Lou DePasquale

Lou has 43 reviews.

Lou spent nearly 7 months with our 23 y/o son David, and his life coaching could not have been more effective. He offered David his cell phone so he could contact him anytime when needed throughout the process. David is now enrolled at the University of Minnesota and going strong with his new life skills. Lou is worth his weight in gold! Jennifer & Greg Dawson St. Paul, MN

8/05/10 - I was very picky when seeking out a life, relationship and business coach. Then I met Mr. Depasquale. His pricing was more than fair and he essentially saved my marriage, family and carpeting business with his experience and teachings. Every step of the way he was in touch with my situation and continually had exceptional ideas for each session. WOW! Our meetings were done here in Sandy, Utah so it was an easy commute for me each time. He also perfomed sessions 24-7 and by phone so that made it so much easier for evening time and my schedule. I cannot say enough great things about Mr. Depasquale and his company Attainment. I am continuing once per week tune up sessions, but I will never forget what he has done for me and my life. God bless.

"When my husband and I were looking for a life coach to help with a boatload of issues we wanted someone who was in our financial range, but also was experienced with a strong track record to actually help people. Our hardest point was to get a free consultation or even a call back. When I emailed Lou for the first time he responded within 20 minutes! After the free consultation, Jeremy and I felt very comfortable. Lou has a way of making you feel like he has known you for years. Each session was always on the ball, and Lou was always upfront and honest with us. Our lives have changed for the better, and Lou was instrumental in this process." - Kathy West - Provo, UT

"I used Lou & Attainment for the Career Recovery Coaching and it worked out well for my resume. I was able to send over my resume in the early afternoon and it came back polished and sharp by later that evening. For only $50 it was nice to also get some perspective on interviewing skills that I deeply needed." -VL - Seattle, WA

" Hey Lou, Just wanted to say thank you for always being there for my life adventures. Knowing that I can call you around the clock just for some quick advice, is something that not even my friends and family can do. I look forward to our time together and you knowing how beneficial and much needed you really are." - Nathan - Las Vegas, NV

"Lou was able to support and teach from his personal experience to help me beat my gambling problem. I am now able to walk into any casino and not worry about the need to be apart of something that once had a handle on me and my family. The best six months of my life was working with lou when I was in dire need to beat this. Never thought I could, but now I have." - S.T. - Sacramento, CA

"Business Coaching was something that my company sorely needed but did not know where to turn. Many business coaches and consultants "think" they know you and your business but do not take the necessary time to understand what will work for you. Lou depasquale was everything that he claimed to be. He approaced my company with open arms and a constructive mind. His fresh thinking, time management and years spent on the road proved that even though the economy is tough, you can still find real people who get the job done." - C.G. - San Francisco, CA

"Thank you for all the time and supreme effort that you gave when working with my sister Lou. She is a whole new person and is doing very well with the family, her friends and of course in work. I never thought that we would get to this point, but I am simply amazed with the results." - P.N. - Dallas, TX
Pam - Texas

"My wife and I could not seem to get on the same page with our finances. Savings, debt and our credit cards were really out of tune. Lou used many tactics from his own personal financial accomplishments and helped us figure out a plan. It all seemed to make sense once we fully understood the common ground of working together for our financial goals." - Allan P. - Pittsburgh, PA
Allan J. Perkins

"Working with Lou was a critical piece in getting my life in gear. I excessively shopped around for other life coaches, but either their pricing was too high or they seemed inexperienced and cookie cutter. Lou's experience and insight was something that I truly needed in my personal relationships and career. He is very energetic and personable, so relating to him was easy through my love of sports and music. I sincerely appreciate all that he has done, and continues to do." - D.K. - Atlanta, GA

"Mr. D, Thank you for renewing my package so we can continue our twice a week sessions. I am very impressed with your experience, guidance and passion. Partnering with you the past year has been something that has become an important outlet for me. Looking forward to the continued support and help. "Getting out what I put in" as you always say! Thanks." - Jeff - Lehi, UT

"Many thanks to Lou and Attainment for the countless benefits in regards to marriage coaching. Lou was able to fuse personal experience and solid teachings for me and my husband to better ourselves. We are seeing a consistent change and major difference every day." - Nance H. - Calgary, AB

"The past few years of my life have been such a challange for me. I have worked in a communications job that was unfulfilling and going nowhere. These sessions inspired me to reach higher and look for a managerial position with a new company (which I just received). LD advised me to never limit my potential and stay in the game. His passion for life coaching motivated me to strive harder for myself." - Chris - Syracuse, NY

"Just a note from a very happy father, thanking you for the drastic changes in which we are seeing in our son. Your hard work and dedication has been a major turning point in his life and ours as well. Lou, without you this would not be possible. Thank you!!!" -Gordon - Toronto, ON

"I found Attainment on Noomi in April of this year. I actually completed 12 telephone sessions and was very happy with lou's advice and guidance for my marriage plus career. The pricing was a perfect fit for my budget and the session times were very flexible on the weekends." - LCA - Tampa, FL

"WOW! Attainment was able to meet my every need and then some. 3 months later, and an amazing change within myself."

