Destinations Coaching Omdömen 

I've had the privilege of working with Helen over several mentoring sessions, and I genuinely can't recommend her highly enough.

Running a small business can feel incredibly overwhelming, particularly when you're trying to juggle the day-to-day workload with bigger plans for growth. Being diagnosed with ADHD has also helped me understand why I often have so many ideas but struggle to know where to focus my time and energy. Helen has been brilliant at helping me cut through that overwhelm.

One of the things I've valued most is that Helen doesn't just tell you what you want to hear. She listens carefully, recognises the strengths and progress you've already made, but also isn't afraid to challenge you in a constructive way. She helped me stop trying to do everything at once and instead focus on the tasks that would genuinely move my business forward, rather than simply keeping me busy.

She has a wonderful ability to take a complicated situation and simplify it into clear, achievable next steps. Her advice is always thoughtful, practical and tailored to my business, never a one-size-fits-all approach. I particularly appreciated the time she spent researching software options, funding opportunities and technical support on my behalf. It was obvious she genuinely cared about helping me make informed decisions rather than just pointing me towards generic resources.

Helen is patient, encouraging and incredibly generous with both her time and knowledge. She creates an environment where you feel supported, understood and accountable, which has been invaluable for me.

Thanks to Helen's guidance, I've made some important decisions that have given me much more clarity and confidence about the direction of my business. Simplifying my systems, focusing on the right priorities and learning to work with my ADHD rather than constantly fighting against it has made a real difference.

If I had the opportunity to work with Helen again, I wouldn't hesitate. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive and genuinely caring business coach who takes the time to understand both the person and the business behind it.

Helen was great, highly recommend. Went in thinking I couldn't do anything outside of the job and industry I've worked in for years. Left the conversation feeling empowered and ready to explore what's out there.

Great coaching session. The Ikigai Leadership Masterclass was insightful. I really enjoyed the session and would recommend it to others interested in developing their leadership skills. Thanks Helen!

I worked with Helen as part of the Cumbria Accelerator Programme and she was great. She really helped me focus and work on a number of areas of my business that needed attention. She was very warm and approachable, very knowledgable, and she gave me some great pointers and practical help whilst giving me clarity on what I need to do to grow my business, including actions and plans I had not before considered. I really enjoyed our sessions together. Would highly recommend.

Helen comes across as a wonderful warm lady who comes across well & knows her subject well. Ikigia is new to me , but I would definitely like to know more.

Helen's enthusiasm for her subject is inspiring and I found her workshop session really informative. Helen knows her stuff and I would recommend chatting to her about Ikigai.

Helen has a great coaching style and is very knowledgeable about Ikigai. Her workshop is very informative, interesting and very thought proving.

Helen is lovely very understanding and really helps in the tracks of resolving issues! Highly recommend Karen x

Working with Helen at Destination Coaching has been incredibly valuable for both me and my business. She’s approachable, easy to talk to, and has a real knack for knowing when to step in with insight that helps you get the most from each session.

I naturally prefer working independently, but that can sometimes mean missing out on constructive feedback. I’d reached a stage where I needed someone to bounce ideas off and help me reset my business benchmarks. Helen provided exactly that.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone who works independently or is looking to refocus and re-establish their goals, both professionally and personally.

Helen was brilliant at offering advice and providing links to particular subjects we were engaging in.

Helen was on hand whenever I needed anything.

I attended the Ikigai beginners class with Helen, it was very informative and enjoyable and gave me a good understanding of the fundamentals and how to apply it to daily life. Helen is lovely and made time for Q and A. Would definitely recommend her!

Thank you Helen, I have read the Ikaigai book but you really brought it to life, and I now understand it in more detail.

Thank you for the workbook too and the slides I shall be doing some more work on this over the weekend, you made it very interesting.

I recently completed 1-to-1 coaching with Helen at Destinations Coaching and found the experience incredibly valuable. Helen introduced me to the concept of Ikigai, and with her thoughtful guidance, I was able to explore how its principles relate to my own life and sense of purpose.

Her coaching style is supportive, insightful, and encouraging. She asked meaningful questions that helped me reflect deeply, and I came away with a stronger understanding of what brings me fulfillment and how to create more balance and contentment in my day-to-day life.

I highly recommend Helen as both a coach and a teacher of Ikigai. Her approach is compassionate and empowering—perfect for anyone looking to reconnect with what truly matters.

I really enjoyed the workshop with Helen. Gave me a lot to think about and bring back to use in my work. The workshop allowed us to think about concepts relevant to us and apply them to our specific workplaces. A lot of information covered but was kept flowing at just the right pace. Would highly recommend.

Great online workshop that introduces you to the ikigai concept. There were also some light exercises to help you find our own ikigai and these were really helpful. Great teaching style.

A fantastic course, filled with plenty of moments that got me thinking about my current approach to management. In a meaningful and reflective new light. Delivered perfectly, involving the group in many activities to bring the learning to life.

I attended the Breakthrough Leadership Workshop yesterday which was delivered by Helen, it was excellent from start to finish. I am new to my role and at the beginning of my leadership journey; the workshop was very informative and I have taken so much away which will benefit me long-term. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their leadership skills and develop strategies to enhance their performance at work.

I attended Helen’s leadership workshop yesterday and I’ve left with lots of ideas to implement into my organisation. The workshop was well organised, informative and an overall great experience. Thank you!

Helen is an excellent coach. She actively listens and ensure that she has reflected back on what was discussed to give targeted and supportive coaching advice and exercises. I have been managing auADHD, and with Helen's help and guidance I've developed and become stronger.

Helen did an excellent job of helping us think about our own Ikigai and our purpose in life and business. The session allowed space for reflection and for us to consider what's important in our lives. I highly recommend it.
