“My time with Rachel has been an incredible journey of self-discovery, focus and newly instilled faith. There's no pressure, just a gentle unraveling of purpose, self-belief, progress and the discovery of tools I never knew I had.

It's incredible how I can look back and see all of the goals she helped me visualise and plan, and then see how I actually moved forward to achieve them.

What seemed like tiny steps led to things I wanted, it was Rachel’s guidance in tackling difficult thoughts and thought processes that helped me to progress.”

“I have been coached by Dr Rachel Knightley for about seven months now, and it has transformed every aspect of my life.

Rachel is kind, intuitive and insightful.

She has helped me show up with greater authenticity.

As a result, my health, work, relationships, hobbies and spirituality are all stronger – and also more fun.

I now experience greater curiosity, feel more adventurous and more in flow.

Thank you, Rachel!”

"Rachel is kind, empathetic and direct in her approach, while offering tailored guidance and support. I have already learned a lot from our work together; she’s helped me not just with specific issues, but has also helped me develop my way of thinking about and dealing with clients, which I implement every day.

Rachel provided guidance on difficult work-related communications, and I have found her help invaluable.

I would absolutely recommend her to anyone struggling with succinctness and clarity in work-based communications."

“When I look at my life before and after discovering Rachel’s coaching, I’m a different person. My confidence has grown not only in my work but in myself. The way I approach my mental health, what I want in my life... the change in how I show up for myself is almost unrecognisable.

Rachel helped me realise I am not alone, that the thoughts that happen inside my head don’t alienate me but actually connect me to others.

I feel like I’m putting myself first for the first time in my life, without judgement – and reminding myself I can choose the life I want to live.”

“I was so hamstrung by perfectionism and had a whole load of stories going on about what it meant to ‘get it wrong.’ You were just the right combination of warm and encouraging, all of my reasons for not doing it were just taken away.

No one has ever been perceptive enough to realise I'm editing constantly, every second of every day, speaking or writing, there's a constant editing process going on. And you just saying don't edit anything yet, that was transformational. I even signed up for a programme to write my website which I would not have signed up for without having done work with you.”

“Rachel provides the most nourishing, unconditional, loving space to feel safe, heard and supported. My confidence has flourished. As a branding expert I knew the importance of finding your unique voice. I had lost mine through past experiences.

Now it couldn’t feel more different. Rachel has supported me to find myself again. I’m free now. I have done a lot of deep reflecting, triggered by our sessions.

I can’t believe the ripple effect this is having. Rather than looking for inspiration, I learnt that I am my own inspiration, and I can’t thank Rachel enough.”
