Testimonials
What my clients say about how my coaching supported their journey of positive change…
“I have become a strong advocate for coaching and recommend it to my family and friends as a result of my very positive experiences of using Dave as a coach.”
“I worked with Dave to navigate ongoing work-life balance challenges while embarking on a new job. The sessions allowed me to hone in on specific issues, leveraging our discussions to contemplate options and formulate action plans. The coaching sessions provided me with a sense of control and confidence, empowering me to face challenges in a more positive and solution-oriented manner. I am grateful for the support and impact these sessions had.”
Sense of control and confidence
“Doing coaching sessions with Dave was an opportunity I couldn’t miss. I was considering a new business initiative, but had many concerns and felt unsure about my next steps. Dave was extremely helpful in structuring my thought process and laying a clearer path to my goals. I’m happy that I opted to be Dave’s client, strongly consider continue working with him in the future and can wholeheartedly recommend him as a coach to anyone facing the challenge of taking on something new.”
Laying a clearer path to my goals
“My coaching sessions were extremely useful and they equipped me with practical tools and actions to plan the next steps in my career feeling confident that I will achieve a better balance and feel happier. Before starting the sessions, I was feeling quite lost and negative about my current career choices. I wasn’t sleeping well and was feeling tense and this was having an impact on other areas of my life. I now feel more empowered to take steps that will make me feel good in the longer term and I have already started to act on many of the areas we covered. Thanks!”
Empowered to take steps
“Worked with Dave to help me make a decision. He had useful frameworks and tools and challenged me to work through the content needed to apply them. This was unlike speaking with a friend, Dave was patient but no nonsense and pushed me to come to conclusions. Each session was flexed to the progress (or not) that I’d made between sessions, so each was useful in itself; but overall I not only made the decision but was left feeling upbeat and confident in my next steps.”
Feeling upbeat and confident
“Through Dave’s coaching, I came to realize the importance of negotiating the balance in my life and that this balancing act will always be present. I also realized through prompted self-reflection that I was often the biggest blocking factor in being able to achieve my goals. I found this very empowering because it means I also have the power to remove blocking factors to achieving my goals through small, but measurable steps each day while also giving myself grace to make progress without worrying about being perfect.”
Prompted self-reflection
“It was a great experience to have life coaching sessions with Dave. I’ve known Dave professionally before I engaged with him on the life coaching journey over the last few weeks, and found his structured questions and answers approach hugely helpful to stay focussed and pin down the root cause of the emotional barriers I have been facing. He also guided me to prepare a list of measurable and more importantly doable actions to overcome those barriers and challenges, and ultimately achieve and appreciate happiness in life. Thank You, Dave!”
