Life Coaching Testimonials
"I met someone… after being on my own for so long… I said to you in our coaching sessions that to meet someone now after finding a job I enjoy would be the icing on the cake. You gave me so much confidence in myself."

"What I like about working with Julia is her flexibility, relaxed approach and an ability to just listen – and then make some helpful suggestions."

"I have found some coaches to be a bit like bulldogs. Julia, however, leads in a way that is soft and nurturing. She is supportive well beyond the time we spend together and continually sends me things that are useful; broadening my exposure to what is available for my growth."

"Julia gave me a lot of things to go away and think about. One particular piece of advice she gave me about not worrying about what others think, I shall certainly take with me and have already had cause to use it with positive effect. Recently when my parenting skills were criticized by a friend I was able to look at it in quite a different way without taking it so personally. Something that before would have certainly played on my mind for days. Now I hope to be able to use this skill in the workplace. Julia’s guidance enabled me to see life situations from a different perspective, one that is so obvious now it has been pointed out."

"I know we covered a lot of ground in a short time, I immediately felt a couple of things: one was much calmer, more grounded and less anxious. The other thing was that I felt more motivated and purposeful, as though some baggage had been removed from my mind enabling me to proceed in a more creative way. After the session the usual problems had less impact on me. I find that Julia's voice has a definite strength and firmness to it, which has an underlying sense of purpose which is always present while she speaks, which made me feel purposeful and strong too."

"Julia is a rarity among coaches. She is a skilled listener, a creative thinker who knows how to use her intuition to get to the very core of your particular challenges, which then enables you to clarify and focus on what you need to do to move forward. All in all a very different and refreshing approach that I would highly recommend to anybody, and particularly to those who may tend to shy away a bit from the 'ra-ra-ra, Mr/Ms motivator' genre of coaching. She also has a quietly, wicked sense of humour. Altogether a lovely person!"

"Julia opened my eyes to a world of possibilities."
AS, Surrey
"Having some experience of counselling and coaching, I find Julia to be particularly insightful and skilled. Julia has helped me to discover what's important in my life and to achieve it. I find Julia very cleverly combines eliciting my feelings with providing ideas and direction and ensures action happens. My recommendation of Julia is wholehearted."
CS, manager, London
"I had specific goals I wanted to reach, and Julia helped me to focus on them - in particular putting together a journey planner for me, and encouraging me to write a journal. I found the sessions really useful, and Julia's warm and friendly voice and personality made these sessions pleasurable as well as helpful. I would recommend her to any woman looking to build confidence in areas of their lives, and those who feel they need to look at their current work and life situation and want to improve it. Coaching can only work if the person coaching you has a broad understanding of the pressures many professional women go through, particularly in juggling personal and working life. I would recommend Julia as a coach."
ML, manager, Hertfordshire
"It has been super working with Julia, lots of learning about communication, about how we see ourselves in others, and different ways of coaching, since the way Julia coached me and the outcomes has been very different to other styles of coaching I've come across. Very useful and very interesting."
