CR had achieved great success in her career but self-doubt and stress were taking their toll.
Embracing and enjoying greater success
“The work I did with my Attitude Coach helped me understand what it was that I feared and gave me the tools to help me tackle self doubts and stresses which I was heaping upon myself. Alongside this, it was reassuring to learn that I wasn’t alone in feeling this way and that there were plenty of professional women, like myself, who could achieve, make change and excel with the right self awareness and techniques in place.
Ultimately success for me was:
- Establishing that it wasn’t uncommon for many women like myself to have self doubt, despite the success I had achieved already.
- To learn to pause, breathe and establish if I really ‘had’ to do everything.
- To learn techniques that would help me to stop fears in their tracks, and learn to identify and manage some of the stress and anxiety that I faced on a daily basis that would eat me up.
- And, to put a more realistic self ‘Purpose’ in place in which I aimed to achieve, rather than fear or dread.
Finally, it led me to making some bold decisions based on what I wanted for myself, rather than what I thought was the right thing to do. As a result, I now have a life that really works for me.”

It seems an age since I did your Power of Purpose programme but it has only been two years. In that time, I have gutted & renovated two houses, retrained as a community mental health worker and also gone
back to part-time study, as well as made a bunch of meaningful friendships
and re-connected with family. So, I'd say the work you had
me do before I left London for my new life in Australia was
successful!
- Caroline has become a trusted partner to Siemens UK over the past few years. She and her team have run a number of sessions for our Women’s Network focusing on topics such as Imposter Syndrome and Strengthening Personal Authority. The members of the Network have found these sessions extremely helpful and thought-provoking. Caroline’s style is relaxed, friendly and candid. She draws on her own experience of working in senior roles, encouraging participants to open up and share their own stories. Personally, I have found these sessions invaluable and I draw on the lessons learned almost on a daily basis. I would highly recommend Caroline’s approach to anyone wanting to help women in their organisation fulfil their potential.
- The team are much more positive about what they’re capable of and encourage and support each other to take on bigger challenges.
- I know myself better than I did before, which is hugely empowering. I understand why I react to events the way I do, and have the tools to adjust my mentality and respond in a positive and engaged way.
- I’m now living deliberately every day in every decision. I feel more empowered; I feel more alive.
- My boss used to lead all our client meetings but I now take charge so he’s free to focus on other priorities.
- This training has had a dramatic impact on the productivity of our business – women who used to hold back are now stepping up and taking charge so I’m freed up to focus on other business priorities. A remarkable result from an investment of just three hours of the team’s time.
- Every week, I grew in confidence, just by being me. Not only could I see the benefit that working with Caroline was having but my colleagues could, too. So, I feel fortunate to have had the chance of working with Caroline and would recommend her without hesitation.
- When I talk to Caroline, a big problem becomes a small one.
- The work I did with Attitude Coach helped me understand what it was that I feared and gave me the tools to help me tackle self doubts and stresses which I was heaping upon myself.
