Service: One-to-One Coaching

I am grateful for the opportunities that your coaching has presented me. I have recently completed an advocacy academy for children, young people and parents being their trusted voice; I have a bit more reading to do; however, I will be able to start in September 2024. I am looking into possibly going to do some studying around the several types of advocacy.

At the start of the coaching programme in January 2024, I needed some coaching for the next part of my career which is working with children/young adults, you have given me great support, and I have gained more skills, and confidence in knowing what I want, believing that anything is possible, and taking chances.
This has made me reflect on my journey, as I continue to look at the Coaching Wheel Activity which was completed earlier in the year. This will be an ongoing tool that I will use to remind me of my goals.

One of the sessions I found powerful was the visualisation exercise; this took me to my past and present and made me think about my vision and goals.
Some key words from this coaching session that have left an impact on me are:

Do it like you have already achieved it?
Managing my expectations
Learn, Develop and Progress
Keep being initiative-taking.
Fight, Flight or Freeze response.
If mountains were smooth, you would not be able to climb them.

I can honestly say you have pushed me out of my comfort zone, and I am looking forward to the next chapter in my career journey.
