Kia ora, I’m Kathryn Sandford – Life Coach extraordinaire, well-loved wife, and super-mum to two young-adult children.
My first, of many, life lessons came while teaching:
Forgetting these life lessons shattered me when everything around me changed – personal tragedy, depression, stress, financial worries, and losing my job – not once but three times!
For years I found myself stuck, asking two questions:
Finally, in my late 40s I started answering these questions; beginning my own journey of discovery and learning. Along the way, it hit me. Bang. My strengths are in teaching and coaching.
I’ve made many mistakes and wrong decisions over the years. At the time I believed they were failures. But now I understand these mistakes helped me learn. I now see them as strengths.
Ever since then, I’ve been coaching others along their personal journeys. I can help guide you in personal resilience, facing adversity, celebrating success, embracing failure, balancing the demands of life, and learning how to love your life.
With utter passion and conviction, I believe we all desire happiness. We all strive toward the goal of living an ideal life. Some of us achieve that goal. Others fall short.
I support my clients through both success and failure along their journey. I always make it a priority to help my clients change and sustain that change.
I am committed to helping you achieve your vision for a better life. My coaching focuses around supporting and guiding you by providing the specific tools and techniques to empower you to embark on a journey toward living your “ideal life”.
He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened – Lao Tzu quotes (Chinese Taoist Philosopher)
