Lucy’s Psychologies Magazine article – March 2020

I was approached by Psychologies Magazine to be the featured “Ask the expert” in the March 2020 edition. This marks a professional milestones for me. I did not think I would ever feature in a publication. Writing is not something I thought I was good at. Yes, imposter syndrome is alive and well in a successful coach! In response to the invitation I think I replied “yes, of course, but surely you have asked lots of other people too?” It is a genuine thrill to see it in shops and know I am featured in it!

I put off writing the article. Why put myself through the pain of doing something you believe you can’t do? But, I am learning to recognise the voice of my inner critic. When I hear it I chose not to hear “I am not good enough” or “thanks but no thanks” and “everyone will think it is terrible”.  If I let my inner critic win I wouldn’t be helping someone in need. I wouldn’t feel the joy and pride it gives me to face my fears.

In reality, my writing is good enough and, if it isn’t, the great team at Psychologies are on hand to help. I wouldn’t be failing if it is not published. Instead it would be a fantastic learning opportunity. And, as for validation and approval, there is only one person that can do that and that is me.

The response to my feature has been fantastic. It has spurred me on to write more on a number of different issues. It may not come “naturally” to me but I am happy to practice the art, to share my expertise and help others.

"Within the first session of working together, Lucy was able to unpick my scrambled thoughts and aspirations with the deftness of a surgeon, but the approach of a close, trusted friend. I still don't fully know how she did it, but Lucy was able to unlock my core values and drivers in a way that I have never been able to quantify or verbalise by myself. It was quite a revelation and the starting point that I was missing.

She has been incredibly encouraging & supportive as my confidence has waxed and waned, has given me a top-up of pragmatism when needed and most importantly of all given me clarity when all I could see was fog.

I recommend investing in time with Lucy as the benefits can be quick to present themselves and she will help you find direction that is both very personal and highly motivating."

"Lucy has been working with us for a year now, helping to build the skills and environment we need to operate a work culture that puts a lot of emphasis on taking personal responsibility for your own performance, whilst also requiring a strong team ethic. It's not an easy outcome to achieve and without Lucy's help we would really have struggled. But thanks to her, we've seen a lot of success: I can see that through the way that everyone really works for each other, but also in how individuals have developed and improved under her guidance.

I know the team get an awful lot from her group and one-to-one sessions, and their feedback is extremely positive.

For anyone looking to develop critical soft skills, emotional intelligence, and genuine team spirit, I would thoroughly recommend Lucy, she's been a key part of our achievements recently, and I hope we'll keep working together for some time to come."

"I found it very helpful to be listened too and for my thought processes to be valued for what they were, which supported me in having the confidence to take on alternative ways of thinking or doing things."

"Lucy has been an incredible asset to TechPixies. Working with many of the women who did our Face to Face programme in Oxford, she helped them find their confidence and values in order to successfully return to work, change careers or start a business.

It was a pleasure working with Lucy and she was extremely organised and professional.."

"I had the pleasure of working with Lucy at TechPixies when we worked jointly on a Cohort of women moving through the Social Media Magic course.

Lucy was excellent at facilitating the face to face group life coaching sessions and highly skilled at encouraging the women to visualise a change in their path and personal progress, which some women found very challenging but with her support they found possible.

Lucy was a pleasure to work with, and I would have no hesitation in recommending her as a coach."
