Being in a mastermind group led by Mia was such a joyful and successful experience for me,
thanks to her masterful leadership skills. First of all, Mia is exceptional in handling the
logistics of the process, such as organizing the group initially, deciding on the best
platform for communicating, as well as overseeing the details for each session. Second,
Mia is an expert facilitator of the group process. Third, she is very dedicated to the success
of each person in her group and constantly providing invaluable resources. Most importantly,
she has amazing coaching and listening skills so she asks just the right question at the
right time, or can clarify what is being said, or acknowledge someone in that special way, and
that is her "secret sauce" for creating a truly inspiring mastermind experience for everyone.Elizabeth Haines
I became acquainted with Mia after being invited to join a Mastermind group she created for coaches who wanted to expand
their marketing game. Mia's facilitation and support for the group was masterful. She set up rotating positions, so everyone
had an opportunity to experience each aspect of group support (facilitation, timekeeping, managing the Maestro
Conference Calling dashboard, and making and posting notes of commitments). In addition, four spotlights for members
were available every week, so we all had the opportunity to coach and learn from others' coaching and suggestions
every week. The diversity of the group brought in new ideas and resources I would never have known about otherwise. Mia
brought inspiring energy, wisdom, intelligence, and a masterful structure to this group, and I'm taking away ideas and
resources to develop and use long into the future, as well as a blueprint for building my own Mastermind group.Susan Burnett
Napoleon Hill writes about the power of the mastermind in his great book "Think And Grow Rich." He writes
in his 9th principle that “great minds meeting in committee will have lots of fun, and support one
another by giving each other ideas to grow and develop our businesses.” Mr. Hill points out that
great minds must be in sympathy with everyone else in the group. No one knows everything. Therefore,
exchange of ideas and support strengthens everyone in the group. When Napoleon Hill wrote "Think And Grow Rich," he could not have imagined the Internet and tele-conferencing: miracles which could bring coaches across the United States into committee meetings. Mia Turpel has combined the mastermind principle and modern technology to create the miracle we call "The Magnificent And Brilliant Masterminders." What Mia's group has done for me:
Thanks, Mia! James Boswell, DTM
Working with Mia is to experience support, expertise and the rare capacity of someone who "goes the extra mile" for your achievement.
Mia is an excellent organizer and group facilitator, besides having superb coaching skills, and she truly cares about your success. Mia
has impacted my life with her astute ability to coalesce her mastermind group to realize their goals by subtly conducting the symphony
of players. She is an outstanding coach/facilitator, who knows when to ask provocative questions, clarify a statement or interject an
appropriate comment. In addition, Mia has plenty of marketing savvy and has an impressive toolbox of high tech know-how - definitely
needed in this social media blitz world of ours. I wholehearted recommend Mia to anyone who desires to stretch beyond limits to
achieve their best work and their best life.

I can say: I’m in business! I definitely was in the very beginning phases of knowing where to start with my coaching practice. Mia helped me in so many ways by providing many of her favorite business solutions geared solely towards setting up my coaching practice. With her business savvy, she knew exactly where to send me, eliminating a time consuming process of researching it on my own. Mia provided valuable guidance that helped me move forward…I was no longer stuck! Now I am setup and ready to go.“

I found out that Mia was doing Personal Coaching through a general conversation as we were getting to know each other. I have always been interested in any method or training that I could participate in to help me ‘understand me’ and prioritize the things that are ‘important to me’. Many times in talking to friends I am asked ‘What do YOU want’ and I sincerely struggle with that question. I am a ‘people person’ ….a compassionate person who is known for being friendly, funny and helpful. I always make a special effort to engage people and to make them feel comfortable….I am so Damn Nice!
This ‘personality type’ is known for being pulled in way too many directions, becoming overwhelmed, and not really accomplishing anything. I felt I needed assistance with prioritization, organization, empowerment, and self confidence. When trying to explain this to Mia, she was able to help me give a name to my over-arching goal…to become a ‘Competent Organized Energized (COE) Woman’, we then called it COE. During our weekly sessions, I was able to make multiple discoveries about myself and my motivations with the help of my coach. The one thing that I learned is that if I am passionate about something I execute effortlessly. I think about it, organize it and move thru the stages to make it happen without a second thought. I was able to see how I drive, coordinate, and remove any obstacles for a successful outcome on task that I am ‘passionate’ about. Through her observations Mia was very helpful in showing me how to recognize when I was ‘in the flow’ and when I was practicing ‘resistance’. Light bulbs have gone off for me in helping me understand some of the issues I have with myself. I can say that through this time with Mia as my coach I have learned how to compartmentalize by defining a Power Pattern – and aligned with the Power Pattern identifying quick, specific and attainable tasks that can be accomplished and maintainable. Case in point, from an organization standpoint I wanted to ‘de-clutter’. Mia helped me to more succinctly define ‘de-clutter‘ into a Power Pattern….U.S. Mail…on a daily bases - review and throw away junk mail, and discard at least 10 pieces that have accumulated into multiple stacks in my home office. Wow….what a significant difference this pattern has made. The other, and most significant thing Mia helped me with is when she introduced me to the ‘Absolute Yes’ concept. When faced or presented with something by the many people I want to please in my life; if it is not an absolute YES, then it is a NO. I LOVE that…and I got it! I could go on, but most importantly my personal coaching experience has enhanced and made such a significant change in my day-to-day activities. I feel very fortunate to have had this experience, brief as it may have been. I say brief because what it would take to address all the areas that I would love to have Mia’s coaching guidance in would probably take a lifetime….I cannot thank you enough for your insight, patience and inherent talent! I highly recommend hiring Mia Turpel as a coach. Jennifer A. Combs
I hired Mia as my coach, and have been a coaching client of hers from January
through April 2011. During this time, we met weekly in person for 30-minute
coaching sessions. Mia is a remarkable business coach. For over fifteen years, I
was afraid and resistant to my dreams of becoming a writer. She helped me to
explore my resistance and understand why I hang onto my fears, to find joy
again, but more importantly, she helped me to develop an operating system that
breaks down the overwhelming process of writing. I highly recommend hiring Mia
Turpel as a coach.

