Why does mindset matter because from a fixed mindset you will often avoid challenges, see no point in making an effort as it won't work anyway and compare other people's successes and feel threatened by it. Telling yourself you are not good enough, you can't seem to do anything right.


Self-talk is thought of as a mix of conscious and unconscious beliefs and biases you hold about yourself and the world. When comparing self worth to how well you are doing in your work can have a negative impact. It affects how you feel about yourself, your mood changes dependant on how well it’s going or not. There can be so much pressure.

Why does mindset matter?

With a growth mindset there becomes a desire to learn. To embrace challenges, and to see the effort you put in as needed to achieve what you want and also be inspired by others instead of comparison.


Research shows when faced with stressful situations and challenges, people who are more inclined towards being optimistic, use positive self talk, and more coping strategies .


Here is a clients feedback:



"I now recognise the woman I've grown into and recognise the challenges I've faced. I congratulate myself now rather than looking for external affirmations from my parents. I am proud of myself".


"I have the ability to transform my life and I have the inner strength now to do it".


"I have the capacity to deal with own needs and those of my family".


I have emotionalfreedom, feels liberating".


"It's like I'm emerging from a pod, my wings are still wet, I've not flown yet.


"I always limited myself and now I'm hopeful. Its now down to me to keep shifting forward".


"A lot of possibilities, optimism , fresh appetite for future and change".

6 months - "After my consultation with Glennda I was in two minds to know if talking about my migraines would help as I had suffered quite badly over the years. Well I have to say I feel as though a miracle has happened. I used to get them with the change of the weather and the way it has been recently, not one has occurred Maybe a small headache but has not a migraine that has resulted in going to bed for a sleep. So thank you for helping me Glennda, I would truly recommend this to anyone who suffers. It may not work for all but it's worth a shot". 2 years-"I had been suffering from migraines for quite awhile and spoke to Glennda about them. She reassured me and asked me questions about my migraines. Well 2 years on I am migraine free....woo hoo". ​ 3 years- “Still none “OMG” magic has definitely happened, thank you so much”. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
