What made you decide to try coaching in the first place? I had absolutely no idea what I wanted or where to start looking. I had changed career a few times from being an Audiologist, to a Merchandiser to a Dog Trainer, but it had always been though grabbing hold of an opportunity that came along, and not necessarily because I had set out to do that career. I felt lost and felt that this career change had to be the one that would last - so there was a lot of pressure. What was

What made you decide to try coaching in the first place? I had a steady upward career in technology for 20 years. Returning to work after having two children, my career was still great on paper but I was feeling stuck and I wanted to change. I was advised to look into career coaching. I started looking around but everything seemed off and too much to handle, until I bumped into Amy’s profile. She was very approachable and friendly; even though I had no idea what I was looking

What made you decide to try coaching in the first place? I was in a career that I had fallen in to out of circumstance rather than being passionate about. Over the years I was given more responsibility in areas such as HR and Finance. I was overworked, yet bored and I wanted some changes in my life but didn't want to end up in the same situation again - I wanted to find the right path for me. I always wanted to build a career for myself but I was at the point of losing my ent

What was life and work like before coaching? Can you describe to me your situation when we first met? How were you feeling about your career? When I first met Amy, I had been procrastinating about what to do next. I was working on a supply basis in a job I enjoyed and fitted perfectly with family life. However I knew I wasn't making the most of my skills and strengths. Before having children I'd worked for a big charity in a fulfilling role, and I was looking for a career tha

What was life and work like before coaching with Amy? Can you describe to me your situation when we first met?  I discovered Amy while on maternity leave, knowing I didn’t want to return to my previous job but feeling uncertain about my next steps. After nearly 15 years with the same company, I knew I needed a change but wasn’t sure what that would look like. From our very first consultation, I felt confident that Amy could guide me in finding the right path forward. What did

What was life and work like before coaching? Can you describe to me your situation when we first met?  I’d had my first child and I’d been working in the television industry as a freelance producer for around 14 years which I’ve loved, but change was in the air. Due to becoming a new mother, relocating to a new place and with a crisis in the industry I was in I started to think of what else I could do. Sounded easy in my head but quite quickly turned into something very overw

Tell me about life and work before coaching with Amy?   I was a project manager for the past six years in different industries. The role was often stressful and frustrating, but people told me I was good at it. With every job I took, the time in the role reduced as I was unhappy but would blame the place, culture, or workload. There were elements of these factors in why I kept moving; however, it wasn’t the whole story as to why I was so unhappy. I was in denial and never gav

Can you describe to me your situation when we first met? I was at the lowest point that I think I've ever been at; my confidence was on the floor. I had zero direction, no support. I was my own worst enemy. I felt very alone in the process of what I was doing. I didn't want to end up like a lot of people I knew, taking a job they hated for the sake of it. I just wanted a job that I loved. I really struggled with going to parties or family events where somebody would ask about

Tell me about life and work before coaching with Amy. I was working on a few short-term projects and I was feeling desperate for a long-term role. I would have settled for any job at the time. I spent my time scrolling on LinkedIn, looking at jobs that made me want to cry because I didn't resonate with any of them. I was unable to confidently network and have conversations with people about myself, my work, and my values. Trying to get meetings or initial introductions was ha

What was life and work like before coaching with Amy? I was working in a corporate job I hated, in an industry I found soulless. I’d known for years that I was on the wrong path, but whenever I looked at alternative careers I felt overwhelmed by options, fear, and self-doubt. What if I invested time and energy into studying for a new career, only to find I made the wrong move yet again? What if I chose something I was terrible at? What if my friends and family thought I was m
