Shabari, Project Lead, London

Shabari learned to make decisions, and become a more confident leader. She realised she had the ability to be a great leader, even though, for a long time, she had doubted her ability to speak up. At the end of our programme Shabari ran a 3-day event, standing on stage and confidently presenting to her peers and industry experts. She couldn't believe that she did it without any real nerves!

"I reached out to Simon when things were going well for me and I had no obvious complaints in life or work. But I felt I had been in this space for a while and I needed to change gears and didn’t know how, where and what to change.

From the very first session, Simon's style of questioning made me realise I could believe in myself and all the answers I needed were within me and it continued every single time we met.

I thought it was interesting that I set out talking to Simon with no end-goal to achieve in my mind but achieved so much. I honestly felt like something had unlocked within me and I sought out opportunities that were in front of me all along but I never reached for it.

I was using our sessions to break-down the hurdles I faced in these new situations I found myself in. Simon's simple practical solutions helped me get through them with ease that I never knew existed within myself. For this I'm ever so grateful I found Simon at the perfect time.

I'm definitely going to work with Simon in the future with a new challenge."
