How Coaching Works

1:1 monthly one-hour Coaching Sessions over Zoom (or Teams if needed) at times to suit you 

You start by simply telling me about your current situation. I listen, ask key questions, offer feedback, occasionally challenge limiting assumptions and hold you to account as needed.

You'll identify and set yourself monthly goals with the long term aim of achieving your goal/s by your deadline.

Along the way we'll explore the many options open to you, what might be holding you back from making changes or moving forward and different things you could try next.

You'll learn more about what makes you tick and why - which will help you try new ways of approaching and dealing with the life transition/situation you are in and going through.

And in my coaching sessions there is always, always, something to laugh about!

How Life Coaching works

I'll ask key questions to help you get clear on what you are unhappy about, on what you want instead, to understand what's holding you back and to expand your horizons as you move through your current life transition/situation - whether it be job role or career changes, retirement, redundancy, relocation, becoming an empty nester or exploring your sexual identity. These moments in life can feel really uncertain, but they also offer a huge opportunity to reflect, grow and create a better life that's more aligned with your values.

Person-centred Coaching

If you're navigating a significant life transition and want space to think clearly, to reconnect with what's important to you and move forward with confidence, I'm here to support you. I work with thoughtful, motivated people who care about both their own personal growth and often the wellbeing of the planet too.

Whole Person Coaching

Do you want to live a life that is fulfilling and values-led? 

Whole person coaching takes a human-centered approach.

Life coaching nurtures your growth as a whole person—both professionally and personally.

Her coaching was fundamental to achieving my personal & business goals. Thank you Sarah!' - client

'I find you to be very easy to talk to, you have a warm demeanour, but with an edge of authority which is easy to respect as you are very generous about your own experiences of life. I find that you come very well planned to each session, and are good at bringing the conversation back to the original point, which is good for someone like me who can often steer off into different directions. You are patient, and adaptable and I do feel very comfortable talking to you' - client

'I worked with Sarah at a transitional phase of my life, when I wanted to explore some of the obstacles to my professional success. Sarah helped me see what stories I was telling myself about my worth and supported me to create some overview in my work practice. This helped me see better where to put my energy and what had to go. It also gave me the courage to take a big next step and start writing the book I have been working on for nearly a decade. Highly recommended!' - client

'Sarah has helped me to clarify the scope of my (start-up) consulting offer – narrowing down the many ideas and avenues to the areas that best align with my core values.  It has been very valuable to have Sarah to question, challenge and support my decision-making process – I now feel more confident in my next steps and as a result, better able to support my clients' - client

'Sarah is skilled in holding the thread of the story throughout which she does through clarifying and summarising.  She ‘celebrate the wins’ and helps clients see the positives in their experience and gain fresh insight. She ensures forward momentum and a sense of how clients can use their learning going forwards' - Trainer

None

' I feel high levels of professional integrity and trust which enables me to be open, honest and authentic during sessions.
I value your input, guidance and perspectives on my challenges and opportunities' - client

'Sarah is a fantastic coach.  She has a very warm and open approach to her work and provided me with many reflections and insights that helped me realise and achieve goals. No matter how big or small these were, she was always willing to listen, explore options, outcomes, hopes and dreams with a warm hearted enthusiasm and drive. Sarah clearly loves her job and that helps too'.- client
