As part of an exciting study into the impact of the menopause on the working lives of women experiencing it, I was fortunate to be afforded three coaching sessions with Rae. These have been both enjoyable and immensely helpful. Rae is warm and relaxed and builds rapport quickly. The sessions looked at you as a whole person, not just the menopausal parts! The focus in on how to recognise what is not working and seek workarounds and coping strategies; and how to 'unstick' 'stuck' situations. I take away tools to help in this, like asking myself "What can I control?" and "What can I influence?

Rae is able to create an environment that allows you to go to unexpected places and then return back to a path that takes you to your intended destination. It may be a different path than the one you started on but it seems to get you to where you want to go faster. I had so many "aha" moments that seemed obvious in hindsight but were not available to me before my coaching sessions with Rae. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

She has a warm, engaging and positive style and has the rare gift of asking the most insightful questions to encourage you to dig deep and create your own solutions. I would recommend Rae to anyone looking for a coach who is truly talented in their field.

“I love our coaching sessions. You’ve helped me find clarity at a really challenging time at work. You’ve helped me see perspective and make the right decisions for me. Thank-you Rae

Coaching empowered me to have a voice and to follow my values and morals. I was able to talk through difficult situations and reflect on why and how I could make positive changes. I acted upon these reflections and feel stronger, braver and prouder as a result.

Thank you Rae, you have given me a new perspective and reminded me that even though life is busy, it is not only okay but essential that I don’t lose sight of myself and my needs. Your coaching has helped me create the balance I needed between my home life and my business. You have encouraged me to believe that my goals are possible when I put myself first. Since our session, I have put my needs first and once again I feel relaxed and creative an I’m still able to meet the needs of those I care for.

I had a fantastic Coaching Session with Rae yesterday. It gave me the time and space to focus completely and unselfconsciously on me, which is something that’s surprisingly rare when you run your own business. I felt so comfortable, like I was chatting to a trusted friend. Rae has a very calm, relaxed way of working and asked thoughtful questions that helped me unlock thoughts and feelings about how to move forward in my business. I came away feeling lighter, clearer and equipped with a framework for the next steps. I’d recommend Rae to anyone who struggles to make time to step back and work on their business, rather than constantly working in it.
