I feel so incredibly fortunate that our paths crossed at the time that they did.  Your life coaching has given me the confidence that I lacked and more to reach for the moon.  Throughout our sessions I found your skills to be an amazing mix of genuine care, compassion, enthusiasm and professionalism which lead to a wonderful connection and outstanding outcomes.

A personal thank you from me. It must be a wonderful feeling knowing you make a difference in this world.  When I was first recommended to see Claire, I was typically sceptical but not dismissive.  After 20 years of marriage ( to a wonderful woman)  six children and 23 years of working heavy hours I had lost my way somewhat.  It evolved without my knowledge to the point where my wife was telling me she did not enjoy being with me as much as she used to.  I was also aware I was unhappy.  Confidence was also an enormous problem.  On the inside I was suffering.  Wanting to fix the situation but not knowing what process to take, I was happy to give it a go.  The first thing I would say is, you must give yourself to the program.  Trust the process and give it the energy it deserves, after all it’s your life.  As basic as it may sound, looking at all the positives in life was something I thought I was doing but clearly was not.  Claire helped me recognize where I was in my life and identified a clear process to get the good stuff going again.  By committing to the process, as uncomfortable that was at times, I have come out of it with clarity on where I have been and where I should be heading and more importantly a complete understanding of the tools I need to get there.  The time with Claire was at times confronting, emotional and funny.  It gave me time to pause and to really take a good look at who I am now, who I want to be and more importantly my relationship with the people I am responsible to and for.  The thinking that Claire brings to the table, it’s all great stuff.  I didn’t see or hear anything I thought was inaccurate or negative.  I totally enjoyed my time with Claire and found the whole thing resoundingly positive.  I now can recognize when I say or do something that is leading down the negative or unhappy path, stop myself, rearrange my words or actions so as to get correct outcome.  Now I have the tools to get on with it , I have regained the confidence do the job.  Even my Wife has acknowledged that my whole attitude is changed and that I am happy again.  It is without doubt that Claire has helped me and my life has changed course for the better.  Thank you Claire.

I wanted to write to thank you so very much for all your support and guidance. Honestly my family and I cannot believe how much I have grown as a person and what has changed as a result.  You really pushed me to achieve things that I would have usually just let slip by me, your manner and professionalism really helped me to open up and get some fantastic results!  Thank you for guiding me in the right direction and pushing me to achieve my best.  I have honestly never been happier, I am so focused now and am learning and growing every day and I thank you for this.

Claire has the unique ability of being able to guide you along your personal journey as well as help you to uncover the elements in your life that are most important to you along the way. Her positivity allowed me to see each little event as ultimately being a part of the bigger picture and that life is to be enjoyed every day.

There are times in our lives when we need to renew our focus, make changes in our lives, or for those like me, change our entire lives. Yet not everyone knows how, or even if you do, you simply don’t know where to start – or perhaps you are simply scared you won’t follow through... I needed someone that understood me, understood what it was I was trying to achieve, but also why... And Claire was able to do that.  Claire provided me with insight that I was lacking. She became my coach in every sense of the word. She is extremely professional and driven. And is absolutely committed to helping you achieve your goals. Claire challenges you and pushes you to follow through with actions that ultimately allow you to achieve your goals. But more than that she is your friend through it all.  The end result is that I  was able to rediscover who I was and what I truly valued in life.

When I first started seeing Claire I was a little sceptical, thinking it wouldn’t work for me. After spending time with her working out what was important to me and what I needed to achieve to have a peaceful mind and be happy on the inside but also on the outside, I noticed that I felt very calm and was able to open up to Claire. She’s very caring, understanding and has that want to help others.  I hadn’t had a great nights sleep in over a year when I first started seeing Claire and I was going through some tough times personally. I had tried everything. My coaching sessions with Claire has given me the tools to be able to have a peaceful nights sleep but also to be able to point out to myself the factors that are stopping me from sleeping and whatever else is stopping me from doing what I want to do.  Seeing Claire has been an inspiration to me, I’ve walked out of every coaching session with Claire feeling on top of world. She’s a huge part of the better person I am today.

At the time I started life coaching with Claire, I was facing one of the toughest times in both my professional and personal lives. I went into the process feeling I had many of the answers to some of the difficult issues I was facing and thought I knew the steps need to solve them as I deal with a lot of problem solving in my professional life. But I was very much mistaken and Claire gave me new and extremely valuable insights to overcome what I was facing and tools to achieve change. I am no longer plagued by my active inner critic, have gained a new and very clear understanding of what's really important in my life and am able to retain a constant level of positivity which makes me more more effective at both work and home.  Claire recommended various techniques that worked extremely well and I would recommend her services to anyone and everyone. Sometimes you don't realise the magnitude or signficance of an issue and its effect on you until someone objective like Claire strips away the peripheral issues and helps you address what's really going on. I looked forward to my weekly sessions with Claire very much knowing how rejuvenated and positive I would inevitably feel at the end of each session. What a great experience.

Claire is a great Coach who skillfully coaches from the heart with clarity and tremendous insight. My coaching experience with Claire has allowed me to leverage small steps of personal progress into large ones. She knows what questions to ask, when to be quiet, when to let me process things, how to encourage without guiding and how to get me to commit to action without telling me what to do. I feel like I have made a realistic plan to help me deal with my stressors and goals in life. I felt like I was getting to know myself a little better and understand things more clearly. I saw an amazing transformation within myself during the 12 week program. It was an excellent experience. I see life differently now and highly recommend this program.

I went into my first session with an open mind and no pre-conceived ideas of benefits or expected outcomes and was amazed how quickly Claire organised my jumbled thoughts into goals and set tasks to achieve those goals.  The process of thinking about an issue and actioning it have always been my downfall, now I recognise what I have to do and put an action plan in place quickly to achieve the outcome I want. I also completed a profile workshop that outlined my behavioural styles as well as my staff’s behavioural styles; understanding myself and my staff has enabled me to maximise productivity and minimise friction, understanding what their hot buttons are has made my day to day running of the business a lot easier and less confrontational and more productive.  I would highly recommend Claire to anybody that wants to understand themselves better and develop positive life and business strategies going forward.  Thanks Claire for all of your work with me you have made a huge difference to my life both on a personal and business level.
