Sean Keough
"Cathy did a great job pointing out the pit falls of trying to do it all and offered great advice on how to handle it."

Ines GallianiUnited Bible Society
Thank you, Cathy

You helped me to realize that I have to stop a little bit for my family time and to take care of me. I was frustrated for the overload of work but now, I know that there is a solution and I will try to appy your tips to my job/life. Many blessings.

Angie Weber
"Cathy, Thank you so much for speaking to the members at the MVMA meeting on Friday. The group thought that you were an excellent speaker with great delivery and was very knowledgeable on the subject matter. Several members stated that they liked the idea of breaking down the pieces of a large project or goal into smaller action items that could be accomplished daily or weekly. It was a great presentation overall and I think it was very applicable to our members. Thank you again for your assistance. I might be contacting you in the future after we determine the 2011 program schedule."

Samantha Naes
"Great presentation (as usual). Cathy brought up some really good points and offered advice that really made sense…."

Patti Isringhaus
"Cathy Sexton is a brilliant speaker. She has an insight into creating steps to get organized that are simple and defined. She provides a stair step procedure to getting the maximum of output for the working day…."

Marcia ConaghanProgram Manager at Grace Hill Women’s Business Center
"Cathy’s presentations are clear and pertinent to topic, and her handouts are beautifully laid out and functional tools. Cathy’s warm, friendly style elicits good Q&A. She is a great addition to our programs."

Jan ScottSt. Louis Women’s Yellow Pages
"Cathy Sexton correctly named her business Productivity Speaker and Training. She shares her wisdom speaking, writing, and with personal service. Her handouts are a treasure and sum up the experience she has provided in her presentation. Her written Tips are always realistic and practical. She helps us all feel good and ready to tackle some of our frailties. Cathy brings grace to her presentations. Everyone loves her. We are all smiles and happy after a dose of Cathy Sexton. She spoke recently at our monthly lunch and listened to everyone and then answered all of our questions, even the ones we didn’t ask. And topped that off with super handouts."

Dale Furtwengler
“Cathy your Email program was incredibly useful and practical.”

Megan S.
"Cathy, thanks for making the counseling-by-phone option so successful. I would not have thought it could be an effective way to deal with highly personal issues, but it really works for me. It bypasses a lot of the natural defenses I have and eliminates distractions and obstacles. Because of our success, I called EAP today to get some individual counseling and I chose the telephone option again. It keeps the focus on ‘the topic’ (whatever it is), which has not always happened in the past."

L. Sloan
“Cathy, I loved the Email seminar. You gave great ideas to reclaim some time from Email. Now maybe Email won’t be so frustrating and time consuming."

Julie HoodFinally Organized LLC
“If you’re drowning in Email, Cathy’s class is a lifesaver. I’m always looking for new ways to save time and technology and Cathy provided tons of ideas I have never heard before. My favorite suggestion was the A-B-C format to focus Emails to what actually needs to happen and eliminate rambling messages!”

Rosemary WilsonCreed

Donna GamacheDirector of St. Louis Tapestry Network
"Powerful Business Presence!"

Aradi Rivera

I can’t wait to really start using the action files when I get back from out of town. Thank you for making my life 100 times more productive!”

Angela B.
“The info-excellence seminar was overall great information and very helpful now if I can just get everyone else to learn what I did all would be great.”

Maxime BaklondUnited Bible Societies
Cathy,

I am going back with a big hope that I can rescue my family life and still stay motivated to achieve productivity in my job. I am grateful for your sharing of your personal experience it is so real!!!

Aprille Trupiano
"I used my planner not only to take notes for sessions, but also to track for outside meetings with people at the conference. It even gave me a place to record all of my follow up actions so when I got back, my time hadn’t wasted and I kept my promises to people I’d met! Using the Conference Planner, I increased my ROI on the event at least 200%! Thanks Cathy, for such a great tool to maximize my time, effort and expenses on ALL of my conferences!!!"

I just know that I need to buckle down and get to work. Thanks for your ideas and assistance as your help got me started with small steps and got me in the right mind-set! Thanks."

