Expertise
It is demoralising when you feel stuck, stale, plateaued or burned out. Where once your approach was full of confidence and vigour now you start to second guess yourself. Left unattended this can spiral downwards to a state of confusion and frustration that spills out across other areas of your life. Resentments simmer, further depleting your desire to get back on track. It is hard to describe to others, and perhaps for a while it is not visible to those closest to you.
You know changes need to be made but it seems overwhelming and you are not sure where to start. I know this too because I have been there - and come back from it!
As a coach I help bring clarity and encouragement to start to take action in ways that make a difference. Discovering alongside you what is important to you now rather than what may have been important in the past.
The endless circling will stop as you choose where to focus. You will start to feel refreshed
You will gain a wider understanding of your situation and benefit from the space and time so that new thoughts emerge and possibilities arise. Rediscovering and working with your natural strengths kick starts a process of renewal
You will start to appreciate the areas that are working and become clear minded about where you want to make changes that will make a difference.
I ask you the questions your mind has been closed to. In doing so you will unlock possibilities that did not seem present before and take action.
My style is provocative, challenging and supportive.
"I have experienced and witnessed Sarah's coaching, which is incisive, insightful and delivered with impact. Anyone working with Sarah, is encouraged and reassured in equal measure to dig deep into their own inner resourcefulness. Sometimes there are surprises to be found there" Jane Stretton, Rural Entrepreneur
