“Being a bloke I had always dismissed the idea of discussing my fears and feelings with anyone other than my wife. However, things had got so bad that I was willing to give life coaching a try and, to my utter amazement, discussing these things with a third party worked wonders for me . . . By talking through my concerns and fears I was able to see that I did have career choices. We discussed my career options and researched alternative possibilities which included becoming self-employed. We drew up a wishlist of ideal situations I could create for myself as I moved into the future. I now have a plan and although the plan will take 18 months to realise, I feel as though I have a goal, something to think about, to study for and most importantly to look forward to. Now, I no longer dread getting up in the morning, because as time goes on, I feel that I am slowly nearing my goal. I am much happier and the future seems bright and exciting and without Anna’s help, I am sure this would not be the case.”

“It helped to talk to someone who did not have a vested interest in the outcome and was able to help me step back from the problem and see things more clearly. Anna looked at my situation from my own, selfish point of view and also made me realise my indecision about the future, and my lack of direction, was making me depressed and generally unpleasant to be with. The people who suffered most were, of course, my family.

“Each coaching session provided me with concise and necessary actions to help me achieve my goals. Anna enabled me to focus on short and long-term objectives. I found her manner extremely pleasant and helpful always focusing on how I was going to move forward and by when! I would recommend Anna to anyone who feels they have taken on too much and need to develop methods to prioritise what they do without necessarily giving anything up!”
