About The Results Agency
Hi there,
Thanks for visiting the Results Agency website - I hope you'll find lots of useful information about whole life coaching, success, fulfilment, well-being and holistic career planning here.
My name is Helen Ross-Hamilton and I'm the founder and owner of The Results Agency. And the designer of the Results Agency "Whole Life" coaching approach.
The most important thing about life or executive coaching is the relationship between you and your coach. So here's a bit about my background and experience and where I'm coming from as a holistic life coach, so that you can feel comfortable in making that first step of getting in touch.
About me
It's been a varied career so far! I've had the full "corporate experience" working with technology in City investment banks for 12 years. (Training, managing support teams, procurement, IT project management & change management).
Which means dealing with all the issues surrounding being a successful woman in a man's world, corporate "life", office politics, the career ladder, etc.
And all the while being sure that there must be more to life than this!!
Seeking fulfillment, in 1996, I started training and working part-time as a counsellor. I knew then that helping others find healing, growth and a joyful life was the "more" I'd been searching for.
Back in Scotland, I combined IT project management for the NHS with working in private practice as a counsellor and with voluntary agencies.
In 2001 I started a 6 month maternity career break - which lasted 2 years!!
I learnt a great deal in that time about how tough it can be to go from being a competent, professional business woman with a certain amount of status and control over your day to day existence to being "Mummy" - feeling woefully unskilled and completely invisible!! The other thing I learned is that the journey "back to work" is NOT a journey back, but a journey forward.
I trained and qualified as a coach in 2004. Since then I've balanced being a mum with running my life coaching business - helping other professional women deal with the challenges of this modern world - and still have
fun, fulfillment and success.
The most important things I've learned?
- The only real success is success on your own terms and regardless of what anyone else thinks.
- Re-inventing yourself is not only possible - it's fun!
- It's neither necessary, nor desirable to do it all on your own. Recognising and accessing the right kind of help is a sign of strength.
