What clients say about Career Inspiration Career Coaching

“The best result of working with Angela is how I see myself now as a capable, likeable and intelligent person who can succeed at anything I put my mind to – you can’t put a price on that!”

I asked Angela for help when I needed to find a job. I’d not been on the job market for over 20 years and really didn’t know where to start. Yes there is plenty of stuff online but I wanted someone to guide me and this is where Angela came in.

The main challenge was that I’d never really competed for a job, almost all of my previous employment had been as a result of an introduction.

Through her Job Hunting Program I learned how to identify jobs worth applying for, properly craft my CV (tailored to each application), write a cover letter (something I’d never done before), and perform properly in interviews (by telling the right stories about my experience).

As a result of Angela’s help, I found a job with a highly respected, well-known, company and on more money than I was expecting.

I couldn’t have done it without her help.

In my view, Angela is the one to talk with if you’re going through the job-hunting process. You won’t be disappointed.

I consulted Angela as I was unsure of the direction I wanted to go in my career. At age 49 I was feeling stagnated and wanted a clearer path. I felt frustrated as I knew from observing the capability of others in the organization that I was capable of a more senior role with a lot more responsibility and ultimately, a higher salary but wasn’t sure how to move forward.

What I loved about the coaching with Angela was the subtle way that she used coaching tools such as her Points of You cards, to help me explore myself and my values around work and to gain clarity and also think outside the box. She helped me see and seek opportunities I hadn’t necessarily thought of. I learned that I can go for roles outside of my comfort zone and get them!

I have no doubt that the career coaching I had with Angela has enabled me to make a significant career leap in a very short time. The job I have recently accepted offers more than I could have imagined in terms of challenge, the ability to make a difference, use my skillset and with remuneration to match.

Angela Couch has truly been an inspiration for me career wise.

Her guidance has helped me immensely in figuring out the crucial next steps I need to take in my career path.

She has helped me get clear on not only goals but also my values and the what’s & the why’s.

I learned what my values are and how I had been ignoring them.

And, most crucially, the importance of aligning my values with my chosen career path. 

I was chasing a career for the wrong reasons and found it unfulfilling. 

Now I’m far more confident & assured enough to follow through on my plan of action with clearly defined, practical objectives. 

I’m more motivated than I have been in a long time and I’m clear on what the important next moves are that I need to make in order to progress my career.

This is a service that is sorely lacking in the current landscape.

Highly recommended.

I came to Angela as I was extremely unhappy in my workplace. I was unhappy with the company culture, the pay and my levels of stress. But I also felt stuck there.
I was hoping Angela would be able to help me develop some clarity and confidence about what I wanted to do next as I didn’t want ‘just another job’. I wanted to do something that would make me happy and keep me interested and stimulated with the opportunity to earn more. The issue was, I didn’t know what that looked like or even what industry I wanted to be in.

The best result is how I see myself now. I see myself as a capable, likeable and intelligent person who can succeed at anything I put my mind to – you can’t put a price on that.

If you want to develop and move forward go to Angela. She’s incredible at what she does, her many years of experience in HR and recruitment clearly reflect in her work. Angela is very easy to work with and she genuinely cares about you and your progress.
I couldn’t be happier with my results!

​Angela has motivated me to work on the insights and perspective that I developed from the coaching session.

I particularly liked the ”Points of You” cards Angela uses to help you see potential blockages that could be getting in your way, things that may not be working for you any longer plus insights to help you get to your next step.

Angela is excellent at what she does. I felt very at ease with Angela. She has a genuine care for you and creates a safe space in which to explore your current situation, clear any limiting beliefs that may be holding you back from exploring further options for your future.

I would highly recommend anyone feeling ‘stuck’ with what should be their next move in their career to seek out Angela’s expertise.

Melinda

Working with Angela I had someone to listen to me, to guide me, and to help me put a systematic process in place to follow and measure myself against.

Most importantly, Angela’s coaching was a very friendly approach.

I didn’t feel myself being judged and some key guiding points were spot on.

Angela, I have deep gratitude for your support and help.

Thank you for being there for me.

Chadi

Angela is flexible and very easy to talk to.

She asks questions and gives exercises which will help you find clarity about what you want to do next and how to get there.

Her approach is gentle but structured and the face-to-face sessions are very interesting.

Personally, I found career coaching very useful in helping me identify my priorities and next steps.
