I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with Sam and have thoroughly enjoyed the coaching sessions. Before starting with her, I was having issues recognising which direction to take for advancing my business venture. I had a lot of ideas but was stuck in one place, whilst trying to get moving with my coaching practice. I was feeling frustrated and lost because I knew what I needed to do, but would procrastinate on even the simplest of tasks and then when I did get moving with something, I would really have to ‘drag’ myself to do it. I decided to get support from Sam, as I was bored with my own excuses. This pushed me to become answerable to myself.
I have been able to see great results from working with her. I started off with a small goal, which was just to get started with taking my coaching seriously and Sam helped me to think bigger, recognise my Strengths, and helped me to push myself out of my
comfort zone. This has resulted in a mission statement, a business plan, and the motivation and reignited discipline required to take my life to the next level. Due to this, I am now thinking of my business as a whole, as opposed to just one element of it. This includes considering how to approach my target audience, and understanding who I need to reach out to. I’m also thinking of contacting organisations and different ways to fulfill my mission.
She has helped me to realise my strengths and clarify my goals. I started off with quite a nearsighted vision of what I wanted to work towards and within our first session she was able to help me to realise and accept that I wanted more. I have left with goals that I am both afraid and excited about, because they are big and aligned with my mission statement. Sam also really helped me to think more honestly about my journey and use my already acquired skills to invalidate the limitations I had placed upon myself. I have had a reset with her and with be forever grateful
The value Sam’s Coaching has resulted in is I have stopped doubting myself and my abilities. She has really helped me to recognise and ground myself in my Strengths, enabling me to look at areas that I am strong in, yet not so easily pulled towards. I understand what my Strengths are and will lean into them more and also dedicate time to develop other areas as well. I am still working on stopping rushing ahead and trying to get everything done at once, understanding the importance planning can bring to my business. Some of the long-term outcomes and results is that I now have a plan for the next 5-10 years for my business and Sam has helped me to set a strong foundation to make sure it is a lasting evergreen venture.
These sessions came at a great time for me and I always looked forward to them. I will keep in mind Sam’s reflections on what I had shared, to keep me going now the coaching has come to an end. I feel a lot more self-assured and confident in why I am doing what I am doing and that helps with my desire to show up authentically and create the life I want… unapologetically. I will keep Sam in mind and recommend her 100%.
