"I started working with Rosemary in early 2021 as I transitioned from working as an employee to being self employed - we worked together for a number of months. Before working with Rosemary I was unclear about how I could take my ideas forward. Rosemary helped me to understand what was important to me - not just in my career but in the way I want to thrive going forward. She has a very skilful way of leading her coaching discussions and helping you come to realisations about yourself as a person but also supporting practical next steps. It was great working with tasks between sessions and then bringing them into the next session - this additional input really benefitted the work that we were doing.

Before working with Rosemary I felt daunted about setting up by myself but as we worked together I found myself become more excited and passionate about the business I am trying to build. I am still in the early days but find myself with more confidence and clarity on how I want to take things forward. I also feel that I have some really good tools to use to help me stay on track with my life vision and my values. I had never been coached before working with Rosemary and was unsure how it would work out but it has been a transformational experience for me. I would recommend Rosemary to anyone who is trying to work out their life goals and ways in which to apply them to your working life."
Fiona Young Priest, Charity Consultant

"Rosemary was my Career Coach late last year for a period of time which coincided with the pandemic. She was excellent at helping me to identify what I needed to reignite my flame so that I was alert to future opportunities. I really enjoyed working with Rosemary and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone else who needs to find their inner career spark again."
Linda Allardyce, Regional Executive at ICAEW

"Rosemary works with you to uncover your purpose, map out a plan and walks with you while you take action. When I felt stuck, confused and needed clarity, I came away with insight and inspiration and my head was overflowing with ideas and possibilities and a better idea of the way forwards. She helped to point me in the right direction and leaves you feeling more enthusiastic, uplifted and inspired."
Adam, IT Analyst

"Coaching with Rosemary has helped me to feel more at peace.  My life feels more honest and satisfying. I was feeling burnt out and a bit isolated when we started to work together, but now I feel more connected - I have a sense of the bigger scheme of things and where I fit into that now.  I feel more content, I have more clarity and I'm now much more hopeful about my future.  I have the inner resources to help me move forwards now".
David, Architect 

"Rosemary helped me to gain confidence in writing applications and achieving success at interview.  She also provided with me with invaluable guidance and support to help me overcome a number of other challenges in my life too.  She offers great advice and a fresh perspective to help you see life differently and she encourages and supports you to approach things in a more empowered way."
Kate, Teaching Assistant and Textile Artist 

"I've seen a huge change in the way that I look at things through working with you.  It's given me power and perspective as you helped me to realise that I get to choose how I make meaning of life and situations and how to discern for the truth and what's in alignment for me.  This has created a sense of freedom and ease as I feel less stressed and more in flow and I'm much happier and more productive.  The insights gained were invaluable and the exercises you taught me I continue to use every day.  Thank you so very much for your warmth, support and encouragement and I greatly enjoyed our sessions and time together."
Michelle, Financial Director

"I wanted to make the move away from Academia and had no idea where to start or how to convey my experience to a commercial employer.  Rosemary gave me ideas, inspiration and loads of practical support, from how to present my CV and applications in a jargon-free way, to coaching me in how to perform well at interview.  With her help, I landed a great job in Statistical Research.  I was really impressed and I'm very very grateful for all her help and support."
Jenny, Research Manager, National Statistics Office

"Since working with Rosemary, I can honestly say I have changed my life.  My stress and anxiety has massively reduced and I now have new techniques to help me stay calm and focused and perceive and think differently.  She knows so much about the mind and body and brain and how they are all connected and explains things in a practical way that even an obsessive thinker like me could grasp. Her techniques really work. I no longer have racing thoughts and don't feel stuck anymore.  She helped me get out of survival mode and back into living and loving my life again. Her methods have had a really transformational impact on my life and wellbeing and I feel much calmer and happier - I'm now much more present in work and family life - plus I have tools to help me stay on track and no longer get derailed or overwhelmed when things happen now"
Paul, Partner, Legal Services Professional

"Rosemary really knows her stuff and has so much life experience which is invaluable when you are working with her -  she offers insight, guidance, coaching and real expertise.  She can help you transform your career and your relationships and will encourage you to find more meaning, purpose and fulfilment in your life.  She 'meets' you wherever you are and sees and listens to what's going on and is great at helping you see your blind spots and make positive shifts. Very rewarding."
Caroline, Designer, California

"Many thanks for your time today and previously, I've always found our chats extremely useful thought-provoking and a great influence on the way I think and do things.  In particular I've appreciated advice based on your own experiences and your flexible approach: to someone brought up with perfectionism and to always avoid making mistakes that's been invaluable, to know I can try things that may not work and need modifying - many times.  It's also been very helpful to know you've been through some of the same circumstances so your tips seem even more valid.

