I am a coach and I spend far too much of my time in an echo chamber of coaches. I have recently had the pleasure of being coached by Safiya and feel compelled to recommend her as highly as possible for anybody in need of help dealing with change.
Safiya has a natural calmness and warmth which immediately puts you at ease. In my case I was able to trust Safiya enough to be fully vulnerable and talk through a difficult life long challenge of mine to the point where I was confident enough to take that all important first step. Thank you Safiya.
If I were to sum Safiya up I would say she is a compassionate guide who provides her clients with a safe space for thinking and reflection. Being change orientated, she is also adept at balancing the Client's need to think with their equal need to enact change through taking that first step and beyond.
I would like to bottle the space Safiya provided me with, I recommend you try it.
I highly recommend Safiya as a coach for anyone looking for someone to listen to their desires and any confusion they may be feeling in their career. From the get go Safiya made it very clear that our sessions were a safe space for me to express anything on my mind without any judgement. She listened to what I wanted to work on/speak about in each session and had an exercise or a specific topic to focus on prior to the session, so that the time could be used effectively. As well as speaking about how I could progress in my current career, it also helped me think how to go about in my general day-to-day and personal life. Thank you Safiya for spending time with me to determine what my main focuses are for now in my career!
I had coaching sessions with Safiya when I was looking for a new job, amid my employers going insolvent. It was an incredibly stressful time and Safiya helped me to find practical ways to manage my anxiety before and during interviews. The techniques we developed together were really simple and I was able to implement them whilst in interviews. Safiya is compassionate and empathic and her way of seeing things from a different perspective helped me regain my confidence. This and the techniques contributed to me securing three job offers and taking a big step up in my career. I really valued my sessions with Safiya, she is a fantastic coach who can help you navigate change and stressful situations.
You are such a great tonic…everyone should get a little Safiya to start their day
Thank you for your kind words and an even bigger thanks for giving your time these last few weeks to support me and provide a safe space for me to voice my passions, interests and any concerns I may have.
Safiya brings something fresh to the coaching world. Her warmth, wisdom and emotional intelligence make her a coach of great impact. She listens to you without judgment and uses her coaching knowledge and resources to help guide you towards the outcomes that you want or need. I can’t recommend Safiya highly enough to people wanting both the support and challenge needed to bring about change in their worlds.
Safiya is a powerful and compassionate coach who combines wise intuition, deep listening and incisive questions to create a catalytic and supportive environment to be coached in. I was able to trust her very quickly, and felt safe, heard and empowered as she helped me think through some challenges and opportunities. If you have a challenge to solve, an opportunity to explore and a change to make, then I can't recommend Safiya's coaching enough.
Safiya is an amazing compassionate coach. She's a very caring coach who is able to ask me great thoughtful questions that allowed me to really think about things properly. Safiya has great listening skills and she made me feel so comfortable throughout the session. I came into the session with my own personal challenges and Safiya has helped overcome them. Thank you Safiya.
