The Association for Coaching (AC) believes there is something, or someone, to celebrate every day. That's why we are delighted to feature four members each month who have made an outstanding contribution or have achieved something that should be celebrated and shared with others.

Laura Garner

Laura Garner has been nominated by Bradley Solomon as a Member who has achieved something that should be celebrated and shared with others. Laura has been a beacon of light. As an executive coach she has worked tirelessly with leaders to enable them to act as the best version of themselves during the pandemic. She has run a Wellness group on Facebook and Instagram to help inspire people and encourage them to look after themselves during lockdowns. She offers complimentary therapy sessions to all those who request it and also helped keep a local business (a wellbeing clinic) running during lockdown to offer support to her community. All this while living on her own in lockdown separated from family and friends.
