“A very easy-to-read handbook that I think almost all people will find of interest. … It is a really easy-to-read practical guide for individuals. I think everyone could take something from it and maybe improve their own personal situation. … this is worth a read.” (Nerys Williams, Occupational Medicine, Vol. 70 (2), March, 2020)“The accessible style allows the reader to draw upon sensible coaching advice for whichever circumstances they may find themselves in, and the reader is empowered to take charge immediately. … its appeal became clear - not only for clients, but also for practitioners in their own personal journey toward greater resilience and wellbeing.” (Lindsay Crago, University & College Counselling, May, 2019)