While I have had my mind on this great idea for 5 years now I was stuck with the daunting task of putting this huge goal into motion. All I could see was the successful end result and all of the items required. Honestly I was fearful of the huge task in front of me until Mia made some wonderful suggestions, gave me ideas, an achievable task level, and the nudge (or should I say shove) of a coach. I started working on my huge project/life goal that very same afternoon. Thank you Mia!!
Shari Brindley
Mia helped me during a very difficult period of unemployment. She helped me realize what my strengths were, how they were beneficial, and helped me use all possible tools in order to get myself back in the workforce. She is very easy to talk to and is always positive and judge free. I highly recommend working with her.

Mia is an excellent coach and communicator. She is high on my list for anyone who is a small business owner looking to increase and streamline their business.

Mia spoke this Spring at the Installation Banquet for Capitol Showcase Chorus of Sweet Adeline’s International. As we thanked the out-going Team and introduced our newly elected Members, Mia encouraged us to consider what it was we were agreeing to take on for the next 12 months as administrative leaders. While the sheer volume of tasks and responsibilities we were looking at could be considered overwhelming, Mia had the ability to take this BIG PICTURE and break it down into much smaller, very achievable steps. Having Mia teach us that we all have Super Powers specific to us as individuals was a “light bulb” moment for many members! By the end of the evening, we were trying to identify the things we “couldn’t do” given our renewed spirit! The entire chorus came away from our event feeling invigorated and ready for action!

Mia is treasure trove of information! Her unique perspective on life and living will both challenge and motivate you. She will challenge you to find your passion in life, and then motivate you to pursue your dreams. I highly recommend her as a speaker for your group or business team meetings.
Paula Canfield
My name is Sherry Scott, I have my own real estate business in Texas, and I am going to school as well. Mia helped me to problem solve, as well as identify and eliminate items in my work/life that were underlying causes of angst. Working with Mia helped me to recognize that in the organization of my workday, I needed to schedule “me” time which has helped me balance business and school. As a result, I feel more productive, more energetic, more organized, and more in control of my life! We all get the same 24 hours and I had to learn how to better organize my time by taking care of “me” first, and Mia has helped me do that! I highly recommend Mia as a coach!
Sherry Scott
Mia is a really dedicated coach who truly appreciates the struggles that entrepreneurs face as they try to build a business while still having a life. She has provided me with a number of new tools to help me in my journey—things I wasn't aware of, but that should make a big difference in my long-term success. What's more, Mia is like a walking business library. She's extremely well-read in the fields of business and personal development, and always has nuggets of wisdom to share. It's my pleasure to work with her and recommend her.
Kathleen Hanover
Mia is a wealth of good information and sound advice. As a coach, she helped me tackle professional challenges by offering her insight and suggestions, and more importantly, keeping me on task. As knowledgeable and professional as she is, however, Mia manages to retain her warm, delightful demeanor. It's a pleasure to talk to her!

Life coaching...I’ve only ever heard of "life coaches" on TV programs and I often wondered what did life coaches do...? However after actually experiencing being coached it was total opposite of what I thought it would be. I found that it enabled me to pick areas of my life that I wanted to improve on...not areas that others thought I should. Mia showed me practical steps how to go about making these changes in my life, and teaching me that I had the ability to change whatever it was I wanted to change and I didn't have to merely put up with things. I learnt so much more about myself than what I could have imagined. I found Mia to be a great coach, she took the time to listen and didn't judge or have preconceived ideas about what area in my life I wanted to improve in, change in, or actually not pursue further. Mia also has a great sense of humor, and the ability to make you feel calm and relaxed. I feel I have been equipped with great practical tools and methods to help enable me to move onto and take the next steps in life. I would definitely recommend having a session a session with Mia…don’t knock it till you have tried it!