"Louie" was the missing piece to our small business puzzle. His franchise experience and war stories were exactly what we needed to build our brand and give our staff the reality coaching that was lacking. His willingness to work around the clock and answer his cell phone on even a Sunday to problem shoot, was a breath of fresh air for Carl and I. As franchisees, it was scary enough to build a business in rough times. But with his help and support, our business is moving forward with a very bright future." -Toni & Carl Wright - California

"Finding Attainment on KSL Utah was the reality that I needed. My lowpoints with finances and career were about to break me. The techniques that Louis used assisted me in making a change. Knowing that I cannot afford to live beyond my means and that I could find a job that made me happy, and more money finally occured to me through Lou's coaching." - Dennis - Orem, UT

"What a difference 6 months can make! Looking at just how far I have come in my overall life progress is staggering. Many big thanks to Louis for his hard work and late night emails for that extra boost of confidence." -Gene R. D. - Asheville, NC

"Lou responded to a post of mine on Yahoo Answers, while I was at such a low-point in life. I instantly contacted him to utilize his experience for myself. At only 28 years old and being a full time student on my own, he was able to relate to me in so many ways. I chose the 12 session package (I think) and cannot fully explain how beneficial each one was. I fully recommend lou for his hard work and commitment to his teachings." -M.K. - Austin, TX

" Dear Lou, Thank you so much for your determination and guidance with Nick. The bond that has developed between you and he, is one that will last forever. As parents, many times we are not able to make the connection like someone with your experience and techniques. We just want you to know that we are eternally grateful for someone like you and your services." - Q & J - San Diego, CA

"Noo-mi Coaching Company emailed me with so many choices for life coaches. But when I talked to you it was an instant connection. Thank you for spending the time (and listening to me ramble) about life and the pitfalls of my previous choices. I am on a new path to freedom and I am so content." -Jill W. - Tallahassee, FL

"I wanted to give my sincerest thank you to Mr. Louis Depasquale for his time, caring and support to my business and life topics. After the six meetings over telephone I was able to get very useful information of what I needed to change. Teaching me new strategies for my business and personal life have turned out to be strengths I never would have found within myself." - Mr. Brandon A. Keet Gauteng, South Africa - 2011

"Thanks so much for your help. Your advice on the lecture was spot on. Could not have gone better, and that was what clinched it. Our sessions were time very well spent. I may call you again for some more sessions if you are game. This a total shift away from what I've done my whole life." - JB - Utah

"Thanks man. Your coaching really put my butt into gear. The college life is going well, as I have just finished my 3rd semester.

We still need to go see a Lightning game when you come this way for work!" -Tyler B. - Tampa, FL

"My partner and I were finding it difficult to retain life coaching services that were GLBT friendly. When we contacted Lou, he responded within 10 minutes that he had many clients from the GLBT community. Upon completion of a consultation we were hooked. Spending over three solid months with Lou was a fantastic decision. Even to this day, we still have bi-weekly sessions to stay on course in our relationship and life goal areas. Lou rocks!" -J & S - Salt Lake City, UT

"Reluctant at first, then excited and now doing great. Thank you does not express the gratitude for the early mornings that you invested into bettering me. The four months I invested back into attainment was perfect. In person would have been cool, but telephone worked without a problem. Thank you again!" -G.F. Evanston, WY

"Lou, we wanted to thank you for the time and commitment when working with Tim. He truly is our pride and joy and we could not have made progress without your assistance and support. I notice other client notes speak of 24-7 support and superior dedication from you. They (as we) know, this is a heavy understatement. Working with Tim at all hours of the night, weekdays and weekends. I have no idea where you find the time (Ha-Ha). Your Attainment Packages were wonderful. Anyway, Evan and I are so very proud of what Tim has done and your genuine helping hand was instrumental." With Love, Evan & Tina (Tim) Meyers Salt Lake City, Utah

"I actually saw an ad for a life and business coach locally, and had a nice laugh to myself. That night I decided to go home and seacrh online for one that might be actually a fit for me. You were at the top of the list. If you recall our consultation was at 4am my time and 2 am your time! Now 2 months later and happy I made the call and the friendship. Best, Layton Harper

"Dear Lou, Thank you for all of your diligent work to balance my personal life issues and my company. As a CEO, I always knew that leading my employees through example would be a n exceptional benefit to not only their well being and the company, but to my well being in addition. It was just a matter of accomplishing this task. Like you say, "It all starts from the top." After a couple years of the AP program, you have shown that you can teach an old dog new tricks." - Barry N. - August 2011 Portland, OR

