Coaching

Working with Carmanah helped me prioritize the important things in my life and made me aware of what was blocking me from achieving the success I deserve. She was amazing at uncovering the issue behind the issue and helped me find my own answers to the challenges I was facing. She is very easy going and a great sounding board. She has plenty of great advice, lots of stories and suggestions on living a more authentic and happy life. She asks thought provoking questions, and I always left each session with a head full of great ideas to apply to every day life. I would highly recommend Carmanah to anyone who wants to find balance and clarity in their personal and professional lives.

Highly recommend the 90 minute session with Carmanah. It has provided clarity in certain aspects of my life that I felt stuck in the moment. It felt good to talk it out with her as she knew when to praise and when to make a plan. I really appreciated her honesty through the session to plan promoting self-love. I also loved that she pushed to honor how I am feeling and let us sit in that for a moment. She was honestly a great partner to reset my mindset and reset how my perspective was impacting my day to day. 10 out of 10.

- Sophie Pickett, Life Coach, USA

I’ve had the pleasure of being coached by Carmanah during a pivotal point in my life where I moved abroad for work and also started a business at the same time. Empathetic, caring, curious, committed - her style and approach to coaching are truly unique. She was very in depth, she asked questions I had never explored and reframed limiting mindsets and beliefs that I had. As she calls it, she helped me paint “George 2.0”, the future version of myself that knows how to respond, react and overcome problems that used to seem insurmountable. She brought mountains of valuable information and takeaways to each session and diligently responded to my questions in between sessions. Her energy, positivity and desire to help me grow into my best self and live life with my values was evident from our discovery call. I would highly recommend working with Carmanah as her coaching has transformed me as an individual, a partner, an employee and a business owner.

I work in a high pressure environment, and my career has always been my number one priority. On the outside looking in, I had it all - high powered job, a gorgeous house, my dream car, luxurious vacations. But inside, I was empty. I was terrified to invest with Carmanah, but not because of money, or even time. But because I didn’t want to face the issues I had suppressed for years. I also thought that I would lose momentum in my career if I stopped to look at the other areas of my life. Was I ever wrong. There is no word or words to describe how grateful I am to Carmanah and the work we did together. It was hard, but she created such a safe space for me to explore and find what is truly important to me. Carmanah has a true gift. I’ve never met anyone like her. She loves to say, you have one life, what are you doing with it? It’s the reminder I need and to whomever is reading this, you may need it too. Don’t sleep on the chance to work with Carmanah. She finds a way for you to build your career AND have a life that you didn’t think was possible. I am overwhelmed by how much this woman has helped me. Thank you Carmanah. Thank you, thank you.

I found the session very valuable and Carmanah very insightful, she has a genuine desire to help and not overwhelm. Everything Carmanah suggested is doable and steps which I can build on. The session made me think and understand how small changes could make a huge impact on my life and what's important to me. I can still be true to myself and be the best version of myself. Thank you for your time, insight and suggestions, I'm inspired and will implement changes.

- Paula Rawlinson, Learning & Development Manager, UK

I’ve been wanting to make changes in my life for a long time, but I was afraid to take the first step. I met Carmanah many years ago and I remember always admiring her Light and Energy. Recently I saw her on Instagram announcing her business as a Coach and I thought YESSS! I want what she has. So I made it happen and I’m so happy that I did. Our zoom meeting was motivating and cathartic. We covered so many areas and I had moments of doubting myself but the way she explained things to me, assured me and lightened my heart.

I’ve made many changes, I’ve started stacking my day. Drinking lots of water. Doing my gratitude journal. Exercising. Affirmations. I’m diving into researching and ordering things for my business. 

My anxiety has diminished and I must’ve been carrying a lot of my fears in my back because the pain Improved the day after our session. 

I am Grateful for Carmanah because she has motivated me to be disciplined and I feel the positive changes inside of me shifting. 

Thank you

I was amazed how much Carmanah and I covered in our 60-minute wellness call. She had sent over a survey prior to gather some insight prior to the call and we discussed every single thing that I was hoping to get feedback on! As part of the action plan received, I was able to set up a morning routine that fit well into my daily schedule. Carmanah is such a bright light! She is super easy to communicate with, kind, respectful and I would highly recommend working with her!

— Ali Kreider, NASM Personal Trainer, USA

Carmanah is incredible. On our very first call I felt like I was talking to a friend that I’ve known forever. I absolutely love our time together – I thoroughly enjoy every interaction we have. Everything we discuss and everything she suggests for me to do feels so sustainable. I feel like she reads my mind. I don’t even have to tell her things and she just gets me. This is my first experience with online coaching. I was sooo nervous, especially because I’m not super comfortable on camera, but Carmanah made it so easy and all the butterflies disappeared. I don’t know how she does it but she always over delivers on every call. I could not recommend her enough. She’s completely changed my life. The investment is beyond worth it. Thank you for everything Carmanah. It’s hard to put into words what our time together has done for me.

- Private Client, Banking, Singapore

I would refer everyone to Carmanah! Her caring nature is at the forefront of everything she does and it's clear that she is there to support you as you grow in the ways YOU want to grow. She is professional, yet kind and loving, and is the perfect mix for a mindset coach!

Carmanah’s approach to her work and lifestyle is incredibly invigorating. Her ability in being able to build relationships and deliver results within a business, is based upon her personal values and natural style of learning, adapting and curating positive relationships through her curiosity of understanding individuals purposes and goals as well as the organisations and aligning these to her own values. Her enthusiasm to consistently better herself in both work and play, makes Carmanah an asset to any business.

- Sarah Hutchings, Talent Attraction Manager, UK

I am very honoured to provide a recommendation for Carmanah Mackenzie, who I have known for a number of years. I first worked with Carmanah when she joined our company as an intern. It was immediately obvious to me that Carmanah was something special, as she quickly took charge of her role and excelled in all that she did. Because of her strong work ethic, both technical and people skills and her ability to learn quickly, Carmanah was offered a longer term role within the HR department, then later was made permanent and only left us when she decided to relocate to the UK. I can't say enough about Carmanah. She's a bright light in the HR world.

- Dana Clark, Vice President, People, Canada

Carmanah is truly passionate about employee wellbeing and engagement, which has shone through in all the excellent work she has delivered in this space at Arbuthnot Latham. Carmanah is efficient, deadline driven and always a safe pair of hands to get things done. All of these attributes make her an excellent partner and all round pleasure to work with.

- Catriona Mackay Miller, HR Business Partner, UK

Carmanah is a real talent, creative, smart and genuinely passionate about people and wellbeing. It has been a wonderful adventure working with her at SSP Group Plc. She has got that rare way of talking that makes you feel comfortable and appreciated. I can’t describe in words how powerful and contagious her enthusiasm for what she does is!
