TESTIMONIALS
“Investing in Rachel's Career Change Coaching has been the best decision I've ever made…”
Supported both the inner work & practical steps
“Working with Rachel came at a time when I was feeling unsure about my direction in medicine and questioning what I really wanted. I was craving more adventure, travel, balance and - honestly - to actually enjoy my job.
Our sessions helped me go back to basics - reconnecting with the day-to-day aspects of work that I genuinely liked, and gradually detaching my identity from being just a doctor. Even though it was uncomfortable at times, Rachel created a safe space to think widely, explore new possibilities, and experiment.
I did a shift project, followed a long-held dream, and took a ski doctor job in the South Island of New Zealand. That bold step led me to a job I love, and since then, I’ve even been featured on a TV show watched by over two million people. Most importantly, I feel excited about my future in a way I hadn’t in a long time.
Rachel offered a fresh perspective, challenged my assumptions, and supported both the inner work and practical steps I needed. I'd recommend working with her to anyone who’s at a crossroads - especially if you're looking to find more meaning, joy, and authenticity in your career.

About Rachel
“Thank you so much for your support and help over the last year through the coaching process. I feel like I really benefitted from the conversations and exercises we did together and have seen some personal development and growth as a result of it…….. including seeing my own self worth more.
I particularly found the exercises of trying to list all my dream jobs and the job spectra very insightful and helpful. The most interesting takeaway for me was the difference between professional strengths and favourite skills, as well as my split between my thinking and feeling side.
I really appreciated your flexibility... and for taking an open minded approach towards coaching. I felt like you found a very good balance between getting me to open up around my feelings and seeing and respecting my boundaries.
I found it very reassuring that you shared small snippets from your own journey ... making you very relatable. I would wholeheartedly recommend you.”

Coaching is the best strategy
"Jo's coaching has been amazing - my self awareness and self reflection skills have improved significantly following the coaching process. I have had many interventions to support me over the years, but this coaching is by far the best strategy I have had the opportunity to access and I hope to be back for more."

Invaluable support
“Investing in Rachel's Career Change package has been the best decision I've ever made… because of Rachel's invaluable support, I am following a dream of mine to pursue a creative career as a personal stylist. I wouldn't have imagined doing this prior to working with Rachel, as it seems worlds away from my current role as a lawyer. For the first time, I feel optimistic and excited about my future career path and that is all thanks to Rachel. I couldn't recommend her more.”

So much more than just looking at careers
“Working with Rachel has been truly transformational. Her process involved so much more than just looking at careers; it was a journey of self-discovery in which she unpicked a series of tangles of self-perception, self-confidence and people-pleasing along the way. Rachel worked entirely at my pace (which with 2 small children was not very fast) and was completely non-judgmental. I came away from every session feeling positive and excited for the future due to opportunities she unlocked and felt that we explored every avenue comprehensively. Rachel has a strong can-do attitude which was infectious and she was both incredibly supportive of my fears (owing to a complete career turnaround) and extremely diligent in her research of various options. I am still on a career break whilst caring for my children but I know exactly what to do when I am ready and feel both relaxed and excited about what I'm moving on to next. I will undoubtedly be checking back in with Rachel along the way for an extra dose of inspiration/motivation/innovation/action!”

Identifying Strengths
“Working with Rachel has been key in helping me successfully navigate my career change. In less than six months, I have moved from being a City solicitor (a career that I had for almost ten years and was feeling stuck in) to a new in-house role. I also have a tangible plan for how to build my entrepreneurial interests alongside this. Rachel was wonderful at helping me to identify my strengths and in guiding me on how to create the working life that I had thought was out of reach. I am now very much ‘unstuck’ and feeling excited about the future!”

Developed my self-awareness
“Rachel is a kind, caring and empathetic coach. Her structured approach massively developed my self awareness and enabled me to understand the root causes of my dissatisfaction at work, which I had struggled to accurately identify alone. She provides a safe space to talk through the challenges you’re facing, whilst also bringing an excellent understanding of psychology, mindset and the jobs market. Rachel has helped me think with greater clarity, questioned and challenged my inhibiting beliefs, improved my self confidence and given me optimism for the future. For anyone considering a career change, or reflecting on whether their current role is right for them, I’d fully recommend Rachel.”

Huge change
Working with Larissa has been a journey of growth and self-discovery. Larissa's compassion, empathy and good sense of humour make her so easy to talk to and trust. Larissa has created a safe space where I feel truly listened to, valued, and understood.
Larissa enabled me to focus and reflect deeply about the reality of changing my situation and to think about 'me' and what I wanted from life and my future. I would readily recommend Larissa to friends, family, and colleagues, who have all noticed the change in me.
Thanks feels like such a small word for such a huge change but 'thank you' so much Larissa!”

Discover a more fulfilling career
“Rachel has been a wonderful coach to work with. I did the career coaching package in order to discover new options and pathways for a more fulfilling career and left with my identified goals and more. She helped me get to know myself better, creating well-constructed exercises to identify unrealised strengths and blockers, driving me forwards in a positive and supportive manner. Rachel is a lovely person to work with, very kind and knowledgeable and I found the sessions enjoyable, the right amount of challenging, and motivational. Would highly recommend!”

Transform my life
“I've worked with Rachel since 2024, and she's helped me to completely transform my life. From our first conversation, she genuinely listened and helped me rebuild the confidence I'd lost after eight years as a stay-at-home mum. Through our sessions, I discovered my true passion, and am now actively pursuing my dream job. Although I'm still only at the beginning of my career-change journey, I know I can rely on Rachel's guidance and expertise to help unlock my full potential. Investing in yourself is one of the best decisions you can make - it could truly change your life.”

Helped me change direction
“I was looking for a new direction professionally, and had contacted a couple of other potential coaches before I found Rachel’s website. We arranged an call and she immediately made me feel relaxed and optimistic about the process. Rachel excels in empathy, motivation and organisation; she was always willing to do additional research or look at things from a different perspective as was needed, but made sure I remained focused on what mattered to me. Whilst I didn’t find the course easy, it was very illuminating and ultimately helped me change direction and find what I really wanted to be doing.”
