Testimonials
“I started coaching with Annabell around 9 months after I’d launched my first business. At the time, I was being pulled in a million different directions and getting nowhere fast.
After several months working together, I was able to get crystal clear on who we were as a business, who I was as a person, and how the two could align to achieve the best results for all involved. I gained so much more focus & clarity, both personally and professionally, and she was always there to call me out and give me a gentle kick back in the right direction if I tried to make any excuses (which I frequently did).
If, like me, you’re someone who prefers actionable, fluff-free advice that will have a tangible impact on your life, and you’re ready to truly be held accountable and make a change, then there’s nobody I would recommend more highly than Annabell.”

“Annabell’s coaching has been a breath of fresh air and here are the reasons why:
1. She listened and helped me to identify a number of crucial areas which were in need of development to move the business forward
2. I connected well with Annabell which allowed me to be honest with my answers and I could be truly me and develop my thinking and strategy for the business.
3. Annabell made me think (a lot) which has really helped me to understand my philosophy and values. This came from challenging questions and excellent coaching dialogue.
The impact of this has been inspiring to me on a personal level, but it enabled me to make changes within the team. This has included reviewing the strengths of the team and empowering them to take on responsibility but also supported me to improve my relationships with the staff. Overall the coaching has led to improving the efficiency of how the business operates. It has also led to me utilising the team to identify issues and solutions to continually develop the business. Annabell has been critical in supporting me to develop the strategy and tactics to make this happen.”
