Coaching testimonials

“I work within many strategic circles within the NHS and have met a number of coaches and mentors. Kate stands out in her ability to not only be able to connect cognitively but also emotionally and to intuitively tailor her response to your needs. I would recommend her if you are looking for someone to help you become unstuck around a particular issue or to navigate a path you are unable to articulate.”

- LJ, NHS Clinical Lead.

 

“Kate was excellent to work with - open, knowledgeable, adaptable and set up tasks and activities to draw out different conversations and to change perceptions. Really helpful and great working together in a time of change.”

— CF, CEO.

 

“Kate is warm, authentic and compassionate with a very natural positivity and incredible skills. I did a lot of the talking but each time she said something it was incredibly effective and powerful, and I developed huge insights into myself and my thinking. I don’t want to sound over the top but it was a revelation. I feel happier and more content with my life and more confident and positive in working towards my goals.”

— CD, Physiotherapist.

 

“Kate is a natural coach. She listens with care and compassion and asks searching and intelligent questions to create very helpful insights. She has helped and challenged me to reflect, dig deeper and understand my values and goals better in a way which has steered my thinking in different directions leading to life-enhancing conclusions. I highly recommend Kate!”

— DB, Company Director.

 

“…in short, after the last session I felt bold enough to challenge [a senior colleague] on a range of ethical and financial issues…which I have never been brave enough to do before… Wishing I’d worked with you 5 years ago!!”

— IM, CEO.

“Kate is very approachable, and I felt at ease very quickly. She grasped my situation and difficulties very quickly. She was very articulate and quick to disseminate information and was incredibly competent at identifying areas to delve in deeper at. The coaching gave me confidence and reassurance. In the sessions I had with Kate I definitely took some life changing support away with me. I would certainly recommend her and return to her again.”

- CF, Business Development.

 

“Since working with Kate I’ve engaged with a personal trainer, set up a creative endeavour aside from my day job, strengthened my relationship with my partner of 20 years and most importantly found my mojo and lust for life. My value and abilities have been reinforced, helping me realise my potential and reducing fearful thinking and stress. What more can I say! I highly recommend coaching with Kate.”

— FS, Respiratory Doctor.
