About Orly
How did it all start?
My name is Orly Katz, and as you can see, I’m a Life,
Business and Career Coach for women.

I live with my family – my husband and three children – in the Middle East, in Israel, in a beautiful city called Haifa.

For many years I've worked with thousands of women from all over the world, from all walks of life and from many different backgrounds.

But let's not put the cart before the horse.
I'm sitting here trying to recall how it all started…

Years ago, all of a sudden, my husband’s work required that we leave everything and move to the U.S. (Many might wonder why I found that traumatic. Patience. It will all become clear…)
And so we found ourselves, my husband, my two kids and I, facing a dramatic change in our lives, after we’d rooted ourselves in our country, built a family and established a home.
Now we had to leave it all: relatives, friends, language, culture…
I didn’t realize then how much I would miss everything.
We arrived in the U.S. and started a new chapter in our lives:
My husband began his new job, my children went off to preschool and elementary school, and I – who had always been occupied by work – was now staring at the walls of a strange house.
I was alone and had no job, no connections, no friends, no extended family, and no routine. I, who always liked to get dressed and go out to meet people, found myself sitting day after day at home, in my sweat suit and slippers.
The person who'd always known where she was headed and was
filled with energy and motivation was now sinking into
uncertainty and negativity.
A chorus of unfamiliar negative voices took refuge in my ears and started chanting to me.

At some point, I realized I couldn't go on that way because no good would come of it. I needed to take myself in hand and act.
I met another woman in a similar state, and we began to compare notes. Gradually, we met others, and we understood we weren't alone. The things we were feeling were the things all women felt –
Israelis, Americans, native or foreign. The penny dropped. I knew  what I needed to do...







I decided to open a cultural center for women.
It would operate in the morning hours and would provide women with activities,
topics of interest, and coaching. It would be both a social gathering place and a source
of information for all women in the area. It would offer courses, lectures, and workshops
on all sorts of topics.

About six months passed between the spark of the idea and the center's opening date.
It was a fascinating six months, in which I met many women who cooperated with me and were pleased
to take part in the initiative. And that is how I began my "Women's Mornings" center. From that point on,
I led courses, coaching sessions and workshops for women, personal and business-oriented, on growth
and development. I encouraged all participants to change, initiate, dare, and add a bit of spice
to their lives in order to live life to the fullest rather than view it from the sidelines.

I was filled with an amazing sense of satisfaction, involvement, and challenge that pushed
the negative voices aside. My negative thoughts were replaced by new ideas, exciting activities,
motivation, and the joy of creation.

I started getting requests for workshops from women in other areas, and that is when I began
traveling throughout the U.S., conducting personal and business coaching sessions for an even
wider spectrum of interesting women.
I discovered that most of us women tend to be highly self-critical, but we are all willing to open up,
listen and learn how to rid ourselves of this negative trait and focus on what is really important
to us. Women everywhere, are basically composed of the same stuff…

I developed a model consisting of Six Codes that help us, as women, identify what it is we truly
want and how we can go about attracting that desired reality into our lives. My model incorporates
the Law of Attraction. It takes more than positive thinking to achieve the things we long for.
We must also act. The Six Codes of the model offer every woman a new way of attaining self-fulfillment.

As my success using the model continued, I decided that I should – must, really – write a book
on the subject and share the technique with a much wider circle of women. Because if I can do it,
anyone woman can.

And so, in 2005 my first book, To Each Her Own Dizzy, was published in Israel.
And in 2007, I was blessed with two wonderful new arrivals in my life: one was my third child,
Itamar, and the other was my second book – Women, Decode the Law of Attraction.

One response I get from many women is, "Orly, I've got no desires. There's nothing I passionately
want." And I have a very simple answer for them: "No woman is without desires, passions, and dreams.
Sometimes, we have to clear away the dust or pry off the layer of caked-on mud. Then we'll discover
the things we long for and bring back the sparkle in our eyes. We'll feel absolutely great at the
start of each new day.

And now, dear friends, the time has come to share my personal dream and vision with you.
I welcome you, wholeheartedly, to enter the picture along with me.

What I envision is women of all types and backgrounds, reading my book and making practical use
of the Six Codes – which are so simple yet so effective. These women are learning to recognize
their desires and passions and how to attract them into their lives. They are learning how to fulfill
themselves, achieve the things they truly desire, and bring the sparkle back to their eyes.

And back to me… I realized that I have found my direction in life and that life, business and career
coaching, in addition to working with women, are my goals that have become my destiny.

Today, I live with my husband and three kids back in my country, Israel, and I’m the owner of
O.K Coaching – Life & Business Coaching Center.

Yes, if you really want something it will happen… Dreams can come true…

Coaching has helped me discover my mission in life and fulfill my potential.
I’m sure it can do the same for you!
