He really helped our relationship to turn a corner when we were stuck in a rut. His help really helped us to understand each other which brought us closer as a couple and for that I’ll forever be greatful.

Working with Ron has been a godsend.
He’s inspired me to state positive affirmations in the mirror every morning, we read and text scriptures to each other everyday.
He’s also inspired me to write my first book, which is still underway, but writing fills me with so much joy!!
I’m so much more happier having him to work with!
Thank you for being so awesome, Ron!!

Ron is an exceptional human being, coach, and friend. He leans on the depth of his wisdom and experiences to breathe life into your spirit. He actively listens to your needs and uses the art of storytelling to help you think about life as a collection of circumstances and choices. He reawakens “the giant within you” by constantly reminding you that the power of change is imbedded within the choices you make. His faith, passion, and positivity are infectious. When you work with Ron, you see results because your well-being is his priority. More...

Ron gave me my dad back. He was there to speak with my dad after my mom’s passing, guiding dad through the darkest possible times when no one else could reach him. Ron helped my dad to find again how life can be beautiful, fun, and interesting. Every once in awhile I will say to dad, or dad will say to me, ‘What would have happened without Ron’? He performed a miracle. We both are so lucky to have crossed paths with the amazing Ron James. Neither of us have met anyone like him. We are both greatly indebted to Ron. More...

Working with Ron has literally been life changing. I found myself as a 40 year old with a great job and amazing family and friends but was miserable. Ron has helped me focus on what matters to make sure I am the best version of myself. I am confident because of my experiences he would be able to help anyone. Would give more than 5 stars if possible. More...

I’ve only just met Ron, but there’s so much resonates between our energies that I support. He’s a survivor, a fighter, a helper and a leader of internal change.
He has so much value to offer and I can see myself becoming greater than who I am today, with his mentorship and guidance.
I can’t wait to work with him again.
