About Me

My name is Sarah Pocklington and I work with young professionals and business owners who struggle with confidence, self-belief and balance in order to achieve the life they want today, not tomorrow, through boot up the bum, no-nonsense coaching that will enable them to take decisive action.

Client Testimonials

Simone hated his new job & felt trapped. I helped him refocus on new opportunities and successfully apply for a new role where he is thriving.

Georgia didn't think anyone would give her a job after 20 years in the same industry. I helped her build confidence in her skills and experience to successfully apply for a new role in a new industry.

Jade was bored & wanted to change career but didn't know what she wanted to do. I coached her to clarify her ideal role and implement actions to attain it. She loves her new role which gives her the balance she craved.

Lulu runs a successful leadership development business but lacked confidence to appear on camera. I coached her to overcome her fears and now she regularly features in online workshops and videos.

Helen was struggling to deal with a challenging colleague at work. I coached her to understand the formal process and develop the confidence to address the situation professionally.

Laura was signed off from a stressful role and worried about returning to work. I helped her create simple strategies to help her manage the transition. She successfully returned to work and a role she loved.

Ameana was struggling to balance her professional role alongside her personal life. I helped her re-calibrate her current priorities and create an action plan to restore the balance she needed.

Alicia was nervous about an important interview. I helped her prepare, building her confidence and presentation skills to deliver a successful interview. She got the job.

Sandra was procrastinating and not making progress in her self-funded qualification. I helped her re-focus on her goal and identify where she was blocking herself. She completed her qualification and successfully changed career.

Lara lacked confidence on camera which was holding back her business growth. I coached her to enhance her presentation and messaging on camera. Now she regularly goes live within her business community.

Personal Insight

I specialise in 'boot up the bum' coaching to deliver engaging live interviews.  I help my clients step into the spotlight and I ️help shine a light on their business & personality.  I will coach you to grow your audience and attract new clients.

I can coach you to be more successful and I also run programmes where you can work in an intimate group to develop these skills.  Imagine being part of a small group of like-minded business owners who will support & encourage you to step out of your comfort zone while they step out of theirs!  Visualise reaching the audience that is looking for you.  Picture yourself connecting with potential clients who need you. 

Coaching Philosophy

Here are some questions I get asked a lot:
 
Do I live on my boat?
No, not quite but at this time of year I spend a lot of time on the boat. I also use her as an alternative office, which I love.

Do I coach on my boat?  
Yes, but only online. It's a great place to work and demonstrates that you can work from anywhere, with a bit of planning and a decent wi-fi connection. I don't coach in person on my boat as it's my personal space and that wouldn't feel quite right.

What type of client do I work with?
It's quite a range because everyone is different but broadly speaking I work with people who like their job but it's getting in the way of everything else they want to do - family stuff, seeing friends, going to the gym, walking the dog, cooking dinner - sound familiar? Remember, simple solutions create big changes.

What do my clients say about me?
My clients tell me they like my no-nonsense, direct approach. I cut through the crap so they can get to what is really causing them pain.  

"Sarah has enabled me to see the light through the fog." (Sandra, supply teacher).

"Sarah was supportive but challenging and encouraged me to be open-minded." (Amanda, HR Manager)

I describe myself as the sort of coach who gets their client to give themselves a boot up the bum.  

What qualifications do I have?
I qualified as a coach in 2021, I'm also an NLP Practitioner and DISC (personality profiling tool) Accredited. I can combine a range of skills and experience to support my clients as individuals, there is no one size fits all.
