Post TestimonialKym helped me to move forward with less fear by asking me the right questions, for my own answers to emerge. She is warm and yet tough, which is what I needed and wanted from a coach. She motivated me with her sincerity and made me accountable to what I set out to do at the start of the coaching programme. She had also gone above and beyond her coaching scope, in order to move me in the right direction.
Prior to meeting Alan, I had recently joined an MNC and was apprehensive of being able to pass my probation as I had a bad experience in my previous MNC company.
Alan is a very experienced and successful corporate leader and as a coach he is very patient and helpful in listening to my challenges and coaching me throughout the dedicated 1:1 coaching
As a result of the coaching with Alan I have been able to become more organised, with a positive outlook and able to much better prioritize what I need to do to obtain my confirmation.These also have had a positive impact on the people around me as I am not only able to achieve what I am required to, but also help my key stakeholders to better work with me to achieve our shared objectives
If you want to be successful in your life and need a coach to help you in your journey, I highly recommend Alan as I am very sure he will be able to help you achieve your desires and goals
My coaching experience with Arun has been nothing short of transformative. Arun has allowed me to experience first-hand the power of re-framing and how shifting the lens in which I perceive a situation can have such profound and impactful change in my perspectives, emotions and behaviors. Through her active listening skills and patient guidance, Arun has also brought to awareness some of my limiting beliefs that were hampering further progress and successes to reach my potential. I highly recommend Arun as a coach to anyone who is interested to further their personal growth and development! Well-done, Arun!
Currently pursuing my own startup, and this new journey has been one full of obstacles. It has been a period of humility, fear, and doubt for me. Having access to Ricardo’s coaching every fortnight has given me confidence to trudge on, and clarity in my thoughts to move forward.
I have been busy in the trenches, sometimes narrowing my vision, and sometimes overthinking my difficulties. Ricardo has always been able to give me the aerial view I need of the situation, asking questions like “why does this matter to you?” to challenge my thinking. Ricardo is skilled in the art of coaching, being able to get the gist of my ramblings, and to help me seek the answers.
The amazing thing is, I actually have many of the answers in my head, but only through his methodical questioning have I been able to access that part of my brain, and fully explore the options I have. He engages me further in discussion to weigh and rank the options I have listed.
Through his intervention, I have had more courage to face situations I normally shrink from, I have been more productive due to the clarity he has helped me achieve, and in all I am more positive of the future that lays ahead.
Thank you Ricardo for the change you have helped me achieve. I enjoy our many conversations, and I have been greatly impacted. I am blessed to have gained a coach and an awesome friend.
There has been many changes in my life lately and it was very difficult for me to reconcile all these different parts and emotions. Coach Lin helped me to integrate myself, enabling me to see the growth I have been through in the midst of all these adversities. =) This enabled me to move forward bravely, with renewed strength.
Thank you Lin!
I was coached by Lin on various issues I was facing both at work and at home. Being a full time working mum to 3 kids, I was struggling to find my balance in my current lifestyle. Both areas took up a lot of my personal space, and I was somehow making mistakes at both fronts. Lin helped me see the reasons behind the challenges I was facing, and I was reconnected to how important it was to give myself space, to better manage the challenges ahead of me. The coaching freed up a lot of energy, and I was able to refocus my life on what was important, and figure out the next steps forward. Lin is one amazing coach, and I’m just glad our paths crossed.
I had the pleasure to be coached by Sylvie to make fitness a priority in my life again.
I was not eating well and not exercising enough for about a year and I ended up ballooning from 75kgs to 90kgs within a 6 – 7 month period. I really wanted to get back into a groove where I was able to steadily run about 3-4 times a week and eat healthy. However, for some reason I was never able to get started.
Through Sylvie’s coaching, not only was I able to get started, I achieved the following results:
Dropped my weight to 85kgs
Exercise 4 times a week
Improved my diet tremendouslyWhere am I now post coaching? I am now down to 80kgs, exercising 5-6 times a week, and eating better than ever!
