Coaching is a process of identifying and removing obstacles in your life which prevent you from being what you want to be.
If you are wondering whether coaching is for you, then start by answering the five key questions below:
1) Are you looking to make changes?
2) Are you ready to take responsibility for where you are, and where you want to move to?
3) Are you open to challenge and fresh perspectives?
4) Are you ready to be the best you can be and not to sabotage yourself in any way?
5) Are you willing to be different and take the action that is necessary?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any (or all) of the questions, then YES, coaching is for you!
Your key to success and your achievements is dependent on how committed you are to KNOW all that you want to know, DO what is required in order to achieve your goal, and BE responsible in steering your life towards the goals you have set out to achieve.
I work with individuals who have a habit of using their ‘thinking’ to guide their life, rather than their ‘knowing’. Individuals who want to live the life they have always dreamed of living, with no barriers or boundaries; a life rich with success and achievement, endless physical vitality, heartfelt personal relationships, and a deep sense of spiritual fulfillment. I’ve also worked with those who’ve mistaken themselves for their ego in all sorts of ways! And there have been many who are driven by old beliefs, habits or even conditioning that are creating the same undesirable results over and over. If you are searching for focus, inner-clarity, structure and balance in your life, then coaching with me will help you to channel these elusive qualities into something more tangible – a life that feels more authentic, balanced and whole.
Coaching is for you, because you are an INDIVIDUAL who is :
- Open and ready to change - you realize what you are doing now isn’t working, and are open minded about doing something different. You really want to get over this situation. You know that your life is ready for a reinvention and you want to be the one reinventing it.
- Highly motivated – you desire a real change in your life and are willing to put forth the effort to make it happen.
- Dedicated to finding your own path – your life is unique, your needs are unique and you are open to exploring the new you.
- Imaginative - you have an idea or desire for something different. And you hear the inner voices that limit you and keep you stuck; and you want to replace those limiting beliefs with an "I can do it" (confident) attitude.
- Willing to look for what is hidden – believe it or not, it is our unconscious that rules the day. You are now ready to become aware of what is hidden and respond by choice after seeing things in a whole new way.
- Wanting your ‘mojo’ back - you had it once, however some of life’s overwhelming and challenging situations have taken over or got in the way. And now you want to be back in control!
- Life long learner - or at least want to be and are excited by how new knowledge and perspectives can help you grow. You are open to discovering approaches and even goals that you haven’t thought of before.
Coaching isn’t just for adults, it is also a great way forward for CHILDREN & TEENAGERS. Its claimed by many child psychologists that between the ages of 3 years and 11 years is an ‘imprint period’. This means that childhood experiences between these ages are likely to have an impact on who that child becomes, how they feel, behave and represent themselves to the world in later life. I believe this is why it is extremely important that a child is given the opportunity to understand their feelings and emotions. Failure to do so, could lead to that child growing up and feeling unable to ever achieve their full potential.
I coach PARENTS who are willing to adopt great parenting tools. Being a parent is by far one of the most challenging and rewarding jobs on the planet! Unfortunately with this particular job there is no training manual, there is limited feedback on your performance, and no right or wrong way of doing things. It can also be difficult to find support and many parents experience the feeling of not doing a good enough job if they have to ask for advice from a professional.
During my coaching experience with parents, we’ve dealt with common problems such as arguing, stale mate (not talking to each other) and stone walling (saying bad things about each other). There is no right way of being a parent, but there are steps that you can take if your family relationships are not working out as well as they could be. Or perhaps you just want to be prepared for the challenging teenage years to come!
So if you are a parent, then coaching can:
- help you to become the kind of parent you wish you could be.
- enable you to relate to your children in ways that feel good for you and for them.
- provide you with strategies for dealing with the challenges that all parents face.
- help to improve and strengthen family relationships.

As your coach, you may be interested in the experiences contributing to who I am today. Some of the below is relevant, and some may serve as trivia. In either case, I invite you closer into my world.
Born in India and being raised in various different countries from the age of five, I’ve lived a life filled with challenges, adventure and independence. After finally settling down in UK at the age of thirteen and graduating with a Business Studies degree, I spent 13 years in various marketing roles in the IT industry. Then a few years ago, the time came to realign myself to live my dreams. I had dreamt of a career that involved helping others in some practical way, and at many occasions had been told that I would make an excellent counselor. However, I shied away from counseling as I felt it focused too much on the problems and the whys, rather than the solutions and what’s next.
I ventured upon my journey of self-discovery during which I realized my most innate desires resurfacing and these steered me to consider a potential change of career. Once again, I researched the field of psychology and came across NLP. I felt a magnetic pull to this study and so trusted my instincts and joined International Teaching Seminars, where I was trained as an NLP Master Practitioner and NLP Coach, by the likes of Ian McDermott, Robert Dilts, Suzi Smith & Jan Elfine. This was the major turning point in my journey.
