Success Stories
“Working from home and being a single mum meant that I got into a routine of eating bread, bread and pasta (& wine) for my three meals. I kept putting on weight but really didn’t have the energy or enthusiasm to do anything different with my diet.
“Charlotte explained my lack of energy was probably due to my terrible eating habits. After one phone session with Charlotte and a personal food expedition, I have had my eyes well and truly opened to the wonderful world of healthy eating. Not only has Charlotte given me a motivation boost with her can-do attitude but she has also imparted a wealth of nutritional knowledge that because of her inspired ideas and recipes, I can actually fit into my hectic life.
“Now I am trying all sorts of new foods, experimenting with recipes and eating so much more healthily. I am waking up with more energy and looking forward to cooking the evening meal. What a difference! In fact, I am feeling so good and enjoying my food so much that, even though I have lost a few pounds, that is no longer my focus. I feel good and know my body is happier all round – the weight loss will follow – but it is not controlling my life!”

'When I started working with Charlotte I was adamant that I didn't want to go on a 'diet'. The first step was for her to carefully analyze the foods I was eating but in addition to this consider how and why I made these choices. I was fairly well versed in 'healthy eating' but was failing to integrate this knowledge into my hectic life. Charlotte helped me to understand that I didn't need to restrict the food I ate but merely make easy, manageable changes. I suffered with low blood sugar and mood swings and she advocated low-fat snacks as a great way to boost my metabolism and stay focussed at work. I swapped daily espressos for caffeine-free teas and my eczema disappeared. I dramatically reduced my wheat consumption and enjoyed a flatter tummy within a week. But the most noticeable and long-lasting result was my increased energy levels and weight loss. It is not an exaggeration to say that working with Charlotte has revolutionized the way I think about food and nutrition - they are now the same thing in my mind. Charlotte is always on hand with ongoing advice and support and gladly shares her delicious recipe ideas. She is a professional, down-to-earth coach who will help you reach beyond your personal goals.'

“It is incredible to see what I have achieved in such a short space of time through working with Charlotte. I could never have dreamt back in December 2006 that I would be feeling this much more happy/confident and content now; I have even gained a promotion at work, lost weight and recently walked a 26.6 miles marathon across the Isle of Wight.”

'I enjoyed the flexibility of working by telephone. This enabled me to fit life coaching into a busy life and was as effective as meeting face-to-face. I actively looked forward to the sessions, which were interesting and thought-provoking. Charlotte listened, checked understanding where necessary and provided helpful challenges, while remaining supportive and encouraging throughout the process. Between each session, Charlotte backed up verbal discussions, agreement to actions and goals with e-mail communication. I found this helpful as it ensured I was clear and remained focused. I felt supported and motivated as any questions I had were quickly responded to by e-mail between sessions. In addition, Charlotte was extremely helpful in directing me to resources, which might assist with my goals. The coaching provided by Charlotte has exceeded my expectations. I am amazed at how I have been able to declutter my life and thinking. Coaching has enabled me to identify my priorities in life and shown me simple approaches to progress towards my goals.'

'Charlotte's approach put me at ease and made it easier for me to talk about myself and really discuss what was holding me back. In no way did I feel judged because she is friendly, approachable, and positive which helps create a drive in you to succeed at your goals by making you think about what you really want. I have come away from this coaching experience feeling more positive; better about myself and with a more can-do attitude. I have learnt that I can be happy and optimistic if I choose to be. I have also discovered a lot more about myself and how to improve different aspects of my life. I would recommend Charlotte to everyone interested in improving their lifestyleas I think she is adept at tackling a range of issues and topics and don't think anyone could possibly walk away feeling unfulfilled.'

'With the explosion of coaches over the last few years, how do you know that the one you choose is any good or right for you? Finding a good coach can be difficult and I’m very happy to say that I found a great one in Charlotte. Charlotte is extremely professional and personable and is great at helping you to get clear on what it is you want and then helping you to discover the best way to get it. Her follow up support even months after the sessions have finished, just to see how you are doing, is great and has helped me to keep on track. Whether you’ve lost your way in life a little or whether you know where you’re going and just want some help getting there, I highly recommend Charlotte to help you achieve it.'
