FEATURED
"I kept calm, didn't fumble, and got all of my points across, and they seemed to be well received. I even had the confidence to send the CEO a few notes afterwards on the agreed next steps. Teammates contacted me afterwards to say what a good job I had done for them in the meeting. Being able to pull that off with all of the other pressures that are on at the moment is a real credit to you. Thank you for getting me in a good place for the meeting."

Learning with Dyslexia
★★★★★
My coaching sessions with Alexa have been priceless and have made a huge difference to both my professional and personal life. I feel that I understand myself and my ADHD so much better, and I am learning to work with my brain rather than constantly feeling that I should be doing things differently. Alexa gives me a safe, non-judgemental space to untangle what can sometimes feel like a very busy and overwhelming mind. She helps me identify what is actually important, recognise the progress I am making and turn my thoughts into realistic actions. The sessions have helped me enormously with organisation, boundaries, decision-making, managing overwhelm and creating a healthier balance between my business and the rest of my life. Most importantly, I feel more confident, more self-aware and much more in control of the direction I am going in. I genuinely look forward to my sessions and consider them an invaluable part of my wellbeing and development. The impact has gone far beyond work – it is helping me make positive changes across my whole life.

★★★★★
Thank you for the coaching. It has changed how I see myself. I've always had these skills, my superpowers, and I never realised it until now.
Finding my strengths and my core values was the best part for me. Now that I know them, I think it will change me for good.
Client with Dyslexia
★★★★★
"I have greatly valued Alexa's insight and support, with the ability to challenge long-held patterns and behaviours, which is intuitively aimed straight at the heart of the matter and delivered with a hefty dose of compassion. Our work together has allowed me to explore what I can affect and ways I can think differently about areas I cannot influence. A joint exploration with the uncovering of these attitudes with such kindness is a true testament to Alexa's approach. As a result of having a more balanced understanding, positive change is visible."
Client with ADHD
★★★★★
"I really want to take this opportunity to thank you so much for your incredible support and guidance! Since we began working together, I've felt so much more empowered to advocate for myself and navigate challenges with greater confidence, as I've become far more in tune with my emotions. Your coaching has genuinely had a lasting and positive impact, and I'm really grateful for the time, insight, and care you've shared with me."
International Educator
★★★★★
"During my coaching sessions with Alexa her calm and positive nature created a safe environment in which I felt I could talk openly and freely. She asked pertinent questions, actively listening and provoking me to think of alternative directions in those uncomfortable moments. She communicates and supports in such a way that has given me courage and belief in myself. Plus, she is effective at helping me break bigger initiatives into manageable steps, and she holds me accountable to those steps. I would certainly recommend her as a coach."

"It has been a welcome and interesting journey to be coached by Alexa. I'm glad I made time and took the opportunity to review where I am and what the future can hold. We dig deep, exploring underlying motivations and discovering what is possible and how. The how is really important: it isn't just about identifying aspirations, Alexa will probe you so you find solutions within yourself so you have a pathway to move forward."
