There are too many of us who decide to live disappointed rather than risk feeling disappointed. We become cynical and numb, and call it wisdom. We take the 'safe' route. We lower our expectations without ever fully expressing them. But leaning into the good things—𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀—takes deep courage and vulnerability. It takes a lot of courage to show up and be all in when we can't control the outcome. We need to be willing to lean in to uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure. The alternative?  𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲. And we don't want that, because 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲—and life is a gift, even when it doesn’t seem like it at times. 𝗠𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂: Remember to unwrap this gift with courage, curiosity, and gratitude, no matter what phase you are in.❤️💪 Working with me—whether through 1:1 bespoke coaching or my fall 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝘀 & 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 program 🍂—offers a chance to do just that. It’s an opportunity to step back, reflect, and recalibrate, so you can re-engage with your life and goals with fresh energy and clear intention.

Q: How can a client approach their coaching dynamic with practical expectations and get the most from their experience working with you? “When clients can be vulnerable with themselves and me, then transformation comes easily and naturally. Life can become effortless. Experiences are more fulfilling. They become content. Success is no longer about getting somewhere. It’s about the journey. Being in and of the experience itself." - Karen bTrue Values to tap into: Vulnerability: True transformation begins with the courage to be vulnerable—opening up to yourself and the process. 💪 Courage: It takes courage to confront limiting mindsets and to trust the path towards effortless living and fulfilling experiences. 🛤️ Book your free discovery session today ⬇️  https://lnkd.in/e4R9QXDU #btruevaluesassessment #leadershipcoaching

When my client came to me, she was brimming with self confidence and optimism, eager to make her mark and succeed. However, she soon encountered a challenging boardroom environment that sought to control and undermine her. Her confidence and self belief were gradually eroded by constant criticism and disrespect, leaving her feeling trapped and powerless. Through our ten coaching sessions together, I focused on: ➪ Helping her rediscover her inner strength and confidence ➪ Listening to her experiences, understanding what truly mattered to her and identifying what she needed to reignite her sense of self belief ➪ Guiding her to see the choices and options available to her, rather than telling her what to do Together, we worked on recognising her strengths and understanding that she didn't have to endure the negativity...unless she chose to! My goal was to bolster her confidence and provide unwavering support, even sending encouraging messages on critical days when she faced tough challenges. The transformation was incredible ✨ Watching her reclaim her life and strength was so rewarding! If you're feeling stuck or undervalued in your professional journey, please know that you have options.

A fresh perspective can change everything. We all have blind spots. The habits we don’t see, the excuses we don’t catch, and the patterns we’re too close to break. Sometimes, what keeps us stuck isn’t a lack of effort—it’s the lack of someone who can spot the gap and guide us forward. That’s where coaching comes in. It’s not just about giving you a plan; it’s about seeing what you can’t see and helping you push past what you thought was possible. And accountability? That’s the secret sauce. It’s what turns good intentions into consistent actions. The quiet nudge when motivation fades, the reminder that your goals are worth it, and the encouragement to level up when you feel like settling. When you pair the right coach with accountability, your results stop being ‘okay’ and start becoming incredible. It’s not magic—it’s showing up, doing the work, and having someone in your corner who refuses to let you sell yourself short. If you’re ready to take your results from average to incredible, let’s chat. My coaching is built around structure, support, and strategies that last.

Do you see your own value? Do you look to others for approval? Does a member of your team underplay their strengths? Here's what I say to people feeling this way: 🔸 You have your own unique value…. ….that special something that you add to your working environment. 🔸 You are good enough as you are, right now. The big insight on this: many people feel this way. Whether you’re a Senior Leader in an organization, a skilled professional or a small business owner, this can be an issue. But you *can* change it. Here are some questions to think about: ❔ How much do you truly recognise about yourself and your strengths? ❔ In looking for signs of ‘not enough’, what signs of ‘enough’ are you missing? ❔ How are the saboteurs of your mind getting in the way of your own self-acceptance? You can build your own self-approval. You have the power to honour yourself and who you are, just as you are. Find out more in my blog here: https://lnkd.in/eRqYGa-y Sometimes it doesn’t feel very easy to change these things by ourselves. That’s when coaching can help. If you feel stuck, just message me and I'll help you move forward

Think of your values as your personal compass, guiding you towards choices and actions that resonate with your true self. Here's how to tune in and align: 1️⃣ Reflect on Peak Moments: Think about when you've felt most alive and fulfilled. What were you doing? Who were you with? These moments are clues to your core values. 2️⃣ Values Inventory: List out your values. Don't overthink it – jot down what immediately comes to mind. Then, rank them in order of importance to you right now. 3️⃣ Assess Your Current Alignment: Look at your daily life and choices. Where do you see your top values reflected? Where are they missing? 4️⃣ Set Intentions: Choose one area to bring more top value. Start small with actionable steps that can lead to big shifts. 5️⃣ Check-In Regularly: Values can evolve, just like you. Revisit and reassess every few months.
