"Kaya held the space so tenderly and authentically that a feeling of calmness washed over me. I felt safe and heard. My soul awoke from the deepest parts of me, knowing that here was a chance to come into the light. Here was another soul who could see mine and knew how to provide that loving space for me to shine.

My soul was new to this feeling and understandably cautious. But her gentle questions and guiding words helped me to understand what my soul was trying to say. She helped me hear the whisperings and recognize the wounds that needed healing. There was no judgement from her and she wouldn’t allow me to judge myself either. Instead I learned it just was. She gave me confidence that I could learn to hear my soul’s wishes as well. She pointed out that I already was. So I listened to my words and became mindful of my body’s messages during our chat. It was all there for me. She showed me that. She didn’t provide answers to my questions but instead taught me how to ask my own questions to go deeper. She showed me how to hold space for myself and how patience feels.

I will never forget the lessons I learned, the feelings that stirred or the sound of my soul awakening."

"Coaching with Kaya is like having someone you deeply trust holding your hand as you open doors and visit places in your mind, your body, your heart and your soul that you never even knew existed, or that you knew were there but had been too afraid to venture into.

It’s like being taken on an adventure – into yourself! Actually, that’s not true – It’s not like being taken on an adventure, it’s like leading an adventure; an adventure that plunges you into the darkness, brings you back up into the light, gives space to all that you are and all that you can be – all the time being surrounded, protected, cradled and nurtured by Kaya’s beautiful grace, love, strength and warmth.

I whole-heartedly enjoy the time I spend with Kaya on our coaching sessions. I find her aliveness and her undwindling presence puts me immediately at ease and feeling welcome – welcome to share my story, to pour out the parts of my being that are calling to be heard. I love the way she somehow makes space for me, for all of me, not just the bits that I like to show everyone, but also the ugly bits, the bits that I’m ashamed of, the bits I often try to hide. With her beautiful gift of love, she is able to see the beauty in it all, and in doing so, offers me the chance to see my own beauty, too. And I do. I do feel so much more beautiful and whole and welcome and worthy and powerful now since our coaching relationship began.

Thank you, Kaya, for shining your deliciously radiant light onto the world through your coaching.

From a grateful heart"

"Kaya is a divine coach, and an incredibly kind, emotionally intelligent and supportive person. She cares about and believes in you unconditionally.

Working with her has facilitated my growth, by bringing me back to my own light, knowingness and intelligence - building foundations for my own, aligned decision making moving forward.

To be seen without judgment and shown the holistic truth of each aspect of myself (even the parts I didn’t want to face) has allowed me to feel deeper grounding and integrity within my whole, and expanding self.

Kaya’s guidance has revealed to me the scarcity conditioning that has held me back, and her knowledge has forged new pathways for allowing more abundance/joy into my life.

Her sessions have brought my life more flow, ease, and understanding of how to make my work/business more fulfilling, bringing it even closer to my core values.

I view Kaya’s coaching as a form of mentorship as well, in communication and facilitation. Her workshops are micro versions of what I envision better ways of relating to each other, looking like. Empathetic, non-hierarchal, non-competitive, being held, being celebrated and deep respect."

“Kaya creates a sacred and safe space where l feel free to express my deepest vulnerabilities and fears around diving in to soul led work.

She gently and with masterful skills shines light on all the possibilities and doors to new perceptions fly open!

Highly recommend one on one coaching with her or working in circle seems to amplify the learning.

Sessions are transformative, moving, nourishing and fun.

Thanks Kaya.”

"I can highly recommend Kaya to anyone who has the desire or aspirations of living a more Soul Led Life/Work Life.

Kaya facilitates & guides from a grounded, intuitive, professional & non judgemental space.

She cultivates a healthy curiosity of the self that will help to navigate pathways in reaching your full potential. 

I have also found being within a circle/group both inspiring & supportive with a lovely connection to others

"When I first starting coaching with Kaya I had just been through a very traumatic experience of self hate, depression and anxiety. I had lost all hope in myself as a person and felt defeated. Kaya warmly welcomed me to coaching and straight away I felt loved and accepted.

