What is TopWomenCoaches.com™?
Top Women Coaches is the "Tiffany of coaching resources," or to put it in the context of the online world, the "A Small World of coaching resources."

We are an invitation-only collective of the world’s most accomplished female coaches in the disciplines of personal, executive, relationship and real estate coaching.

There are six self-appointed accreditation bodies for business and life coaching, but Gandhi noticed that there was a hole of opportunity; there was nowhere the hardest to find coaches gathered; the ones who advise influencers like Oprah and Richard Branson.

The world’s most successful people have mentors, but they are nearly impossible to find. She wanted to be that place to make them available and to help them market themselves to the right kind of customer.

What does the media say about coaching?
According to USA Today: "Personal growth is hot. Diagnosis is not. That is one reason America has seen a boom in the number of people offering their services as "life coaches." These guides give clients the confidence to get unstuck—to change careers, repair relationships, or simply get their act together."

CNN says: "The International Coach Federation (ICF) has 12,000 members worldwide and doubled that amount in just five years.
TopWomenCoaches.com™ is an important part of this trend.
