you...been following your journey all the way. and
loving you as well...your path has helped people to look
inside themselves for the answers and perhaps, along the
way of discovery, has helped to make this world a more
peaceful place to live...isn't that what it is all
about?" CD and Sharon
"Thank you again Chandra! If I may say so you are damn
good at what you do and wonderful company!" Sincerely,
Pam
Just a quick note to tell
you how just watching you on TV for the few
minutes you were being interviewed has impacted my life
in such a positive manner! Thank you for the words that
jumped off the set and into my heart. I am so grateful
for the words "you must feel to heal" and I use this
reminder multiple times, daily. Thank you. Thank you for
giving me peace of mind and for helping my eyes focus on
the future, instead of the rear view mirror.

Chandra,
I LOVE your daily lessons! They have helped me so much.
And both your books were wonderful. (Yes, I
trashionalized all the time!) And, good news - my
husband I were getting divorced. I made him read parts
of your books, which were SO us! He has now agreed to go
to counseling for 6 months. In exchange I won't file for
divorce during that time , giving him time to straighten
up. Who knows what will happen during that time, but
both of us are finally happy with ourselves. yay.
Keep up the good lessons! Viva Las Vegas.

Hi Chandra,
My name is Catherine and I'm 45 years old, been married
for 25 years with 3 children (20 ,18 & 12). This morning
I just happened to be watching TV and caught you on the
Daytime show talking about anti-depressants. Four weeks
ago my doctor put me on Lexapro. My family had mixed
emotions about me being on medication but they wanted me
to try it since I've been extremely moody for the last
two years. During these last 4 weeks I haven't felt much
but you put a label on it this morning calling it "flat-line"..which
couldn't describe it better. You are right, I'm not
depressed, I'm sad....with maybe a little anger thrown
in.
So I just wanted to say thank you for being at the right
place at the right time this morning. I'm holding on to
the things you said, I'm calling my doctor for
directions on how to get off this medication before
feeling nothing becomes comfortable. Thank you, thank
you.

productivity, very high moral, very low drama, and

that helps me stay grounded. It’s called Reality Works,
Let It Happen (Red Wheel, 2002) by Chandra Alexander.

To Whom It May Concern:
January 2003, Dr. Jack Guggino, CEO of Guggino Family
Eye Center, engaged Ms. Chandra Alexander as a business
coach to assist us in gaining a more cohesive,
productive working environment. She has successfully
worked with our physicians and administrative staff as
well as participated as a guest speaker to our general
staff. She has proven to be wise, spirited and
intuitive. Her approach is very direct and she gets to
the core of issues quickly.
Since working with Ms. Alexander our staff retention and
morale among the doctors and employees has considerably
improved. We continue to use a more positive,
straightforward, centered means of communication that
has resulted in improving the harmony of our office. We
are able to handle issues in a much more organized and
expedient manner.
On a personal note, I have gained personal insight and a
higher level of confidence. If you are prepared to
interact with a very straightforward, direct, wise and
intuitive coach, I recommend Chandra Alexander to your
organization without hesitation.
Sincerely,
Paula M. Callahan, Practice Administrator

This is a letter of recommendation for the business and
personal coaching skills of Chandra Alexander, MSW.
Chandra began working with our physician,
administrators, and staff in January, 2003. She was
hired to evaluate and help us resolve several issues.
These included differing personalities and leadership
styles amongst the physicians, communication
difficulties between the owners, administration, and
staff, and general discord in goals and management
styles.
It is of interest that we had spent a great deal of
hours and dollars on various other consultants including
some specifically trained in our type of medical
practice and a some with high powered credentials such
as Ph.D.’s. None of these had provided us with the
harmony, organization, team-player approach which we
desired and knew was vital to enjoy and continue to
succeed in our rapidly growing practice.
Chandra was able to QUICKLY and astutely point out the
personality issues and communication problems which were
blocking our team from progressing and working well
together. Her most amazing asset is her ability to
“read” people’s personalities after spending a very
short time with them. She takes a no-nonsense approach
to dealing with issues and very confidently confronts
and addresses the areas which she feels need to be
changed. It is refreshing and encouraging to have
someone be so direct and so accurate in her assessments
of the problems. To follow this, she always has
excellent ideas and suggestions for change and
improvement.
Our doctors and administrators worked in groups and
individually with Chandra and were left with a much
better understanding of how to work with the various
personalities in our group to achieve our common goals.
Each of us had to make specific changes and understand
how to come together as a team. None of the other
consultants had been able to achieve the results we have
seen since we employed Chandra. Our office now functions
with extreme efficiency and productivity, very high
moral, very low drama, and outstanding team spirit. I
cannot sing Chandra’s praises loudly enough in this
letter. If you are open to her insight, she will bring
it with strength, confidence, and accuracy.
Sincerely,
Dawn R. Bhasin, M.D.
Ophthalmologist and Oculoplastic Surgeon
Vice President, Guggino Family Eye Center

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to enthusiastically endorse Chandra
Alexander as a counselor and motivational speaker.
Initially I met Ms. Alexander through my profession as a
trial attorney and subsequently became a client.
Ms. Alexander is one of those rare individuals who have
the ability to touch the lives of those around her in an
incredibly positive way. I believe this stems not only
from her many years of experience as a counselor but
also from the high quality of her character and desire
to help others.
As a trial attorney, I am exposed to many experts in a
broad spectrum of fields. Few exhibit the
professionalism and knowledge within their chosen
profession, as does Ms. Alexander. The dedication she
brings to continually improving herself in her career
and in assisting others as they confront the trials and
tribulations of life is truly inspiring.
In short, Ms. Alexander would be a true asset to any
individual or company who retained her services. I can
say without hesitation she would improve the lives and
work of anyone with whom she came in contact.
Very truly yours,
Stephen A. Barnes, Attorney at Law
Abrahamson, Uiterwyk, & Barnes
