Hey…
Ever grow up hearing “I want never gets”?
Same. 👋
Somewhere along the way, we were taught that expressing our needs was selfish, rude, or too much.
So we stopped asking.
We started hinting.
We expected others to “just know.”
And when they didn’t… we felt disappointed, resentful, even invisible.
But here’s the truth:
💡 *“I want” absolutely does get—*when it’s spoken with clarity, confidence, and self-respect.
✨ In my coaching, I help you unlearn the old story that your needs don’t matter and replace it with powerful tools to:
✅ Set clear expectations without guilt
✅ Communicate what you really want (without conflict)
✅ Create stronger, more honest relationships
✅ Finally feel seen, heard, and understood
🗣️ Being a great communicator isn’t about talking more.
It’s about saying what matters—with heart and conviction.
If you’re done with silent frustration and ready for real connection...
📩 DM me “COMMUNICATE” and let’s explore how coaching can support you.
You’re allowed to want.
You’re allowed to ask.
And yes—you’re allowed to get. 💬💥

Active listening is a game changer!!

Stop talking past each other. Start really listening.

Most relationships break down because we don’t know how to listen. We interrupt. We assume. We get defensive. And then we wonder why we feel so misunderstood.

Active listening isn’t just nodding your head — it’s a skill. One that can stop arguments before they start and bring you closer than ever.

If you:
✔️ Keep having the same fight over and over
✔️ Feel like your partner doesn’t “get” you — or you don’t “get” them
✔️ Want more trust, more connection, more real talk

…it’s time to learn how to actually listen.

My coaching teaches you simple, powerful listening skills you can use right now. No fluff. No games. Just real tools to build a relationship where you both feel heard.

Ready?

**GROUP SESSIONS ARE BACK**

I am pleased and excited to be offering small group Coaching Sessions again.
These take place in my Coaching Studio in Doncaster.

Group Coaching is a value added way of experiencing the coaching process with the additional input of people who want change, just like you do.

I am now building my 'Expression of Interest' list for the workshops listed.

Please message me and/or visit my website for more information and register your interest in attending one or more of these sessions.

Not only do I offer awesome coaching (see testimonials for citation), I also run an Airbnb, in the annex attached to my bungalow. We have had about 100 stays, lovely people, the occasional very messy person, but nothing serious.
Then, this weekend we hit the payload!!
I shall not go into details.

Normality has been restored after some effort and we have given the guests an appropriate Airbnb review.

A friend asked me if I was angry because she would be furious, possibly seeking some kind of recourse.

Here’s the thing. Yes! I was very angry. I was angry for about an hour and then I just got on with it.

You see, staying angry, not moving forward, is, as the saying goes, like drinking poison and expecting the other people to die. Feeling and being angry is good. Holding onto it, not so much!

What emotion are you holding onto that’s hurting you and only you?

Perspective!
It’s difficult to have it, until, well, you have it.
It’s like trying to imagine the view from the top of a hill you have never climbed.
Also, if you’ve been hanging around at the bottom or half way up the hill, you can develop a singular, limiting perspective that can become a belief of how things truly are.

Great coaching will take you on a journey to the top of the hill. From here, you can see multiple perspectives and views, albeit with the power of suggestion and your own imagination.

So, when you return to base camp, it is with enlightenment. There are many different perspectives and your current reality doesn’t have to be your only reality.

You find you’re taking things less personally, you find it easier to forgive and move forward, you find you’re less anxious, more empathetic, less reactive, more responsive. You’re less judgmental and much more curious about other people’s views from the hill.

This is why I coach.

Best job in the world.

*Group and Team leaders and organisers*

Coaching is a transformative and highly effective route to promote self-agency and a proactive mindset.

Working with a number of wellbeing organisations in Doncaster, I have developed a suite of bite-sized sessions that are really having an impact.

Sessions are interactive, run for about one hour and are designed to be informative and thought-provoking.

New topics are currently being developed.

I’d love to talk to you about coaching and how it can benefit your groups and teams.
