Testimonials
“Coaching with Sarah was an invaluable experience for my personal and professional development. From the very first session, she helped me to start thinking differently and figure out what it was, I needed to do to grow as a freelance professional, structuring my goals in ways that I could focus and implement changes on what mattered to create tangible results. These changes have had a major impact on my confidence and the way I see new possibilities; furthermore, it has impacted in many positive ways the people around me.
The sessions were a real pleasure and I think that anyone, regardless of age or background, could enjoy some seriously positive changes in their lives as a result of coaching with Sarah.”

“Sarah's coaching sessions have had a massive impact on my life. They gave me the space and time to sort out all the ideas I had whizzing round my head. Sarah provided me with great structure in each session and really encouraged me to identify exactly what I wanted to get out of each coaching call and beyond. By helping me attach achievable deadlines to my goals, Sarah has kept me motivated and moving forward in my life. I come away from my coaching sessions with Sarah with much more clarity and a renewed sense of enthusiasm for my life and goals. Sarah has a very friendly and approachable style and is a great listener. My sessions with her are always extremely productive but also fun. Sarah is always professional, organised and punctual with all of our sessions. I would highly recommend Sarah's coaching services and look forward to continuing to work with her in the future.”

“Throughout the sessions I felt safe and confident in Sarah's coaching skills. At the start, I felt vulnerable and lonely and placed that as the focus to work on during our time together. The hope was to find more social connection and grow in confidence. I found that Sarah gave me the power to make those decisions for myself and set my own goals. These discussions led to unimaginable success stories of friendship and a new business as a sole trader.
The most powerful tool Sarah gave me was setting actual real time timescales to work on my goals. The empowerment came from realising that I had set the goals, I had worked through them and I had the strength within me to achieve more than I had realised.
Our conversations together gave great focus to my aspirations and wonderfully much of this has already been achieved. These subsequent achievements mean that I have now grown in confidence and highlighted strengths in myself. Now I know that I can use these tools in the future to focus on what is important in my life and where I need to go next. I will stop placing barriers and start breaking some down.”

“My sessions with Sarah focused on issues around my job and career. I have an understanding now about the choices I make, I own these decisions,I can accept things or change them. There are small changes I can make to improve things rather than just catastrophizing and feeling helpless about the whole situation.
I identified an alternative role that I possess the skills to do. Becoming an appraiser and undertaking non clinical work. This has been an idea I have kicked around for some time but having identified it in my sessions, I have now completed the application process.
Sarah helped me identify lack of confidence as an underlying problem in my work. This creates stress and lack of enjoyment. We did the ‘circle of excellence’ and ‘neurological levels’ exercises to improve confidence and resilience. This boost enabled me to undertake my patient questionnaires at an early stage in my revalidation cycle. This is something I have always found stressful and put off. Sarah has allowed me to identify, reflect and achieve changes that have been really positive.”

“My coaching with Sarah has been very successful .I have become more aware of my limiting beliefs and how I can change my thought process to achieve the outcome I desire in all areas of my life.
I have discovered a new way to work through any issues I am having to find a solution that I may not have realised I had the answers to before my coaching.
I have hit so many of my goals through my coaching with Sarah including career goals, family goals and self care goals. I can't thank Sarah enough for her coaching.”

"Working with Sarah over the past few months has been life changing.
I wouldn’t ever have previously imagined signing up for coaching but after this I’ve been telling everyone I can about it.
Aside from helping me find realistic and practical steps towards my objectives, I have managed to find greater meaning in all areas of my life and centre them around my guiding values.
Sarah has made me feel empowered to make real and lasting changes that have positively impacted on my work and family life. I’m enormously grateful for her time and skill. She has challenged me whenever I needed it and her warmth, humour and human touch has made it really fun.
It’s the most valuable thing I have ever done for myself and I would wholeheartedly recommend coaching with Sarah."

I procrastinated over coaching for a while as my work life balance spiralled out of control. I am glad that I finally took the plunge. It was Sarah’s introduction on Linked IN that caught my interest, her words resonated with me.
I have not been disappointed, my coaching has had a really positive impact on my life in quite a short space of time. It was the first time in a while that I gave myself some dedicated space to talk, think and focus on my well-being, what is going well and what needs to change.
I am not one to open up to people easily but actually with Sarah it was easy… She is fun, has a lovely manner, is a great listener and from day one I felt comfortable to share my worries, challenges, successes in a confidential and encouraging environment. I looked forward to my sessions even when I found them difficult.
Sarah did challenge me and I asked for that. Through our sessions I set myself goals and as a result have reconnected with friends and reintroduced myself to “me time”. I feel that I have taken back some control, my family sees the positive changes and I feel more confident. Everyone needs a Sarah.

Sarah is very approachable and down to Earth, but at the same time, I felt her coaching programme was well-structured and challenged me to the best of my abilities.
In the space of less than 3 months, I have made a huge progress in my career project, which I had been trying to launch for months. After working with Sarah, my challenges and obstacles-internal and external-all became clear.
I have gained so much confidence by working with Sarah. She does not tell you what to do, but makes you believe that your dreams can be a reality and through her coaching sessions, you start taking firm steps towards that goal.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Working with a life coach was a big decision for me. I knew there were areas of my life which I needed to change but taking the step to find the help to do that felt huge. From our first online meeting Sarah made me feel completely at ease. Her non-judgemental and positive approach was infectious and I felt empowered to put the changes we had discussed into practice after each session. There are many different techniques and exercises Sarah can use to help you get the best out of each session and I was happy to be guided by her as to what may work best. I gained a lot out of the personality profiling and refer to this report regularly to help me understand why I react to situations in a certain way. I feel a lot more accepting of myself and better understand how to make small changes to make my life and decisions work best for me. Thank you Sarah!
