Watch what Natasha has to say about our Executive & Leadership coaching:

"I initially approached Claire with a very definite idea of what work coaching would do. I thought I might get some pointers on how to be a better leader as we navigate a particular business journey. I got that, but I was also afforded time to focus on myself, identify and celebrate the small wins that add up to the big ones and to reframe anxiety into something useful.

 

Claire was able to guide me in such a way that none of this was too daunting, and I'm energised and ready to take the next step and whatever might come after that!"

Watch what Dan has to say about our
Personal /  Life coaching:

"Claire creates a brilliant environment that enables me to get to the point of being impelled to solve my own problems. I guess that's why I chose Claire.

 

She works in a way where she doesn't push you and she doesn't solve the problem for you, but she doesn't let you off the hook.

 

She challenges you to deal with the issue that you've been avoidant of, so that's very much why I really enjoyed working with her."​

“I really appreciate Claire’s enthusiasm, clarity, and kindness. She has a rare ability to offer exactly the right nudge or reframing just when it’s needed.

The combination of mentoring, coaching, and consultancy has been transformative — it’s helped me take 'Second Wind' from an idea to a real, live course. It’s honestly a bargain for the value it delivers.”

Claire’s Magic Mix partnership is giving Nick both strategic direction and hands-on support, allowing him to launch his programme with confidence and clarity.

What Leaders & Changemakers Say

"I've had a brilliant first coaching session with Claire and felt incredibly seen and heard throughout our call. She asked me some super thought-provoking questions during and after to reflect on (which I loved to do), and it all gave me a fresh perspective on my work life. I feel totally empowered and confident now to move forward in my business, and that's a big thanks to Claire - I can't wait for our next session!"
