Right from the first session Meike made me feel comfortable and heard, and through our following three sessions walked with me through my feelings and thoughts, not letting me hide from anything, but not pushing me either.

 

The 'homework' sheets helped me focus outside our sessions, and gave me food for thought between our meetings.

 

Meike's coaching made me feel more empowered, and I have started to know myself better. It is very hard to leave academia, but with Meike I feel that I found a path and the strength to walk it. I still think about what I learnt, months after our sessions finished.

 

So, in summary, I would definitely recommend working with her, and I would go back to working with her in a heartbeat if I needed more support or advice.