"Just when I thought I was going to be able to breathe, I found myself gasping for air. I had recently finished navigating through a minefield of personal and business changes. It had been difficult and time-consuming, but I had survived it and was looking forward to enjoying some downtime as a reward. But instead of experiencing the lovely sort of downtime that accompanies a summer break, I found myself awash in a downturn of negative emotions. I knew I was in trouble when I couldn't leave my bedroom for more than five minutes without panicking. It took several hours to beat myself out of bed every morning. My stomach seized up when I thought about going into my office, so I took care of business essentials from my iPad. I went blank when I opened the refrigerator to look for something to eat. I lost the desire to put on makeup. I gained weight. When a family member came into the room to check on me, I stared back at them, unable to decide what to say to them about what was wrong with me. But then, one day (about the time I ran out of clean pajamas), I decided that I had to do something drastic to help myself. After a few stops and starts, I ended up hiring a life coach - a perky man named Lou - to help me locate the trees in my forest. "I think I need someone who doesn't need (or want) something from me to hold me accountable, Lou," I said. "I've got to get back to my office. A whole lot of people will be hurt if I can't pull myself back together. Don't let me get away with whining." "I can do that," Lou promised in his reply email. Lou must have the ability to tell whoppers when they are required, because instead of talking me through some strict-business-owner-needs-to-get-out-of-their-reclining-chair-and-back-to-the-computer routine, he started the process of figuring out how to help me by making me whine about absolutely everything in my life. He poked. He prodded. He questioned. He quizzed. Eventually, Lou located the truth, and the truth was this: I felt responsible for the world, and the world is a mighty heavy object. In the process of trying to hold up the world, I had dropped myself. Lou refused to let me talk about the business. Whenever I tried to discuss it - the worries I had about the world, the economy, the people, and the frustration I felt about being so resistant to enter my office - Lou redirected the conversation. "We'll worry about that later," he'd say. "Right now, we are going to help you sort yourself out. Right now, we are focused on what you want your family to be like. Right now, we are going to focus on making your personal life feel better. Take some time for yourself. Goof off.... Now tell me about those kids of yours again...." There was something about Lou giving me permission to do what my subconscious felt was reckless behavior. And there was something about him requiring that I explain to him over and over again what it is like to have a houseful of adults underfoot that altered my patterns. I started going to the gym in middle of the workday. I started planning meals, shopping for healthy food and cooking because I wanted something good to eat. I took entire Saturdays off. I stopped carrying my cell phone with me 24/7.I became picky about the TV I watched. I read more books. Instead of parking myself in front of the television while eating dinner, I started to gather my family so that we could enjoy talking through the day. I began talking to my husband about my feelings, explaining to him how he could help me deal with the stress. I had some very frank discussions with my adult children about how much money it costs to maintain such a large household, complete with visual aids. I played with my grandbaby for hours, wanting to soak up every minute of her baby-life while it exists. I watched news programs in the middle of the day. I took my daughter to lunch. Basically, I goofed off and did whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted to do it. But then, a funny thing happened in the middle of my goofing off. One Saturday, I unexpectedly found myself sitting at my desk, scrapping a name button for my Scrap Girls signature, just because I wanted to have a little fun. I looked up and sort of gasped. I was in my office. I wasn't suffering. I wasn't sweating. I wasn't panicking. I was having fun - and I wanted to be there. That was the point when I knew everything was going to be okay... and it is. It really is. Thanks, Lou. You're a champ." - R.P. - September 2011

"Attainment Coaching and Lou DePasquale were kind enough to offer a family discount for me and my husband. We chose the Attainment Promotional and it was the best choice we have made together in a many years. Lou went above and beyond his call of duty and talked us through a TON of issues. Many months later we are entirely different people. We both have gone back to basics and are in a (much needed) happier place in life and work. Thanks again Mr. D." B.T & J.K.T - Maryland - 2011

"A close friend gave me a long list of coaches in Utah to call. After making my way through the list and first calling Attainment, I knew there was only one place and person getting a second call back! Mr. Depasquale is amazing. My job was horrid and my kids needed their father back in the game. Attainment and Mr. Depasquale proved time and time again why they are so sought after in the coaching and mentoring field."

Dear Coach Lou, Thank you so very much for your time, teachings and effort with Grady. Once we met you, we knew that you would be a perfect fit for him and us. He would never have made it through college without YOU! His life and relationship skills have greatly improved, in addition to his respect for us, his loving mom and dad. May your amazing skills as a coach bring you nothing but great things in life and profession for years to come... Love, Edith & Troy D. - Skokie, IL - January 14th 2012
