Confidence around life choices and Career opportunities

My experience with coaching was overall very positive.

The work on the Wheel of Priorities was useful to enable me to drill down to key areas I should focus on.

Although I had some prior knowledge of the coaching process, a handful of times I experienced difficulties in responding due to the fact that naturally I felt the need for advice rather than coaching. However the techniques that we used did help in changing this mind set enabled me to better understand the challenges I was currently facing in achieving my goals.

The structure of the sessions followed the same format each week, follow up on the previous session, setting the area to work for on the current session, and finishing by ensuring i had a clear understanding of the objectives for the next session. Personally I found this very useful because it meant I knew what to expect, and so my energies where channeled towards working through y objectives.

On a personal level, I found Nicky to be an open and friendly coach but also very professional. 

During a coule of the sessions, I was feeling overwhelmed and my emotions were running a little high! Nicky responded with real empathy and help me find a way of overcoming my difficulties.

She was able to accommodate changes in direction throughout the course of sessions as my goals seemed to change and evolve.

I felt she was very attentive, always listening very carefully not just what I was saying but also the way in which it was being said. This revealed some additional areas to help me make even more progress in my goals.

I've really benefited form Nicky's sessions and I look forward to returning for further coaching in the future.
