Testimonials

“Your ability to see people, the truth of who they are, and safely guiding them to see themselves and their potential for healing and growth.”

“You masterfully ride the fine line between holding my feet to the fire and compassionate patience.”

“A hot topic right now for me is “loving yourself”. That’s a big job and you hear it all the time. What are the steps in loving yourself? I’m on that journey right now.”

“You challenge folks by asking deeper questions and not allowing them/me to settle for the status quo. You also cut to the chase enabling more opportunity for bigger breakthroughs.
You don’t allow folks to lie to themselves.
You hold space for them to take a bigger leap. You seek/tell the truth.”

“Ms. James has been volunteering by providing “Healing from Trauma and Abuse’ groups to the females inmates housed in the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Detention Facility. The four week program was designed to give females tools and skills to help them deal with past trauma and abuse. As of June 2010, approximately 35 women have graduated from the program. The request to attend these voluntary classes has been overwhelming at times. Feedback from inmates attending classes has been very positive and we view the information presented as not only necessary from a health/educational point of view, but of valuable assistance in behavioral management of a large population. I strongly support her and commend her for doing a great job”.

“You cut through all of my filters and shot me into a bright white light.”

“It’s been awhile since I’ve had a workshop with you And the authenticity and energy you share stays with me always. You mirror to us our inner strength and power. Thank you for your Light, your Work, and your Love 🕉💜 “

“I now listen to my heart.”

“What I appreciate about you is how grounded you are in possibility while still being able to access your past – I find this allows me to relate to you on a more even playing field. I see before me someone who has been where I have been, can meet me in that place and has achieved the very thing I am trying to achieve and is clearly living life to the fullest. I love (most of the time) your unwavering focus on what I am holding on to or still doing (whether I am fully aware of it or not) and the knowing that ‘I am better than that’ – but not in a judgmental way, more in a champion and knowing what I am capable of way. I love the awareness you hold about women and our place in the world and how for generations, we have been held back by others as well as ourselves and that now is the time for the self-imposed bondage to be dissolved and now is the time for us to stand together, supporting each other, into our greatness. And I love the energy of how you hold your cultural background as powerful, sacred and beautiful with a complete absence of ‘better than’.

Thank you for walking your talk, modeling for me and so many other women what it looks like to do your work, stand in your power and make a f**king difference!

I love you!”

“Cynthia James message is here to inspire the soul. She will help you discover life changing truths and guide you with loving care. Believe and you will receive.”

“Inspiration. A reminder to take care of myself. A reminder to delve into the uncomfortable areas where real growth can happen.”

“Cynthia has been my leadership coach for 18 months. She has supported me in my leadership style, working with staff, initiating better self care and accountability. I have found her to be insightful, authentic and honest in her work with me.”

“I have had the privilege to teach three evenings with Cynthia James as part of the class “Science and Spirituality” that I offer at the Colorado School of Mines. It was amazing to see how in her usual warm and natural way she broke through shells and connected with these young people at a deep and meaningful level. These were evenings in which she opened minds and hearts, and empowered students to look into their greater Self and empower that greater Self. This probably was the first time these students attended a class at the Colorado School of Mines where the teacher opened by singing to them, and they truly appreciated this. It was a genuine pleasure to prepare these evenings with Cynthia, which involved a free-flowing exchange of ideas to make these evenings a special experience. Thank you, Cynthia, for bringing your beneficial presence to higher education.”

“I think one of your biggest gifts is that you create safe space (physical, emotional, spiritual) and draw people into that and it allows them to realize a more expansive version of themselves. You do that through your words, your music, your vulnerability. You hold that space Powerfully until they become accountable for who they are.”

“In your very own, unique, face to face, intensely focused, loving, “youcannothidefromyourselforme” modus operandi, you have brought me instantly to the present moment of my Truth. THAT is just ONE of your gifts. And I thank you and love you for that, and so much more, Cynthia James. ❤️ You are a gift.”

Many thanks for making the inaugural United We Serve Award Ceremony so memorable for the award recipients and audience members. Your passion for the topic was apparent and it touched our hearts and minds, motivating us to look for ways to serve.”

“I truly enjoy your talks about staying the course and being focused when it’s both easy and hard. When the outside world is both great and not-so-great, to keep focused on the highest vibration. What that looks like for an individual, what it feels like. Aspirations and goals and how to “maintain” in the knowing. I look forward to hearing you speak and feel your strength as another point of guidance. :) Hugs and here’s to 2020!”

“You hold higher possibilities for what life and the world can be. Uncompromising belief in the highest and best for all people around the planet.”

“Cynthia James is one of the most powerful, authentic and inspiring speakers I know. She engages her audience with passion, brilliance, and the rare capacity to be real and present. She is one of the very best!”

“I was working with my long-term Practitioner in developing a teaching guide for a book she wrote. At one point on a particular topic I said it would be good to break down parts of it to be more bite-sized for some students. She said, “Kathryn, do you believe your students are made of God?” I said, “Of Course”.
She said, “Kathryn, do you need to boil down anything for God? If you speak to your student’s lowest needs, you are cheating them and disrespecting them. If you speak to the God in them, you both are always enriched.”
Cynthia – wherever you are, whether singing, speaking, praying, laughing…. – You always speak at the highest realm. Again, my Practitioner said, “If you love them, you will stand in their wrath and disappointment – and Stay in Principle anyway.”
Keep up the marvelous work, my friend – and stay open for God to continue speaking to the God Essence that is you. Your growth – grows others. ❤️. “

“You have been a powerful force for change in my life. You see the real me and challenge me to also see that in myself, too. But you do it with a deep and abiding love so that I feel safe and am able to trust as you lead me to those scary places within myself. I love you for loving me!”

“The Colorado Behavioral Healthcare Council wishes to thank Cynthia James, for her outstanding performance as a keynote featured speaker, at our 2011 CBHC Annual Training Conference. Cynthia’s keynote on Integrative Technologies: Mind & Body Health at Work, and her singing performance elevated our attendee experience. We would highly recommend her as a speaker and performance artist, and our attendees felt she was a great addition to our annual conference.”

“Cynthia James recently worked with my partners and me in establishing an optimal way of working together in a new business venture. Her approach was thorough, compassionate, insightful and effective in supporting each team member. Most importantly, Cynthia was able to tell the truth and help our team see the truth of what was holding us back from experiencing the most success and satisfaction in our work together”.

You are an incredible teacher, Cynthia 💕 “
