Polly brings a lovely blend of compassion, insight and energy which allowed all the participants to find their own way during the initial exploration part of the masterclass. I’d personally only been in one to one coaching sessions previously so really enjoyed the learning that came from hearing other people share their breakthrough thoughts when we came back into the group setting. Thanks Polly, it was a great session which keeps coming back to me and has sparked plenty conversations with my clients, friends and family.

I’ve got my mojo back! If you love the outdoors, Polly is the one for you to get you back on track with her no bullshit approach! If you have lost your mojo or need some direction in life, give this superheroine a shout, you won’t be disappointed. 😍

Polly has been an amazing coach. Polly has helped me to adjust my lens see things from a more helpful perspective, introducing grounding techniques, confidence building strategies, and bringing a sensory approach, and breathing techniques to help me when work circumstances leave me feeling stressed and anxious. She has given me the skills to handle situations and tasks that have caused me anxiety and stress, showing compassion and understanding during every session.

Polly has been working with our clients for several years now. All of the clients who have had 1-2-1 sessions with her, all have in place and utilise a WRAP (Wellness Action Plan) and an i3-strengths focused profile. Polly has also carried out talks and workshops with the whole of our network and all who have attended have found her informative and very engaging and passionate. We love the fact that our network is familiar with Polly’s “mental fitness kitbag” to help them run their own business or work well in their employment. Polly is truly an asset to our network.

I have worked with Polly both personally and with clients for over 4 years now. Polly is incredible, she has such a calming presence and so much knowledge. Pollys ability to find tools and techniques tailored to each individual has been a game changer for many of my clients. Highly recommend and think everyone needs Polly in their life to help cope with modern day life.

Coaching with Polly has taken my life on the most amazing adventure and I am now living the life that I had only ever dreamed possible.
Polly has helped me to navigate through the most challenging times and given me the courage to keep moving forward, dodging missiles along the way towards achieving my goals.
Throughout this journey Polly has demonstrated her ability to really get to know me and taught me so many new, skills such as recognising who I need on my team. I am sure that we will continue to work together as I would now be where I am today without her, she helps me to stay on track and live my best life.
Thank you Polly!

After my diagnosis of PTSD, I was introduced to Adventurous Coaching by a veterans charity called Forward Assist.
I found it very difficult to talk but after gaining trust with 1:1 sessions we started planning my journey forward.
Working alongside Polly has helped me to create exceptional changes in my life. Her very positive approach, her ability to listen and her help to develop coping strategies made it a possibility for me to bring adventure back into my life once more.
Whilst coaching with Polly, I have been able to complete an SAS selection route called the Fan Dance, become a veteran’s charities fundraiser, accepted an award at Parliament for the Aviva Breakthrough Achievers award, become a public speaker and with Polly’s support and connections, I am writing my first biography.
Working with Polly has helped me to go from strength to strength and been an integral part of my way forward.

My big dream was to become a TEDx speaker to share my idea. This thought scared me because I am a visual communicator and standing on a stage talking in front of a large audience is way outside my comfort zone. Also the process to apply to be a TEDx spear was challenging because you have to go through m several stages of submissions, including creating a video proposal
With Polly by my side, coaching me as I created the video and exploring my purpose, I was able to take the steps necessary towards achieving my big vision.
Together we packed my mental fitness kitbag by nurturing my can-do mindset and strengthening my self belief to help me to lean out of my comfort zone.
I was selected from hundreds of applications to be a TEDx speaker and will realise my dream this year. Yeah!!!
At each stage Polly celebrated my success and lifted me up to meet the next challenge.
With Polly as your coach I truly believe you can achieve whatever you put your mind to too!

The work I’ve done with Polly has helped me be able to see the whole picture with whatever task, problem or goal that I’ve been stuck with.
By doing this, I’ve been able to break them down into more easily obtainable steps and avoid getting overwhelmed by the amount to do.
Polly has also helped me learn how to manage my emotions when I do get overwhelmed for whatever reason. Alongside the ADHD team, I agree that coaching with Polly has been as effective as my meds. Since working together, I have achieved an international prize in my profession!
