Hi, I'm Jodie, I’m a fully qualified & insured life coach based in Medway, Kent. I’m passionate about enabling people to realise, believe and achieve their full potential.

 Many organisations have strap lines that state "We enable people to achieve their full potential"  HOW?! Individuals need to visualise and believe they can achieve. Self efficacy, positive self esteem and confidence isn't a natural gift, however we all have the ability to tap into our full potential, coaching enables you to do just that! 

I’m a parent to a teenage son who I adore (most of the time) teenagers are certainly testing! But also a mirror to show us our work-ons, strengths and resilience. Thank you Ellis for all the lessons and love you bring. I have a pet cat Gary who is getting old and fat. He mainly sleeps & eats but is a great source of love and happiness in our home.. along with my partner Pete last mentioned but by no means least loved!! Thank you Pete for all you are and all you do! 

Relationships is the main focus of my work as it effects 99% of our quality of life. In work, home and in social situations we have to manage relationships and the emotions they bring! Most importantly the relationship we have with self. We can't thrive without identifying and embedding self love into our lives. 

Physical activity & meditation is an important part of my life, I walk and connect with nature daily, all weathers! Including connecting with self-daily via mediation & mindfulness practices. I do this  to decipher and decide how to approach situations and manage my own health and wellbeing to positively impact the relationship with self and with those around me. I wasn't always like that however. I had 9 years of being a single  parent, full time working, trying to manage the complexities of life that led me down a path of dissatisfaction and despair.  I was then delivered my first ever life coach Alan Wilson, that's when my life took another trajectory. More about my journey below.

I come from a varied professional background of housing management to development, family coaching,  public health, health education via the delivery of personal social health & economics education and relationships and sex education (PSHRE) Workforce development via health and wellbeing training, including mental health first aid. I'm a fully qualified trainer with a level 3 award in education & training (PTTLS) 

Why Life Coaching

I set up aligned changes coaching to support people from young people to parents, individuals / couples and families or members of the children & young people workforce to enable them to find and connect with themselves and others to support, develop and sustain healthy relationships to thrive and feel alive. We are all work in progress, everything is a lesson, it's whether we choose to learn and grow from situations that makes the difference. Thrive or survive it really is a state of mind. Which do you choose?

After experiencing life coaching for the first time 12 years ago I transformed my life. Receiving coaching enabled me to identify my values, passions, beliefs, and purpose as well as drivers & blocks. This led me to leaving an unhappy relationship setting on the road to self-actualisation & personal transformation. All a terrifying concept as it meant I’d be a single parent. I stepped into my brave and embodied my power & passion.  I went back into education, changed my career after 14 years in housing to work in an area I feel incredibly passionate about, improving the relationships between people, especially families with children & young people. Even more importantly improving the relationships people have with themselves! 

My Journey

My journey started out as a very tired, stressed and unhappy mum ridiculing myself with guilt, guilt doesn’t lead to growth! 

My limited beliefs of not being good enough hindered any happiness. This was all from the dialogue i had for myself in my mind! We have around 60-90 thousand thoughts a day and 80% are recycled in the next... if your thoughts are negative... then your life will be negative.

I now have the job and life I said I’d have at the end of the coaching experience 12 years ago. “I don’t know how, but I’m going to support mental health education in schools as well as support parents” I’m now a child health officer supporting schools with the subject delivery of PSHRE personal social health & relationships education… In the day. In the evenings and weekends, I coach parents & members of the children & young people workforce. 

Coaching enabled me to identify my values and core beliefs, to learn and unlearn things to enable me to unleash the strengths, resilience & skills I needed to achieve my dreams & so much more! There have been curve balls along the way because life is life, these are all lessons. They've been my growth opportunities, by appreciating this, offering gratitude leads to growth! All the growth opportunities led to me achieving my dreams and so much more. 

If you’re feeling stuck or like you’re just floating through life, telling yourself certain opportunities aren’t for you, then connect with me. Your only barrier is your inner voice. Let’s work together to change the narrative of that voice. Tune out the old and tap into the new confident congruent powerful you.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life. You choose the next step, step into your brave, step into being the best version of yourself! I promise you; you won’t look back with anything other than pride & gratitude to yourself! 

I wanted to become a life coach to pay it forward, I can’t imagine where I’d be now if It wasn’t for Alan Wilson my first ever life coach. I hope I make you proud Alan RIP xx
