Testimonials
"Karen has provided fantastic support to me over our sessions: challenging my thinking and assumptions; encouraging me to question my behaviours and habits; and helping me step beyond insecurities to seize new opportunities. She has an uncanny ability to get quickly to the heart of an issue, and to create a safe environment of positive self-reflection which has been transformative"
"Karen’s coaching was incredibly useful. She provided really useful insights, challenges and thoughtful questions that get straight to the point whilst being empathetic.
I definitely recommend her.
CEO, Culture Sector
"Karen gave me space to really reflect on who I am as a leader as well as what I can offer an organisation. She challenged me when I needed it, and helped me see myself and what I can offer from a variety of lenses which I hadn’t previously considered. She’s really helped me to recognise my potential, and I left every session injected with energy and ambition."
"Karen's support directly helped me to have as much impact as possible and to address issues so that I felt I was performing at my highest level. I liked Karen's engaging, honest, and down to earth coaching style which helped me to see things differently"
"Karen changed the direction I was going. I had lost my way after having a career change, then a baby, and she helped me unpick the root of what had gone on, then together we rebuilt a plan, my confidence, and my goals.
