Testimonials
Read what people are saying about Life Coach, Toronto native Bruno LoGreco:
"Thank you Bruno, You've changed my life.
"If I had to sum up my experience with Bruno in one word, it would be "awakened." Bruno helped me see life from a different perspective which is what I needed, but most importantly showed me how to do that myself without being dependant on him. He got me to let go of old patterns of behaviour and got me from being stuck in the past, to fully present in the future. I got a new look and a new attitude, and established some new behaviours like working out on a regular basis that have totally enhanced all areas of my life and made me feel more connected to life than ever before. I used to feel detached from life and would watch it pass me by, but now I'm fully engaged and loving every moment of being alive. Most importantly, Bruno got me to step outside of my comfort zone and do things I normally wouldn't have done otherwise, which is undoubtedly the key to growth. I learned that attitude is a choice, and your thoughts determine what manifests in your life. I realize now that the reason I was stuck in a rut in the past for so long is because of what I was focusing on. I was focusing on what wasn't working instead of what I needed to do to make things work. It's the law of attraction, and that's what brought me to Bruno in the first place. When the student is ready, the teacher appears. I wanted to change, and needed that little extra push, motivation, and inspiration. My confidence has improved dramatically because I no longer hold myself back from doing the things I truly want to do. I don't second guess or doubt myself or fear being judged by other people anymore because it's my birthright to be happy and when you come to the end of your life you can either look back upon it with regret and say "I wish I would have, I wish I could have, I wish I should have" or you can say "I did it all, thank you and goodnight." I now set goals on a regular basis and with each one I conquer I set my sights on bigger and better things. One of the most important things I took from Bruno was to dream big, because the only limitations are the ones you create. Bruno truly loves what he does and his caring and sincerity was evident from the first moment I met him. He's the type of person I've always wanted to surround myself with. I look forward to continued mentorship even after the 12 week program is complete. If you're reading this testimonial and considering changing your life, do yourself the favour and don't put it off any longer. You can't put a price on happiness. My overall well-being is in the best place it's ever been, and it only continues to reach new peaks daily. Thank you Bruno, you've changed my life."

"A Tribute To Bruno LoGreco Who Helped Me See Light At The End Of The Tunnel
My name translates into "Light at the end of the Tunnel". Below I write an account of my experience with an incredible human being who helped me see this light.
Enroute to my home country, I touched down at Schipol Airport for 6 hours. My thoughts wandered off and I thought back of the stressful seven months that I had just experienced. I was now on an even more stressful mission - visiting my elderly and sick family in Dar Es Salaam. In contrast to the hustle and bustle of the busy Schipol check-point, a sudden calm reigned inside me for a quick instant. I recollected the last seven months; completing five undergraduate courses having written my last exam written on April 20, 2010, three days prior to my departure, handing over my job to a temporary staff having already dealt with my team's main priorities, and sailing through an enormous financial storm resulting from a series of uninformed transactions. Seven months ago I would have seen all this as an impossibility not to be contended with. Seven months ago, I would have looked at all this as unconquerable because I had been filled with such a high degree of negativity, resentment of my horrible past experiences, hatred towards those more successful than I was, impatience at things that were not going my way, and a huge ego that was pulling me down every second I tried to achieve something. I still have remnants of these vices left in me which I sincerely hope that Bruno will continue to help me erase in the next little while.
Bruno! What a life-saver! What an amazingly incredible human being. I met Bruno LoGreco in October 2009 when I was at my wits end and could not think rationally anymore. Bruno told me months later that I was almost maniacal. Well, I am not anymore or else you would not be reading this account. Bruno has shown me that there is a huge world of possibilities out there. He has taught me to believe in myself and reach out for that self-worth and self-respect that dwells inside me. He told me that I was a beautiful human being worth every bit as the next person on the street that I would meet. He dared me to recover! And recover I did.
In October 2009, I could still not get rid of memories of a horrible love-hate relationship I had experienced over a year and a half earlier. My friends laughed at my weakness and told me to get into another relationship to eradicate the hurt of this not so recent tribulation. I did not believe this. I thought of all that I had given into that relationship - EVERYTHING - and how I had gone almost bankrupt trying to match up to my ex's expectations. I spent my time pondering over what went wrong and why I did not even get an opportunity for a closure. All this was not leading to anything and idling about teary-eyed was adding to the immense stress in my life.
