Why You're Here

At Michelle Cole Coaching I put my heart into every meeting that I have with my clients and this means that you are at the heart of everything I do.

My company slogan is ‘Bee a Better You’ and I chose this as a reflection of what my coaching is about – helping people to fulfil their vision of what their ‘best self’ can be.

We are all wonderful people with our own strengths and weaknesses but we can all be better: at life, in our careers, as a family member or even as a partner in a relationship. It is just a case of identifying what strand of your life you would like to focus your efforts on and knowing why you have chosen this particular area.

At Michelle Cole Coaching there is no judgement. I will never make you feel ‘not good enough’. We are all unique individuals who come to the table flaws and all and there is an acceptance of that from the very first time we speak.

What My Clients Say

Career

I contacted Michelle for some coaching around work and how the pandemic and coming out of the lockdowns had affected my plans and attitudes. Her effective and insightful questioning helped me to narrow the issue down to resilience and confidence in this area. She was then further able to help me when the situation changed to applying for a promoted post within my institution, she was able to help me resolve some of my fears around this and pivot the coaching to work around interview preparation (something which I had struggled with in the past). Her coaching was invaluable in helping me uncover and resolve a number of limiting beliefs that I had around this topic. I would thoroughly recommend Michelle as a coach.

Work/Life Balance

Michelle offered a highly personalised and individualised coaching plan that enabled me to make manageable and purposeful changes to my daily routine. She created a secure space in which I was invited to reflect introspectively on my personal development. Her subtle, non-intrusive questioning empowered me to create achievable steps to improve my work-life balance and self-care routines. She initiated the change process by recommending strategies that would allow me to flourish without compromising my wellbeing. Since implementing the action points created with Michelle’s guidance, my productivity and performance within the work place has been positively impacted, as has my sense of self-efficacy.

I am truly grateful for Michelle’s invaluable support, sensitivity and insight and consider the process to be an indispensable one .

Family/Relationships

Before I received any coaching, I was not sure exactly what it would entail or what outcomes I was necessarily expecting. I am pleased to say that Michelle was, straight away, a calming and soothing voice who went over exactly what the session may look like and really asked - and cared - what I wanted out of it. This was a real thread through our sessions, ensuring that my needs were met as the client.

Her coaching style was open, honest and supportive; I felt very comfortable and safe discussing any thoughts and issues I wanted to raise and have support with. It didn’t feel like something being done ‘to’ me, but very much ‘with’ me; I am grateful for the guidance and the encouragement and am convinced coaching would be a helpful tool for anyone who embraces the process
