The Problem
Yvonne had been struggling to lose weight for many months. She lacked energy and rarely took any exercise. Yvonne was aware that she needed to change, but was lacking the motivation and encouragement to start. Yvonne wanted to look at a number of areas connected to her health and set some goals around weight loss, healthier eating, increasing her energy levels and getting motivated to look after herself and her family’s health better.
The Solution
We set up a series of 45 minute weekly phone coaching sessions and unlimited email support in-between each one. We looked at why Yvonne had started to neglect her health, what she really wanted to change and more importantly, how she was going to get there! We used visualisation to help Yvonne see how amazing her future would be once she’d achieved her goals, which kept her motivated. By checking in with the Vitality Coach each week we could keep track on Yvonne’s progress. Once the barriers to creating better health had been identified, Yvonne was able to start addressing these issues enabling her to work towards her goals. Within three months, Yvonne had lost the weight she’d been she’d been struggling with for a long time, changed the way she shopped for food and felt more energised and motivated to look after her health.
Yvonne's verdict
“Through coaching with Chris I improved my diet and fitness, which has helped me become slimmer, increased my energy and I feel much happier. I am now motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle.”
“Chris challenged me in a supportive way through his excellent questioning, enabling me to gain clarity. Chris’ coaching style was very supportive and encouraging.”

The Problem
Sarah was so busy setting up her business that her wellbeing had taken a back step. She had little energy to keep up with everything she had to do and her diet and fitness was suffering. Sarah was desperate to make more time for her health and needed help to reorganise her schedule to make health her number one priority.
The Solution
After an initial consultation to work out the areas where Sarah needed help, we began a series of weekly, 45 minute phone coaching sessions. We used a simple tool to assess different areas of Sarah’s health including her fitness, diet and relaxation time. Sarah was able to take each area and start to develop inspiring goals that would get her health back on track. Taking each goal step by step we were able to build Sarah’s motivation as she became more aware of her strengths and felt encouraged by her achievements. Sarah left every session feeling very positive, motivated and focused on my goal and the necessary steps to achieve it. After our sessions ended, Sarah had addressed her health and wellbeing issues and was filled with motivation to take better care of herself, by eating better, stopping smoking and taking regular exercise.
Sarah’s verdict
“Chris has effectively enabled me to address my whole health, fitness and wellbeing which I had been neglecting and identify my goals and the actions to get me there while giving me focus, energy, clarity and motivation.”
“The thing I love most about Chris is that I always felt 100% supported in my goal and that he fully believed in me. Having someone by my side who was full of encouragement, believing in me and my goals when I became disillusioned and keeping me on track was amazing. I cannot thank Chris enough for his support.”

| “Chris is a great coach and the sort of coach I needed to get me to think outside the box when looking at ways I can move forward regarding my health problems. |
| His natural easy going and assuring way made me feel comfortable and helped me to open up and be honest about issues that have been on my mind for some time. |

| “I completed 4 sessions with Chris focussing on health and fitness. I predominantly know what I need to do in this area of my life but I struggle to sustain it as a permanent life choice. Coaching with Chris enabled me to really focus on the importance of achieving my goals in this area and to identify challenging but achievable goals. It also really helped me to take responsibility for my actions. |
| Chris was particularly good at getting me to really define my goals clearly so I could then create a very specific action plan and he checked my commitment to following through at each stage. I felt comfortable enough to be very honest with him about things I don’t talk about and generally find uncomfortable and laying it on the table enabled me to look at everything in the round. |
| Overall it was a very positive, helpful and enjoyable experience which enabled me to make progress on my health and fitness goals.” |
