I had a good feeling about Alison in our first session. Immediately, she helped me identify and articulate my values. This data explained why my 25-year career as a teacher didn’t fit anymore – something I’d found impossible to articulate until then. I felt challenged and empowered by understanding myself more deeply as a person and getting to the heart of my purpose. It was powerful!

Alison provided me with a framework that was immediately useful to help me marshal and analyse my thoughts. From the get-go, it was hugely worthwhile and valuable. During our conversation, Alison gave me incisive and frank feedback, wasn’t afraid to call me out when I gave a too-glib response and challenged me to think harder. The results were nothing short of remarkable.

Alison provided me with guidance that resulted in a significant series of breakthroughs – more than any counsellor, coach, or mentor to date – aside from my parents. She delivered the single biggest freeing question and piece of advice that I have received in a long time, which gave me my clarity bomb.

My philosophy:
Suck it and see!

You don’t need to commit to the entire six-session transformation.

1.

BOOK your FREE consultation call.

2.

IF you and I are a good fit and you wish to continue, you only need to commit to ONE session.

3.

You EXPERIENCE the validity of my approach before making an informed choice about whether to continue, no strings attached.

4.

SEE results like these.

I can say without exaggeration that Alison’s work changed my life in so many positive ways. Her approach is very practical, straightforward and step driven.

Alison was great! She helped me unlock my passion and drive and gave me the focus to move forward. Six months on I'm in a new job, in a new industry and I couldn't be happier!

Thanks to the methodical process Alison and I worked through together I am now the happiest I’ve been at work for years. I’m in a role and location that matches my newly recognised values and strengths, and I have a much clearer idea of where I want to head in the future.

Alison led me through a series of exercises that got to the heart of what I really like to do, my transferrable skills and identified job options that would give me the work life balance I craved. It helped me identify a path to change my career as well as rediscover my own self confidence.

Three reasons
you might feel stuck

Find an answer to each one and you’ll be 100% clear and confident on what’s next for you.

1

You’ve tried self-analysis, online quizzes or questionnaires, but doing so has left you more confused than ever.

If you are asked the right questions and have unbiased support to analyse, correlate and apply your answers, the right path will become EVIDENT.  

2

You’ve been focused on goals that leave you feeling unfulfilled, but you aren’t sure which goals would meet your true needs and motivations.

If you determine your unique values, strengths, passions and skills and use this information to direct your choices, you will pursue goals that are MEANINGFUL and FULFILLING.

3

You’ve spent time and money on incomplete fragments of the puzzle with self-help books, YouTube videos or single coaching sessions.

If you trust DATA to do the heavy lifting, it will fill in the blanks for you and provide a clear, consistent picture from which to determine the right next step. 

Hi I'm Alison O'Leary

I am a leading career and life coach, certified and accredited by Martha Beck.

I use the world’s leading psychometric assessments and in-depth data analysis within a proven framework I’ve developed to help professionals make clear, confident, informed decisions about What’s Next?

My methodology involves analysing the results of insightful assessments and exercises, blending their outputs and working closely and interactively with you to help you draw the right conclusion and begin development of your own plans.

As one of my clients neatly put it, self-help vagueness isn’t my forte — proven, applied approaches are!

What makes this different, effective, and highly successful?

1- I am active with you.
In the sessions I take comprehensive notes for you and then send them with a summary and added comments.

2- My system is down-to-a-science.
It consistently draws out anything hidden and leads you to a firm conclusion you can be confident in because it’s data-backed.

3- It is clearly actionable.
You’ll receive a document unique as your fingerprint, providing indisputable criteria on which to base your decisions and actions.

With me, you'll find

This is not for everyone

  1. I give an opinion.
  2. I will stop you going off on a tangent.
  3. I provide a perspective based on data.
  4. I am an active participant, facilitating the whole process to bring you to clarity.

Who is it for?

My clients are bright, spirited people who want to make career and life choices that truly align with their values, strengths, passions, skills and life goals.

They’ve had enough of feeling lost, confused, frustrated, bored or unfulfilled.

Instead, they want to discover what motivates and interests them and what they are naturally good at so they can identify and secure meaningful, fulfilling work that supports the lifestyle they crave.

Inevitably, the prospect of change scares them, but the idea of things staying the same scares them more.

