Introducing Debbie Reeds
|
Hello, I'm the founder of Soul Sanook Coaching. I'm British and lived in
Bangkok, Thailand for about 6 years, I have now returned to the UK
and live on the south coast. I have a passion for living life to the full
and for helping others to do the same.
|
|
What is your background?
|
I trained as a Personnel Manager in the UK, working with a Building
Society and Management Consultancy before setting up my own
People Management Consultancy business focusing mainly on small
and medium sized enterprises. Some of my most stimulating times
|
were conversations with entrepreneurs about their future plans and seeing how a few
people changing their attitude could have a major impact on an organisation.
|
When did you go to Asia?
|
I had achieved a degree of success but hadn't yet found what I really wanted to do. I
retrained as an English teacher and set off to travel in Asia. Working for local companies in
Hong Kong and Thailand has given me a strong appreciation of cross cultural issues as
well as the challenges and rewards of living and working abroad.
|
How did you get into Coaching?
|
I had been involved with Business Coaching when consulting and became interested in
Life Coaching when I studied Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and attended other
personal development workshops.
|
What's your Soul Sanook? >Top
|
My Soul Sanook comes from sharing learning with others, 'ah-ha' moments, dancing,
singing, independent travel, beaches, sunsets, smiles from people I don't know and hugs
from those I do!
|
What are your qualifications?
|
I'm an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation and my
training is with the American University, CoachU. I've written about coaching qualifications
in the article 'Coaching Clarity'. I'm also an NLP Practitioner and have professional
qualifications in personnel, marketing and teaching English. My degree is in Business.
|
Why Soul Sanook?
|
I love to see the positivity and happiness that oozes from clients after
our sessions and I know the impact this has on those they are close to
and even people they interact with during their day. It's this rippling
out into the global community that inspires me to continuously develop
my coaching practice.
