Here are a few extracts from our clients about the benefits they have gained through working with us:
My manager has noticed the change in me
"As a Mum to 4 children, I chose to work with Corporate Mothers because they really understood what it means to be a mum as well as a busy professional.
Amanda helped me identify what is really important to me and what I really want to do. This has completely changed the way I look at things and given me a fresh outlook.
During the time I worked with Amanda she helped me achieve excellent results both at home and at work: My director regularly commented on how I had changed.
Working with Amanda has been wonderful, exciting and really challenging.”
Alex Terry, ICAEW (Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales)
Regaining Confidence and Equilibrium After Returning to Work
“I started coaching sessions with Amanda because I was deeply unhappy with having to return to work after maternity leave and faced career upheaval and possible redundancy with a company restructure. I felt torn about leaving my child, uncertain about the future, and I totally lacked self-confidence in the workplace after being at home for a year. I felt it was important to explore my options before making any irreversible decisions.
Coaching has given me a quiet space to review my life and work out what makes me feel happy and secure, and a renewed confidence in my skills and abilities. I feel happy again and with the decisions I’ve made….the choices I have made since coaching have been well-informed ones and all positive. And I feel that I’m doing the best I possibly can in my home life and at work, and that I don't have to be perfect.”
Tania Nott, BBC
Getting Clarity on Direction
“I am currently expecting twins in the summer and am facing a dilemma of what to do with my business from the time that my children arrive to when they go to school and beyond. I have been running my business for 5 years and it is very successful and so I really did not want to give this all up; on the other hand I also don't want to miss out on my children growing up as I am only too aware that you don't get this time back.
It was great to be able to talk through my issues, concerns and possible solutions with Amanda who was unbiased and didn't judge - this to me was very important as friends and family always seem to have a view on what is best! The whole process was very empowering and was a little bit like talking out loud, Amanda helped me find the solution that I am most comfortable with and work out a way that I could communicate that with my husband and family to win their support.
Since speaking with Amanda I have put the plan that she and I agreed into action and my husband is totally supportive. I am working with my team to ensure that long term I can achieve my goals of a fulfilled and happy life for both me and my new family.”

Instantly feeling positive about work and home:
"I'm so amazed how I changed from having worries and negative thoughts to having a good feeling about how I will approach my new job regarding work life balance. And this happened in only 30 minutes!!!"

Helping me through an exhausting transition:
Amanda….enables her clients … to believe once again in themselves, their own abilities, potential and needs. Amanda helped me at a time when I was an exhausted mum to two young children, on maternity leave from a demanding job that at one time had filled many hours of my life. I was feeling tired and confused about the change in my life and what the future was to be. I knew what I wanted but my mind and heart were fighting and struggling against each other, as well as the past versus future … Amanda helped me to document my needs… (she) believed in me and my potential and zest for life, when I wasn't able to believe in myself”.
Gail Bennett
Still working hard yet 100% content in all areas of my life:
“For the first time in a long long time, probably since I got married, I feel 100% content with my life – in all areas of my life: in my relationship with my husband, as a Mum, at work, embarking on my new career, my friends, and my family; what more could I want! … I can now look myself in the mirror with total confidence and feel proud of me and of what I'm doing with my life. I no longer feel life is passing me by. As a result of this there have been huge benefits!
- I'm still working long hours but I don't feel stressed because the difference now is I know what I want, why I want it and I'm doing what I want.
- I have more energy
- My relationship with my husband is back to what it was like when we married
- My relationships in general are better because I'm more relaxed and am making the time for other people I'm more open to letting other people in.
- I'm still doing the same 'stuff' as before but I'm finding time to make time for the really important things in life my family and friends…. I'm living my dreams. Thank you Amanda.”
