IT’S TIME TO THRIVE!
If not now, when?
TESTIMONIAL
‘IT’S BEEN LIFE TRANSFORMING’!
This is how I would describe the work we have done so far through the coaching sessions with Karen. I started my first session with Karen to resolve my work issues, but it has done way more for my life than I could ever imagine. She has helped me see my life and self in a whole new light. Values, Being Enough, Hope, Trusting Myself Deeply, Self Acceptance and so on.. Every session I walk out with a valuable insight and lesson that will continue to serve me in the many years ahead.

Karen Claridge owner of ‘Thrive Coaching’
Welcome! I'm Karen Claridge, a Master Life Coach, Career Guide and Motivational Speaker for over 25 years. I specialise in empowering people to 'Thrive' through my Private Coaching Consultations, Workshops and Talks.
In today’s super-charged, fast-changing world, people from all ages and walks of life face real challenges, stresses and pressures within their personal and professional lives. Without understanding their true identity, who we are as individuals, and what makes them ‘tick,’ it’s natural to be overwhelmed and feel like they’re losing their way.
‘Life’ goes past so fast in the blink of an eye (we all know how quickly just a week can go by) and what I know for sure is that we don't have to spend years searching for the elusive ‘happiness’, or meditate on top of mountain to experience fulfilment. It is in fact within reach for us all right now, today, we just need to know ‘how-to’!
Drawing on my wealth of experience and training with world-renowned Coaches, Tony Robbins and The Steven Covey Centre has given me the knowledge and expertise to teach, motivate and inspire people to make the positive changes they require.
My Coaching Programs and Presentations are designed to give people powerful tools, strategies, and ways of thinking to find direction and unlock their full potential. Thank you for considering me as your guide on this personal and professional growth journey. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
One of my most frequently asked questions:
‘WHAT IS ‘COACHING’ AND HOW DOES IT DIFFER FROM COUNSELLING or THERAPY’?
Coaching takes an individual beyond where they usually stop themselves. It is process-driven and ‘action-orientated’ and focuses on providing clients who feel ‘stuck’ in any area of their life, with the skills, tools and ways of thinking to live towards their full potential. A key aspect of ‘coaching’ is to create the space for clients to reflect on ‘what’ they want from their lives and ‘why’. The coach provides the ‘How to’s get from where they are in the present to where they want to be in the future.
Counselling is more content-driven and whilst time will be spent working on the 'here and now', the client may wish to focus on past issues that are currently holding them back in the 'here and now'.
Therapy is the right fit for addressing trauma and diagnosable mental health concerns.
All areas however can overlap and be complementary to one another.

can make any vision, dream or desire a reality.’
