Client Stories and Resources

"The biggest issue I had was procrastination. I'd have lists of things to do that stayed on my pad not just for days, but for weeks."

I just felt as though I had someone that I was accountable to. I felt like Saskia was sitting on my shoulder at work, and she gave me the skills immediately to get over the procrastination. From the very first contact I felt empowered, invigorated, almost excited about the work that I'd been...

"Meeting a whole lot of women from different businesses, industries, outlooks and finding so many things that we shared in common has been pretty amazing."

I felt like, 'how am I going to open up in front of all of these women I don't know'? But that was the thing that actually I found the best. We'd be talking about the same issues, the same thoughts, and it would be like, 'I can't believe I'm hearing this from other women, I thought it was just...

"I felt like I had a lack of confidence and focus in my business professional life"

I have just had the pleasure of completing a 6-month coaching programme with Saskia and wish to share my impressions of, and sincere appreciation for Saskia’s coaching skills and her involvement in a huge step forward in my life.

Amongst a number of goals I set early in the process, the...

Taking my business to the next level

I enrolled with Saskia primarily for business coaching but was surprised how accurate her title of life coach proved to be.

I wanted to push my career ahead and wanted Saskia to help me with goal setting and with managing my time. I was feeling under pressure as I also have two pre-schoolers and...

Getting off the 'Busy' Treadmill

This blog post is about the quest for slow. It’s borne out of my own desire to stop, slow down a bit, and get off the treadmill of being continually busy. I hope that my discoveries also benefit you, and together we can learn to give up the habit of being constantly busy, slow down a...

Career Confidence

I was enjoying my new job but knew it would take time to learn all the requirements of my role. I now have the confidence to know I can do this really well and that the job’s importance is not necessarily reflected in the position in which it sits in the company.
