 Getting unstuck and finding purpose

“I came to Ann-Mari incredibly stuck. I had no clue what to do with my life, or even what I really wanted anymore but gently, skilfully, intuitively, she guided me through a process so that over time a new direction emerged, something so completely me and yet I don't believe I could ever have got there by myself. She has an infinite amount of resources to help with whatever you may throw at her. I have never before had such an awareness of who I am, what I value and what I’m capable of. It’s laid the foundations upon which to build a very different life. I will always be hugely grateful for the work we did together.”

A new career direction

“Ann~Mari was a great coach. Her ability to put me at my ease and encourage me to explore my values and motivations has helped me appraise what really matters to me. Ann~Mari used a range of tools with real sensitivity and skill to move me from a place where I was very unhappy in my current job, feeling trapped, to having the courage to hand in my notice and take a new career direction. I now feel excited and equipped (and a bit nervous) about the next chapter of my life.”

Finding focus, passion and confidence

“I contacted Ann-Mari at a time when I was stuck in a negative place after a long period of unsuccessful job seeking. I was looking for some inspiration to carry on searching and already after our first coaching session I felt like the weight of my concerns had started lifting.

“Ann-Mari has great and relevant life experience to advise and guide and has many impactful exercises. I found it empowering speaking with her and I surprised myself by feeling focussed, passionate and confident, because I didn't feel that at all when we started. As a result of working with Ann-Mari, I found an exciting new senior role which is something that I couldn’t have imagined 6 months before.  I can highly recommend her and I'm sure I will return myself in the future.”

An exciting creative venture!

“What stood out from the start was Ann-Mari's intuition. She was immediately able to use her intuitive sense to ascertain where my blocks lay. I had a number of sessions with her where I felt very open, very safe and able to share deeply. On each occasion she was able to support and challenge me in order that I could find my next step. Over 6 months, Ann-Mari helped me move from a stuck place to finding the perfect expression of my skills and passions in a new and exciting creative venture!”
