My sessions with Laura have been incredibly valuable in improving my confidence in the workplace and helping me to realise my career ambitions. I have learnt to put a totally different spin on my approach to people and projects in the workplace, and now place a much higher value on the skills and characteristics that I have.
Laura helped me to identify the barriers to my more confident self and helped me realise that I didn’t need to be someone else to achieve my goals. More than that, she helped me to identify goals I didn’t know I had, and understand why they are important and worth holding onto.
I’ve no doubt the sessions have been a major part of achieving the next steps in my career.
They also helped me to reflect on how I approach things outside of work too, and have definitely shone a more positive lights on the frustrations I have dealt with through lockdown. Thanks Laura x

Laura today's session was unbelievable. I think I'll look back and know today was life changing. Thank you for that gift!
I honestly believe that things happen for a reason and at my lowest point when I knew I needed help you were recommended to me. I felt we connected instantly even over the phone with your massive amount of knowledge and real relatable empathy.
From the moment I met you I found you to be quite mystical, if that makes sense and your ability to quickly analyse and surface historical issues that I've been carrying is a true gift. I honestly haven't stopped telling people about how beneficial I've found our sessions so far. I feel comfortable and able to be completely honest with you. I can't thank you enough for helping me so much.
I already feel so much lighter and able to relax without the constant self-doubt. I am not sure how but I feel a weight has lifted all ready. Thank you for everything.

It is easy to fall into the feeling of “nobody understands” and “I’m so alone in this”.
I reached out to Laura in such a time of despair, and with her patient support and guidance, I have come to realise that I have the tools within to conquer the internal battle of hopelessness.
Having being introduced to coping strategies and techniques that can be carried out discreetly, I can now manage those overwhelming moments.
My perception on (usually anxiety driven) situations, are now addressed with self confidence, calm and realistic response.
Laura has the gift of prompting people to find the realistic answers within, avoiding the usual tactic of overthinking and self destructive thoughts.
This has in turn positively affected my relationships with my family, colleagues and loved ones.
I can honestly say meeting Laura has been life changing, and I am eternally grateful for her presence throughout my journey to self actualisation and appreciation for life.

I have been working with Laura since September 2020. I had been going through a tough time at work and was given feedback that I needed to smoothen my prickly edges when dealing with my team and others!
I spoke to Laura about my concerns and she explained that she could help. We started off with a session every week and I would talk through everything that had been going on and how it made me feel. We worked on my positivity and how I can adapt situations, so I get the best out of them for me and my staff. 4 months on a new opportunity arose and I left my job on a high with an offer to return anytime.
The positive feedback I have received from my colleagues and Laura in regard to how my stressors have reduced even going into a new career have been so positive and my edges are definitely smoothing out. Laura has been extremely supportive, and I can see how the change has happened in such a short time.
I would 100% recommend sessions with Laura to help in building confidence and reducing those stressors.
Thank you.

I wanted a coach to help me break down the barriers stopping me being my best. I feel good after doing each session which spurs me on to do the next!
The sessions helped me realise how many of my slightly self—destructive behaviours aren’t just ‘who I am’ and can be unlearned, that I can appreciate them but choose not to do them.
I personally find the sessions quite tiring but very rewarding and useful. I’m able to apply learnings in small ways day to day and look forward to this all coming together.
I think more people should do coaching like this. I’ve been amazed at how many lessons apply to both professional and personal relationships.
The sessions make me feel more robust and ready to take on life’s challenges!

Laura has been working with me to overcome some issues which I feel were starting to take hold of my life. I knew I didn’t want to spiral and after seeing Laura’s Instagram and Facebook posts I knew instantly that she was the right coach for me. The content she posts really resonated with me and I felt each post was personally written for me.
Since starting the sessions she has opened up a lot of boxes which I locked in my head. The sessions have been emotional, tears have occurred but also a sense of relief when I feel like I am finding the answers and becoming who I want to be.
The language she uses to communicate with me is simple, the questions are thought provoking and although sometimes it’s pushed my boundaries and tested my need to answer politely (people pleaser) Laura has picked up on my body language and challenged me to answer what is really on my mind.
I am accepting that the career choice I made in my twenties is no longer the career I want to lead in my thirties and priorities have changed.
I look forward to our weekly appointment and I can’t wait to embrace the changes which I am already making to get on the path to living my life for me and my family.
I am so grateful to be working with Laura.

I've now had 6 sessions with Laura and I’ve noticed a massive difference in my confidence, not just my self confidence but confidence in my decisions, actions and general outlook.
Through guidance and asking the right questions at the right times Laura has given me the tools to look ahead with more clarity and feel positive and excited about the future.
Although we still have work to do together the difference in 6 weeks is enormous!

Laura at Ellievate conducted several impressive sessions, which have been invaluable & have equipped me with certain ‘tools’ to manage day to day life in a much calmer manner.
The sessions that Laura provided allowed me to explore various methods of reflecting past experiences & how I react to life at present. The tools I have been shown enable me to focus & manage a situation differently – proving to me that I can be more controlled & this results in a much more positive outcome/response. I have found I draw on these tools daily, and ultimately I am achieving my goals, as I have allowed myself time to physically think about my aspirations & how I can obtain them – thank you Laura, your passion, professionalism & dedication to each session has allowed me to grow as an individual.
Your positive approach & encouraging words truly come from the heart.

I’d been feeling overwhelmed during lockdown with dealing with competing pressures and I wanted support with my mental well-being. In our sessions I reflected on what contributes to the stress which is me taking everything on myself. Realising I take on too much, I have started to encourage others at home and work to do some tasks themselves and take more responsibility for thinking for themselves.
A key learning for me is to let go of control and delegate tasks at work and at home. Letting other people to do things for themselves, e.g. at work other people arranging meetings, at home my daughter making her own breakfast, remembering herself it’s PE day. The ABC lists was also very helpful and has really helped me to prioritise my time and complete the most urgent and important tasks which reduces stress.
I feel very relaxed in the sessions. I’ve recognised it’s always best for me to do them when I have no distractions so I can give it my full attention and can be honest. You have got to be honest or there’s no point doing it. Laura makes me feel comfortable and doesn’t judge me or make me feel inadequate in any way. The sessions are very professional, I enjoy them, and I’ve found them really helpful and they have made a difference.
A massive thank you for all your support.

Laura is ace at taking me to the exact place I need, not by rescuing, but by kindly putting herself in my shoes to see what I am seeing and the reason of my doings to be able to help me better.
She was kind, friendly and always respecting my personality, sense of humour and map of the world.
She reassured me and made me feel safe reminding me that if I spot it, I have got it and it is a matter of persisting and gently tweaking things around.

Today felt like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
I now understand the reasons and how I will benefit from exploring more, (however uncomfortable). It is amazing to think how one word has been so influential/detrimental to my life so far. Fascinating.
Thank you again for your time and patience.
