Client testimonials
“Pasha presented to the WNBA Rookies on Draft Day and offered on site support. Her knowledge, insights, and communication style is valuable and highly regarded. Additionally, Pasha has an impressive and unique combination of collegiate athletic experience and business savvy that I think makes her an excellent resource and invaluable asset to the team.”
"I had the pleasure of listening to Ms. Cook speak at the UConn Sport Business Conference, where she told us all about her G.R.O.W.T.H. model and how it can lead to success in our futures. Having her give the closing remarks at the end of the day was the perfect way to re-energize the students and give them a great take home message. I think everyone in the room left the day with more motivation and a greater sense of belief because of her.”
"Looking for someone to help your SAs explore their hidden possibilities on and off the court? Look no further. Pasha Cook will create instant rapport and have your SAs on the edge of their seats as they discover who they are, what they want, and how to get it. It is an inspiring and transformative experience for student athletes, coaches, and administrators. I highly recommend her."
“From the moment Pasha spoke, she captured the attention of the students and several gravitated to her after the program for more information and individual advice. The parents in attendance asked if we could have Pasha back again to further her discussion about the importance of setting goals, never giving up, pursuing non-traditional careers and not being afraid to pursue one’s dreams. Pasha has a genuine talent for motivating people that she is just beginning to realize.”