There were so many events I did not want to take responsibility for but I came to coaching knowing I would have to share my full self. The love and support I received was amazing. I would always leave the conversation booming with confidence and hope in myself. Kaya helped to to navigate whatever life brings, to be aware of my body and thoughts plus constantly giving me the reassurance of love that I so desperately needed at the time.

At the beginning of our sessions, Kaya asked me what miracles I would like to achieve through the course of our relationship. I was sceptical to believe that ‘miracles’ could happen to me, but I was wrong. I am so much more confident and on the road to loving myself fully through Kaya's support. Without it, my life wouldn’t have turned around like it has.

Kaya is amazing, beautiful, friendly, loving, soft, caring and thoughtful. I would recommend Kaya’s wonderful coaching to anyone who needs these kind of qualities reflected into their life."

Lauren Brooks

"Kaya provided a space for intentional conversation with me that opened up new pathways of thinking. Her particular style of coaching is very empowering. Her gentle supporting guidance allowed all ideas, realisations, clarifications and answers etc… to come from within me.

The coaching realigned my focus and revealed to me more accurately what my true desires were for creating my own business. I gained a greater understanding of how my business ideas will relate to me and my families needs as well as how they will impact the world socially and environmentally. I left the first session feeling empowered and excited with a new found energy to delve into the process of creating my own business."

Bonnie Palm

"Kaya is a very caring, open-minded and sensitive coach. I especially loved the length of the sessions: to have as much time as I needed made me relax more deeply into the process and was healing in itself. I loved how we explored all of my issues in such a respectful way. Thank you"

"Kaya was always very present, and there was a tangible feeling of her rejoicing and being ‘with me’ when I experienced any ‘aha’ moments. She was always supportive, non judgemental and encouraging. She had a lovely but firm ability to keep me on track when I wandered off course. I knew I could trust Kaya and I felt very held and safe. I learnt so much about myself through our coaching and I really appreciate the opportunities it provided me with, to give me concrete realisations that have enabled me to make life changing decisions in my life."

Hilary Reading

"When coaching me, Kaya comes from a place of connection, unconditional love and regard. She has a incredibly empathic and intuitive way of working that allows me to feel heard and validated. She also challenges me when I need it and is able to stand beside me in the coaching journey. I have seen truly precious changes, through being coached by Kaya, in my intimate relationships and wider friendships and my place in my community, in the way I relate and in how I am able to view myself in a positive and affirming light . Working with Kaya has allowed me to stand in my own strength, to define my goals clearly and to look forward with joy and anticipation."

Sara Heritage

"I knew from the beginning that Kaya was a special kind of person. I knew she was someone I could trust and that she had done a lot of inner work. Working with Kaya, I learned that being ‘gentle’ does not necessarily mean ‘weak’. It can be mean a gentle power which is able to be expressed when required, not randomly. I also learnt that being honest in itself is empowering, whatever it’s about! Also about being courageous, making a stand for what I believe in, even if that means I have to look silly, not be as good as other people or shock people for a while, as long as I act on what’s important to me.

Kaya has the ability to make others feel comfortable, whatever their story. She is genuine, open, respectful, accepting, and willing to stay by me through it all, whatever it is. She does not make assumptions, but is very willing to ask questions to get more clarity, even to check it out a few times to see if you have it right. She has a particular gentleness, but through it all she accesses a powerful Inner strength which always shines through, and that is a great model for me. What is most significant about coaching with Kaya is her loving presence, and that sense that whatever she is doing at that particular moment is what she would most love to be doing, and that there is no other moment like this. She has a joy, an underlying stillness which speaks without saying a word."

"What a wonderful, intimate, loving and helpful session that was. Kaya exudes compassion, is very present and real and coaches in a way that enabled me to fully relax, knowing that I would be heard, not judged in any way and having confidence that I would find the answers in myself with her expert guidance and attention. I would recommend Kaya as a coach to anyone who wishes to understand and explore themselves in a very safe, gentle and loving way. It is a privilege to give this testimonial."