What my clients are saying

My sessions with Alison were invaluable in helping me work out what the next step in my career would be. Through scientific based questionnaires and Alison’s incredible skill at questioning and listening she was able to draw out the relevant information and guide me to make my own conclusions. I would highly recommend working with Alison. As well as her professionalism and expertise, she has an infectious positive energy which really put me at ease and enabled me to relax and enjoy the whole experience.
Libby
Alison is brilliant. She helped me navigate a career change, get my CV in order, and was a valuable sounding board amid uncertainty. Get involved!
Scott
Following a successful but unfulfilling career in IT marketing, Alison helped me identify my passion for education. It meant I confidently took the decision to re-train and now I'm really happy as a world history and geography teacher.
Holly
After more than thirty years in marketing leadership roles within the IT sector, Alison helped me determine the right second career – one that truly aligned with my values, strengths and motivation. I am now Director of Income Generation and Marketing for a Children’s Hospice. Who’d have thought that possible but as Alison will tell you, once you start aligning your life to your values, skills and passions, everything just sort of falls into place.
Jeremy
For me, writing is everything. I can honestly say that it is my ‘raison d’être’. But I didn’t know any of this before I started working with Alison. Once I knew, we met regularly to keep me on track and it culminated in my first book, The Clapback, being published by Hodder and Stoughton as part of a two-book deal! For anyone fortunate enough to become a client of Alison’s, get ready because you are about to realise what makes you happy and I say this with zero exaggeration – your life is about to get infinitely better!
Elijah
After two disastrous career decisions I worked with Alison and it was the best decision I’ve made in years! Through a number of exercises, tests and homework I now have a much clearer picture of where I should be and what I should be doing. It’s a huge leap forward for me and I couldn’t have done it without Alison’s help. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
Chris
My personal coaching journey actually saw some big changes: I moved cities and left my senior position to become a freelancer and then launch my own business. Alison used a tool bag of techniques and exercises that helped me understand my own values and motivations, and with understanding came control. Ultimately, the realisations I came to meant my decisions were better informed.
Austin
For me Alison is the best kind of fairy godmother. She won’t wave a magic wand and give you an impractical pair of glass slippers. Instead she will give you the tools to create and build your own path to your own happiness. Working with Alison really helped me to explore how I think and how I can create a happy future for myself. It’s an exciting and challenging process that has fabulous outcomes.

Questions you may have

It’s designed to bring you to a clear, confident conclusion on What Next?

Using scientifically-backed assessments and proven exercises, the programme draws out your unique personal data so we can analyse and determine your ideal career and life criteria, build your exclusive blueprint and use it to help you reach a distinct answer that you can trust.  

You also get to road test the process, so you can experience how it works for you before you commit to the full programme.

Fear not, I am there to guide you through it. I help you understand, interpret and apply your unique data so you make choices that play to your natural abilities, interests and drive and lead to personal fulfilment and happiness.

Yes. As long as you show up and give the assessments and exercises your full attention, you’ll finish with a firm conclusion and next steps so that you can take action. 

If you’re driven to seek a fulfilling change in your career and life, Yes!

This programme is all about you. I help you understand and celebrate who you really are, what motivates you and what you’re talented at, and use this information to direct your ideas and choices. It’s an enlightening, engaging, fun-filled and confidence-boosting ride.

It’s the commitment of one single 1-hour session.

You’ll get comprehensive notes and follow up actions from me afterwards, and a 15-minute follow up call a week later to discuss any reflections or questions you have about the output from your session, before you decide if you want to continue.

We will dive into the results of an assessment I’ve guided you to take, or I’ll facilitate you through a structured exercise. With each, I’ll ask you questions, challenge your thinking, give a perspective on your data and help you draw out insights to nail down related career and lifestyle criteria that’s personal to you. It’s an interactive and enjoyable process that leaves you with a heightened understanding of yourself and your requirements, some of which you’re likely to be surprised by!  

The initial commitment of one single coaching session covers 2 hours of my time. This includes a 1-hour coaching session, comprehensive session notes and follow up actions from me afterwards, and a 15-minute follow up call.

The full programme secures 10 hours of my time. This includes six 1-hour coaching sessions, detailed written notes and your unique ideal career and life criteria blueprint.

Though six coaching sessions we undertake a holistic 360-degree analysis of your values, strengths, skills, passions and personality.

We develop a unique and personal picture of your ideal career and life criteria, based on what motivates and interests you, and what you’re naturally good at.

We then use this information to brainstorm right-fit ideas, direct your research and ultimately help you make a clear, confident, informed decision about What Next? that feels exciting, energising and right for you.

Specifically, we cover:

Stage 1: Building your ideal career and life criteria

  • Identify your personal values
  • Discover your natural strengths
  • Determine your personality profile
  • Map your transferable skills
  • Recognise your passions

Stage 2: Determining the right path

  • Examine and interpret the recurring themes
  • Brainstorm correlating career and lifestyle ideas
  • Research right-fit roles
  • Come to a clear conclusion and determine next steps
