The Women’s Life Coach

Creating space for you

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jan – she is a fantastic life/ work coach. I worked with her last year on some ideas and am still feeling her positive and creative influence in my decisions going forward. She is very supportive, encouraging and great fun to work with. Holly Hesson

Sometimes, when you’re feeling stuck, what you need is a bit of space. And someone to lean on, someone who will focus on you, on your needs, on your aspirations, on your unique life.

You might feel stuck in the middle: in the middle of busyness, in the midst of a decision, in the middle of everybody else’s wants, needs and demands, stuck in an old job that doesn’t suit you any more, stuck somewhere in the middle of your life, and longing to move on.

You might feel ready, more than ready, mad keen in fact to make changes, starting NOW, but at the same time you’re stuck in a sea of overwhelming possibilities, or unable to imagine how things could ever change.

Sometimes when you’re feeling stuck like that, what you need is a bit of space. Some time to think, to plan, to explore, to clarify. To get rid of that negative voice in your brain telling you that you can’t do it.

I can help you create that space.

That, in a nutshell, is what life coaching for women is all about.

I help you to create the space, then stay by your side encouraging you and challenging you, supporting you as you do the rest.

The good news is that there are changes you can make straight away which will immediately start to move you out of that stuck place. By getting your life right, right here and now, you will open up previously unimagined possibilities for the future. And what’s more you can bring lightness and excitement into your life; find your fun and enthusiasm and use them to the full in everything you do.   continue reading

Since 1994 I’ve been doing personal development work with women who want to change their lives. Seven years ago I trained in life coaching and I put this alongside other experience and skills, like training and teaching adults for example, to create a unique, organic way of working one-to-one. Since then I’ve worked with many women just like you. Women who are longing to get moving, but who are just plain old stuck and can’t seem to find the space they need to create a change.

So, here’s a suggestion. How about working with me for a little while? I can listen to your story, cast a more objective eye over your situation, ask questions, to help you to dig around in some of the issues which have got you super-glued in this stage of your life.

“I very strongly felt – from first talking to you – that you ‘got’ what I was about. That understanding and quality of listening are so rare. I know it’s your ‘job’ – but it’s beyond that, I really felt that.” RC, Yorkshire

Together we can create the space you need, through regular coaching sessions. Working face to face, or by telephone, you’ll tell me about your life, your hopes, your constraints, your fears. You’ll tell me your story.

I’ll listen, I’ll ask you questions, I’ll point out contradictions and help you develop a clear vision of how you want your life to be then keep you focused, challenging and supporting you when you doubt your own ability and being consistently ‘on your side’ to encourage you in your exploration of change…

Life is a journey, as we all know; how about…

how about if you continued on that journey living life really well, feeling great about yourself, confident, happy, bursting with curiosity and enthusiasm. You may walk down the same road, but for you there are opportunities around every corner, your life is an adventure — you can even pop down side streets, for who knows what delights are there.

I know that this kind of change is possible for you, too.  I’ve got enough experience under my belt to tell me so: 15 years experience of helping people create the lives they want and almost 7 years of running my own successful personal development/life coaching practise.  I work with women who are ready and willing to take action, who want to start getting unstuck right now, who are ready to create a vivid life for themselves.  That means I can guarantee that within days of our first session you’ll be doing things differently, spotting new possibilities and starting to turn your life around.

“…talking with you helped to move me along when I was feeling very stuck and blocked in my creativity, you, dearest one, helped to open me up again and guided me to trust myself as you encouraged me to value my own uniqueness.” MB Ireland
