Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working with my husband to refresh and upgrade my website. Full transparency — most of the hard work has been his! He’s rather handy with these sorts of things and generous enough to give up his spare time to figure out how to make it all work. Thank you, Fearghal!
The catalyst for this change? It started with gathering feedback from the clients I worked with during the first half of 2025. Many have kindly shared how our sessions have impacted their lives — and some have even recommended my support to family and friends. That encouragement, combined with ongoing professional development as a coach, has helped me truly believe in the value I can offer. I am finally feeling ready to take the business to the next level and begin working with paying clients. I now know I’m worth the investment clients are willing to make in my coaching — and more importantly, in themselves.
That shift means I want to offer a complete experience that feels worth investing in — not just during coaching sessions, but in the ease and clarity with which people can engage with the website for information and booking. As a result the new site now has more information about my evolving offer as a coach and mentor for parents, education professions and young people. I hope it will be more useful for potential clients in understanding what Caladh Coaching can offer them, and how they can engage my support.
Just last week a new client told me that she felt my website gave a clear picture of who I am, and what my approach to coaching is, rather than simply trying to sell a product. This was lovely to hear, as it is exactly what I am aiming for. Coaching is all about the client, not about the coach.
That’s where ICF Coaching Competency 2—Embodies a Coaching Mindset—comes in. It’s not just about techniques or tools; it’s about how a coach shows up for their clients – open, curious and client-centred. When potential clients come to the website, I hope they will feel that they really see me – but more importantly, I hope they see themselves.
I hope you enjoy exploring the new-look website. And if you’re also feeling that back-to-school energy — whether for yourself or your children — you’ll find it easier than ever to get in touch or book a session to start your new year with purpose and positivity.