One day, I spoke with my girlfriend in the UK. She had gone through a similar experience and urged me to get a Life Coach. I had absolutely no idea what this person would do. She explained that s/he would help me get onto my feet again. So I ventured about making telephone calls, surfing the web, and searching the 411 directory. I found six people who seemed to be great professionals both in Canada and the US but it was Bruno that appealed to me instantly. I remember our first phone call. Bruno was in middle of a Television segment, "Style by Jury". When I heard him on the phone, I felt this sudden calm inside me that I spoke of earlier in this text. I heard that easy laughter and warmth in his voice and I felt that I had to go see him. I was an avid fan of "Style by Jury" because everything always worked out for these wo/men in the end but I soon found out that really, there is a lot of hard work involved - mostly on the candidate's part. As you will read on, Bruno would later explain this to me during our sessions.
When I found out where Bruno was located, I was really dismayed. I live in Toronto East and he was situated in Richmond Hill. This would mean about an hour and a half to two-hour journey to reach him each way. But there was something in Bruno's voice that propelled me all the way to Richmond Hill that first day. There was an instant connection and deep humility about this person that belied his sheer confidence and high level of sophistication splayed all over his website, www.brunologreco.com. I have to admit that I had been a little overwhelmed of his web credentials.
I met Bruno in the lobby of his apartment. He was so personable, with an open, warm, and welcoming smile. He was unassuming, reassuring, but extremely confident and direct. I could already imagine those brown eyes turning steely if something went amiss. At his apartment, I instantly felt at peace. Bruno's space was a mirror-image of his personality, uncluttered, classic, comfortable, with straight, elaborate lines laced with a touch of curvy softness here and there that lent added warmth to the almond and dark chocolate decor. I was enveloped in this warmth and felt very much at ease. Notice how many times I use the word "warm".
To my utter astonishment, after having given Bruno only a few bare details amid two springs of tears, he began to read me like a book. He started stealing words from my mouth - my disappointments, my regrets, the emotional abuse from so many people that I had met, my childhood and adulthood experiences, my relationships, my jobs - he seemed to know it all. From the questions he asked me on that very first day, he deduced that my major problem was me. I had neglected myself and because of the treatment I had received in my childhood, I had begun to think that everyone was treating me in that same manner. I hated myself. I paid for and bought gifts and services for people so they could like me. I was a broken, people-pleaser. Bruno made me feel whole again. He made me see how other people could not matter if I had my own goals. Bruno made me see that I needed to take care of myself. Slowly, he asked me to go back into my childhood and encouraged me to love my inner child. He asked me to love myself and make peace with my soul. He asked me to abandon my past and be free again. Bruno let me see how my past was a hindrance to my developments in the present and future.
Bruno taught me not to judge people. He taught me that it was pointless to seek validation from others. If we love ourselves and respect who we are then we do not need validation of others. During the period of my sessions, Bruno would call me up to see how I was doing and send me encouraging emails. He was kind, gentle and very patient.
I felt needed and gradually became confident enough to deliver a speech in front of 150 people and some provincial authorities. Prior to my speech event, Bruno helped me stage it, listened to it, and critiqued it. I was able to improve the final version and deliver it with confidence. For a person who had never spoken formally in public, I did an excellent job and got good reviews of it.
Bruno reassured me that I was perfect and that I should believe it. He encouraged me to apply for jobs. He made me understand how I was responsible for consequences of my choices. When I first went to see Bruno, I was a broken woman, totally unsure of myself, second-guessed my every move, doubted my abilities, hated my persona, and was pretty teary and troubled. In fact, every little event would render me into tears and a terrible sense of helplessness. Bruno brought back the sparkle, the shine, and the smile back into my heart and in my eyes. He took away the tears and darkness and brought back the peace in my heart. My friends noticed the difference and commented on it. Bruno made me see that it was not so bad after all - that there were worse people out there. I began to look at everything with a positive attitude and vowed that I would accomplish anything that I would put my mind onto. I completed a huge ordeal - a visit my parents - five courses in seven months, and am now moving on to another five in the next few months.
Bruno taught me what a great Italian Humanist, Leon Battista Alberti had once said, "A man can do anything if he but wills".
Thank you Bruno for helping me find that light in the tunnel and bringing it back into my eyes and my heart.

