“From the very first session, Dee had an intuitive understanding of where I was stuck and was able to frame it in ways that made immediate sense - often before I’d found the words myself. Her guidance never came as a checklist or a formula; it felt more like an ongoing process of clarifying my thinking, prioritising what truly mattered, and approaching my work in a more sustainable, authentic way.”
