I was a high functioning, multi-tasking, successful corporate manager and mother of two; people who knew me would have told you I was a lovely person with a big smile, and certainly nothing was ever too much trouble for me to not help out with. Yet, I can clearly recall my first conversation with Selina, the words ‘I just hate myself’ rolled so easily off my tongue.

Thank goodness the universe placed Selina in my path, (twice), and the second time I was brave enough to pick up the phone. I am not sure exactly what I expected, but what I found was an understanding, tremendously insightful woman who had definitely walked in my shoes. Her life coaching program helped me reflect on my thoughts and feelings, and educated me to gain an understanding of the incredible protective measures that our brains have. The self-awareness that I developed was profound. Taking control of my internal dialogue, understanding the power of language and changing the words I spoke awoke a strong sense of being. I found myself consciously aware of the beautiful world around me, pausing to appreciate others, and most importantly feeling without doubt, that I was in control of my life. The strategies and exercises that Selina skilfully assisted me in navigating have stayed with me. Better yet, I have been able to initiate conversations amongst friends and family about the importance of language and taking control of my ‘inner voice’. If you are hesitant to take the first step, or don’t think that life coaching can help you, take a chance and permit yourself to be vulnerable, even just for a few moments. There is a wonderful world full of confidence, self-worth and joy………… if you can just take a step to improve your mindset.

When I first met Selina, I had no perspective of my worth, as the life changing event of losing my job had devasted me. Selina really got to know me by asking a lot of in-depth questions including my dreams and goals. She stepped me through each positively framed coaching session, provided new points of views and we worked through my sticking points one by one. Selina used a wide variety of techniques to bring me back on a solid path and after 4 weekly sessions I was ready to apply and interview for professional employment roles that met and challenged my abilities. Selina’s encouragement and coaching didn’t stop there. We continued our sessions on a monthly basis or as required and it was during this time, I landed a brilliant job leading a small team in local government. Not only did I have a great job I also had a salary that reflected my worth. Selina’s leadership and interpersonal relationship advice was incredibly grounding and she helped me to quickly settle into the organisation. Selina also taught me to be brave, use my voice and to step up and be accountable. She often called me on my self-deception and doubt. After 18 months, using my new skills, I moved jobs and negotiated a higher salary, something I have never done before. I’m also a yoga teacher and everything that Selina taught me flowed over into my teaching. I am a proud, poised and passionate teacher and believe in my ability and serve my clients. I continue to work and grow my wealth, health and happiness with Selina and highly recommend her coaching services.
