But don’t just take my word for it.

I can now see the wood for the trees

I came to coaching to seek clarity on whether or not to change my career and which direction to take.

It was good to have a ‘listener’ who could pick out recurring themes and key topics whilst I just talked about an issue – too often when performing any self-analysis it’s difficult to see the wood for the trees.

Sarah did an excellent job of replaying back what I had said in a succinct format that really exposed the core of any issues.

I gained a set of tools to help unblock previous ways of thinking, and I defined steps that are moving me closer to my desired outcome.”

– Paul, product manager

I defined my leadership style

“Sarah from Happiness Express helped me to develop my own leadership style consistent with my values and aspirations.

She is a great listener and quickly understood the challenges I face in my business.

She helps to get a wide-angle view whilst at the same time dealing with the day-to-day challenges of managing and leading a business.

I have no hesitation in recommending her for group or one-to-one coaching and leadership development.”

– Gordon, director

Powerful questions to probe deeper

I wanted to remove barriers in my thinking and change my negative beliefs. To my surprise, It has really worked as I am now more positive, avoid procrastination and get out of dips quicker.

One technique Sarah taught me is to write down what’s gone well work-wise and to review those positives regularly.

Her powerful questions helped me see what I really want,deeper than I would myself! I always left the session with one or two really good take-aways that have stuck with me.

The session I remember most is the one where I came without a topic, as all was going well with my business. Sarah asked, ‘What did you do to make things go well and how can you remember this when things are not going well?’ and that was such a powerful approach.

I have a better sense of my goals and they’re more authentic to me. As a result, I have a much clearer direction for my business.”

– Inge Woudstra-Van Grondelle, Expert Diversity & Inclusion, W2O Consulting

Building confidence with mock interviews

“Sarah helped me clarify and build bridges between two quite different professional strands – mindfulness training and town planning.

I appreciated how patient, attentive, professional and friendly she has been through this process. In particular, the mock job interview sessions gave me lots of confidence prior to a job interview.

The suggestion to explore mind-mapping has proved particularly valuable in clarifying a future direction for ‘mindfullife’.

Sarah’s natural positivity made the sessions a pleasant experience. She has provided lots of excellent tips to follow up, which made each session part of a broader process of clarification.

I have already recommended Sarah to friends and intend to keep in contact with her in the future.”

– Dean Wooding, town planner & mindfulness trainer

The right tool for the right situation

“Sarah was excellent at listening and understanding the issues. She very quickly got to the crux of my issue.The work she did with me was extremely tangible. She helped me set goals, and together we checked and verified in each session if I was closer.She helped me find the right tools to use for the right situations. She broke down the bigger issue into smaller manageable chunks and helped me find out how to deal with each one.I have gained more confidence in myself and know that when I face difficulty, I will be able to use the tools and techniques I learned with Sarah.And the best part of working with Sarah is that I actually watched myself succeed at the goals we set. This in turn boosted my confidence to set more goals to achieve. Thank you Sarah.”

– Tauneel McKay, IT director

The power of visualisations

“I arrived at coaching with a whole array of thoughts and worries, but the mantras and visualisations were very powerful and helped me to move from a negative to a positive mindset. Now I can practice these exercises any time I need them.The impact of coaching has been far-reaching. I’m much more grounded in the present, I’m more positive and confident and I’ve even gained some new clients for my business.I’m certainly not the same person that started coaching six weeks ago! I have a much more optimistic outlook on life.My experience with Sarah has left me in no doubt that I’d recommend her and I’ll likely return to her in the future.”
