I would thoroughly recommend working with Belinda.
As a coach, she was insightful and knowledgeable. As a person, enthusiastic and encouraging.
Belinda has enabled me to look at my career holistically, and embrace my WorkStyle and values. She invited me to consider things from a different perspective and challenge the status quo in both personal and professional circumstances.
I feel I have been on a journey of discovery and am all the better for it. Thank you Belinda.
