I OFFER BESPOKE COACHING SESSIONS + PROGRAMMES TO PEOPLE WHO WANT MORE THAN WHAT THE STATUS QUO OFFERS
I love coaching because I have seen the benefits of it on so many lives. I have always loved ambitious people, those who are not fearful of putting themselves first! Few years ago, I realised that many of us want to be the best version of ourselves to achieve more with as little stress as possible, and build new possibilities for ourselves + our families.

TESTIMONIAL
'I feel extremely lucky to have met Vanessa. Given her experience across many facets of self-development be it coaching, mindset coaching or mentoring. Vanessa is able to draw on her expertise in all areas to give an incredibly well rounded 'treatment' for lack of a better word!
Vanessa's incredible intuition and level of spirituality meant I connected with her on such a deep level and allowed me to really open up without feeling judged or uncomfortable. I also very much appreciate Vanessa's direct approach, not sugar coating anything and being completely honest. At first, I was taken aback by this but it was what allowed me to really get to the crux of my issues and in turn resulted in such an effective outcome.
Vanessa's ability to create a safe space and such an incredibly personalised experience is what makes her so brilliant at what she does. I was kind of upset that she had 'cracked'/helped me so quickly as I wanted to keep having sessions with her! I would always come away feeling BRILLIANT and that is all down to her incredible ability to understand people and deliver information in a way that suits them
Her tools and techniques are amazing and really worked on me. The tangible tools I was able to take away and use in my daily life have been incredibly beneficial and something I will use forever.'

TESTIMONIAL
'The reason I wanted coaching was to build my confidence after two job knock-backs; but also upon reflection it was because I couldn’t understand how to sell myself without being an entirely different version of myself – I needed that balance to be about to pitch myself but in a manner that was like my character. I also needed someone who knew nothing about me to be truthful but also connect with me so they could empathise and be honest with what I specifically need to do. My goal was to be able to get into a higher management position. My biggest doubt was that the coach wouldn’t understand me and would constantly be telling me where I am going wrong and not mentor me through problems I perceived having.
Vanessa’s style matched mine- she was passionate like me; she was smiley and confident and this initially really helped me connect. I think the connection grew that much more, because she actively listened, how she came across she seemed to care very quickly-communication like her body language, eye contact, facial expressions and hand gestures, were all positive and encouraging. She seemed to be my cheer leader in a matter of minutes. Vanessa taught me many things, theories and sayings; I have now learnt truly helps my processing of information and this is the approach Vanessa used. Vanessa’s discussions were thought provoking I would find myself naturally reflecting on the conversation we had and talking through them with my partner, manager.'
