Individuals
Individuals come to me for coaching support and nutritional therapy services, usually for a period of at least 4 months. Working together we explore practical and personalised ways for them to achieve the goals they desire in a way that’s sustainable for the long term.

1-2-1 Coaching – “I have been working with Deb to improve my wellbeing whilst maintaining a demanding career which often feels all consuming. I’ve found that I’ve not only been able to get more from my life outside of work but I’ve also been able to perform optimally whilst at work as I’ve been starting from a more positive, happier, clear headed and energised me.” – Programme Manager

1-2-1 Coaching – “I have thoroughly enjoyed the coaching sessions – what a positive impact you are having on my work, life and personal well-being. The sessions are really productive and thought-provoking and make me feel motivated to improve and venture outside of my comfort zone. Your approach is always one which is subtle but impactful, thus striking the perfect balance.” – Customer Services Professional

1-2-1 Coaching – “I met Deb at a time when I was struggling with stress and the impact that was having on my life and health. She focused me on balancing work with taking care of myself and enjoying life. Her sunny, positive and professional approach truly inspired me I feel blessed to have met her.” – Operations Manager

1-2-1 Coaching – “The magic happens when you meet people who have a significant impact on you such that it awakens a part of you that you didn’t know existed or helps you change course at a critical point in your life. Deb, in particular, was this for me. It’s probably her selfless attitude towards genuinely seeing people thrive that is the key factor and when you meet her you’ll know exactly what I mean.” – Communications Director
1-2-1 Coaching – “I was struggling with juggling my life and work after some significant changes to my job, and the corona virus lockdown. I was home with my child 24/7 and I felt a constant pressure to work and parent in new ways – I felt completely unbalanced, out of control and like I never had a minute to breathe. Deb helped me to explore the situation and to recognise new ways that I could find moments of freedom from the pressure and responsibility. She was excellent at guiding me to delve deeper into what I was struggling with. Her insights and approach helped me to recognise what I needed in those moments and take control. I can’t tell you enough about the benefits! Everything was at my pace, so I never felt any pressure, and I looked forward to our sessions and what I would learn from them each time.” – Senior Communications Manager
Group & 1-2-1 Coaching – “I had a lot on my plate, both personally and professionally. I was home-schooling a 4-year old with a toddler in tow and working full-time at home amidst the chaos! I also had an interview and some decisions to make about my professional development. Deb helped me to prioritise my own wellbeing and bring a calm, considered perspective to a really difficult situation. She coached me to renegotiate my working hours, which had an incredibly positive impact on my wellbeing, and boosted my morale and confidence when it was much needed. She has changed my perspective, way of thinking, helped me to listen, and encouraged me to believe in myself. She was and is an advocate, confidante, coach and cheerleader. Aside from their commitment to dynamic working, I feel that Deb is the best investment that my employer has made to my wellbeing in my eight years with the company.” – Communications Manager

1-2-1 Coaching – “Her intuitive coaching and leadership has allowed me to develop skills which have supported me having a very successful and nourishing career. During times of challenge professionally she’s provided guidance, support and nurtured me through. Never solving the problem for me, Deb simply helped me find my way through for myself. Her focus on personal reflection too ensures no experience is lost, there’s something to be learned from everything, she helps you find the good in whatever you’ve gone through.” – Programme Manager

Peer Reference – “I’ve known Debs for a few years now and her knowledgeable positivity, professionalism, caring nature and visionary ideas inspire me more and more. If you want to be lifted up to be the best and happiest that you can be, she’s definitely a lady to spend time as much time with as you can.”- Mindfulness Teacher
1-2-1 Coaching – “In the very early days of lockdown I was in a bad place. I remember so clearly being sat in my garden on the phone with Deb and I could barely get my words out. I was overwhelmed, frightened and lonely. From that first conversation I knew Deb was the perfect person to support me. She’s calm, kind, an incredible listener but she’s also gently firm with you when you need encouragement. Deb works in a logical and clear way. She’s pragmatic and with that she helps you take practical steps to achieve a goal, at the perfect pace. Over the course of several weeks and sessions she helped rebuild me. I just wish I could have a mini Deb on my desk all day, every day!” – Communications Manager
1-2-1 Coaching – “I was dealing with a difficult work situation that I’d never experienced before and it was impacting me both at work and at home. I was feeling really isolated and struggling to cope. Having sessions with Deb was the best thing I could have done. She helped me to break the problems down and create specific action plans to help me tackle different things as they came up, as well as being a support to just talk things through with. I’ve had been having sessions for a couple of months and I genuinely don’t think I could have got through this without Deb. Her support and guidance has been incredible.” – Communications Manager
Organisations
I support organisational teams by delivering presentations, workshops and 1-2-1 coaching, helping people to thrive in order that they can excel in the workplace without sacrificing their health and personal life to do so.

