How Coaching Can Help

“Since working with Sara, I have gained confidence and discovered an inner resourcefulness I hadn’t imagined when starting out with a new business. Having Sara as my coach has been a joy. Her approach is inspiring, calm and energising.

She made me feel like I was the only person that matters and managed to get beneath the surface, unafraid to ask the big questions.

Both my professional and personal worlds have been reignited.”

— Christina, Employee Wellbeing Coach, Surrey

“I would completely recommend Sara to anybody who wanted to take back control of their life, and make changes big or small. I have managed to implement boundaries within my workdays, keeping work time for work time and home for rest and leisure. Definitely worth some time to consider how you want your life to be, and with Sara's help, get things that way.”

— Claire, Wellbeing Leader, London

“When I first approached Sara I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to open up and speak honestly about my feelings.  I was struggling with my workload, juggling too many balls and trying to be the best mum and wife I could be. The water had been muddied with no separation between work and home, and working all hours to ensure I did a good job. This was impacting on my relationships in and out of work and I needed help.

Sara encouraged me to speak openly and honestly, she was non-judgmental and enabled me to define what my vision and goals were for my work and private life. Between us we were able to create achievable steps to make sure I could reach my goals. I really valued the regular contact between sessions to ensure I was working towards my targets whilst making sure I still allowed time for me and my family.

I felt completely at ease with Sara, she was so encouraging and natural to talk to and she could easily see and understand what my problems were. Talking with her enabled me to open up my thinking to come together with hers to define and implement solutions.

I can honestly say I have never felt better. I am so much more self-aware and I feel more resilient working towards my goals.”

— Victoria, NHS Leader Merseyside

“When I started coaching I was unsure about my future career goals; I wasn’t sure where to start and I struggled with self-doubt. Working with Sara felt like a privilege; she is understanding, encouraging and supportive. Every week I looked forward to our sessions as I’d finish feeling so positive.

With Sara’s help I have been able to uncover and focus on my strong points and feel more confident in the decisions I make. I feel more reassured, knowing my own ability and that I am capable of achieving what I want.

Sara has helped me reaffirm everything that is good in my life and I am now focused on what I would like to do in the future. She has unquestionably made a positive impact on my life through our coaching sessions, and I would not hesitate to recommend her as a coach.”

— Hannah, Talent Acquisition Consultant, North West

“I have really appreciated the sessions with Sara. It is the only way I can truly pause the daily rush and take stock. Sara is a fantastic listener, she is non-judgmental, she quickly ascertains what is most important and needing focus and she manages to challenge and support all at the same time. Quite an achievement! I recommend her wholeheartedly for anyone who feels unsettled and at a crossroads.”

— Annabel, Teacher, London

“When I first met Sara, I was going through a particularly trying period with little self-confidence. I don’t find it easy to speak about my feelings, but with Sara it was very easy and natural.

She listened to my thoughts, and opened up a different way of thinking, showing understanding and empathy along the way.

Working with Sara for 3 months completely changed my way of thinking and mindset and I am now equipped to tackle things differently with an inner self-belief. I cannot recommend working with Sara enough, it has been the best investment in myself and my time and it has been a completely life-changing experience.”

— Sarah, Business Owner, London

“Having been separated from my partner for a year I felt ready to focus on moving forward and looking at positive goals and changes in my life. When I was introduced to Sara, she instantly she put me at ease and we quickly built a rapport which made for a comfortable, trusting, professional relationship. She gave me techniques week by week to take significant steps to achieve my goals, whilst contacting me regularly to check in on my progress. When Covid- 19 impacted, she adapted the coaching to support me in the best way possible.

Sara has an approachable, flexible, patient, encouraging style and I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

— Faye, Social Worker, Bedfordshire

Stand Alone Sessions

“The discussion for me really took me by surprise. It allowed me to realise truly what my leadership development opportunities are, and quick wins along with longer term approaches to how I can develop in these. I feel like I learnt a lot about myself, and I left the conversation feeling more confident in myself as a leader, as well as very clear on what my opportunities are and what I can do to progress them. Thank you so much”

— Siobhan, Senior Manager, Retail

“I was surprised at how much I was able to accomplish in one session with Sara. She has a wonderful sense of calm and encouragement which enabled me to unpack my thoughts whilst feeling validated throughout. Her structured style challenged me to dig deeper into what I really wanted to accomplish, and as a result, many of the issues that have been bothering me for a while just fell away.

I left with a renewed sense of clarity, focus and peace in the choices that I have made.”

— Helen, Executive Coach, London

Business Leadership Coaching

Having set up a small business in 2020 having no previous experience, it became apparent that although I had the drive and passion to make the business work, I needed help in certain areas to help the business flourish and realise my full potential.

Feeling slightly overwhelmed I sought help from Sara on recommendation.  Sara helped to me to understand why I was experiencing overwhelm and worked with me to form a strategic plan and helped me regain clear direction. 

Working with Sara has helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses both personally and within the business. Her sharing her insight from an external perspective shone a valuable light on areas for development.  Our sessions highlighted to me how being the manager of a small team it is very easy to become tunnel visioned, and how this can have a negative impact on your business and personal growth.

I learned substantially through Sara’s coaching and will always be open to going back to her for impartial guidance to continue to facilitate my personal growth and the growth of the business.  I would highly recommend Sara as a coach and I feel her guidance has helped facilitate the growth of the business in a period when due to the pandemic a lot of other new, small businesses failed. 

I am truly grateful for the dedication and passion Sara showed in our sessions; I would advise anyone considering working with a coach to get in touch with Sara – the results speak for themselves.

— Michael, Business Owner, Manchester
