“Whether you think that you can, or think that you can’t, you are probably right.”
Henry Ford
“Thank you again Abi for being a part of our Skills Bootcamp team to make our offer a great success!“
Felicity Carghill, Business Development Manager, UWE, Bristol
“Abi helped me to explore my career options; identify areas I was satisfied with and areas and I wished to change. It was helpful to do this in a space where I felt comfortable and able to focus. Being really listened to is surprisingly powerful.”
Vanessa Doust, Hanham, Bristol
“Abi was really helpful at a time when I was feeling totally lost about my future career direction. She was kind, thoughtful, positive, flexible and understanding of me and my situation. The coaching sessions have given me lots more clarity and have helped me to think differently about my return to work.”
Liz Stephens Burt, Knowle, Bristol
Drifting? Stressed? Struggling to stay motivated? Lacking focus? Working long hours? Unfulfilled? Wanting to be more effective?
Do you want to move forward or make a change in your working life?
If the answer is yes then career coaching can help you to be more effective and identify where and how you can make the changes you want to enable yourself to feel successful and engaged in your working life. In your coaching sessions with me, you can talk openly and honestly, thoughts can unravel and you can find clarity, You are able to identify your goals and explore ways to empower yourself to achieve them which can be transformational. Career coaching in Bristol or beyond can happen in person or remotely with me. Knowing you have a personal coach to check in with regularly can help with accountability and staying focussed on your goals.
I also work successfully in partnership with employers in Bristol such as UWE and Missing Link to deliver career coaching and mentoring.

Career Coaching in Bristol and Bath can take place face to face, as part of a walk and talk session or remotely if you prefer. If you are further a field, we can connect online via Zoom or phone calls. I use a variety of coaching tools and methods to empower you to make the changes you want. This can include motivational and solution focussed approaches as well as a mixture of coaching and mentoring to get you where you’d like to be. Limiting beliefs which may have held you back before can be identified and challenged. What could you do if you believed something else?
