“It is so worth it! Zero regrets! I would do it again! I really went in thinking this is for me, my gift to myself and I can definitely confirm that it doesn't just end after six months. You come out with such a varied toolkit of techniques that you can use and I just think you can't put a price on that. I think everybody should go through this programme!”

“I felt something missing… I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I wanted something that was going to create a sense of change… a connection to who I am and what I would like to be… I had a lot of self-limiting beliefs… I was living automatically, instead of with purpose… As a result of taking part, if challenges come up I can overcome them, I have the tools and resources to work through it. Communication with people around me is better… I have more clarity… I can see what I need to work on and notice what I might have been triggered by before. Be curious and give it a try, it's worth giving yourself time and space…”

“The biggest challenge was myself and the patterns of behaviour that I adopted from Early Childhood… insecurities… resentment, high anxiety… internalizing lots of pain. A lot of stifling in my life has resulted in illness physical illness, exhaustion, paranoia. What's changed as a result of this program is I'm much more peaceful, I like myself… I'm much more measured and I have absolutely reduce my anxieties…”

"The challenges that brought me to The Chrysalis were speaking up and having confidence… Imposter Syndrome was loud and taking over my day-to-day life… I did burnout in the past… knowing how to prioritise ‘me’ was something that I needed to learn… I’d overwork myself to the point of not having any energy physically and emotionally. From the program I realised what I want to do and what is important to me… it's a safe environment… an investment that you do for yourself and self-care… so I would definitely say go ahead.”

"I signed up to the Chrysalis thinking it was a career-focused female empowerment programme, I was delighted to discover that it addressed whole life, identity and vision.

My objectives were to gain clarity on where my life was going. Finding myself at mid-life after a difficult period of failed IVFs, miscarriage, childlessness and surgically-induced menopause, I was directionless and suffering.

Because the programme takes place over six months, I had time to slowly, gently, gradually feel safer in my body and be supported to come back to life. Spending regular time with a compassionate peer group, with reflective homework, tools and the time to apply and learn from techniques (versus just reading about them), was the gamechanger for me. Victoria is a master coach and with a supportive group, I gradually began to find some light again, culminating in a personal vision – best of all I had the time and sounding boards to try on several different iterations, until I found the best version that fits this stage of my life.

Many one-off workshops help for a week or a month but the impact wears off. I write this testimonial four months since the programme ended, I still feel the benefits, peace, clarity and quiet energy from it that drive my life forward now with purpose and intention, and less effort because the confusing questions have lifted.  

My husband reports less tears, that I’ve grown stronger and have more joie de vivre!

Thank you Victoria!"
