For years I had a career that didn’t fulfil me and the thought of making a change felt like climbing Everest! This, coupled with a number of personal and professional problems, had a serious impact on my confidence and self esteem. Since working with Amanda, it feels like doors are opening all around me! She has helped me to think about my problems in a different way and continues to help me identify and focus on the things that are really important to me. I feel that at last I’m really starting to move forward with my life. Forever grateful Amanda, thank you. JB, Aberdeen. “I recently moved to the UK in search for a new challenge and greater opportunities. Coming from a very different country to the UK, I was going through one of the worst times in my life trying to settle in and adjust to the UK way of doing things. My confidence levels had hit rock bottom, my finances were dwindling and my performance at work was suffering. Hi Amanda. I wanted to drop you a line and let you know that, further to our month of working together, life / my perspective, is continuing to improve. The various exercises you taught me are very helpful and, little by little, they are 'becoming the norm'.
Many thanks, again, for all your support and guidance. AG, Contracts Manager, Aberdeen Dear Amanda, Just a note to say thanks for all your help over the last few weeks. My life was a huge bowl of chaos and I badly needed someone to help me separate the strands and move forward. Friends can help but you never get true objectivity. I was surprised at some of the insights you have about myself both positive and negative and have been able to be more honest with myself and how I can live a more fulfilled life. Thank you so much. Before I began sessions with Amanda I had been away for six months working abroad. After coming home I felt quite down and unsettled after having such a fantastic time! After only four sessions, Amanda helped me with a lot of things which were on my mind. She is a very encouraging and keen to help. I felt very comfortable working with Amanda and felt I could open up quite easily. I thank her very much for all her positive work and help. Many thanks.” MD, Nursery Nurse. Aberdeenshire. " I approached Amanda to get help with my weight. I came away having tackled a lot of issues that had been buried for 15 years. I now have a better relationship with my mother, feel happier about myself and more confident that given the time to work through an issue I will make a good decision. I now love being 'Mum at home' - no guilt - but am thinking of getting back into the working world for myself and not just the family. Thank you for your gentleness, guidance and keeping me focused on the important issues. JC “Before my work with Amanda I felt a bit out of control with certain issues in my life. After a few focused sessions I have a much better perspective on these issues. I feel liberated, refreshed, in control and far more upbeat about my life. Relationships with my family have improved as well. I now know that I can create whatever I want. Thank you.” JS, Company Director, and mother of 3, NE Scotland. “In our four sessions I have achieved all I wanted and more from coaching with you, Amanda, in that for the first time in many, many years I have rediscovered my inner strength, self belief and contentment. I have resolved many issues and now have the strength and tools I need to deal with other challenges that lay ahead of me.” Dear Amanda, After completing my recent sessions with you I am writing to thank you for making such a difference in my life. On a personal level, I have made a conscious effort to spend more time with the children and do more family orientated things and it has certainly paid off. We are all enjoying our new found time together.
On the business side I am proud to say that I have completed all my goals and it has made an enormous difference to the general running of the company.
Overall I am feeling more confident and more importantly given me the realisation as to the importance of family life.
Once again thank you for your support and understanding, we are all immensely grateful.” LS, Company Director and father of 3. “Before seeing Amanda, my confidence had disappeared and was beginning to seriously encroach on the day to day activities in my life such as getting a job, going into crowded places and generally having a good time. My nervousness was getting out of control.
However, after just six sessions, my life had much more direction and it was easier for me to realise that other people shared similar fears to my own. My work with Amanda has helped me to recognise the ease in which you can progress your life, relationships and career.” RS, Aberdeen "Working with Amanda was really helpful to me at a very challenging time in my life.
She helped me to focus, prepare for a difficult situation and handle the anticipatory stress in a healthy manner.
I faced some things that I had avoided in my life and developed better self esteem which has been really important.
As a life coach myself - I am sure I wasn't always the easiest of clients but I really valued the work we did together. I am sure that in the future I will return for more sessions". KS, Company Director, Aberdeenshire “……. you made our work together fun and enjoyable and helped me make a major shift and achieve something I had felt for many years to be impossible. I am so excited at the freedom this will give me in my busy life and I am now enjoying driving regularly again after a long and frustrating period of feeling that I never could.