Thank you so very much for all your inspirational help over the past few months, you've really made a big difference to my ability to deal with life! All best wishes and eternal gratitude...."
Jean, Accountant and Coaching Client

"I worked with Rosemary to help me understand a difficult time in my personal development and to breakthrough resistance to things I wanted to learn and explore. She took time to go through many techniques with me and helped me through the barriers and gave me further mentoring, advice and support through my development journey. A very wise woman indeed."
Kath Griffin, Account Manager at HH Global

"I had been doing voluntary NGO work overseas and was trying to get a foothold back in the job market in the UK.  I worked with Rosemary and her advice, guidance and insight was invaluable in helping me secure a great job with a top consulting firm. She provided me with resources to help me research potential employers and taught me how to position all of my achievements and experience in a positive light and to market this to employers.  I ended up with a couple of good job offers and I'm now working for a great firm that is clearly aligned with my goals and values.  I'm so pleased I had the opportunity to work with Rosemary and can't thank her enough"  Anna, Consultant Engineer

"Working with Rosemary has brought a number of positive changes into my life. She is very knowledgeable about many aspects of life, such as wellbeing, relationships and careers and also helped me to explore my mind, body and spirit connection and understand how they are all inter-related and to find out what this really means for me. At the time we started working together, I was feeling overwhelmed and struggling to cope and she guided and encouraged me to love and embrace all parts of me.  She brings love, compassion and deep wisdom and insight to her work.  I feel more peaceful, happy and grounded as a result and more like the real me."  Sandra, Project Manager

"Firstly, thank you for a great session today and for your insights and advice both today and previously. You have made a big difference to my progress over the last year or so, and we’ve also had many a good chuckle. Your bubbly lively positive style really clicks with me and has been a great help to me on starting on my new path." N, Retired Finance Director

"I started working with Rosemary following a very difficult time when I was feeling overwhelmed by events, unable to see the way ahead and lacking confidence in my abilities. Rosemary used her extensive skills to help me draw on my strengths and to focus on both what I already had and on how I could shape my future. With regular coaching sessions Rosemary gave me the tools to help me move forward and I would not hesitate to recommend her for coaching. Thank you Rosemary"
Emma, Solicitor

"I wanted to say a massive thank you for the magic you worked making my CV look more than presentable. I hardly recognised myself when I read through it!

"Thank you for your guidance over the last few months. Your kind, warm nature, enthusiasm, patience and ability to really listen and understand my ideas however far-fetched was really appreciated. I am still working it all out but I value the perspective you brought." Emma, Financial Analyst

"I got advice from Rosemary when I was looking for some clarity in life and career direction. She was very empathetic and very quick to suggest a range of tools and exercises to help me to define my priorities and to explore options. I particularly appreciated that she was very skilled at finding the right balance between listening to what I was sharing and offering her own advice. I felt that she was able to offer me a good way to identify my main priorities going forward."
Alex, Senior Global Accountant

"I want to thank you as our coaching really helped me.  Talking things through with you gave me lots of insights and gave me the confidence to apply for another job that's a much better fit.  It also helped me to clearly articulate my skills and strengths and why I wanted the job.  Our coaching really helped to boost my morale and realise what had been missing and what was not working and how I want to develop going forwards.  I'm now really happy to be in a new job and company that feels much more in alignment for me"

"Rosemary was absolutely fantastic with the level of detail of all lectures and constant use of anecdotes.  Thank you so much for this life-changing course!"

"Fantastic course, SO helpful! Really clearly explained the concepts of what mindsets are and how they can help or harm us. Loved that Rosemary used plenty of real life examples and gives loads of practical advice and exercises that I'm definitely going to implement. Highly recommend this. It's helped me get a much better understanding of how to uplevel my mindset to create genuine success and really improve my results"

"Rosemary was positive, supportive and clearly demonstrates expertise and was very generous in terms of imparting her knowledge and experience to the group"

"Very insightful. Rosemary has excellent knowledge and experience. Superb!"

"Friendly, accessible, welcoming and often fun.  Communication was clear and objective and the breadth and depth of material was very positive.  Questions were well received and answered and having 1:1 access was particularly helpful and constructive and I was able to benefit from Rosemary's advice and wisdom.  The whole course was very interesting and illuminating"

"I really enjoyed this presentation, Rosemary has a knack for presenting in a fresh and genuine way using relatable examples"

"Rosemary's advice on CVs, career anchors, self-reflection and interviews was extremely good and useful.  It was in-depth and practical, interactive and inclusive.  We were all invited to express feelings and contribute to discussions.  A heart-felt congratulations and thank you."

"This course really increased my understanding of how my pattern of thinking and perception adopted as a child directly affects so many aspects of my life. As importantly, Rosemary shares practical tools and techniques for how to turn them around in a way to create desired outcomes, both personally and professionally. I see how I developed some emotional and behavioral responses to people and life in general, and what my unconscious expectations are which cause limitations in my life [as we all have], especially in my career but also in my personal life.

The world focuses so much emphasis on outer achievement and success, but when your thoughts, feelings and expectations are not always serving you well, your accomplishments can be unknowingly blocked. The information in this course is profound, inspiring and very unique. I'm now motivated to reach my highest potential and Rosemary has helped me to gain the insights, understanding and mindset shifts to create meaningful and sustainable success!"

"Thanks so much for such an inspirational course."

"I was hoping that the course would provide me with practical advice and know-how and it did exactly what it said on the tin and was geared towards my situation as a Professional looking for employment.  Excellent delivery and highly recommended."