"Please accept the biggest thanks I can possibly give for your coaching and mentoring. You've uncovered my passion and got me moving forward on the 2'nd part of my career; I'm totally motivated. Your insight, skills and on-going encouragement have moved me with purpose to being in a fullfilling and rewarding career and a life that I am now in total control of!"
— Craig (Toronto, Ontario)
"I contacted Bruno at a time in my life when everything in my life had come to a full stop. At the age of 28, just after recovering from a complicated medical condition and being jobless, I was going through an early-life crisis. I was confused about my life path and anxious, scared, and angry with the lack of direction in my life. Bruno helped me realize how the false beliefs I held about myself and about my life led to my confusion. He helped me see how my beliefs kept me stuck in a place I no longer wanted to be in. He then taught me how to eliminate my false beliefs and create new beliefs that served me better. Throughout the entire time Bruno was extremely caring and he demonstrated a lot of patience with me while I was on my journey of self-discovery and the discovery of my full potential. He believed in me when I found it hard to believe in myself. He raised my level of self-awareness so that I may see the true person that I am which helped raise my self-esteem and self-confidence. Bruno is extremely talented and well qualified at what he does. He adapted his program to perfectly match my needs. He showed me how to focus on what truly matters and taught me how to create goals and a vision for my future. Each time I met with him he had a plethora of good advice and he was a great support in my times of need. Bruno's astounding insight about life, success, happiness, and fulfillment challenged my attitude and beliefs and helped me arrive to the place I find myself in today. Over the last few months I have learned so much about myself. Bruno has taught me how to proceed in life on my own and be the best person possible. I not only have a direction in life now but I am heading in a direction that is fully compatible with who I am. I also have a job! Working with Bruno is the best decision I have made to date"
— Ivana (Oakville, Ontario)
"Within the first month of seeing Bruno I felt a difference. I quickly became aware and conscious of my choices. He has such an uplifting and inspiring spirit it's almost infectious. There is no way not to want to learn from him and feel fulfilled in life with his coaching and support. I personally feel and have been told that I am in a different head space and can take on challenges that I may not have been able to prior to starting with Bruno. He definitely knows his stuff and his experience shows in his coaching - I would definitely recommend him!"
— Geoffrey (Toronto, Ontario)
"When I first met Bruno, I focused on everything that wasn't happening in my life. I was living in fear, yet I had and still have an amazing life, but I wasn't joyful about it! Bruno helped me understand Ego, and he helped me heal my inner child. I now live in awareness of my behavior(s) and am able to use the tools he taught me to recognize how I react to life circumstances and why and to have a great perspective on life and how to live a joyful one! I am in love with my life, and I am a great manifester! Thank you, Bruno, for giving me what I needed in order to live the life of my dreams!"
— Tricia (Boston, Massachusetts)
"I came to Bruno at an opportune time in my life. Overwhelmed with obstacles and very large speed bumps in the road he helped me slow myself down and really ask myself which direction I'm going in, and what really matters! For the first time I believe I did some real soul searching and with the warmth of a true friend. Bruno helped me come to terms with who I really am, and that hey its really not all that bad! The good characteristics with the bad I learned not only to come to terms with the bad but also how to love myself for the good. I also learned how to control them, and even more important to recognize them in my day to day. Starting life and my career on my own young and fast meant for alot of hard learning lessons early in life! As I still go through them and as I continue for the rest of my days I will see things differently after a few short months with Bruno. I will always remember the lessons he has taught me, continue setting goals whether I feel like they are out of reach or not, and forever be able to love myself for who I am."
— Christine (Toronto, Ontario)
"Bruno has been a tremendous help to me in the past few months he has made me see and realize
things i never would be able to on my own. I feel like now im able to face my future with much more
clarity. Bruno has made me see that my life is important and that always doing for everyone else isnt
going to benefit me and my future. My future seems a lot brighter thanks to Bruno after teaching me
that its okay to sometimes be selfish. Bruno has been there if needed 24/7 and jiust to bounce thoughts
and feelings off of him when needed has been a tremendous help to me. Bruno is an inspiration for sure and
through him ive made a friend who is not only there as a life coach but a great support to me anytime i need it."
