TESTIMONIALS

Georgina’s honest approach to personal development strikes the perfect balance of realistic goal setting, personal growth and accountability. There was a definite sense of care in the workshop which helps open up and unlock the individual response to how we as individuals make progress but also how external factors contribute. Georgina offered a comprehensive and frank look at how to manage our own expectations and how to combat the mental and practical pitfalls of being in this industry. Would highly recommend catching one of her personal development workshops!

I recently embarked on life coaching with a couple of different coaches. The first I found to be similar to a therapist and from a work perspective, there was no new revelations or concrete paths forward after the session. I then had a session with Georgina, who took a different approach. She listened, asked questions and took extra step to give ideas & concrete tasks for me to complete that really helped. I found my sessions with Georgina more constructive, practical and beneficial than they had been with the previous coach. I cannot recommend her enough - thank you, Georgina, for all your help and advice!
— Bonnie, Teacher

Thank you so much for the sessions working through my career ambitions, in particular the way you helped me to extract a simple and manageable way forward with all the different areas of my work that I’m juggling. It was beyond useful!
— Richard, Actor & Carpenter
George is empathetic, structured, and thoughtful. She brings strong frameworks for coaching but matches them up with intuition and active listening. Could not recommend her enough.

Georgina designed an amazing process. The strongest part was working as a group, then in smaller groups and pairs, then back as a group. That worked so well via Zoom where you usually miss the small chats and organic conversation. You were very aware of giving everyone space to share their opinion – a fantastic and insightful series of workshops
— Artist, Un-Coaching participant
Un-coaching personal development was a real eye-opener for me into what it means to be an artist and whether making money from my craft is necessary to my artistic identity. I got to explore my personal identity which is key for any artist storyteller as well as looking at practical tools for self-care and motivation. Georgina held a safe space and provided a wealth of tools for self-reflection and decision-making.

It was such a joy to be with such a brilliant mixed group of artists on this course, a group of really kind people who all listened and shared and reflected together. It’s rare to be given the time, space and support to reflect about everything. I learnt exercises and tools that I can take forward and keep coming back too, which were brilliant and new to me. It helped me find a real sense of clarity and think about where I am putting all of my energy and understand perhaps where I would gain from shifting my focus. Thank you Georgina!
