Testimonials/Case Studies
‘Carolyn has made me realise that I already know the answers; to achieve my goals, she has given me the tools to put things into practice. Thank you.’
‘I requested coaching due to a challenge I was facing in work. Carolyn helped me worked through this challenge in a supportive and motivating way. After each coaching session I felt motivated to go away and make a difference which I have no doubt helped me to be more confident as well as resolve the issues. Carolyn was kind and supportive and the experience has given me a new-found confidence – thank you.’
‘I started my coaching journey looking at a job change, Carolyn supported me during my application/interview process and also coached me during the transition to my new role.’
