Darshana has a profound and humbling talent for walking into different scenarios, quickly assessing and processing what is 'really' going on, dealing with the People, and implementing solutions that benefit the individual, team, and the larger whole. She has a big picture vision and can also hone in on what is in the way of achieving the desired result.

She transforms situations through working with people, developing systems, environments, and processes that naturally engender positive results, fun,and success.
Continuous learning is important to Darshana and as a result continues to educate herself in topics of human development, behavior, coaching, consulting, project management assessments, and winning.

"Everything you see happening is the consequence of that which you are." - Dr. David Hawkins
"Darshana has served as a coach for me personally and was hired by my practice to provide project management services for my franchise as we merged two financial planning practices together under the franchise name, J. Lynn Davidson & Associates. I believe Darshana has been a great help to my franchise in assisting us with the complexities of combining two practices and staffs together. As project manager for the merger, Darshana helped us plan and execute each phase of the merger. She also facilitated our 2006 annual team planning session, putting together the outline for our business plan, creating a marketing plan from the work we did during the planning session, and most importantly, creating a systems and processes manual for our team. Darshana also worked with us on our communication processes and helped us create a method for resolving conflicts within the team. I consider my practice to be spiritually based and Darshana was able to coach us with that awareness at top of mind. I am not sure any other coach I might have hired could have come to us from the same type of spiritual space that Darshana was able to achieve. Her talents, energy, and deep understanding of what is important to me and my team have been immensely beneficial to us. In my position as a franchise owner, I have attended a multitude of training sessions and workshops. I have heard Steven Covey, Dan Sullivan, Bill Cates, and a host of other “coaching” experts and I believe Darshana’s work with our team has been on par professionally with those other experts, but her work went much deeper than any of the others I mentioned. It is Darshana’s energy and enlightenment that sets her apart from the typical coaching type of program."

"Darshana is an extraordinary person who sees the truth within everyone and every situation. She is gifted with the ability to communicate powerfully and deeply on a spiritual and energetic level. As a coach and guide, she has demonstrated to me that she has mastered the following: Intuition, Motivation, Accountability, Integrity, Peacefulness, Joy, Persistence, Confidence, and Certainty. As an executive coach myself, Darshana has an impressive blend of experience in corporations as a leader and manager as well as certifications and extensive training with the leading coaching organizations. Her ability to use her learning in the real world as a coach has helped me to grow as a coach, a person, and a business owner. Darshana Hawks has the experience, skills and talent to bring out the best in the people she works with. She is a catalyst for personal and professional growth and success. I highly recommend her."
- John Midkiff
"I have known Darshana Hawks for the past two years after having purchased a coaching session at a silent auction for a nonprofit. I have continued to work with her individually and as part of a financial advisory team. Darshana exemplifies the ideal coach, as she is multi-dimensional and gifted with insight that allows her to pinpoint the places where action is required. Her project management skills also provide the foundation for helping others develop a roadmap that supports goals and dreams. My coaching experience with Darshana helped me to see that coaching was action oriented and for people that were truly focused on life’s journey and making progress. Prior experience in therapeutic situations, although useful, focused much more on talking through the past. Darshana’s approach is focused on knowing myself and seeing and letting go of my own limitations so that I can live more fully into my own calling. This approach provides a very helpful and wholesome balance, including a focus on my spiritual growth and just learning how to be present. As a former athletic coach and current financial consultant and coach for twenty-four years, I realize the importance of zeroing in on our gifts and strengths as well as our self-limitations. I also have great respect for mentors and teachers that can inspire others to reach for their dreams in a way that honors who they are authentically. Darshana is a great motivator and appreciates the unique individual in a way that allows them to see more clearly where they are headed. What surprised me most about the process was how working by telephone actually enhanced and expedited the process. As a result of my own positive experience, I have continued to refer other associates and friends to Darshana knowing that she is a gifted and experienced listener and the work can be done from anywhere."....

“During our search for help with the problems we were having in our marriage, Darshana was the most effective, insightful, and inspirational 'counselor' I ever experienced. I was relieved that she had no agenda; she was dedicated only to help us find what was best for ourselves. She listened and helped us listen to each other and to our own hearts. When she spoke, she expressed her ideas kindly as options for us to consider, and at the same time she clearly pointed out to each of us the things we were avoiding. She helped and guided us to be with our relationship and ourselves in a new way, aiding us to let the old way be a lesson of our past. I felt the energy shift during our session, and within weeks the new and wonderful changes started manifesting in our lives; personally and in our relationship. We feel in love again. Darshana has been a blessing to our marriage.”

Just a note to thank you for your support and guidance in identifying and clarifying my priorities and goals. I appreciate your ability to hear what I'm saying and respond with possible options I rarely realized I was discounting (or never even thought to consider). Your coaching has resulted in my learning more about others in my circle of influence in addition to learning more about myself. I now have a clearer picture of the difference between being human and "humans being" - Cindy DeLong
“ I find Darshana's work to be most inspiring. She is very perceptive of the energies related to the issues at hand. Often when interacting with Darshana, she showed me that what I thought to be my issue was in fact not what what required my attention. That is, where I was focusing my attention and energy was not what would create my highest outcome related to my desires about abundance, my relationship with my wife, and creating my appropriate career . She offered me a number of processes and activities which assisted me to break old and useless patterns. With only a few sessions I was able to maintain a balanced relationship with my wife and manifest a career that is exciting and fulfilling while providing a stable and increasing income. That was 18 months ago and I am still excited with my new career and am enjoying daily increasing financial and spiritual abundance in my life. Thank You Darshana.”
