Case Studies

“The concept of ‘set a goal and work towards it’ was a new and frightening experience for me..

I had always taken what I had been given in life and consequently was stuck in a 2 year rut at work, de-motivated and with no idea how to change things. Susan encouraged me to set an ultimate goal for myself of changing jobs to work for an established company that values its employees, earning a specified amount of money. Through our weekly telephone coaching sessions I learned how to set weekly goals in accordance with my ultimate goal. There have been times of struggle and times of fear but my weekly goals enabled me to maintain focused and motivated.

The outcome of our work is that I actually achieved my goal 5 weeks ahead of time and not only that my work with Susan has enabled me to become really aware and focused on where my career is heading and an additional benefit is that I have enrolled to study for a business degree.  The coaching sessions which took place over a 12 week period have been invaluable in providing me with direction in my career which had been lacking for a long time.”

"I came to a crossroads in my life…

Working 12 hours a day in a demanding sales role with little personal gain and mounting stress. I asked myself "what is this all about, what am I doing?” Now looking back I realise how unhappy I actually was and how stressed and irritable I had become. Things got so bad that I quit my job and decided to take some time out. I searched on the internet to find someone that could help and came across Susan's company. It seemed real to me and personable, something I could relate to.

Within a week I had met with Susan and decided to embark on 6 months of coaching. Each week we explored different ideas and areas of interest to try and find my passion. Susan's approach was so easy, just like chatting with a friend. We set goals every week and Susan gave me the confidence not only to enjoy taking time off but also to allow myself to explore areas I would never otherwise have considered. I have never been happier. I am doing a degree in nutritional therapy, attending college 2 days per week and working part time.

I am learning again about something I feel passionate about and I am not stressed or tired anymore! It is hard work, but worth every moment. I plan to set up my own business in 3 years once I am qualified, the possibilities are endless! I don't think I could have made such a brave step on my own. Thank you Susan, I feel like I have taken hold of my life and changed it not just for now, but for my future."

“Such a valuable experience…

Working with Susan, both through the Sustainable Wellbeing Workshop and the further additional support via monthly follow up calls has been such a valuable experience. Susan has helped me to make what may seem to some, the smallest of changes that have had hugely impactful changes to my overall wellbeing and day to day life. Although the information we were given was not necessarily new or something I had not heard before, Susan’s ability to present the information in a way which actually made me sit up and take heed,

I saw a friend who I haven’t seen in 6 years on Sunday night, and unprompted, they commented how happy I seemed.

Having spent the last decade being a pretty low, glass half empty kind of person, this is one of the best compliments I could now receive, and I very much hope to continue to be that way. Thank you for kick starting the road to being a ‘glass half full’ person!

The phone sessions that we had ongoing throughout the course of the following three months after the workshop I found to be hugely helpful as it meant we were able to discuss what was/wasn't working from the existing plan, and Susan would advise on alternative options or ways to tailor our wellness plans so that they were more suitable.”
