“A fantastic and unexpected journey.  Jo took me on a journey of self connection, unlocking elements of myself where I was stuck.

I am so pleased to have connected with Jo and feel a massive sense of achievement going into 2024. 

Who knows what the next year is going to teach me in how to be my true authentic and powerful self, a person who has the confidence to take up and claim space in the world. 

I've been on a journey of self discovery that might not be visible to others but has meant the world to me. For years I’d focused on learning the right things to say and do to generate success both personally and professionally. But there was a gap and a sense of failing.  I can see now that unless your actions are consistent with your beliefs (not those learned from others), then you can't unlock your real potential and feel a sense of equilibrium.  With the help of Jo I've been able to explore, challenge and start embodying my true beliefs.  I know this is going to lead me to even greater success ! 

The true Queen of personal cheerleaders !

Jo’s coaching sessions are powerful. I challenged her to give me a takeaway and personal insight from our very first session and she delivered. I was impressed by her ability to flex her approach as my needs changed week on week, whilst providing a constant flow of support both inside and outside of our sessions.”

“Jo’s partnership is nothing short of life-changing. In just 12 weeks, I've achieved more personal growth than I thought possible. The combination of coaching, EFT, SAH, and all the resources is a winning formula. Jo is not just a coach but a genuine partner in your success. I can’t recommend her enough.”

When I started my work with Jo I was 3 months alcohol free. I felt I needed support to continue as the temptation to start drinking again became stronger. AA did not appeal to me. A friend of mine recommended Jo and she gave me her contact. Jo and I had a discovery call to see if we would be a good fit. I was very depressed when we spoke and what I found so amazing about Jo is that, even though I had never met her, she was able to make me feel held and supported. I could feel her genuine love coming through the phone. Needless to say we both felt our partnership would work and we went ahead to book the first session.

This is what it is, a partnership. You both put in the work. And hard work it is too. Jo is always available for additional support outside the weekly talks. She also intuitively messaged me to check in with how I was doing and that made me feel so much better. It is wonderful she has that intuition as it makes you feel truly connected which is super important to me. Her messages always came at just the right time. Magical!…

Over the past six months, Jo has been an unwavering source of support and guidance during my sobriety challenge. Without her invaluable assistance, I can honestly say that I would have struggled immensely.

From day one, Jo was there for me, offering her expertise, wisdom, and understanding at any time I needed it. Her commitment to my journey was evident as she consistently provided me with the encouragement and advice necessary to stay focused on my goal.

Whenever I felt overwhelmed or tempted to revert to old habits, Jo was right there, talking complete sense and reminding me of the reasons why I embarked on this path…

So far working with Jo has been uplifting as she is such a beautiful person who cares about her work and her clients. What I’ve found so transformative is the tapping that we’ve incorporated into our sessions. This is something that Is mind blowing for me as I’m generally someone who has a tendency to overthink & I’m cautious when speaking my mind to people, but incorporating tapping has helped me access my emotions and speak more freely, revealing memories and feelings I’d blocked. This is helping me get past blockages, past trauma as well as confront my insecurities. Jo is a compassionate person who does this with gentle kindness and a loving energy!

I started my journey with Jo focused on leaving behind the ‘want’ & ‘need’ to occupy my free ‘fun’ time with a drink in my hand. As a task orientated individual who gets a dopamine hit from ticking off goals, I thought “lets aim for 90 days without alcohol and see what happens”! I had no idea what to expect from Jo or indeed myself.

Then BOOM! The penny dropped! Life isn’t about focusing on avoiding something (cup half empty), its about focusing on what brings you joy and filling your cup up! (Stolen from Jo herself).

Jo’s coaching style has navigated me through some tricky parts personally and allowed me to give myself permission to stop, breathe and focus on investing in myself…. Something that most of us on the planet are completely rubbish at.

It may sound corny, but Jo has literally saved my life! There are so many of us who reach a certain age and start reflecting on what’s next and it can be terrifying, but Jo’s warmth, patience and passion for what she does it remarkable. A diamond in the rough, who I now classify as a friend as well as a life coach. Yes I said life coach! I have forgotten the aim of not having a drink (which I haven’t btw) because I am having way too much fun trying to find out what else I can throw myself at in stage 2 of life journey….

Since giving up drinking with the help of Sober Jo and the group program, back in March 2022, my confidence, wellbeing and outlook and life in general have gone from strength to strength

Coaching that started with a sober focus has seamlessly led to 1:1 life coaching, looking at goals and aspirations whilst managing fears and disruptive thought processes.

Together we have worked on my fear of public speaking which enabled me to pass a panel interview for a promotion at work with flying colours and more recently, the management of my nerves on performing.

If someone would have said to me 12 months ago that I would be competing in a UK championships solo event and be able to manage my nerves in the lead-up and on the rink and perform like I can at home during training and enjoy it, I would never have believed it. But it’s true, it was the best competing experience of my life and its all thanks to Jo’s support, mentoring, coaching and most of all her belief in me.

I am so excited for my next challenge with Jo. I feel like the possibilities are now endless.

Thank you so much Jo.

“Thank you so much for coming and doing such an excellent job of raising the benefits and options for a life of sobriety, the risk of an enthusiastic sociable drinking being a ‘booze bully’ and the line not about necessarily encouraging sobriety but being ‘mindful’ in your drinking. I loved the way that you co-presented with Andy and that he provided such lovely drinks, suitable for morning meeting, focusing not on missing out but on having delicious and wholesome alternatives as opposed to necessarily replicating alcohol with a like for like alternative. I am currently doing dry January with no intention of attempting lifelong sobriety, but is has made me rethink that, and to at least be ‘mindful’ and ruling out being thirsty before seeking a refreshing alcoholic drink!

I’ve had emails from staff thanking us for working together to get the conversation going about alcohol and saying that it’s been really useful and well timed. I am definitely a Gimber girl and look forward to receiving my first order of full sized bottles now the shot samples are finished!!

Thank you for being so open in sharing your story, this is where the real power lies.”

“I met Jo in July and her positive help has enabled me to stop drinking. I cannot say enough how her weekly meetings have been so supportive and enlightening.

I truly think that being sober is the best thing that has happened to me. I feel so much better in myself and I was unaware how alcohol impacted my life. Jo helped me to fix my problem and I no longer think about drinking. I have put into practice what I have learnt from Jo and have become more present and mindful in my daily life.

She is the most incredible person and has taught me so much and she has become a friend too.

I cannot recommend her coaching enough. It was the most fabulous journey.”

“We reached out to Jo to give a presentation to our team about their relationship with alcohol and how this can impact their wellbeing as part of one of wellbeing initiatives. Jo shared her personal journey and shared some really great insight into sobriety. Jo's honest and empathetic approach made the presentation very relatable and genuine. Thank you Jo for sharing with our Team and inspiring us to consider our wellbeing.”

“Jo is a fantastic life coach. She is easy to talk to, an excellent listener and above all is non judgemental. I felt comfortable talking and expressing my feelings with her. I was able to identify and release an emotional block that had been weighing me down for a long time….”
