Motivation, Energy, Results.That's what teachers get when they work with me to set up their own successful small business. Working as a teacher is challenging enough on its own. I know, I did it for 26 years. Without the added challenge of setting up your own business. But if you don't do it, you'll never move out of teaching. So what's your plan?There's the challenge:You don't have a plan?You don't have time? the money? the energy? the confidence? the Know-How?Unsure of what to do next?I work with teachers who are sick of working all these hours, and nothing's happening. They're confused and overwhelmed about what step to take next.They're struggling to juggle job + new business.They're worried about earning enough to cover all their bills. They're feeling guilty as they're not spending enough time with their kids. They're worried about not having enough clients.They're stressed, worried about money, constantly tired, feeling unconfident, frustrated, snapping at their kids. Neglecting their own well-being. Pulled in all directions. I was there too. Until I got myself a coach.Yes! I'm a coach, but I hired a Business Coach too!Because of my experience and my training, I can take all this stress away from you.I can show you that you can do this!I make this business idea possible for you.I can help you have financial freedom away from your teaching jobThen you can relax with your kids. Stop feeling as if life is just non-stop work. Quieten your mind. Use your time effectively. You'll feel confident that each action you take is time well spent, working towards the results you desire. You'll feel comfortable in your new identity moving away from teaching. You'll feel supported in that grieving process of leaving the profession.You'll have space to talk.To sort the stuff out in your head.I'll just ask the stragegic quetsions. To get you to arrive at your own 'lightbulb' moments.Please DM me to find out about my 1:1 coaching, 6-week intensive programme and more.A bit about me:I've been a perfectionist most of my life, and I've worked hard to overcome this unhelpful habit.I'm a linguist (MFL teacher) and I love running, swimming, cycling.I was an 'old' mum, having William when I was 44 years old.I live in Devon, in a small-ish village not far from Exeter.I came to coaching after redundancy from a teaching job I thought I'd have until I retired.I wrestled with demons for years after my parents divorced when I was 13 years old.My pet tortoise Albertina from my childhood still lives with us now.
