Superb sessions

I worked with Helen as part of the Cumbria Accelerator Programme and she was great. She really helped me focus and work on a number of areas of my business that needed attention. She was very warm and approachable, very knowledgable, and she gave me some great pointers and practical help whilst giving me clarity on what I need to do to grow my business, including actions and plans I had not before considered. I really enjoyed our sessions together. Would highly recommend.

Helped me focus

Working with Helen at Destination Coaching has been incredibly valuable for both me and my business. She’s approachable, easy to talk to, and has a real knack for knowing when to step in with insight that helps you get the most from each session.

I naturally prefer working independently, but that can sometimes mean missing out on constructive feedback. I’d reached a stage where I needed someone to bounce ideas off and help me reset my business benchmarks. Helen provided exactly that.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone who works independently or is looking to refocus and re-establish their goals, both professionally and personally.

more balance and contentment with 1-to-1 coaching…

I recently completed 1-to-1 coaching with Helen at Destinations Coaching and found the experience incredibly valuable. Helen introduced me to the concept of Ikigai, and with her thoughtful guidance, I was able to explore how its principles relate to my own life and sense of purpose.

Her coaching style is supportive, insightful, and encouraging. She asked meaningful questions that helped me reflect deeply, and I came away with a stronger understanding of what brings me fulfillment and how to create more balance and contentment in my day-to-day life.

I highly recommend Helen as both a coach and a teacher of Ikigai. Her approach is compassionate and empowering—perfect for anyone looking to reconnect with what truly matters.

I really enjoyed the workshop with Helen

I really enjoyed the workshop with Helen. Gave me a lot to think about and bring back to use in my work. The workshop allowed us to think about concepts relevant to us and apply them to our specific workplaces. A lot of information covered but was kept flowing at just the right pace. Would highly recommend.

Great ikigai intro workshop ...

Great online workshop that introduces you to the ikigai concept. There were also some light exercises to help you find our own ikigai and these were really helpful. Great teaching style.

Excellent

I attended the Breakthrough Leadership Workshop yesterday which was delivered by Helen, it was excellent from start to finish. I am new to my role and at the beginning of my leadership journey; the workshop was very informative and I have taken so much away which will benefit me long-term. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their leadership skills and develop strategies to enhance their performance at work.

Coaching for auADHD

Helen is an excellent coach. She actively listens and ensure that she has reflected back on what was discussed to give targeted and supportive coaching advice and exercises. I have been managing auADHD, and with Helen's help and guidance I've developed and become stronger.

Ikigai explained

Helen did an excellent job of helping us think about our own Ikigai and our purpose in life and business. The session allowed space for reflection and for us to consider what's important in our lives. I highly recommend it.

Really enjoyed the Ikigai masterclass. Helen explained the concepts clearly and professionally, giving helpful examples to enable us understand how to apply it to our own lives. I will definitely use Ikigai in my life now, and would highly recommend Helen.

Increased confidence in such a short time!

After moving into my first management position I met with Helen to increase my confidence in having difficult conversations with the team. This was something I knew I had to get better at and in only 4 sessions the difference is amazing! Being able to think out loud with some guidance from Helen really helped me feel much more confident. I was even able to bring real life scenarios to discuss and Helen made it so easy for me to decide on a course of action and feel confident in doing so. I no longer worry or avoid difficult conversations and feel more able to address things as they arise.

A really positive experience.

I have spent the last couple of months working with Helen, we have looked at a number of theories and Helen was so clear and used real like experiences to put these into practice. This has made it easier to continue to apply these to every day situations. Would highly recommend Helen.
