A new focused mindset will give you confidence to overcome challenges and take the necessary risks to progress and take action.
Freeing your thoughts allows a fresh new perspective, energy and momentum in understanding how to get to where you want to be.
Forming actions to support your objectives and goals gives your approach coherence and simplicity. This will enable you to progress on your journey to reach your goals.
You will have a new sense of self, feeling strong, resilient and resourceful, trusting in yourself and your abilities to succeed as you see yourself progress, with direction and fulfilment. By 'freeing your thoughts' you have an acceptance, a trust and a sense of 'being' that feels true.

Ted

I was feeling good when I had some life coaching from Marie, I just wanted to make the most out of creating new and exciting opportunities for myself and I was feeling in a good place to do this and reach for greater heights. I wanted to be free in my thinking and Marie's approach of philosophy for change supported me to go far beyond where I thought I could be. I am now working abroad doing a job I love even more than I did, I took the leap of faith in me to do this.
Ted

Sam

Marie expertly helped me to get clarity and perspective, and this helped me to understand why I felt the way I did. I was able to get things in motion by taking small steps, setting personal goals and achieving them. This helped me understand the past and the influence this had on me and then build confidence, and self-love to move forward, and feel content with who I am.
Sam

Claire

Marie was able to help me through a difficult time in my life, I split up from my husband and was lost in myself and my role as a mother, friend and work colleague. I lost confidence in all areas of my life and needed to build a relationship with me again, Marie's insightful, empathic and focused approach helped me to feel again and become the person I once was.
Claire

Si

My mate recommended Marie. I saw Marie mainly to help with stuff I was taking and the drinking, which was at weekends for ages, but gradually I wasn't in control, and this affected everything, my health, mental health, work, relationships, self-worth, finances - just about everything really and I just need someone to talk to and to help put me right. Marie is cool and was able to support me to get on track and helped me work out just what was going on. Things are loads better now!
Si

Olivia

"I wasn't body confident, after gaining weight and couldn't maintain any exercise routine. I was lost, and unsure of myself and was pre-menopausal as my decision making and confidence was all over the place, dependent on my mood. Marie helped me process all this and supported me to gain insight, and take action, to change the pattern I was in and understand me better. I started a new routine that I maintained and gradually got fitter, stronger and happier being me again."
Olivia

Pete

"My finances had snowballed out of control, I was getting further into debt, and still spending on pointless things but I couldn't help it. I was stuck in a rut, and couldn't see a way out of debt -I felt out of control. I wasn't thinking straight and I looked online for help. I didn't want to see a counsellor, I wanted a shorter intervention and more focused support and Marie was that help. Together we made a plan, and looked at my spending, and ways I could cut back and prioritise and gradually I have worked my way out of debt, Through the sessions Marie helped me to understand why I got into debt and this deeper understanding has helped me to stay on track since."
Pete

Adam

"I was feeling low, stressed and wasn't functioning well at home with my partner, and kids. Everything was getting on top, I was angry with everyone around me. I wasn't enjoying work in the same way and I was feeling emotional, as my stress levels crept up. I was drinking too much to mask my feelings, eating rubbish, and just generally feeling down on me. Someone recommended Marie to me, and though hesitant I approached her. Marie put me at ease, she is friendly and attentive,and has your absolute interest at heart. Marie helped me identify the pressure points, and supported me to reflect on where I was at and what changes needed to happen, and with a clear plan I moved myself out from the pit I was in. My whole life has changed, I have a new outlook that I can adopt in all areas of my life and this feels good."
Adam

Theo

"When I came to Marie I was at a crossroad, wanting to grow my business , but not sure how. I was concerned of making the wrong decisions, so didn't make any concrete plans. Fear and doubt were prominent themes in my daily handling of business and clients. Marie brought structure and clear thinking to my choices. She provides incredible insight and guidance, while enabling me to make the decisions and develop a solid plan. I now feel I can move forward with clarity, and this is life changing. I can now see the future I want and have – in just a few months – and I've made huge progress towards it. I wholeheartedly recommend Marie to support you and your business."
Theo

Abbey

"Marie's warm and empathic approach gently guided me to a much better emotional place. I was feeling really anxious, mainly due to a family member becoming sick and the pressure this was putting on me emotionally. I wasn't sleeping well, this caused further stress, leading to panic attacks. I wasn't functioning at work, my confidence started to dip and buried insecurities came to the surface. This affected my relationships in general. I was uneasy about getting support, but I knew I needed something to feel better and Maries coaching style worked for me.
Abbey

Sarah

"Marie helped me identify why I was blocked in my career progression, and we collaboratively set a timeline for achieving my next steps. The sessions were centred around my professional needs. The exercises and tasks helped me to analyse and reflect on myself and my career aspirations. I would highly recommend Marie to anyone who would like support with their career."
