What our clients say about us…

“Maryane is a phenomenal life coach, and my career would not be taking the shape it is without her. Prior to our coaching sessions I had hit a low-point in my career – struggling to figure out the next steps to drive my career forward, and struggling to derive value from my current role which had grown stagnant. But once I started speaking to Maryane I began to gain much-needed clarity on both of these issues.

Maryane guided my thought process, encouraged me to think out loud and probed further when it was clear I stumbled on something important to me. This led me to figure out my ideal career direction and where I should focus my efforts.

Following our sessions I felt motivated to really take ownership of my career. Pursuing roles which suited my values, skillset and ambitions. I also began to shape my current role to better serve me, and sought areas of personal development which I had realised through our sessions were important to me.

Now I’ve secured a senior role at an organisation I would dream about, and I owe much of that to Maryane’s expert guidance and warm encouragement.”

“Maryane's style of coaching is open and personal. I was given the space to openly speak and talk about my issues with my place in life. She would prompt me with questions directly related to the issues I was having to help me de-tangle the problems and come up with solutions myself.

The aspect of Maryane's coaching that I really like was the homework element. I have done coaching in the past and before, the homework assignment set was ritualistic and non-specific albeit helpful. Maryane's homework assignments felt tailored to my needs and working through the obstacles I felt like I was facing; further demonstrating her listening and absorbing all of what I had said. Instead of completing a simple homework assignment, these pieces of work felt like tangible steps forward to achieving and actualizing my dreams and ideas.

I really liked coaching with Maryane, and it definitely had positive impact on my outlook on life ahead. I was left with tangible actions, and affirmations to live with to help me for the future.”

“I’ve benefited hugely from the coaching sessions I’ve had with Maryane. The sessions gave me the space and focus to prioritise me.

Maryane gave me the tools to identify the barriers preventing me from reaching my goals. I felt I was being heard, especially when Maryane would bring up something I had mentioned in an earlier session. It just shows she was listening to everything I said.

Maryane was never judgmental, and was always solution driven. These sessions have enabled me to put some stringent goals in place with a clear route of how I can reach these.

In this space I was able to be open and honest — it was Maryane who made me feel like this. What I appreciated most is the plethora of solutions she was armed with each session.

Everyone could benefit from Maryane’s coaching sessions. My sense of purpose has revisited me via these sessions, and I came to realise I hold more value than I’ve been able to believe.”

“The resolving conflict workshop was amazing! Whether you're a newbie in marriage or have been married for years it is a very helpful and practical session- we left feeling energised and hopeful for our future and ability to tackle conflict as a team. Mike and Maryane bring different strengths to these sessions”

“Great balance of personal and interactive time with practical tasks which were helpful. It was great having the workbook before hand to familiarise ourselves with the exercises. This allowed us to spend more time reflecting on the questions in the session and effectively utilising Mike and Maryane’s insights”

— L&E (Couple), Art of Communication & Resolving Conflict Workshop


“The workshop was so good! We have really benefited from attending. We loved the practical resources and exercises - game changer! We appreciate the personal touches where Mike and Maryane shared their own experiences. Being more newly married it is always great to hear from others. Mike and Maryane are both incredibly gifted and work together beautifully”

“I thoroughly enjoyed our sessions. Maryane offered a refreshing perspective on how to re-imagine my ambitions and aspirations.

One of the main things I wanted from the coaching sessions was to figure out what it meant to be my authentic self and figure out what would be required for progression in my career. Maryane really challenged me to think about how to build up my whole self now- in the present- rather than compartmentalizing, and deferring for a future date or goalpost that seems to continuously shift.

The practical steps suggested during our sessions, and that I've adopted have really been helpful in holding me to account and keeping the momentum going for me. I especially benefited from having some kind of assignment after each session as a way to remind myself of what I've taken away from each session and our discussions and keep it fresh in my mind.”

“I have experienced great benefit from Maryane's coaching. The sessions were conducted in a way where Maryane created a very comfortable environment that allowed me to express myself clearly and freely. I felt very involved in the sessions as a participant and due to her actively involving me in the decision-making process, a collaborator to the solutions she devised.

Maryane helped me recognise hindrances to me achieving my goals and she formulated ways to overcome the obstacles and achieve my goals. In our sessions, Maryane helped me realise the importance of self-compassion and physically acknowledging the positive things I have done and achieved. Which may sound simple but has had a profound beneficial impact on my perception on my tasks and goals, which will have an indefinite long lasting effect.

She skillfully enables you to analyse yourself, your behaviours, actions and their origins in a non-judgmental and realistic way in a safe setting she has created, that makes you feel empowered in the collaborative decision making process.

I am very happy with the sessions I received, as my aims for the sessions have all been achieved. The results from her sessions is that she has created a realistic and tailored approach for me to set and achieve goals with dedicated relaxing time, which enabled me to reflect and exercise self-compassion.”
