From the start, Sally helped me create a vision for my wellbeing, reminding me why I wanted to make these changes and keeping me focused on my goals. One of the most powerful things she’s done is ask me killer questions that have really stuck with me—especially, "How does this help me progress my goal?" That question alone has made me rethink my choices and stay accountable. But what’s been most valuable is that Sally hasn’t just provided me space to talk —she’s given me brilliant, practical resources that I use every day. This has made all the difference. As a result of her coaching, I’m out of my unhealthy rut and back in control of what I’m eating. I have a healthy relationship with food, with great recipes to satisfy my sweet tooth in a balanced way. I’m also back in the gym and have even invested in myself with PT sessions. I had a bit of a blip over Christmas, but Sally picked me back up and got me straight back on track. I can’t recommend Sally enough. If you’re looking for a coach who truly listens, challenges you in the right way, and gives you real, practical tools for change, she’s the one.

Seeking space to reflect on my activity and food routine the coaching from Sally gave me focus to consider and the impact on my wellbeing. Seeing the influence unplanned eating had on my mood was of real significance. Turning away from the afternoon sugar crash but managing this with planned balances eating had a real impact on my afternoon concentration and mood. Focusing on feeling better and not being slave the scale numbers gave me a sense of perspective on my achievements. Sally encouraged me to aim high adopting many small changes to see an overall change.
