Nikki Leach

I partner with clients to ensure that they are engaged in developing their mindset, belief system and behaviours to align with what they most desire for their life, career and relationships. It's one thing to know what we need to do to change our lives but it's another thing to be able to apply what is needed to embody that change. Think Love is a holistic approach which combines coaching and facilitation with retraining our mindset to enable sustainable change.

Within my role as a Think Love Coach I:

• Evaluate clients through thorough initial meetings to assess working partnership suitability.
• Build positive, supportive client relationships to increase benefits of coaching support.
• Work with the client to identify targeted areas for personal improvement, working collaboratively to develop strategies for progress towards coaching goals.
• Create strategies for clients to apply their learning, addressing daily needs and specific stressors to increase positive mental and physical wellbeing.
• Encourage clients to set and achieve goals, increasing confidence and self-esteem.
• Address limiting self-beliefs to support clients in achieving their full and true potential.
• Inspire recognition and appreciation of achievements, increasing motivation towards personal targets.
• Provide work and career coaching to address aspirations and improve job satisfaction.
• Develop positive habits focused on improving overall health, wellbeing and life satisfaction.
• Encourage clients outside comfort zones to challenge limiting thinking and increase self-confidence.
• Use client feedback to improve coaching services and maximise positive outcomes.
• Document behaviours, treatments and issues for ongoing programme monitoring.
• Demonstrate how I apply the strategies shared to improve my own life, career, relationships and health and well being to achieve the goals I set myself - acting as a living breathing guide to my clients.
