Toyin Ajayi, Sainsbury's, UK I found being part of the group coaching cohort to be a fantastic opportunity. Throughout the sessions, I learned a lot about myself, which has benefited both my professional and personal life.
Professionally, the confidence I gained from the group's support enabled me to apply for a promotion, and I successfully got the role I wanted. Vicky's probing questions during the sessions helped me identify what was holding me back and how to overcome those obstacles.
On a personal level, I gained insights into my emotions and areas for personal growth. I also learned to identify my comfort, stretch, and panic zones and how to transition from panic to comfort. The vision statement created within the group now serves as a reminder that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.
I firmly believe that I have grown significantly throughout the coaching program. Looking back at the first session compared to the last, I can see a clear reflection of my personal growth and development. I am incredibly grateful to Vicky for her support and guidance during this journey.

As part of my leadership development at Sainsburys, I was in a Group Coaching cohort led by Vicky. Vicky first took the time to have one-to-one sessions with each of us to get to know us and to talk about what we want to get from the coaching.
The group coaching sessions were very useful to me personally but, I believe, for all who have been involved as well. The sessions included a lot of self-reflection, sometimes maybe uncomfortable situations, and questions but it has helped me so much to grow in so many aspects. We as a group for example, have defined a powerful statement as women-in-tech and it has helped us all believe more in ourselves.
I recommend Vicky as a coach and mentor, she has a great approach, it will help you to learn and discover a lot of things for yourself and will help you grow your confidence.