— Karen (Richmond Hill, Ontario)
"I came to Bruno with no focus, self confidence, and lacking self awareness. within weeks of meeting with Bruno, my self confidence started to rise, I grew a better understanding of who I was, and I started developing a clear focus on my goals and ambitions. Bruno has been instrumental in helping me turn my life around."
— Scott (Markham, Ontario)
"Working with Bruno as my life coach changed my life drastically for the better in a matter of three months. I had spent more than 38 years searching for a sense of family - a feeling of being home. Having grown up in a somewhat dysfunctional home (who hasn't), I recognized that I had some internal scars. I did my share of conventional therapy and I considered myself a happy, insightful, well adjusted individual. Underneath it all there was always a void. At times, prominent, and at other times the feeling of loneliness would fade into the background. Being aware that only I could fill the void inside me, I spent years searching for ways to accomplish this. I felt I had been quite successful. I had settled with a sense of happiness combined with being accustomed to the void. After living with the void your whole life, you don't know how it feels to be without it. It becomes part of you.
I contacted Bruno and asked him to be my life coach for reasons that had nothing to do with filling my void. Like most people I had not really figured out the true nature of my underlying wish. As we embarked on my journey we eventually encountered the root of what I really wanted. I just wanted to feel like all would be okay. I wanted to feel that I was whole without the void. I wanted to feel that I was home. Bruno helped me get there. When Bruno first told me he could help me fill the void, I cried. I felt this profound sense of gratitude and hope. Could it be?! Getting there was not always an easy journey. I had to dig up a lot of pain and there were times when I wanted to quit. But Bruno was always right there in my corner, supporting me, pushing me when I needed it. Most importantly, he listened. For the first time, I was being heard and I felt understood. I can never repay Bruno for the gift he gave me. When someone comes along and brings to your life the one thing you wanted the most in order to feel at peace - to feel whole - how can you possibly repay them? I cannot repay Bruno, but I can pass on what he gave to me. I can tell you, the reader, that Bruno has a special gift. I am just one among many clients whose life he has touched in the most profound way. I urge you to join us. Be next."
— Amy (Boston, Massachusetts)
"There is not enough words to describe Bruno's talent... Bruno LoGreco is an extraordinary individual and Life Coach. I NEVER thought this day will ever come for me. Bruno helped me overcome my fears, something I thought I could never overcome. Bruno believed in me when I did not believe in myself, his strength and determination to make me see what I could not see. I live life now not having to worry about my fears pushing me away from what I want. I will no longer run from life. I now will be able to sleep at night knowing that I don't have to fight the pain anymore. It was time that my inner self was found. Bruno, you changed my whole world. I can smile for no reason again, you touched my life in such a way that no one ever did. You came into my life and brightened it. You brought out the best in me. You made me love myself... I don't know how to Thank-u, for allowing me the opportunity to learn from you when it comes to facing fears. Thank you for showing me the path and for always caring and giving it all you had, and always staying by my side through thick and thin, and giving me the courage when I needed it. You helped me grow and learn. I have my own identity again, thanks to you. You have definitely touched my life in every possible way...You are my mentor and now my friend...You are my inspiration."
— Anna (Toronto, Ontario)
"Here I stand at a new place in life. I have awareness, happiness, and-above-all peace within. I look back at where I was when I met Bruno and I see a man who used his gifts to guide me. Bruno did not think for me, choose for me, or act for me; he taught me how to think, choose, and act for myself. He showed me how to use what I already have inside for my own benefit. He taught me to be aware of everything and also bothered by nothing. What sets Bruno apart from others is the ability to shoot straight for the heart of the matter and make it undeniable in it's presence. Once you know what tools you have and how to use them, you can build anything you want."
— Sue (Warren, Pennsylvania)
"Bruno has amazing insight and knowledge about life, success, and happiness. His expert advice and methods will bring you to levels you never thought possible. All it takes is one visit, and you will understand how he can help you unleash your true potential in life. I Highly recommend his 12 week Success program."
— Tyler (Toronto, Ontario)
"I began working with Bruno three months ago. At that time, I felt that my life was purposeless, and that I was going through the motions, earning a living, but not building a life. I felt "stuck" as so many of us do in a very unsatisfactory career that was merely furthering someone else's vision and not making use of my innate talents. After having been through lots of traditional and also unorthodox therapies, I realized that nobody had worked with me in terms of my real purpose. I had a lot of information but did not make lasting and fulfilling change because I didn't know how to, or even whether or not I could.
