Before I started coaching, I was feeling completely lost. I didn’t know where to begin with my job search or how to create a CV that truly reflected my experience and potential. Working with Kelly changed everything. From the very first session, I felt truly heard and understood. She offered clear, supportive guidance and helped me focus on the skills I already had - showing me how they could be transferred into a new exciting career path. Since our sessions, my confidence has grown immensely. Kelly helped me rebuild my self-esteem and, more importantly, my belief in myself. I would absolutely recommend her coaching to other educators. It’s not just about the practical support in finding a new role - it’s also about navigating the emotional ups and downs that come with a career transition. Kelly supports the whole person, and that makes all the difference.

I found that talking through my barriers to getting a new job with a real person was the most useful. I have tried google searches and asking AI for help writing applications in the past and searching for new roles, however I found myself becoming frustrated by the lack of jobs (and even jobs that did not exist!). When I did find jobs, my applications were unsuccessful and I felt like a failure as I did not know why. My online sessions with Kelly filled me with confidence. From the first introductory session, I started to realise that it was not me that was experiencing failure, it was the techniques that I was using. Everything was broken down step by step and I was able to quickly start to make progress. Although reviewing CVs and application forms started to land me some interviews, the real game changer for me was learning about the hidden job market. Kelly worked with me through what this was and how to actually reach out to the right people, asking the right questions. This is what ultimately helped me secure my job outside of teaching (and a pay increase!). For anyone stuck or unsure of 'how to escape the classroom' I highly recommend the investment.

I just wanted to give a quick update following our sessions. After leaving my job, I am now contracting and it is my first day. Our sessions really helped me to gain the confidence that I needed to take step. Deciding that what I was doing was not where I wanted to be. So I really want to say thank you.

I had been using Google and AI to help write applications, but I kept feeling frustrated by the lack of roles or by applications that went nowhere. I felt like a failure but didn’t know what I was doing wrong. My online sessions with Kelly filled me with confidence. From the very first session, I realised it wasn’t me that was the problem — it was the techniques I was using. Kelly helped me understand the process, build a stronger strategy, and work through each step with clarity and confidence. Everything changed after that.

Working with Kelly helped me see my strengths clearly. For the first time in years, I felt able to imagine a career that fit who I am and the life I want. I now have a job that finally aligns with my values and wellbeing.

A little while after we finished sessions, I decided to resign and today was my first day contracting. Your session helped me get some confidence back and decide that what I was doing was not where I wanted to be. Thank you.

I couldn’t have done this without you.

Kelly is an outstanding career coach. She blends empathy, insight and accountability in a way that helps people gain clarity, confidence and forward momentum. She not only helps clients find the right next step she helps them believe they can take it. A true asset to any team.
