Testimonials:

“I recently finished a 10 session / 20-week stint with Lydia and found the sessions highly rewarding.  As a manager of a reasonably large team, I felt I lacked ability in my position, which affected my confidence and ability to communicate effectively with my team.  With Lydia’s help, I was able to identify what my strengths were, the type of leader I am and what I bring to my company.  I have learnt to focus on my strengths and not let myself be brought down by my weaknesses but see them as an opportunity.  I am so grateful for the lessons I have learnt over the sessions with Lydia and encourage any aspiring professional to utilise Lydia’s expertise to get the most out of yourself and help you grow as a person.” – Project Manager, Private Sector

“I found my coaching session with Lydia very helpful and motivating. Lydia was professional, welcoming and I instantly felt at ease. I was in a place in my career where I felt I needed a new challenge. The idea of a career change was quite daunting, until Lydia with her expertise and guidance managed to keep me focused. Through our session Lydia helped me identify my strengths and also areas in which I needed to improve in order to make the career change as smooth as possible. I have since gained confidence in networking and personal development, and am on the right path to succeed in this next phase of my career.” – Manager, Creative Industry
