“Ann was a great help and support to me when I was contemplating a big change in my life and couldn’t make the final decision. She gave me clarity and context, which helped me put my racing mind in order. I remember one of the things she said was to pretend I hadn’t made the step and to imagine how I would feel if nothing had changed . That really helped me. I was also inspired by her own experiences and hearing how she had tackled changes in her own life. She is someone I would always turn to for Coaching”
Christine Talbot, TV Presenter and Journalist.

A few words from Biz Hub Members …
“I feel invigorated with new ideas and energy after each meeting. I have already found that with a few simple ideas put forward by other members, there has been an increase in clients. Everyone is so supportive of one another that it creates a real sense of bonding and understanding.”
“I can honestly say that it has been the most uplifting experience of all my business development projects. We seemed to gel as a group immediately because Ann chose a mix of people who compliment each other well. Their support and encouragement to overcome weaknesses, and their interest and praise for our strengths, balance each other very well. I come away full of ideas and plans to move my business forward.”
A little bit about Ann’s background …
