Katy has a wonderful, gentle, clear approach to empowering her clients to incorporate productivity strategies into their life in a work or home- life context. She helped me in very practical ways to recognise where minor changes to my approach would make maximum impact and increase my productivity and enjoyment of my work. With these methods in place I no longer feel overwhelmed by my tasks and have been able to extend my work in further creative directions because I no longer use all my energy to simply stay afloat!As a busy teacher in a small school, I have many different roles to fulfil in the workplace and often struggle to balance work, studies and home life. Katy was really helpful to me and has given me a wealth of strategies that I have been able to put in place straight away to help me to organise my work and give myself a sense of achievement. Also, Katy has empowered me to be able to say no to unrealistic expectations with confidence and to prioritise my workload. Katy has a great understanding of busy people and the demands that so many of us face in the modern workplace and home.I found Katy's training so reassuring and helpful. She makes the ideas really accessible and encourages you to start in small ways. The benefit of this is that it has encouraged me to make a start with changing some of the things I do. I've already experienced lots of benefits and feel more on top of things and relaxed.
