continued growth! I highly recommend Crystal! ​ Eric P. 2/23/2021 ​ When I first started working with Crystal, I was a defensive, emotionally shut down workaholic who had been teaching in various unfulfilling and underpaid roles for years simply because I did not have a clear idea of my own career goals. Since then, I've taken steps to learn more about the current professional terrain in the East Bay and beyond. I've begun taking online Business and Marketing coursework to educate myself in ways pertinent to my new professional goals. I've found ways to network with young professionals in my area outside of my workplace, and I've found a workplace where I can be myself and gain camaraderie and support. I'm learning again and again that I can make mistakes, I can be imperfect, at work and in my life, and that's okay! I feel like I'm back on my path and living my life's purpose again. I am so grateful to have gotten the opportunity to work with Crystal, particularly at such a vulnerable moment in my life. She did such a great job of shepherding me out of the most recent in a long series of underpaid, boring, uninspiring jobs, into a position where I can pursue my dreams. ​ Catherine T. 3/13/2020   Crystal has been amazing, I am so glad I found her! She brings a lot of insight and presence into her work. She is a great listener and will guide you to find answers to your own questions. She asks questions in a brilliant way, that awakens your brain in ways you might not have thought of. If you need someone who will guide you, and offer knowledgeable responses/recommendations/practices on what it means to you, to be a great leader, or how you can live this life to the best of your abilities, Crystal might be the coach you need. Juliana N. 11/29/2019   Crystal Fry, Leadership Coach, where do I begin?  This is by far one of the best coaches I could have ever asked for. Crystal has gone above and beyond in showing her interest in my professional well being, and also being there. Since starting to work with Crystal at approximately three months ago, I have grown tremendously.  She has shown me ways to set amazing radical boundaries with my peers, grow into my greatness, and hold me accountable/responsible for my actions as a leader. If you're wanting to become your full self and submerge into your own greatness but need a helping hand, sign Crystal Fry onboard and she'll take you to the moon and back.
