As a professional coach, member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), and experienced mentor, I am here to support your journey using the following philosophy and values:

Coaching
I coach individuals, who feel a need for change but lack clarity on a path forward. By partnering with me, they reconnect with their inner wisdom and feel empowered to assess paths not explored before and make the decisions, no longer fearing the unknown of what the future may hold.

Client Testimonials
Prior to these coaching sessions, I felt like I was stuck in rut in my career, lacking confidence and unwilling to make change as I couldn’t identify a clear path to progression within my career. Through these sessions I identified a clear career path, developed my confidence and most of all, helped me to understand what my personal values are. (…) this allowed me to use these as a guide for better awareness of where I currently am in my career and also to assess where my career needs to go
Before I started the coaching with Marie, I was at a bit of a crossroads and couldn’t see a way of achieving all of the goals I had set for myself. The coaching sessions helped me to look at the goals and ensure they were realistic, achievable goals and aligned with the vision I had for the future. (…) have a better understanding on what I want for my future and breaking down roadblocks that were preventing me from achieving what I want. (…) Coaching has also improved my relationships with myself and others, by learning how to communicate more effectively, assert my boundaries, and have an overall better understanding of my relationships.
Coaching gave me an opportunity to take a deep dive into where I currently am in my career and where I want to be How to set goals for myself and achieve them (…) The sessions helped me remember I am my own person and more than an employee (…) I would like to take this opportunity to thank Marie Christine for her never ending support, guidance, openness and kindness during our mentoring and coaching sessions. The support I received was invaluable to helping me achieve my goals and reigniting the passion and belief in myself.
I found the coaching experience to be transformative, explorative and challenging. Marie has a unique gift in her ability to create a safe space to explore a topic whilst using her intuition to guide you through the process. (…) I experienced more clarity in my work and personal life, I developed a clear road map of where I wanted to go, I got excited for what the future holds
Marie is a very compassionate, intuitive and patient coach who was able to read my cues appropriately and fully understood what I needed to achieve from my coaching sessions. I found Coaching by Marie to be empowering and energising and resulted in me being able to reach decisions and goals that I hadn’t realised I wanted to get to at the onset of our sessions. (…) I became more confident in my decision making due to the reflective time I had within my coaching sessions and subsequently I became more determined to succeed with the plans I had made.
Before starting the coaching sessions, I felt scared because I was going through some big changes in my life, I felt like I was in free fall without being able to grab hold on something; I felt out of control. Now I feel like I still don’t have control over certain things, but that is ok. I feel balanced and grounded within the new unknown (…) In my business I have found a better structure that helped me do the work that needs to be done with greater confidence. (…) In my relationships I have been able to gain more clarity towards what I want to nourish and grow further and what I no longer want in my life. (…) Marie-Christine is non-judgemental, she brought an atmosphere of calmness and peace where I felt safe and grounded, she was open to explore new things together with me which brought me great transformative insights.
FAQ
What is the difference between the coaching and mentoring you provide?
- As an ICF member, I follow their definition of coaching i.e. ‘ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.’.
- As a mentor, I agree with the definition of mentoring according to EMCC i.e. ‘mentoring is a learning relationship, involving the sharing of skills, knowledge, and expertise between a mentor and mentee through developmental conversations, experience sharing, and role modelling. The relationship may cover a wide variety of contexts and is an inclusive two-way partnership for mutual learning that values differences.’.
