I wanted to thank you, it has been a wonderful programme. I feel I have made contact with a sense of purpose and feel back in touch with my life, somehow cleared out of a lot of distracting thinking so the data is coming through in a clear stream and easier to respond to. My current work continues to be brought into a more manageable form which is very positive and I am reminded of my enjoyment of it. But wonderful to me is a feeling that I might be on track to find some other work or volunteer role in line with my interests which is something that makes me feel happy and optimistic. The exploration of interests has been key and your dogged pointing to my habit. Learning to identify this habit in action has been of such practical benefit due to the way it disrupts my motivation as you have so powerfully illustrated.

I am so pleased that I signed up to Tessa’s career coaching programme. She has provided me with much-needed direction, support and guidance at a time when I was feeling deflated with where I was in my career and lacking in motivation which was impacting on my well-being and family life. She quickly identified that we needed to focus on strategies to overcome moments of self-doubt and to improve and maintain my well-being in order to help achieve my goal of changing career direction. I found the programme hugely rewarding and beneficial and also challenging at times, particularly in the middle of the programme. However, Tessa kept me focussed on short-term steps as well as my long-term goal and I have recently ended the course with a clear strategy and direction. I cannot thank Tessa enough and I would recommend her whole-heartedly, even if you’re just assessing your career options and next stage in your career.

I just wanted to reiterate my thanks for your patience and attention over the coaching course. I learned a lot about myself and my goals, and I know that the various worksheets and exercises we have gone through will be valuable in my future decision making. The regular sessions have also helped to keep me focussed and intentional in what has been quite an unusual episode of my life.

I have worked with Tessa for some time, with regular coaching sessions. She has a very useful knack of helping me to really explore certain topics without realising I am doing it, and bring to the surface some real gems of self-awareness. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Tessa and hope to continue on this journey of self-discovery for some time to come.

When I started Life Coaching with Tessa I just had the seed of a business idea in my head. With Tessa’s coaching I have managed to get my idea out of my head and onto paper. We have worked through my confidence issues; planning and practical issues, have set clear goals for the business and really cleared the way for me to give it the best go possible. I still have a long way to go, but Tessa has allowed me to get through the crucial first stages and give me a real focus on what I want to get out of my life and how I want to go about it. I really don’t believe I would be at this stage without her.
