Are you dissatisfied with some aspects of your life right now? Is there something missing and you are not quite sure what? Coaching may be the key to you finding these answers.
Simply put, coaching is a purposeful conversation, ideal for anyone pursuing clarity, direction, and positive change in their life. Making change, whether in our personal or professional life can be overwhelming and often results in procrastination or the feeling of being stuck. My job as your coach is to facilitate a safe space where you can take stock, reflect, and define what you really want. Coaching is forward looking; therefore, I will encourage and support you to take responsibility for the decisions you want to make and the actions you want to take leaving you with a renewed sense of empowerment and confidence.
Hi, I’m Mandy Palmer and welcome to Distinct Coaching. I intrinsically believe that whilst we are all similar, there is something very distinct and unique about each one of us, and it’s that distinctiveness which motivates and drives me when working with people. I originally trained as a career’s adviser, guiding students and adults with their career aspirations. This experience naturally led me into the exciting world of coaching, which inspired me to train and qualify as a professional life coach. Coaching is for everyone regardless of age, gender, experience, race, or topic, and that’s why I love it. I work with an eclectic range of clients from all walks of life from 18 to 70 plus. Whilst they all come with different goals and choices they may want to make; the golden thread is that they all desire change and are excited for it to begin.
If you are not satisfied with where you are now and you cannot seem to eliminate the mind fog, I am here to help. I will challenge you (nicely!) and massively champion you as you set yourself realistic goals and make the changes you want in your life.
I am a member of the Careers Development Institute (CDI) and a graduate of The Coaching Academy and agree with and adhere to their Code of Ethics:

Counselling guides and helps a person to resolve personal, social, or psychological problems and offers coping strategies. Coaching begins with the end in mind. It explores where you are now and what you want to accomplish in the future which results in outcomes and actions. That said, during the conversation barriers and limiting beliefs are often revealed which may be holding a client back from achieving their goals. My approach is to explore these sensitively in an open and honest way and encourage the client to find their own potential solutions to these obstacles.
We begin by reviewing the previous session; what has gone well, what has been challenging and celebrating any successes. You will then take the lead on the topic or theme you would like to set your goals around. Each session will end with you having explored the reality of your goal, the options you have and the actions you will take, going forward, to fulfil this. Through engaging me as your coach, you have already committed to financially investing in your life, so to come prepared will ensure a purposeful conversation will always take place and you will complete each session knowing you have made a good return on your investment.
My clients include young professionals, university graduates, retirees, working parents, business owners and anyone who wants to improve their personal performance, increase their self confidence, and take the actions which will bring them the success they want for their lives. Topics I coach people on include:-
Depending on your preference, our sessions will be either be via telephone, WhatsApp or Zoom, with no more than a three-week interval between sessions. This keeps the momentum and focus current.
* This free consultation is to determine what you are seeking from coaching and how we can work together.
I have been working with Mandy for just under a year, and she is brilliant. Mandy is patient and understanding, she brings a relaxed style to her coaching, and challenges me in an extremely supportive way. The coaching sessions have increased my self-awareness, and I feel more
empowered and focused in working towards my goals and objectives. I thoroughly enjoy working with Mandy and I would recommend her coaching services particularly to people in their 20s who want to approach their life and work with more intention, focus and clarity.
Mandy is the warmest and most intuitive coach I have had the pleasure to work with. She listens to everything you say and don’t say, helps you to clarify your goal and then to unpack your way to an action plan to help you achieve it. I highly recommend working with her if you want to get out of your own way and achieve your goals.
I have loved working with Mandy and have looked forward to each session with her. Mandy is always very present in our sessions and her direct, but kind approach has been just what I needed to help me set goals and keep on track in achieving them.
Mandy cares about how she coaches and will not leave a stone unturned, she is curious, reflective and helpful in challenging blocks and will support you to overcome your limiting beliefs. Mandy does not shy away from difficult conversations, but she always shows a high level of care.
Mandy has supported me to achieve my goals and isn’t afraid to challenge me, which has been really useful as I know she won’t accept the excuses I may have been telling myself! Being coached by her has helped me to stay motivated and focused on what I need to do in order to make changes in my life and I would not have come so far without her.
She has really helped me to see the value in breaking down the whole into smaller, more manageable tasks. By motivating me into achieving the smaller tasks, one by one, Mandy has helped my confidence grow greatly.
My whole experience of coaching with Mandy has been positive, wonderfully challenging and most definitely life and career changing! Thank you
