"Bullshit! That’d be my first thought if you told me 6 months ago I’d be where I am today.
Suzanne has an uncanny ability to help you identify/focus on key life issues and then she arms you with practical tools to deal with them. Focussing on a few core issues has had an unexpected but truly amazing ‘domino effect’ on other areas including my career, which has literally jumped a whole level. The quality of my life across the board – relationships, career and family – has improved immeasurably and I am a far happier person for it.
Suzanne is singularly the key catalyst that has helped me make this possible.
Beyond a doubt, the best personal investment I have made yet.
Invaluable! That is what I think now".

"I am the principal of the new school, Albany Senior High School. Setting up a new school is a challenge. Suzanne has challenged me to hold my nerve when at times it would be easy to default to old thinking.
There have been staff challenges where I have had to come up with a solution that moves everyone forward rather than getting stuck in personalities. I have become more conscious of my leadership role and more conscious of how other people perceive the role.
Suzanne challenges, affirms, excites, reignites. It is a very exciting thing to do to open a new school. Working with Suzanne for me has been a hugely important part of the journey. I strongly recommend having this support as a principal. Having a supervisor gives the space to learn and grow as a successful leader.

I have been working with Suzanne for over a year now and looking back I can clearly see how far I have come in this time, thanks to the encouragement and support of Suzanne. Having regular check ins has helped me in so many ways, professionally and personally.
Talking with Suzanne, we are always in the real world – she is pragmatic and what I commit to in our sessions is doable and realistic. I always leave our sessions with a boost of energy and full of possibilities.
I am often surprised by how much Suzanne remembers from past sessions – it wasn’t long before she knew all the main characters in my life. She is a very good listener and every time gives me 100% of her attention – she has never had a “bad day” when she hasn’t been full of energy and enthusiasm.
I highly recommend Suzanne to anyone and everyone – every bit of effort you put into time with her will be worth it.

'On a tangible level the coaching has helped me think more clearly and take action more effectively. I knew I needed to grow my business. I was a sole practitioner and I didn?t employ anyone. I now have a team of 5'.

'I must admit when I first started, I was a bit sceptical about what I could achieve, but I chose to give it a go anyway. Now, I realise that only the sky is the limit. This has been a great discovery for me. I feel wonderful that I am actually in charge and can do the things to achieve what I want'.

'You have a gift for being able to help people, to give them hope, encouragement & most importantly a belief in themselves & their worth. In a world of people that often wants to knock you down you are like a ray of sunshine breaking through the storm clouds & I thank you for making life brighter'.

'I arrived on Suzanne's doorstep feeling like my life was racing out of control. I am a solo mum, I run my daughter to school, friends' houses and 7 dance classes a week. I hold down two high powered jobs; I run my home - (no housekeeper or nanny!) and I meet friends and family commitments. In my spare time I manage a NZ representative sports team and have just recently returned from the Athens Olympic Games. Through the use of sensible and intelligent steps, together, we chipped away at my firmly held belief systems that chained me to a life not unlike a mouse on a treadmill. And now I do not feel stressed at all and fulfill all my commitments with ease!!
I highly recommend Suzanne to you and may your time together be as happy and beneficial as it has been for me'.
Kim - Accountant
'It was clear early on in my sessions with Suzanne that I was working for a company that did not fit with my personal values and beliefs, and through working with her I was able to determine the type of company I wanted to work with and for. Suzanne gave me valuable advice and support as I entered the job hunting and interview process and gave me guidance through my resignation and signing up with a new company. I really feel that through my six sessions with Suzanne I have gained a lot of insight about who I am, what I stand for and what I want. Coaching has opened my eyes and made me realise that I really can influence my own destiny. I highly recommend working with Suzanne for anyone'.
