I felt like I was ‘in a rut’ that I couldn’t get out of. Working with Deborah, I gained coping tools to navigate through pressure, and in-depth thinking as I adapted to a new management role. If you are starting your coaching journey, it is a beneficial way of unlocking your full potential, and to become more confident.
"I gained coping tools to navigate through pressure"
Working with Deborah was an inspiring and liberating experience. She had an ability to make me comfortable and at ease, to open up and reach deep down inside. Her non-judgmental guidance was crucial for me to be able to be honest, first with myself and then with her. With her help I worked out a plan on how to refocus my life. I became more courageous and goal oriented, and made some significant life changes that I had thought about in the past but had never taken the plunge. I now exercise, learned how important it is to put myself first, and most surprising of all, started my own business that I am very excited about.
"I became more courageous and goal oriented, and made significant life changes"
Deborah is a very gifted coach. I always looked forward to our conversations. She supported me to dive deeper into myself to uncover my own wisdom and dreams. Her gentle but strong manner created a safe space for me to find my own answers which, surprisingly, were right inside me, an
empowering experience. Because of her coaching I have the courage to embrace my dreams with greater self confidence and trust in myself. A new ME has been born.

By exploring life aspects with Deborah, I have come to realise what I want in life and have gained tools and actions on how to follow through. It has really allowed me to re-evaluate and take actions on what I truly want. Something I couldn't do on my own for many years I feel like I achieved in weeks. Thank you, Deborah, the awareness has allowed me to embrace my new exciting and more meaningful pathway.
