    I can honestly say this has been the most rewarding and valuable time spent with Bethany and  I know I will be coming back at the next work chapter moment. I can’t recommend Bethany highly enough, coaching can feel daunting but with Bethany, it’s a breeze.”Louise Barth, Interim Director of Fundraising, St John Ambulance

    “Bethany is gifted and brings out the best in you, no matter where you are in your life. Before the programme, I would never have held the same value for the level of experience and skills I’ve gained over the years and can bring to the table to make the impact I want.” – Jaspreet Kaur MCIOF, Charity Development Director, The Sikh Development Academy

    “Bethany kept me focused and channelled my goals in a comfortable and engaging way. I always looked forward to our sessions as they were full of energy and very authentic. Bethany really hears me and guides me naturally through the coaching process.” – Nia Elias, Director of Business Development, National Museum Wales
