"Things are changing and I feel lost"​
"I'm on autopilot. I'm not sure what I really want." ​
"I can't handle this. I'm not good enough"
​
Recognise these thoughts? I've been there. It's hard. Taking steps to change can seem daunting. I'm here to support you - providing a space without judgement and with warmth and understanding. You have invaluable strengths hidden under those limiting beliefs. I know you can do this.
​
Through coaching, you can find the path that's right for you. As your coach, I will listen and use questions and tools to help you uncover the knowledge that's hiding inside you. You're the expert on your life - I'll help you find your answers.
I've lived a life of change - in careers, countries, learning and lifestyles. I've come to coaching after a career in innovation, strategy and journalism - much of it spent in mobile and tech. Throughout, I've had a passion for understanding people: how we function, what impacts us and how we can guide our own lives. I bring knowledge of psychology and cognitive neuroscience to help underpin my coaching skills. I initially trained as a coach in 2016. In 2023, I committed to taking it forward. I did extensive training with the Co-Active Training Institute. and became a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach. For me, the Co-Active experience has been transformational. I've discovered who I really am, found my direction and my confidence. I'm thrilled to use these skills to help others transform their lives.

Getting back to yourself & making conscious choices
Coaching - what it is and isn't
Throughout life, we pick up expectations, fears and insecurities that shape our way of being and can obscure what we really are. It's easy to end up on autopilot - or perhaps knowing what's right deep inside, but not quite feeling able to go there. It's easy to feel a bit stuck in some aspect of life. Getting back to yourself is discovering what makes you feel alive and taking the steps to to live those values and that purpose - in life and in your career.
Making conscious, confident choices is using these discoveries as guides when you decide what actions to take. Sometimes, you might choose not to - but doing it consciously is in itself a superpower.
When coaching you, I'll help you find your own answers. I won't tell you what to do or which path to choose - only you can know what is right for your life. What I will do is to ask questions - with curiosity and without any judgement. To fully support you, I might challenge you if I believe it will serve the agenda you brought to coaching.
Coaching starts in the present and looks forward: It asks, what steps do you want to take to change now? It's not therapy.
It's of course confidential. I follow the ethical guidelines of the International Coaching Federation. Read on below for how we'll set it up.
Is it time to get the spark and energy back? Here is what happens:
-
Get in touch with me on hello@sandshinecoaching.com and tell me a bit about what makes you interested in coaching
-
We'll set up a call or Zoom - this is a completely free sample session where we both figure out if we're a good fit for working together. In coaching, trust is important: the power is in the relationship. We'll also discuss the logistics.
-
After the session, you decide if you want to continue and I'll send you an agreement - a bit like a contract
-
Our first session will be longer than the following ones - but I'll explain more about this when we 'meet'!
