What is coaching?

‘Coaching is unlocking people’s potential to maximise their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them.’

John Whitmore

Coaching isn’t based on telling, instruction or direction, it isn’t mentoring or counselling. Instead coaching is a future-focused tool that’s used to empower individuals to reach their goals for themselves. 

A coaching session is a structured, collaborative conversation between the coach and the client. Following a coaching model (such as GROW) a coach will ask questions, listen and challenge in a non-judgemental, supportive way that helps you to identify and move forward towards your goals. 

Is it for me? 

  • Do you feel that currently you aren’t reaching your potential?

  • Is there a gap from where you are now to where you want to be?

  • Do you sometimes feel you don’t have the skills, resources or confidence to get something complete?

  • Do you feel stuck and put off making decisions or fail to stick to those decisions you have made?

  • Are you ready to entertain new and fresh ideas?

  • Are you willing to be accountable for what you want to achieve?

If you answer yes to any of these questions then coaching can support you to reach your goals.

Coaching with me

I love to coach outdoors, as there’s additional psychological benefits to being in natural surroundings, but I’m also happy to coach online or in alternative in-person settings.

Client testimony

I found my session with Hannah incredibly helpful. She has a relaxed and comfortable manner, which allowed me to refocus on my goals, especially since they had evolved since our first session. Many of the actions we discussed previously had already been implemented, enabling me to make significant progress.

Hannah gave me the freedom to explore my thoughts and change my direction as needed. The session flowed naturally, yet she consistently brought me back to the main points of focus. By the end, I had a clear understanding of the objectives I wanted to pursue, and my commitment level was at a 10.
