Testimonials
“As the leader of a nonprofit that relies almost entirely on contributed income, I frequently turn to Wes Combs for advice. He carefully discerns his mission of giving and assesses where he can make the most transformational change. Once Wes identifies an organization that embodies that mission, he invests as a donor and becomes a true thought partner. I found his experience in DEI especially helpful when he coached me through a sensitive issue with an employee. Wes sees both sides and helps me to understand the perspective of a philanthropic partner. He will help you identify the change that you are called to make, and to develop a purposeful and impactful approach to your charitable investment.”
“My coaching sessions with Wes have been extremely transformative. Before working with Wes, I often second-guessed my decisions and looked to others to validate them. After a few months coaching with Wes, I have increased self-confidence in my ability to make sound choices. Wes really helped me to understand my core values and how to include activities in my life that will bring me more happiness. Wes’s empathetic and curious leadership style brought out the best in me and coaching with Wes was such a transformative experience for me!”
