Kay's coaching style was direct and insightful, she could see when I was dodging something and didn't let me get away with it!! She had a great sense of humor, and I appreciated her strength when we touched on things that were challenging for me. Kay is a fabulous coach in her strength, inquisitiveness and direct questions. When I told her my goal, she took it to heart and attacked the obstacles that I was holding on to. I loved her tenacity in helping me see what was underneath and then cheering me on when I made process. I would recommend Kay as a coach to anyone who is serious about making progress in their lives toward any goal!

Kay was generous with time and space and I could finally express my frustration over not being able to choose moving forward in my life. I felt gently guided through a process of remembering who I was before the "stuckness" and to an insight that I can choose to be that me again. I feel empowered, glad and in movement after just one session. Thank you Kay

It has been such a pleasure working with Kay! She is a smart, compassionate and friendly coach to work with. I loved her calm aura and level of understanding of my challenges. Kay does a great job at holding a safe and comfortable space for her clients to reflect on their thoughts and behavior which allows insights to emerge. She is non-judgmental and asks great questions to resolve your personal concerns. I found her to be really good at knowing what direction to go in as and when I brought up my thoughts. She was also great at summarizing and reflecting the experiences I had which cements the insights that came up. Her sessions definitely made a positive shift in my life -- I noticed tangible improvements in each of the particular areas I discussed which I was really thrilled about!

My session with Kay was immensely helpful. Her approach enabled me to gain clarity and break through the mass of thoughts clouding my mind. I was able to visualise where I wanted to be, how it felt to be there, the next doable actions I needed to take, and then how to ensure I remained accountable and followed through. Since then I have been taking solid action and moving forward to meet my goals day-by-day. Brilliant! I’d highly recommend working with her. Thanks Kay!

Kay was able to guide me back to the heart of what I need to do to keep moving forward towards my goal. She was skilled at helping me to look within for direction.

Kay has been helping me move beyond negative self-talk and mindsets that come in to play when I work on my writing. I write novels and my anxiety has been having a bigger impact over time to the point of preventing me from developing my work. The visualisation exercises have really made me aware of what I’m experiencing in the moment and appreciate why it’s made such an impact. Kay has helped me build on that and see how my current self-image is disconnecting me from my goals and has helped me take action towards course correcting so my self-talk is boosting my commitment to my writing and getting me closer to my goals.

When I started working with Kay I was in a rut, and a big one at that! I couldn't move forward because my confidence was shot, which made me scared and indecisive. After the very first session with Kay, I not only had some really important clarity on what I wanted to create next, I also felt for the first time in a long time, empowered and capable. She really helped me see my strengths, face my challenges, generate the feelings I want to feel in my life, and create important boundaries around my resources. As we continue to work together, Kay offers me much needed accountability, support and perspective during the ups and downs of my current project, my newly created business, and my life. A coach is the one person in your life who helps you to see and to live up to your own potential. A coach helps you move forward when you are stuck and supports you becoming your best version of yourself. Kay has been that coach for me, and so much more. I am very fortunate to have found her and I know that I would not be where I am today without her coaching.

Working with Kay has been incredibly helpful as I get back on my feet from a long illness. This has been my first coaching experience, and it has been remarkable having someone to help break down intimidating goals into manageable steps. Kay truly does want the best her clients, and that is evident in her sessions.

Wow. I have spent years in therapy attempting to “fix the wrong in me”. But with Kay, I felt I was able to simply share a small piece of myself without rehashing old junk. And yet somehow she guided me to a place where I felt safe to confront something painful in a way that seemed genuinely relieving. I had abhuge “Aha!” by recognizing that the voice echoing negativity was my own, even when it may have stemmed from another person, ultimately I was the one allowing it to play on repeat. Together we muted that voice for just a moment. Oh the freedom!!! I practice this daily, sometimes hourly. And I cannot tell you enough how much lighter I feel. I now share this “aha” with guests in my care and loved ones and anyone who shares a similar self-doubting thought pattern. Cancel the noise, friends. True soul therapy

"I originally contacted Kay to help me deal with moving to a foreign country and all of the challenges it brings. However, I have already achieved so much more than I ever expected. Since working with Kay I have experienced a huge shift in the way I think, which has driven some quite significant changes. Most importantly, every single day I get up and I am excited about life."