1-2-1 Coaching – “I have thoroughly enjoyed the coaching sessions – what a positive impact you are having on my work, life and personal well-being.

Team Coaching & Business Partnering – “I knew that this year was going to be tough for me and my team. A new CEO plus new strategy and a renewed reliance on our team to create compelling content to engage colleagues at a lower cost. I wanted to find a way to support the team and a few individuals in handling difficult times, understanding stress and building resilience. Deb has been critical in supporting us to make this happen. Feedback about her and her content has been superb. Results from both her workshop and individual coaching sessions have been incredible. She quickly understood our needs and sought to find solutions that are practical and simple to implement.” – Communications Director, Financial Services.

1-2-1 Coaching – “I cannot thank you enough for the coaching and guidance you have given me over the last few months. It has helped me think differently and approach things in a manner I wouldn’t have thought of before. The practical tips and techniques you have given me are helping me immensely It’s been an absolute pleasure being coached by you.” – Senior Communications Manager, Financial Services
Resilience For Leaders Workshop – “Sometimes you don’t know what you need until it’s too late. And let’s be honest, that doesn’t work! I was lucky to be part of my leadership team that went on a Stress and Resilience course with Deb and it really opened my eyes and made a huge difference. Personally, I tend to keep things bottled up – which works for me mostly and that’s fine – but there are people In the workplace that aren’t wired that way, and Deb’s course really educated me on the nuances of others. Her manner, candour and patience were key to helping me and others to see how we can take ourselves and our teams through challenging times. If you think your team is struggling and could do with some reflection and guidance, Deb is exactly who you want!” – Senior Communications Manager, Financial Services

Resilience Presentation – comments included “Really beneficial. I have had struggles with stress and anxiety for many years. It’s been great to understand stress on a more scientific level and tactics to combat it.”, “The session was so interesting, understanding why we react the way we do – and also understanding how and why others react the way they do. Simple techniques that everyone can implement.”, and “Fascinating to understand the biology behind stress and the practical tips were really do-able.

Wellbeing Presentation – “Deborah delivered a keynote talk at our first ever digital wellbeing conference in January 2021 and was an absolute delight to work with before, during and after the event. Talking about her lived experiences with burnout, the session was inevitably fully booked to 250 max capacity on Microsoft Teams. Some of the comments from participants during the sessions were “a lot of what you said resonated for me and also a lot validated”, “absolutely loved that – thank you for sharing your experience”, “thank you so much, so useful and thought provoking”, “very inspiring, tears in the eye because of how relatable” and “I think a lot of us will recognize bits of this in ourselves.” I would highly recommend Deborah.” – HR Business Partner
Group Coaching – “Your support and guidance has been amazing during 2020. We’ve been on such a rollercoaster together and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to have held our hands as we gripped on tight. Nothing could prepare us for what we’ve all had to navigate but I know now, that if and when another lockdown comes, I’ve got all the tools and importantly the support, to navigate it. Our sessions very much gave a sense of comfort and support. The camaraderie with my peers has been invaluable and will continue beyond our sessions. You helped make a virtual connection very real and we’ve all felt the benefit of that.” – Project Manager

Resilience Presentation – “Thank you so much for your time, energy and inspiration. We really appreciate the time you have taken to get to know us and what we needed to achieve the desired outcome from this presentation.” – Practice Manager, Financial Services
