Testimonials
“Thank you. In a very challenging year for me, you stand out as one of the highlights.”
"I found it refreshing to speak openly and without fear of any kind of judgement. Having what I said reflected back and highlighted made a big difference in helping me be far more aware of my strengths and how I could go forward. It highlighted that what I was focusing on – trying to be ready for the future – was actually holding me back. I should focus on the now as that has always been what I have done and has been successful.
I also appreciated learning that there was academic thinking/science behind approaches we discussed."
"An expert consultant with a heart for community work is like gold-dust. Hannah prepared for our day so thoroughly and sensitively, managing to get us through a full programme with quiet personal authority and deep insight... We consider this money very well spent."
I’ve had the privilege of working with Hannah Mather as my communications coach for the past five months, and it has been an incredibly transformative experience. Her expertise and approach have significantly enhanced my communication skills, particularly with senior executives, including board members and C-suite leaders...
... Under Hannah’s guidance, I have not only seen a noticeable improvement in my communication skills but also gained a deeper understanding of my own capabilities and how to leverage them effectively in a corporate environment. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to elevate their communication skills to the next level.
"With Hannah's help, I successfully renegotiated and renovated my working environment. The organisation has restructured my job, which means I've moved teams within the company. This allows me to use my knowledge, giftings, and talent, and makes me feel far more productive and valued!"
"I'm at a real crossroads in my work and personal life and have felt like I've been jumping from one possible direction to another and another. Hannah has helped me to clarify what my passion is and what is truly important to me. She has helped me immensely in getting me to move forward with a tangible and strategic plan to step out into the next stage of my life."
"I always struggled with my courage. I believed I wasn't courageous. You helped me to see that that was ridiculous as I've done lots of brave things in my life."
"I had a wonderful time working with Hannah. She was so thoughtful and insightful that at times it felt like she was in my head with me. I felt safe to explore and discover new patterns in my thinking that led to greater clarity and insight in my own behaviours. I would recommend Hannah to anyone searching for a coach looking to find deeper purpose or intention in their lives."
