Hi, I'm Rachael, co-founder of Dragonfly: Impact Education and a clarity coach in the field of education.
I help educational leaders see complex situations clearly so they can reduce stress, achieve balance and enable others to flourish.

3 STEPS TO CLARITY
Clarity Coaching has 3 stages:
1. The 'Why' - The initial part of the process focuses on you. What makes you tick? What do you value? What do you believe? What makes a 'good day' good? What do you want to have happen?
We will use powerful tools that fast track you to greater insights into your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. These include a full DISC profile, a values elicitation and my Wheels of Clarity tool.
2. The 'Who' - As an educational leader, it's often all about 'them'! Be that students, staff, parents, governors, the wider community, the government, the media - and that 's before factoring in your family and friends.
The problem is that even though we may feel very responsible for others, often that sense of control is an illusion. Through coaching, we'll look at how key relationships contribute to clarity or overwhelm and work on what can be influenced rather than expending valuable energy on those things that will never be controllable!
3. The 'What' - The final stage of the process will bring all the strands together by focusing on one meaningful goal that can make a huge difference to your sense of clarity and control.
We will work on concrete actions that you want to take and discuss how you wish to stay accountable and how I can support you.
The process takes 5-6 hours 1:1 and can be completed in either 3 x 2 hour sessions, a half day or a full day.
Clarity Coaching is £600, with a 10% discount for the half day option and 15% for the full day option.
This includes 1:1 coaching via Zoom or Teams, all online workbooks and questionnaires, DISC personality profiling and optional post-coaching accountability for 4 weeks.

“Through our discussions, Rachael has enabled me to create strategies I am looking for as a working mum. I have a much better understanding of my perfectionist tendencies and Rachael has provided me with tools to help me better manage these tendencies. Our sessions have inspired me to make positive changes in my life which will support both my career and family aspirations and Rachael has helped me put some scope and timelines around those goals. I really can’t rate Rachael and our sessions highly enough. She is an awesome coach and has had a tremendous impact on me.” Lyndsey, 2020
“It has been fantastic to have Rachael make me look at my life and finally allow me to hold a mirror up to myself. She has given me confidence to work through my issues with a future perspective whereas in the past I have been too busy dealing with the past and getting nowhere! I feel that it has been such a positive step in my life and I wish I had known about coaching before. I could have saved many years of going round in circles getting nowhere and in the process being unhappy!” Rachael, 2019
"Rachael is able to balance compassion and empathy and works by asking the right questions at the right time to explore issues which resonate. In a calm and professional manner, she helped me identify some of the reasons behind my negative and self-defeating thinking.
Rachael helped me view aspects of my life from a different perspective enabling progress to be made in all areas of concern. I have learned a lot about my values and thought processes and am extremely grateful for the self-insight.” Mike, 2018
“I have found a new level of confidence and knowing I have Rachael in my corner challenging and provoking the right thoughts and actions really has changed my outlook dramatically. I am back to my old self with a renewed passion for all the challenge life has to offer. I have also got to say without Rachael’s support I would have been overwhelmed by the challenges that I have dealt with this year. I would recommend Dragonfly wholeheartedly to anyone looking for coaching services” Andy, 2019
