What others are saying about working with Leah.

 

Before coaching I felt confused, lost and scared, I was distant in my relationships and just wanted to give up on it and run away and save myself from hurt. I was feeling angry, unworthy and not good enough. I was bringing myself down and others along with me. I was sceptical, unsure and nervous about coaching, but I put my fears aside and put my trust in Leah. During my coaching journey, I found where the negativity was coming from, and I was able to accept it and release it. I realised that I was OK in all I felt and there was nothing wrong with me because of it. I accepted that there was no self-blame, no guilt to be carried. The coaching was confronting for sure. To dig underneath the layers of my feelings was scary at times but ever so worth it. By the end of my coaching journey, I felt light, I felt relief, confidence and excited. The shift in my emotions was just beautiful to feel. Coaching was different from my usual go to i.e. counsellors, psychologists as I didn’t have to dredge up past stories. I didn’t have to explain anything. We just went in with how I was feeling in the moment and focused on that. Leah has a lovely tone, a gentle approach which made me feel safe and at ease to let go. She provided a safe space for me to feel vulnerable, honest and to get real. She made it easy to trust the process. If you feel you are struggling with negative emotions, I recommend coaching with Leah or doing any of her courses, it will change your perspective and might just save that relationship you are wanting to give up on. Or more importantly, it just might help you become a better version of yourself. Wishing you all the best. Jo – “Feel the Fear and do it anyway”
