Testimonials

"As a self-employed freelancer and particularly against a backdrop of Covid19, it’s hard to put time aside to think about your own personal development.  It was something that I initially felt guilty about but once I began to see the benefits of having this protected time, I started to look forward to some space each week to clear my mind and focus on what I want to achieve.  It’s something I couldn’t have done without the structure of coaching, and Jules' support, but that I’ll definitely be continuing from now on!"

"At a significant turning point for me, Jules enabled me to identify what is important in terms of my life goals.  Further to this, through skilful questioning, Jules has encouraged me in finding ways to work towards achieving these goals. I have found the sessions very beneficial; each one has provided time to reflect and to focus on my priorities. I have been able to identify what works best for me and I have been steadily making progress towards achieving my goals."

"Jules has provided a safe and secure place to discuss my concerns and explore more opportunities to develop my own awareness of situations and well being. It has helped me to move forward in addressing some of the challenges I have shared and make good progress on those areas that I was aware needed more clarity and thought. Jules has always been supportive and a good listener during our sessions and I value her input in the discussion to help me think more clearly and justly as and when."

"I really enjoyed my coaching sessions with you. Perceptive and inquisitive, you challenged my actions in a thought-provoking way that really made a difference. Your support to me during my coaching journey was consistent and your professional and intelligent responses increased my self-awareness and hence my actions towards my goals; I learned a huge amount during our sessions."

"I had been wanting to get back into script writing which after a long absence I was finding quite challenging to do. Jules went through what was important to me in my life , my values and what I needed to do to move forward with writing. Coaching is challenging.  It really makes you look at yourself, your strengths and your weaknesses. At times it was painful because I was exploring what had held me back and that made me feel vulnerable but there’s no one else I would have wanted to be coached by."

"Previously I had a Senior Managing Director position in the pub/restaurant sector and for a large retailer. I have found that having a career gap has affected my confidence and belief in myself to get back into the workplace. The sessions have given me structure, the ability to look at different opportunities and indeed confidence to try to give things a go. Jules is very easy to talk to, challenges me when undecided and structures my sometimes rambling thought process into a doable plan. I have now started some work and feel I can reach my goals."

"Jules has the sunny, positive disposition to bring out the positive in me every time and move me forward with each session.  I actively buzz after she has finished a session and the simple, effective notes she encourages me to take keep me focussed on trying to achieve my manageable aims in between our sessions."    

"After the sessions, I feel enabled to approach things differently - I feel free, with no boundaries, I can set targets and goals as I know I can achieve them, as Jules has shown me how to make them SMART goals"

"Before my coaching sessions with Jules, I was definitely suffering from post-Covid lethargy and a lack of confidence. I had lost direction and needed something to give me a kick start.  My sessions with Jules have really helped me re-shape my life and she has been a great inspiration with her encouragement and helpful suggestions. I feel that my life is back on track and I feel very positive for the future with lots of new goals to achieve."

"Jules really turned my direction around in a very positive way and I am extraordinarily grateful to her. Following some focused discussions and small exercises, Jules made me see quite an interesting perspective of myself and where I needed to go at quite a critical point in my life. It was so simple but for some reason, I had not seen which path I needed to go down. Jules provided me with both the direction and clarity I needed which I found extremely beneficial."
