\n\u201cThis was my second time receiving coaching from Starfish People and I am so glad I went back. I received outstanding, high quality, reliable, professional, efficient, compassionate and caring personal coaching, carer guidance and CV development support. From the initial conversation, throughout the coaching sessions and to where I am today, the difference is so significant, positive and life-changing. I am so pleased I picked up the phone to Starfish People, I highly recommend you do too! I was truly heard, understood and the coaching was tailored to meet my individual and changing needs, making it a truly client-focused experience. See what a positive difference they can make to you, your business and your future, as they have done to mine. Pick up the phone or drop them an email, there is everything to gain from Starfish People.\u201d<\/p>\n
