Bella, Love & Liberation Relationship Coaching Client:
I reached out to Thena when I felt confused, broken, and undervalued in my relationship. After the initial call, I immediately felt seen and understood, knowing that I could safely share my innermost feelings and thoughts with her. I signed up for 10 sessions, which transformed my life. Through these sessions, Thena opened my mind to numerous possibilities, helping me believe I deserved a magical life, something I didn't think was possible before. Thena provided tools and coached me through challenging conversations, encouraging me to be brave and speak from my heart, aligning my words with my true values. Thanks to this empowerment, I worked on patterns that were hindering my enjoyment of my relationship, which is now in a much better place. I feel more confident and capable, all thanks to these sessions. I highly recommend Thena if you want to start living a more magical life! - Bella (London, UK)

Brittney, Love & Liberation Relationship Coaching Client:
Thena is a woman who will lead you deeper into yourself so you can find your own wisdom within. She has a nurturing and inviting yet fierce and direct approach, a wonderful balance to have in a coach. With Thena, I feel safe to be me, more unapologetic in my femininity, and stronger in my truest desires.” - Brittany (Denver, CO)

Mandy, Love & Liberation Relationship Coaching Client:
Thena opened my eyes and showed me my value and capabilities. She empowered me to do hard things without fear of speaking up or failing, knowing I'd learn and grow from stepping out of my comfort zone. I feel more confident and strong as a person. I've been comfortable with her since day one; she cares deeply.

Max Diez, Vice President of UpNest:
Thena was UpNest’s most important hire. After the company was founded, the biggest challenge for us was to find the right person that was passionate about what we were building. Fortunately, we found Thena and she was able to translate her desire to help the consumer to the UpNest marketplace. She single-handedly transformed our recruiting process and was well liked by her clients which can be read in dozens of UpNest’s online reviews.That said, I’ve worked closely with her over the past two years, sharing the same open office space the majority of the time and managing her directly. Thena showed excellent communication skills and consistently exceeded company goals. On a personal level, she’s charismatic and well-spoken, both qualities that have served her well in her role as a senior account manager.

Lars Nordstrom, Team Leader of Nordstrom Real Estate Group:
I have been working with Thena for quite some time now and it has been a great relationship. Though the tasks have always been professional, she manages to take a personal approach. A more symbiotic and synergistic partnership has really helped us on multiple tasks and transactions. She has great character, follow up skills, and has a work ethic that starts earlier and ends later than 9am-5pm. She addresses clients' needs, and facilitates a better outcome for each client by keeping in touch and listening to concerns and successes. This has made her system feel more of a partnership and less of a referral program.

I have been working with Thena as one of her Queens NYC connections and every interaction, referral, and question has been handled with the utmost professionalism. She is diligent in following up, personal in her approach, and extremely competent in her skills... If she lived in Queens, we would offer her a job ourselves :) Thanks for everything Thena!

Testimonial from Tom Khorram, Managing Broker:
"Thena was my assistant and loan processor for two years. She consistently provided a high level of service to me and my team of successful loan officers. Thena demonstrated the ability to take initiative, prioritize, and meet deadlines effectively. She was frequently praised by underwriters for preparing perfect loan files, showcasing her meticulous attention to detail and commitment to excellence.

Rob Lam, Co owner of Eastside West Restaurant:
Thena worked for me for two years as a service and restaurant manager. Thena was responsible
for attending to our guests needs as well as supervising and managing our employee staff.
She showed very strong leadership skills as well as interpersonal skills. She formed lasting
relationships with our neighborhood clientele and was a favorite among our vendors and
our teams. So much so, that upon her departure from us, we experienced an outcry of
despair both from our employees and our guests. Thena would make a welcome addition to
any business and I highly recommend her. She is capable, responsible, and reliable in
every way.

Gabriela Councell, Home Seller in Memphis, TN:
Thena was amazing throughout the whole process. I submitted my request on a weekend and she responded the same day. I was out of the normal service areas but that didn't stop her from helping me to find the right realtor for me. She pre-screened several individuals and acted as negotiator for me. Long story short, I sold my house in one day and have had an amazing experience. I was so surprised how many people do not spend a little time on the front end to interview realtors and ensure you get the right fit - your home is one of your most important assets! Thank you Thena for all your help and for negotiating a commission that was less than 6%.

Joe Jankord, Home Seller in Savanah, GA:
What a great experience! Thena called me the next morning and after finding out my needs she went to work and did all the work from then out. She called and arranged for three agents to meet with me. I interviewed all three agents and ended up listing my property with one of the agents she found. It was an easy experience and in the end I am going to save 1% on the sale of my home! Can't beat that!!! Thanks Thena for all your hard work!

Brenda Faber, Home Seller in Loveland, CO:
This is such an excellent service. It made finding a realtor incredibly easy. Even though they hadn't worked much in our area yet, Thena did an excellent job of recruiting top-notch candidates. In only a couple of days, we had 5 outstanding proposals, all competing for our business! We are very satisfied that we got maximum services for a reasonable commission for selling our home. This is the way the real estate business should work!
