In today's episode, we are diving deep into the world of coaching and its transformative power. Whether you're a new mum navigating the challenges of motherhood, seeking to advance in your career, facing personal growth obstacles, or dealing with a medical diagnosis, coaching can be the key to unlocking the life you truly want.

From her scoliosis surgery and the difficulties she faced along the way, to her remarkable recovery and growth, Lucy's journey showcases the power of coaching and mindset in overcoming challenges and achieving goals.

We'll delve into the differences between coaching and mentoring, and the value of both in personal development. So, if you're ready to discover how coaching can raise self-awareness, reduce stress, improve resilience, align behaviours with values, and ultimately lead to transformational change, then stay tuned.
