What coachees said:

‘It has been a transformational experience,  which saved me professionally during the most difficult time of my career.’

‘I have already shared the coaching for self-care opportunity with several colleagues. I say it put me back in control when I felt life was getting out of control.’

‘I found the experience extremely beneficial. I was nervous at the start but was immediately put at ease. Conducting it as a virtual meeting didn’t act as a barrier to delving deep into some of the issues I had. [My coach] is very insightful and has provided me with some excellent tools and resources which have helped me feel more confident and more in control.’

‘It can be very helpful in helping you to see clearly where things are going wrong and then to find a way forward.’

‘Go for it. It helped me gain clarity re my choices.’
