Educational settings
As I shared earlier in my story when I left school, I was unsure what I wanted do next, but what I did feel was pressure to make the “right decision” and “enter my career for life”.
I remember feeling so lost, and with little support or opportunities to explore different career avenues apart from the universal employment options, which I knew deep down was not the career path for me.
Why do I want to support students?
Because I have been there!!

Lost and overwhelmed

DISC Profiling
DISC Profiling is a behaviour assessment, that allows employers to identify their employee’s strengths and weaknesses, providing individuals with more self-awareness, and increased communication & collaboration as part of a team.
(Individual DISC profiling to be purchased).
In 2022 I began working with university students at UA92.
On an individual 1-2-1 basis and within group coaching sessions
Below is feedback the UA92 students gave...
"The coaching sessions have been really beneficial, having the opportunity to have a 2nd opinion and talk through my thoughts and plans. This is something I would like to continue throughout the rest of my studies & would recommend to other students."

Has been helpful finding more out about goal setting and how to do this effectively

From having the sesions my confidence has grown alot

“I really enjoyed the sessions; I have more clarity and feel less stressed. I would recommend coaching to others.
It is great to have the opportunity to have someone who is impartial, who can challenge you on your thoughts through questions. Coaching indirectly pushes you, when you know subconsciously you have been putting things off. Thank you”.
