What do other people think of my coaching?

“Amanda is a great life coach who I completed a course of sessions with last year. I felt clearer about my short and longer term goals after my sessions with Amanda, and she helped me to create action plans to fulfill my goals.”  Lowra Tomei

 “I have had the pleasure of attending several of Amanda’s sessions, and have been totally impressed with the course content and also with the way Amanda has conducted herself. Amanda has always been very informative and at the same time very interactive, allowing the individual to come up with their own solutions to their own barrier before them.”  Randolph Robinson , Sales Manager, Tiger 11

 “If you give Amanda Walker the opportunity and listen to her advice your life will be better. I can’t say more than that. I have my own personal experience to draw upon to be able to say that honestly. And I know why – it’s because she cares. You shouldn’t expect miracles nor be surprised if you get one. I highly recommend her services to anybody in any position. It’s like having a very kind, trustworthy and forthright sister.”  Tony O’Reilly www.theatom.org 

 “Amanda worked with me in a coaching capacity – she was very professional, to the point and challenged me when I needed my awareness to be raised about my issues in an assertive and yet respectful way. I also worked with Amanda when she chaired a Mastermind group recently. She was highly organised and very effective in making the most of the group dynamic, yet encouraging each individual to shine and recognise their potential. Highly recommended.”  Gill Lucas

 “I have Amanda to thank for my recent career change. Her expert coaching enabled me to make sense of what I had previously always struggled with, and to help me to get a new sense of direction. I have worked with several coaches over the years – Amanda is probably the most perceptive I have ever worked with. She also has the right level of persistence to ensure that she doesn’t “let you off the hook”! I would thoroughly recommend Amanda to anyone who is looking for an exceptional and gifted coach.”  Neil Griffin www.rawblues.net  

 ”2008 was an unusual year for me, as the financial crisis hit, the company I consulted to as a mortgage broker went into liquidation owing me 6 months commission. I spent the rest of the year working the night shift in a gravy granules factory. Which brings us to 2009, I found myself in a position where not only was I unemployed, but my industry has disappeared. Changing professions in the deepest recession we’ve known is not the easiest thing to do. This is when I realised I needed some help and Amanda came to the rescue. Over a couple of hours of skilful questioning I began to realise what my perfect future looked like, something that was very hard to see let alone believe existed, considering the depth of the hole I was in. I had a dream that had been in the back of my head for several years and this was the time to bring it to life. Now I find myself at the start of 2010 with my dream job, I have my own company called The Chilli Jam Man. The coaching sessions I had with Amanda clarified my thoughts and reminded me I had all the tools I needed to get myself out of the hole, I remembered just how self motivated I can be. It felt like the engine in my head needed servicing and a tune up, something I didn’t realise until after my sessions with Amanda, a truly powerful process.”  Simon Barrett – The Chilli Jam Man

 ”I undertook a series of coaching sessions from Amanda from 2009 to early 2010. I was entering a major transitional point in my life, my career was at a cross roads, I was relocating and my financial situation was difficult. I had never had any prior experience of coaching but approached it with an open mind. Over the course of several sessions I was able to arrange my thoughts into practical and achievable goals and started to get a clear idea of what I needed to do next. It helped to provide me with focus at a time when I was not sure which direction I was supposed to be moving in. Since completion of my course of sessions I have achieved all of the things that I started out wondering if I could deal with and have come away from it with satisfaction and increased confidence. Amanda is very approachable, friendly and easy to talk to. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is struggling to achieve something or who needs to define which direction they should be following with their life. “  AP – Leeds.

 ”Unbelievable!  It has taken me from having a few ideas, but not knowing where to start, to having a clear set business plan with an exciting future direction.  Extremely happy with my coaching, would highly recommend.”  Angie Robinson

“I have found the coaching very useful in helping me look at how negative experiences in the past have conditioned my thinking and held me back.  I have used the insights gained to help me organise and structure my time better and to set small, but achievable goals e.g. to spend time reading and writing and also to think more optimistically and constructively about the future.”  Phil Graham

“I have been coached on time management, organisation and procrastination.  I really enjoyed Amanda as my coach, she is easy to talk to, professional and challenging.  When I started I felt anxious about how to organise and prepare my paperwork as a coach and how to do my first face-to-face coaching.  I was procrastinating and avoiding doing the necessary steps.  Through coaching with Amanda I have started to the wood from the trees again.  She helped me to get focused and motivated again, she helped me break the overwhelming tasks into manageable sizes and made me feel in control again.  It really helped me to achieve what I wanted to achieve and to move forward.  I believe Amanda has excellent skills and talent as a coach and I would not hesitate to recommend her.”  Marina Ibrahim

 “I feel that coaching has had an overall impact of making me more positive on a day-to-day basis.  The coaching has made me realise that I am the person who has control of my situation and that I can change things if I want to.  It has been very useful in making me focus very specifically on things I would like to change and act to make them happen.”  Sarah Cave
