Client Testimonials
Executive and Leadership Coaching
“As a senior people manager in the NHS Kaidi provided some tailored coaching sessions for me, which proved insightful and extremely worthwhile. Each session was tailored to what we identified would be helpful from the previous session. We used the time to discuss feedback, difficult conversations, career exploration, CV support, strengths, weaknesses, style, as well as generally discussing and helping me identify the leadership difficulties I had been having and where I wanted my career to go.
Kaidi was supportive but also challenging in a positive way, which helped me to explore truly where and what I wanted to do.
I honestly did not believe the coaching would have much impact at all at the outset, but how wrong I was. Kaidi enabled me to be clear on my priorities and goals and empowered me to have some challenging conversations.
If you are reading this you are obviously contemplating coaching and I highly recommend you undertake this with Kaidi. Without sounding too emotive, Kaidi positively changed my life.”
Linsey Clements
Senior People Manager, NHS
“I am a Director in the NHS
Kaidi helped me to look at the same situation with a variety of perspectives and articulately explained various models and theories to underpin my leadership practice. Having tools that I could actually use in my senior leadership role was invaluable.
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Kaidi to anyone wanting to better understand their values, priorities and impact as a leader.”
Zoe Harris
Director, NHS
“Kaidi has been amazing at helping me realise my worth, strengthen my confidence, and embed the tools I need to improve my work (and home) life.
She is very personable with an excellent understanding of what can hold us back in life. With a great rapport we were able to work through longstanding, limiting beliefs to discover my true potential and values. I would (and have!) highly recommend Kaidi to anyone in need of support for a friendly but firm approach. It really does allow you to see the world, and yourself, in a different, more positive, light.”
Gemma Dunn

“Kaidi has helped me completely transform my work life (and by extension, my whole life!) by allowing me to discover my true values and ambitions. Her practical advice and expert knowledge has helped me develop strategies to eliminate the limiting beliefs that have been preventing me following the path that I truly want to follow. I highly recommend Kaidi to anyone hoping to reset their career and make some positive changes to achieve a better balance.”

Kaidi's unwavering support and expertise have empowered me to break free from limiting beliefs and unproductive habits, allowing me to step into my full potential with confidence.
Her comprehensive six-week coaching program is a game-changer for ambitious women entrepreneurs like myself.

Each session was tailored to my unique needs, providing me with invaluable insights and tools to navigate the challenges of entrepreneurship.
Kaidi's passion for empowering women shines through in every interaction, creating a supportive and empowering environment for growth. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her coaching programme to anyone looking to unlock their full potential and achieve success in business.”
Louise Ellis FRSA MIFST
Stakeholder and ESG Specialist, Founder
“Kaidi has been an amazing business coach to work with over the last 2yrs.
Having a wealth of experience not just within the coaching environment but very much in business, she fully understands the difficulties and challenges that any new business faces. Kaidi has an understanding yet challenging way which in turn holds me accountable to delivering on the outcomes of our coaching sessions and has undoubtedly helped accelerate the growth of my business.
The fact that my business has grown so quickly is testament to the time I have spent with Kaidi sharing the day to day and longer term difficulties and also the many positives as we have gone on this journey together.
For those of you considering a business or life coach, or a coach for your business and its wider team, I cannot recommend Kaidi enough."
Simon Knight
Managing Director, Radnor Hills
“I've recently worked with Kaidi as I am too on my own coaching journey, and in process of training for an ILM Level 7; after many years in Senior Leadership roles, I wanted to upscale my own business skills, though this came at a time when unintentionally there were many other changes in my life. I found Kaidi to be a fantastic coach, with a huge wealth of knowledge and experience in senior roles within business. She is a great, empathetic listener, yet not afraid to take a more directive approach when needed. And even better, she makes the process fun and enjoyable, with clearly practical tools. I recommend everyone hire a coach at some stage in their career, and even more, I would highly recommend Kaidi."
Serena Giggins
Consultant
“Working with UK Coach Training has been so helpful in more ways than I ever imagined before my 3 sessions with Kaidi. Having an independent but very personable sounding board to discuss my 'head jumble' about business and life related topics has been just what I needed at this stage of my life. Kaidi is a still voice of calm, providing thought provoking tips and strategies and our discussions have been both philosophical and fun and sometimes uncomfortable (in a good way). It's been invaluable support and really helped my own decision making process and confidence. Thank you!"
Maggy Harris
Brand Consultant, BlueSkye Licensing
“I used Kaidi to help myself and my business hit a goal and help understand how my inputs can achieve a desired output. She was amazing. Helpful, available and professional, nothing seemed too much effort for her and it was delivered in a hugely coherent and empathetic way. Can't recommend highly enough"
James Savage BA Hons, CeMAP
Owner and Mortgage Adviser, J Savage Financial
“Kaidi's approach is both empathetic and insightful. She took the time to understand my unique circumstances and challenges, making me feel heard and valued.
Kaidi provided a fresh perspective, enabling me to see my accomplishments in a new light and identify actionable steps for continued success.
I appreciated Kaidi's supportive and encouraging demeanor, making our sessions both productive and enjoyable."

Gee
Lawyer
“I highly recommend Kaidi at Synergise Coaching. She uses honesty, and empathy to help you identify your goals, and explore how to achieve them. Kaidi has helped me to dream bigger, and have confidence in my ability to achieve my goals."
Alice Lewis
“I had monthly transformative sessions with Kaidi. I had a PhD place however my lack of confidence was preventing me from progressing. The skills I learned from coaching really changed the relationship I have with my thought processes, enabling me to better identify negative self-talk and limiting beliefs, then develop healthier mental habits. The impact has been striking. I now take on more ambitious challenges and have better ways to cope with, and learn from, failure. I also developed an independent voice. The cherry on the cake is that I've started saying yes to opportunities, e.g. being interviewed on TV about my research. Without Kaidi's support and skills, I would not have made this personal progress and my research would be less impactful. Thank you, and I cannot recommend Kaidi enough."
Emily
PhD student
“I found the PQ training so valuable, I would highly recommend it. Having a mental fitness programme was so intriguing and something that I have now built into my everyday life. It helped me to support positive habit building over short periods each day with the guidance of the app. I also found that it allowed me to develop a mindful curiosity about myself and a framework to overcome challenges (Saboteurs) that had for years, been holding me back. The app is so easy to use and with the support of my amazing coach Kaidi and my Pod I was able to stay on track and feel motivated to complete the 6 weeks."
