Who I am and why this work matters


My story…

IMG_4394

A million years ago (2002 actually), I was selected for a development programme at the company I worked at. This meant that in addition to the normal workload of a manager with 7 staff members (quite substantial), I had to somehow squeeze in another 10 hours a week. And I was already working through lunch and until 5:30 – 6:00 every night.

I felt like I was this close to burn-out and it was only February.

My saving grace was that I had a coach! And one of the first things I worked through with her was…time management. I told her that my goal was to only work until latest 5 o’clock every night, take regular lunch breaks and have time to join the gym.

Within 2 months, I had the life I’d dreamed of, I had time for everything and yes, I’d joined the gym. Working with a coach accelerated my progress like nothing else had before, not only with time management but also my general career progress.

I was sold on coaching and wanted to help other people improve their lives in the same way. So I got trained and started coaching my own staff and a couple of other people at the company, and eventually started taking private coaching clients.

And that’s where I am today – I inspire busy women to break out of overwhelm, make the most of their time and take purposeful and focussed action so they have the time and freedom to live life to the full.

Are you thinking of working with me?
