Testimonials
I came to Fay desperately unhappy in my current role but unclear as to what job I wanted. Lacking confidence in my skills and terrified to make the move out of my comfort zone, I felt trapped and helpless. Over a series of structured sessions Fay guided me thorough a range of exercises to clarify where my skills and interests lay. With clarity, confidence and ownership of my career choices restored I have finally made a move to a much much happier place. Fay’s natural warmth, empathy and ability to listen was invaluable to me, as is her on-going support.
Katy Akele, Virtual Business ManagerAfter being made redundant, I went to Fay for help rewriting my CV and to improve my interview technique. She gave me a lot of confidence and optimism about my skills, my ability to get my next job and to keep progressing in my career. The re-written CV had an instant impact. After registering it on various job boards, I found myself approached by recruiters asking me to apply for roles that were exactly what I was looking for. The interview coaching helped me make a good impression during the interviews and feel more confident describing my strengths, experience and ambition. I quickly found a new role, working for a great company, with a higher salary and more responsibility than my previous job.
Alex Broadway, Marketing Communications ExecutiveFay is a true diamond in the coaching world. I warmed to her methods of coaching, her engaging style and a passion to get the best out of me. Fay took the time to get to know me, my background and my career history, which gave her a good understanding of my journey. I never knew where the hour went in our sessions, time flew by as we unpacked my career and worked out my next steps. Fay was patient, caring, kind and listened. I knew what I had to do but I felt stuck. Fay enabled me to work through in a comfortable environment and got the best out of me. Since our sessions I have reached out for guidance as I take on a new journey and she has been there for me. I like her honesty and willingness to help.
