“I met Rebecca soon after being informed that after 26 years at the same company I was going to be made redundant. Rebecca helped me to clarify and begin to articulate my next career chapter. She helped me unpack my motivations, strength awareness, both visible and hidden hang ups and concerns about what I was to do next.
Her good humour, conversational style and open and honest approach was refreshing and and exactly what I needed when I was still feeling a little bruised from my recent redundancy announcement. We explored where my knowledge, skills and experience could be best applied and how and why I should also consider pivots into new industries.
Rebecca helped me better explain who I am, what I bring and why a potential recruiter should consider me.
I found her willingness to flex and adapt her coaching content very useful, it never felt like I was jumping through the designated hoops of a strict coaching programme. Her storytelling and examples from her own career were always relevant to the points we were discussing.
Her warmth and charm always conveyed that she had the best intentions for me, wanting me to find the answers to my own questions and that half the win was learning that I have information I need to succeed.
I looked forward to our sessions, always got something from them and was supported by the write ups that she provided afterwards so that I could review and reflect accordingly.
I’m pleased to share that three months after my redundancy announcement, I have secured a new role. It’s very different from the roles I’ve held previously, and I’m confident that without Rebecca’s input I would not have considered it, let alone had the self-confidence to apply and interview. My newly clarified understanding of my skills and motivations broadened my horizons and ambition, helping me enter the next chapter of my career.”

“I found the sessions incredibly valuable. I was navigating a number of challenging situations involving leadership, conflict and organisational change, and she gave me a really helpful space to step outside of the immediate frustrations and think much more clearly about what was going on.
One of Rebecca’s particular strengths is her ability to help you look at a situation from every angle. She helped me think not only about my own objectives and reactions, but about the motivations, pressures and perspectives of the other people involved. That often enabled me to approach difficult conversations very differently.
She was particularly helpful in thinking strategically about people, how to get the best out of someone, when and how to challenge, how to navigate resistance, and how to work towards the best possible resolution when relationships or situations had become difficult.
I came away from our conversations with greater clarity, a better understanding of the dynamics I was dealing with, and practical ways forward. She combines thoughtful questioning with a very strong understanding of communication and people, and I would warmly recommend her to anyone wanting help navigating leadership, workplace relationships, change or difficult conversations.”
