Jess’s Case Study: From stressful life changes to huge improvements in family relationships
Before Jess started working with me, she had been through some big changes in her life that all came around the same time, finishing university, starting a new job and was also dealing with some significant and stressful changes within her family which left her feeling in an uncomfortable position. All things combined she was experiencing a huge strain on her most precious relationships and sometimes found even small, insignificant situations a challenge to deal with.
Working together Jess was able to understand more about why she felt certain ways and through coaching is now able to think a lot more clearly and go into situations more open-mindedly. She's able to accept certain things for what they are and will question and try and improve things she wants to in a calm controlled way. She's able to apply this new energy to even small insignificant situations with the aim of solving the problem or move on. Her relationships with family members are better than she can ever remember!
How were things in your life and/or business before we started working together?
Just before I began my coaching sessions with Jenni, I experienced a series of significant and stressful changes within my family which left me in a difficult position with a huge strain on my most precious relationships.
What results and mind shifts have you achieved since we started working together?
Coaching with Jenni couldn't have come at a better time for me. She guided me through and out the other side of a really difficult time by helping me to understand and rationalise my feelings, listen to them, and make conscious decisions about what to do with them and how to move on productively, rather than destructively.
What is your biggest learning through working with me?
I have learnt how to listen to my emotions and understand how I'm feeling. I am now able to know my desired outcome in a difficult situation and choose to act in a way which will help me get that outcome rather than see red mist and act/speak impulsively.
What's the most important thing people should know about working with me? How would you describe to someone what it is I do?
The most important thing to know when going into life coaching sessions is that it really is a safe space. Jenni is there to help you, and the more you allow her to by being honest and open, the more she will.
For people on the fence about working with me, what would you say to them?
I'd absolutely recommend taking life coaching sessions with Jenni. When I first signed up, I was sceptical about how much it could really help me, but after the first session, it became obvious that I needed to talk to someone like Jenni and now, looking back, I hate to think where I could be without her help.
“I was lucky enough to start coaching sessions with Jenni at a really difficult point in my life where I was going through stressful changes in my family and work life. Jenni worked through each of my problems with me slowly and methodically - validating my feelings, rationalising my emotions and helping me to figure out how best to cope with and move forward from my frustrations. I am extremely grateful to Jenni for her expertise in coaching. I found her to be calm and patient as well as very skilled in knowing what to say and techniques to use in order to guide me towards my own positive and productive conclusions. I have seen a huge improvement in my relationships, and my own ability to cope with difficult situations and wouldn't hesitate to recommend coaching with Jenni.”