I would recommend setting up a session with Sylvie as I have seen the results that she can provide during and after being coached by her.
I engaged a coach looking to help me with my challenges at work. Through the coaching sessions with Mai, she helped me speak my mind out and helped me explore further into the truth of my issues. She was also able to help rearrange my thoughts clearly for me to have a clear view for myself, and what the actual issue is. Having this clarity gave me a clear idea what immediate next actions I needed to take, and what I needed to improve on instead of being lost and confused.
I came in with only a tiny bit knowledge of business. Audrey boarden up my knowledge and provided plenty of insights and depth to the topic of business. I am able to sort out my responsibilities with my business partner, our job scopes and our relationship between us as partnership and us as couple. This improved our relationship as Husband and Wife tremendously.
Thank you for helping me to reconnect with the part of me that has long been rejected by myself. That’s the emotion kid that I left behind and disapprove of. I feel more complete and integral now 🙂
Thank you for helping me to see that my biggest limiatation is MYSELF. It is my own expectations, not others, that I need to break free too. Thanks for giving me the courage to stop finding excuses to be small and start to step up to shine 🙂
While I’ve only gotten to know Audrey for a short period of time, she has come across as a person whom is very genuine and shows a lot of empathy and seems to always have great questions that lead me thinking (out of the box) to work towards my goal/objectives. As a business/professional development coach, she’s not only good at motivating me, but also very good at “influencing” me to actually take action! Her strong empathy skills allow her to always focus on what I want/need. At times, when I seems “stuck” and tell her I can’t/don’t know how to do it, she would approach/coach me with different strategies and eventually I would “see the light bulb”! Last but not least, she’s also living what she teaches.
She’s definitely someone whom I would goto for business/professional development coaching help.
Wysen guided me through doubts and uncertainties with my career. Though I have a vague understanding, I usually find it difficult to pinpoint or contextualise my strengths and developmental areas. Through his objective coaching style, I have been making good progress in the career path I have chosen to take. Thank you Wysen!
Emma, Heartfelt THANK YOU & APPRECIATION for being my Mentor Coach. “Showing gratitude in one of the simplest yet most powerful thing humans can do for each other.” by Randy Pausch.

Thank you Pei Ying for providing open and honest feedback during our Supervisor sessions which played a big role in my growth as a coach.
Hi Teng Nging, your guidance, especially your analogies played a big role in my growth as a coach. Your analogies enabled to grasp the learning in a different way which was effective for me. I will continue to use them as I continue on this journey called coaching.
Thank you Lin for teaching us the skills that not only helps other people, but also makes transformational change in our own lives. The past 6 months have truly been a game changer in my own life. Thank you!
Ricardo became my coach to help on a specific issue in my life which was growing my business to use as my sole income. With his coaching I was able to understand better what is important to me, what inspires me, and clear up some misconceptions I have on some parts of the job. His calm understanding coaching style is encouraging, motivating, and helps me go deeper in my self-understanding. After each session, I took a commitment to take specific action and follow up with him on the next session. I have renewed motivation to take action toward my goals and dreams.
At the beginning of 2017, I set a personal goal to create and publish a children’s illustration book. This book is meant for my baby girl as a life long gift and also a starting point for me to become a part-time children’s book illustrator. However, by Oct 2017, I had not even started on that project at all. I realized that I need a coach to 1) discover my blindspot, 2) push me to finish the project on time.
I chose Mai because she bubbles with energy and compassion. And I also can sense that she is someone who I can connect with to realize find out what’s stopping me.
The coaching journey with Mai turned out to be an impressive one. Mai is a optimistic coach who is full of possibilities. She also helped me see the big picture of what I want in the longer run. I ended up finishing a book that I am pretty proud of by end of Dec 2017. It is even available for anyone to purchase on Amazon now.
Thank you Pei Ying for the constant challenge and belief. I never knew I could walk this far and get these results.
