I first went to see Laura when I was stuck over two job offers and I could not figure out which way to go. Laura made me pause and we spent a number of sessions uncovering what I really wanted in my career, regardless of these offers. Lauras approach took a focus on a much broader and deeper level that gave me insights about myself that I would never have even considered by myself. Her coaching cleared a path in my mind that the every day thoughts can clutter, her service was invaluable to my future.

After returning from maternity leave I felt at a loose end with where my career was going and despite being with my employer for almost 10 years, I had lost confidence and lacked clarity on what I actually wanted. After a number of sessions with Laura at Optimise I was able to identify the things that were really important to me. Some of those things were obvious when I look back, yet I couldn't get to them by myself, others meanwhile were a real 'light bulb' moment. Understanding my values, my why, and the value that I brought really helped build my confidence back up and made my career conversations with my employer so much easier. Laura is a true coach and really listened to me, she made me feel empowered and clear in my decision making and I really don't think I would have got to this point without the coaching and guidance. Laura sets out to help people find fulfilment in their work, and I have to say, I sure have! Thank you

Laura was recommended to me by my ex-boss who holds her in high regard. I too am very impressed by her professional approach. She is highly encouraging, supportive and efficient. She really worked to understand my situation and my needs and provided solutions immediately. I would highly recommend her service to anyone who is looking for an honest, supportive and professional approach.

Laura helped me make the move from established employment into the world of Interims, which was a career goal I had been striving toward for some time but something was holding me back and preventing me from making the leap. Her coaching, knowledge and guidance were invaluable to help me understand why I wanted this and find clarity in what was holding me back so I could move forward.

Despite being sceptical about coaching I gave it go with Laura from Optimise Talent and have found the time spent with her really helpful and useful. I learned a lot about myself and found Laura to always be flexible to adapt the sessions to whatever topic I was most interested in or needing more at the time. I did the Performance Mastery program over 3 months and feel I have already so much to work on and put in practice. I highly recommend Laura as a coach