I could not see my way past my current circumstances because of my faulty belief systems. In addition, I needed to further my awareness and find a way to begin to apply it in a practical manner. Doing this allowed me to detach from my current situation and believe that another kind of future was available to me after all.
Through diligently working with Bruno, I now believe in myself, have a vision for my future, and I am excited about life again. Bruno provides non-judgemental, highly intuitive and accurate support, and breaks open those faulty belief systems that can allow us to bring a negative past into the present, hindering us from living our best life. He is a maverick in the Life Coaching industry and was able to move me out of a 20 year long detour and back onto my path. Incredible!!"
— Julia (New York, New York)
"Before Bruno stepped in I felt my family was slowly degenerating right in front of my eyes. We were all living complete, disconnected separate lives in one household. Then I enlisted the help of Bruno and that was the best call I ever made. Now, we can see a change in the way we interact as a family and we are making the effort to make it a family unit."
— Marilyn (Scarborough, Ontario)
"Bruno, you are without a doubt the most no nonsense,
high energy, inspirational, genuine article. With
your daily inspirational e-mails and your nudging guidance,
(albeit sometimes a gentle nudging and in my case mostly
a hard nudging, as I so often need to be “pushed” back
into reality), you have a natural instinct about people
and more importantly about where people should be in
their lives, so when you find one like me who is so off
the “road to success”, I can only say Thank
you for taking the time and care to set me back on track. I
always knew that success was supposed to be measured
by doing what makes you happy and by doing what comes
naturally, as a gift if you will, but sometimes life
gets too busy and we all can lose sight of our goals
and gifts. When this happens, it’s important
to know that there is someone out there that can get
us back on track, Bruno, you are that person, my mentor,
my life coach. Thank you for giving me the tools,
inspiration and positive reinforcements to know that
I am special and deserve all the greatness that life
has to offer."
— Alexandria (Toronto, Ontario)
"Through his insightful and constructive approach,
Bruno has inspired and motivated me to transform my
life from one of drudgery and dissatisfaction to a life
of setting goals, conquering fears and consequently,
seeing that life can be so much better than I had come
to believe."
— Laura
(Aurora, Ontario)
"You have definitely touched my life. You have
taught me that you need to love and be happy with yourself
first before anything else. Also, you are very positive
and it rubs off on people... Your choice of words are
inspirational. You make people believe that anything
is possible, just believe in yourself and think positive."
— Anne-Marie (Richmond
Hill, Ontario)
"Your boundless energy and enthusiasm always
leave me inspired to do my best, to break through whatever
artificial barriers I have created in my own mind. You
are a living example of the laws of attraction and positive
thinking. I like to think that my own positive thinking
attracted you into my life, and I am so grateful for
your ongoing encouragement, wisdom, and love of helping
others."
— Pam
(Raritan, New Jersey)
"Bruno, from the first time we met you've encouraged
and inspired me that all goals are possible and it's
just reinforced with your inspirational e-mails every
morning, which I love. You don't just talk the talk,
but you walk the walk so that alone is impressive. I
never hear I can't from you. Those words don't exist
in your world. To be 32 years of age and have such insight
and direction is truly commendable. I will never give
up on what needs to be accomplished, thanks to you. Oh,
and thanks for never judging me, no matter how foolish
I sound at times. You're my 2007 gift...."
— Linda
(New York, New York)
"Bruno has helped me stay focused on staying positive
and consistently expanding my thoughts about life. I
have referred him to a good friend of mine who needs
positive inspiration and guidance. People like Bruno
have a gift and some people think that people like him
are like angels who help people see the light gifts the
higher power for insight. Thanks Bruno."
— Scott
(Toronto, Ontario)
"There are many ways you have impacted my life,
but one that sticks out in my mind, is that when I wake
up every morning, I look forward to your emails. What
I have learned to appreciate through you is that life
deals us all the same number of cards, how we choose
to play them is up to us...in the end, I CHOOSE, what
cards I want to play and which cards I choose to lay
down. (This my friend is the most difficult task...knowing
when to fold them) I wake up every morning, waiting for
you (the dealer I guess), to help set the landscape and
advise on how to handle the cards I have now!!) So you
my friend, have become my dealer. I want to now reach
your level and I know I have the ability and its insight...."
