A Journey of Profound Impact!


A Journey of Profound Impact!

My 3-year journey with the Coaching Academy London has been an exciting, enriching, and deeply fulfilling experience. The training was engaging, insightful, and remarkably practical. It has transformed me – I'm evolving, and as my own first client, I'm committed to continuous growth.

As I step into my role as a Life Coach, I'm confident that I'll make a meaningful impact, empowering others to achieve their goals and unlock their potential. The world is ready for the positive change we're about to create – and I'm honoured to be a part of it!

One of the best modules

It was a highly practical session which helped to embed the learning. Kiki the trainer was an effective facilitator and offered numerous valuable insights in response to questions and input. I didn't give the session five stars because a couple of the models were a little rushed.

It's a great course

A great course to improve self awareness and help others do the same. The skills I gained have improved my personal life and my management skills too
For improvement purposes:
I only wish besides talking about how to deal with limiting beliefs they provided opportunities to practice eliciting and dealing with them in a safe environment without the danger of causing psychological harm when done wrong

Are you looking to stimulate your brain and help others?

Meeting a great community of people was one of the highlights of the Corporate and Executive Coaching.
The majority of the Accelerator Sessions were stimulating, thought provoking and helpful. They offered an abundance of tools that could be used to support in coaching sessions.
The Qualifications and Support teams at TCA were fantastic to responding to queries in a very time-efficient manner. Thank you

The Neuroscience Coaching course was a really engaging and enriching experience. What truly stood out for me was the trainer, Lisa: her facilitation skills are exceptional. She has a rare ability to make complex neuroscience concepts feel approachable and relevant, creating a learning environment that feels both accessible and stimulating.

The workshop itself was well structured, with a clear flow and a good mix of theory and application. As someone with a basic grounding in neuroscience, I would have loved to see slightly more in-depth material within the handouts: perhaps some additional optional content for those wanting to go a bit deeper beyond the reading list.

That said, the overall experience was very positive, and I left feeling inspired and better equipped to integrate neuroscience insights into my coaching practice. Thank you, Lisa, for delivering such a valuable and thoughtfully facilitated course.
