What People are Saying

  • SOPHIE BAILEY -- Practice Projects Officer, Royal Institute of British Architects

    “After hearing about Stephanie's work as a positive force for change in the legal profession, we invited her to speak at our annual RIBA Stakeholder forum at the Victoria & Albert Museum. The topic was diversity and inclusion and Stephanie was a fabulous speaker. The feedback we received was great and it was incredibly refreshing to hear Stephanie's perspective on equality and diversity within the legal profession and beyond.”

  • ANNE COLLIER -- Former Head of Learning and Development, SJ Berwin

    “The workshop that Stephanie ran for our female associates was very well received. She is a confident and credible facilitator who has a tactful way of raising matters for discussion without preaching or provoking. The workshop focused on strategies for success and generated some excellent discussions around the challenges the group faced in the workplace. The feedback we received was that it had been hugely valuable to hear that they were not alone in facing these challenges and to have an opportunity to hear how women in other industries had dealt with similar challenges and to share their own experiences. We will be running the workshop again soon as there were a number of women unable to attend on the day who don't want to miss out!”

  • ROSEMARY MARTIN -- Former Group General Counsel and Company Secretary, Vodafone

    Stephanie is one of the leading movers + shakers in the efforts to create better balance in law firms. Through her own personal advocacy, she is raising awareness of the reality for many associates in City law firms. In May 2012 Stephanie promoted, with senior in-house lawyers and the legal media, a symposium for clients and law firm partners to help bust the myth that client demands mean unacceptable working practices are necessary in law firms. By doing so, she brought together some of the people most able to effect change in this important area.”

  • KAREN BROOKS -- Senior Associate, Covington & Burling

    “Stephanie has a unique gift for bringing professional women together and is an extraordinary promoter of women in the legal profession. Her events are always enlightening and inspiring – I was so impressed that I invited her to speak to the women at work and her presentation was incredibly valuable.”

  • Legal Counsel at a leading advertising company

    “I enjoyed in total, but the time for meditation was really simple yet impactful. Understanding notion of 'intuition already knows the answers to deepest question.' really hit.”

  • RAISA IBRAHIM -- Senior Marketing Manager, DLA Piper

    “Stephanie’s personal experience as an in-house lawyer combined with her knowledge and research make her the ideal speaker for our programme. Our audience is as broad as they come and Stephanie is consistently accommodating to their evolving needs. Her sessions are delivered with empathy, enthusiasm and professionalism, consistently receiving glowing feedback from our audiences.”

  • Vice President at a Middle East based developer

    “It was a breath of fresh air and helped me reassess how I approach my current mental awareness/energy levels in all aspects.”

  • Senior Legal Advisor at a Big Four accounting organisation

    “Really enjoyed it, Stephanie has a very welcoming, pleasant style.”

  • Lawyer at a financial services institution

    Best webinar I have been to since I can remember. Really fantastic relevant content and impeccable presentation style.”

  • CLAIRE ALLAN -- Partner, Child & Child | Winner of Enfranchisement Solicitor of the Year 2012

    Stephanie is an absolute delight to work with. Her popularity stems from the fact that she gets results as she is able to depart from the prescribed script, modifying her approach as circumstances dictate. Stephanie is smart, insightful, energetic, passionate and has a rare ability to fuse the corporate and non-corporate world in a seamless manner.

    Her work, with women in particular, demonstrates how her advice and guidance are not only invaluable, but it may be utilised to provide leverage in any business environment - not only in the legal world. Her no-nonsense approach to problem-solving provides measurable results on an individual and global scale in order to extract the resources from within – providing vitality in all areas of life. There is no other business coach/life guru I would recommend. She is magic.”

  • SENIOR COUNSEL -- City Investment Bank

    Stephanie's extraordinariness lies in her ability to charge you up with the empowerment you need to make constructive changes. Stephanie's breadth of experience coupled with her remarkable intellect and intuition equips her with a powerful talent for discerning exactly the right blend of support and direction that is right for each of her clients, with profound results. She brings a much-needed fresh perspective backed up with years of experience as a finance lawyer. For those of us operating in the City and similar theaters, this mixture in an advisor is solid gold.

    More than once I have entered a session with Stephanie feeling overwhelmed by a seemingly insurmountable challenge and emerged feeling calm, in control and with tangible, practical steps in my mind that I have then been able to execute fairly rapidly. In two particular cases it was Stephanie who finally was able to join the dots for me and grasp the essence of a complex problem I had been struggling with professionally and personally for many months.

    She succeeded where other professionals had failed and helped to illuminate a way forward that I previously had not been able to see. That she succeeded where other professionals I had consulted had not speaks to the value of the holistic approach that she takes and the exquisite quality of her attention. This is what really sets her apart from the rest.”

  • Senior Manager, UK bank

    “Stephanie was very knowledgeable, concise but comprehensive and clearly very passionate about what she was saying.

    I love that she had created a handout for use after the webinar to be able to take learnings/suggestions forward into our lives for them to make a real difference.

    I really hope she will do another session in the future for other colleagues to benefit from, particular if the global pandemic continues to majorly disrupt our lives for the long term. Thank you Stephanie, you were great!”
