  • It was really helpful talking about what sort of tasks I enjoyed, what my skills were and talking in detail about what sort of worker I am and what my overall aims are! Caroline's sessions definitely made me consider parts of my career/skills that I hadn't before. I also really appreciated the help and advice she gave concerning my CV, how I could better connect with my peers and how to approach new job roles.

    Aimee, Hampshire

  • Caroline facilitates an environment which was incredibly open, honest, productive, and comfortable. She perfectly strikes the balance between being your biggest cheerleader/a brilliant pal and being an expert coaching professional with the knowledge and tools to get you where you want to be. She gives fantastic advice and, perhaps more impressively, she asks the probing questions which empower you to reach conclusions yourself. I am so glad I worked with Caroline. She made me feel seen and understood and is exactly the style of coach I needed. I would not be in the position of career confidence and contentment (and on the precipice of something I'm hugely excited about!) without her guidance. Caroline is the best.

    Leanne, London

  • Caroline has had a profoundly valuable effect on my professional journey in a relatively short space of time. Steadily and gently, I've built a renewed sense of purpose and confidence that previously had been so shrouded by confusion and limiting beliefs. Caroline's mix of empathy and flexibility was always anchored to a reassuring pragmatism, and a well-informed grasp of what it means to navigate through today's job market. There has been freedom to venture into deeper territory, exploring more introspective or philosophical ideas but then find a sensible route back to practical, tangible, everyday advice that I'll carry with me for a long time. I’ve appreciated Caroline's positivity, her wisdom and her professionalism - I wholeheartedly recommend her to anybody with even an ounce of motivation for self-improvement!

    Nick, London

  • Caroline really helped me understand my pain points, what was holding me back and what steps I could take to improve my work situation. She’s very knowledgeable when it comes to coaching techniques, and her questions often sparked new ideas and those “Ooh!” realisation moments. Caroline has a supportive and motivating way of working. The exercises we did were really helpful, and I now feel much clearer about what to do next. She’s a real cheerleader and truly cares about helping you succeed. I definitely recommend working with Caroline!

    Bianca, London

  • Working with Caroline has been transformational for me, I went from not knowing what I needed or wanted from my career to knowing exactly how I want to show up at work and what that work needs to bring to my life in order for me to feel fulfilled.

    Tia, Warwickshire

  • Working with Caroline over the past few months has been incredibly valuable and one of the best investments I've made. Caroline’s knowledge and guidance have helped me gain a much clearer understanding of how I view my professional life, what truly matters to me, and the environments in which I work best. She’s helped me identify the right goals for me personally, rather than just following what I thought I “should” be doing and for that I couldn't be more grateful! Talking with her felt like speaking to a best friend – someone who listens, supports, and challenges you in just the right way. She's absolutely amazing, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