I am also enjoying feeling a greater confidence in myself and my ability to achieve things.
I am so delighted that I chose to invest in that time working with you, Amanda, many thanks indeed.” LC, Teacher and mother of 4 “You are a very practical and insightful coach.” SB, Coach “Oh thank you, thank you! Overwhelmingly you are the favourite speaker of everyone--committee members and members alike! So I truly appreciate you agreeing to speak to us again in September! "Secrets of Happiness" with questions to follow will be perfect.” Events Organiser, Ladies Group “You listen very closely…... do a lot of thinking about your clients between sessions...… are an excellent Life Coach, clear, incisive and caring.
Now that the baggage is gone I feel lighter, freer and better able to respond to the opportunities in front of me.” AS, Company Director “I really didn’t know what to expect from you but you put me at ease straight away and were very professional in your approach, quickly dispelling my reservations.
Through our short time working together I have increased my confidence and my ability to handle specific situations that I had previously found very challenging and had presented real obstacles to me in my daily life.
I am thrilled to say I now feel free to tackle any such situations and to move forward with pleasure and delight in the knowledge that I can handle any such obstacles in the future.
I am totally delighted with the results of our work together.” EC “Parent coaching makes me feel more empowered. It helps me to focus and prioritise what I want to achieve as a Mum and develop ways of making things work. My toddler’s tantrums have stopped and now we’re having fun!”. AL "Our session on Wednesday was excellent. For me, it was something close to a breakthrough. The following day, I spoke to my boss in a constructive and honest way, better than I would have imagined. Her response was positive, my confidence soared thereafter, I felt as if a huge weight was removed from my shoulders. There is a positive plan going forward. Thanks Amanda, for being so patient and reassuring, you have exceeded my expectations from what I thought about a life coach. I would thoroughly recommend you to my friends, as I always want the best for them." JH (Kent), Accountant For me, Amanda’s delivery of the ‘Sparkle Seminars’ combined clarity of thought with a new angle on life’s ups and downs.
I met some lovely new people, and found the time very uplifting. There was plenty of food for thought, and guides to find more detailed information. S A, Mother and Veterinary Surgeon I found the three Sparkle Seminars to be a very valuable experience. Discussing important life issues among a small group of like-minded individuals helped me gain an insight into how I would like to develop both as an individual and as a parent.
“...fantastic questioning techniques”, “amazing answers”, “Amanda put us all at our ease”, “it really helped to boost my confidence and give me the conviction that I knew I could do it, whatever “it” is!” SS, mother and Magazine Editor |

Having come close to a breakdown brought on by unexpected life circumstances and a demanding employer I sought the help of a Psychologist but at the end of therapy I felt lost, almost stunned at what I had learned about myself. I struggled to move on. I decided to try life coaching after seeing an advert in a magazine and phoned Amanda. She listened to me intently and seemed to understand where I was coming from. This was so important and that understanding was the catalyst that resulted in a very open and honest client/coach relationship. Sometimes I laughed with her, other times I cried as I looked at my life and the mess it seemed to be in. Amanda was gentle but firm. She showed an immense amount of patience and understanding as well as a depth of knowledge and insight that at times surprised me. She taught me some really helpful NLP techniques and helped me to shift my perspective on life. To have someone like Amanda walk with me for this part of my journey was a Godsend. She encouraged and helped me to see things differently while gently challenging some of my unhealthy thoughts and attitudes. Amanda, thank you so much for what you do and how you dealt with my hopes, my fears, my dreams and my disappointments. I've taken a wee sabbatical, but I'll be back. Male, Oil Industry Professional.

I was feeling so stuck in my business and couldn’t see a way forward so decided to try life coaching, and was attracted to Amanda Wise from the recommendations posted on her website.
Many of Amanda’s clients were delighted at how quickly they arrived at solutions and were able to make great changes. I thought that was great for them but didn’t expect such quick solutions for myself. I had three sessions with Amanda and from each one gained valuable insights as to why I wasn’t making the progress I wanted.
The sessions were very helpful in revealing my problems in getting the most from my work, and helped me decide what I needed to do to get the best from my successful business and personal life. June, therapist, NE Scotland. |
