Find a Life Coach in South Croydon

Hello and welcome! If life is feeling like an effort, if you don't feel good in your own skin, if you've lost your way and you need a guiding hand to help bring you back to life - your life - then let's talk. My coaching is for the woman who knows it is time to make a change but needs someone to talk it through with, to support her, someone with considerable experience to help her make the decisions and take the next steps. When is this useful? for example... During relationship challenges; When thinking of a career change or promotion; When considering setting up in business; When empty nesting hits, hard; If you are struggling with weight and/or self image; When everything is overwhelming; And if you are feeling lost, confused and lonely. Often I help clients avoid going into major stress, breakdown or burnout and turn things around so they can live a joyful life with meaning and purpose.My mission is to inspire women to shine their light. Usually when my clients come to me joy is far from how they feel... confused, frustrated, sad, desperate for change - this tends to be where they start, and we get that transformed! For nearly two decades I have been a life coach, working with women around the globe, having trained with some of the top names in the world. Clearly there are a lot of life coaches "out there" but I know when I needed help myself I went to someone who had a lot of experience and that paid dividends. I have an empathetic approach and practice "tough love" when necessary, gently keeping my clients on track so they get the results they truly want - and in fact, very often, helping them to even work out what the results ARE that they want. I'm an exceptionally good listener and at essence what most of us want is to be heard, and to be seen...really heard and seen...for who we are. I have clients around the globe - from the USA, the Middle East, Europe and Australia as well as from the UK. In addition to coaching - individually and in groups, both on my own and with a partner, I also arrange Exquisite Journeys - intimate trips exclusively for women - and have a women's community Ellev8. I've also shared my LinkedIn Profile. https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenkennaby/ Just a handful of a huge number of testimonials: Being at a complete crossroads both personally and professionally, I realised I needed a mentor to help me ‘figure out’ what I really want out of life. I’m always the one holding it together for others and thought it’s about time I asked for help for myself – not an easy thing to do. Four months later I’m moving forward in every aspect of my life, every day. Karen helped me to focus, de-clutter, face facts and really dig deep and figure out what I want, for myself. She’s an amazing woman who I occasionally described as ‘scary’ because she often knew me better than I knew myself! Thank you for being a guiding light. Being quite a guarded person I was unsure how much i would get out of our session because I don’t like being vulnerable in front of people. However Karen has a way of making you feel so free and comfortable that you have no problem sharing anything. The session allowed me to express myself in a ways that I didn’t think I was capable of and with that came a huge release of tension and so many revelations that even surprised me. I would recommend Karen to anyone. Looking forward to more. It was my birthday yesterday so its been one year since we met and you transformed my life! I just wanted to say thank you. For everything. I really can’t put into words my gratitude for all that you have done for me these past 5 months. You have taught me to love myself, not how I think I should be or how someone else thinks I should be but exactly the way I am. This was not an easy task…. but you did it. Although the speed of my life and the mountain of my commitments only seems to increase and grow, with your tools I am able to handle it with more grace and patience than I ever thought possible. You have become a symbol of comfort and centering for me. When I see your Daily Kiss or receive an e-mail it just makes me smile and reminds me that everything will be ok. When I see your name it reminds me of all that I have become and all that I am yet to be and that my potential is truly limitless. I realize my journey is different than everyone else’s but I am okay with that. Rome was not built in a day and neither am i. I have faith that I will finish strong and never go back! I have come to far, wanted this for to long and feel to amazing to fail. I had no idea what this journey would entail when we started and that was a new for me. Thank you Karen for teaching me to love myself more than I ever thought possible. A gift I can never repay you for. Love Always, Karen is an extremely inspirational lady. Not only caring, non judgemental and honest but extremely knowledgeable. In the brief time I’ve known Karen I have been suitably impressed, I would have no hesitation recommending her to friends and family or even my client base. You just have to look at Karen to feel inspired, this lady has an infectious personality and thinking about her makes me feel more positive. Get in touch, you won't regret it!! Karen is the most inspiring and loving person I know. She is so positive and sees the possibilities for me when I can’t see them myself. She has encouraged me to always speak in the positive, finding solutions to difficult problems in life. She encourages me to not ignore the difficulties but lovingly supports me to find positive solutions. She is a fun energetic woman that inspires me and leads me when I lose my way. Life presents opportunities for growth and Karen can see the solutions that are conceived out of a loving caring place. She has added an element of fun to my life and I smile when I think of her. Is it YOUR TURN? I'd love to connect with you and talk about how I can help you in this next phase of your life. PS wondering about the pictures of an ostrich with it's head in the sand and the hummingbird coming out of the cage? Wonderful metaphors...it's time to take your head out of the sand and admit you need help and well done for reaching out on this site and therefore doing that. I will help you learn to savour, appreciate and enjoy life again - like a joyously free hummingbird!
