What do you love about coaching?
As a coach, my love for this profession is deeply rooted in my desire to explore uncharted territories and create meaningful connections. I see it as a true privilege to become that supportive character in my client’s stories, help them along their journey.
I love the collaboration coaching brings, where you are not alone in exploring new perspectives, ideas, possibilities and failures. I am always willing to venture outside of my comfort zone and help clients to do the same.
The beauty of coaching is the deep connection it creates, even from a distance, whether or not you meet virtually or face2face. I believe that this connection is essential for building trust, fostering open communication, and creating a safe space that allows humour, honesty but also a sharing of fears, aspirations and dreams.
How do you unwind?
Rather than unwinding by doing less, I consider doing more of what you like helps build resilience and relieves stress much more effectively. This belief has let me take on many impromptu plans and spontaneous nights! Going from trying on the craziest gym classes (trampoline gymnastics??) to meeting friends for nights of laughter, deep conversations or meeting strangers at networking events. My more “organised” fun includes travels to cities around the world or going on hiking adventures. Finally, my family always knows how to uplift me when things get tough and they play an important role in my life.
What inspired you to work with CTG?
I’ve worked alongside Brad as a client, which made me experience the passion, purpose and dedication CTG Group brings from the clients perspective. Brad and other coaches working with CTG Group have been instrumental to my own coaching journey by attending the coaching programmes or being coached myself on numerous occasions.
Joining CTG Group was thus a ‘no brainer’ since the values and style align very much with my own.