Doug BellevilleSTL Beds
"A productivity expert is not inexpensive but is a necessary business expense that will pay dividends many times over – freeing up much needed time that every business owner claims that they don’t have. For the last year Cathy has helped STL Beds accomplish what seemed impossible and to get it all done with unconceivable efficiency. Cathy is STL Bed’s secret weapon for success. Shhh."

Pam Voss
“It amazes me how the clutter and disorganization in my office affected my productivity. With your systematic way of approaching my day, the mail that comes in, my filing system, my to-do’s and other areas, I can actually get it all done. My stress level has dropped considerably!”

Marie PerduUMB Bank
“Cathy, Thank you for sending me The productivity Pipeline, that is a very informative new letter.

Larry O.
"Cathy, looking back on the last 6 months of us working together I am amazed at the transformation. Prior to working with you I would take on projects without looking at how they fit into the big picture or how to maintain them, with so much going on in my life I was constantly putting out fires. Now I am much more proactive and react to the sparks before they get out of control. I feel like I have my life back. I now enjoy my work and my family in a way I never thought possible. Thank you for your guidance, coaching, support and patience."

Laura JonesRegent Power

I wholeheartedly recommend her system for anyone who finds their plate too full and piles too numerous. Thank you Cathy for giving me a new lease on life!”

K Fears

Dawn R. BerryAgency Principal at Provident Insurance Agency LLC
"Hello Cathy, I’ve received the fax that you sent and I am so thrilled at the progress that I’ve made so far from working with you. I was thinking this morning about sleeping better, and finding it easier to wake up in the morning; never in a million years would I have thought that being more organized and on-task at work would or could spill over into my personal life to that extent. Thanks again for all of your support!"

Larry Stockman
"A ‘Big Thank You” to you, dear Cathy! You continue to be the “Brilliant, Peacemaking Voice of Integrity!” I surely hope that you will put all of these weekly “Teachings” into a Splendid Book……..sometime in the future!"

Willie C SmithWCS
“Cathy, continue your great work the presentation was very informative and I now know how to organize my work load and to effectively communicate by Email.”

Barry Kepp
“Cathy’s knowledge, information, experience, and expertise–and her special blend of calm, peaceful, focused enthusiasm for her work and her clients–is phenomenal! Ever since she came into my life and started coaching and consulting me, my life has gotten on track big-time. I’ve begun cleaning up my clutter again; I’ve been taking powerful, decisive, direct actions to develop and expand my new business in the face of overwhelm and resignation; I’ve been attracting new clients; and my entire outlook on life has shifted up several notches. I’m now a positive-minded, productive doer instead of a crabby, angry, negative complainer. My sessions with her have shifted from being “poor me” pity parties to being “Powerful Me” Productivity Pow-Wows. And I mean “WOW!” I highly endorse and recommend her services. Cathy Sexton is a force of Nature.”

Lyn Ruess
"Thank you so much for coming and giving your presentation. At least 2 people have already set up “tickler” systems based on your advice! I am working on the 32/96 minute pure productivity advice you gave. So much of what you said rang true with all of us, and you gave very helpful suggestions on prioritizing, which is one of the banes of this job…and on how to deal with projects vs. tasks. Whenever I used to get totally overwhelmed, a friend of mine used to always say, “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.” That’s turned out to be true in so many areas of life. Thank you again for your time and your advice!!"

Rick Martz
"I enjoyed the meeting, Cathy’s presentation was excellent and very helpful."

Dawn R. BerryProvident Insurance Agency
"Hi Cathy, I just wanted to let you know, that after being out of the office for three full days (Thursday, Friday, and Monday) – which in the past would have been a big deal for me. When I arrived to the office today my email inbox had 472 emails in it, as of right now there are only 88 emails! And I am even completely done with all of my G.O. System tasks for this month. Thanks to what I’ve learned from working with you I just realized that these tips, tools, and techniques are a way of life for me now. I just do them as if it were second nature to me! I just wanted to share that with you. Have a fantastic evening, and thank you for being a great coach, client, and friend to me!"
