Meet Ria
Certified Transformative Life Coach
My Story
My name is Ria Kaur. Born and raised in Kent, UK.
​
Having worked for several years in the Corporate sphere as a Chartered Accountant, over time I realised a large part of my joy and satisfaction in my jobs came from managing and developing the people around me. I have a passion for assisting and striving for others to achieve their true potential. This further resonates in my personal life, with my friends always reaching out to me, to have an impartial soundboard, someone to confide in or simply some inspiration.
​
Upon realising this, I actively sought out how I could make this my full time job. That is when I stumbled across the Animas School of Coaching.
It is with Animas, I trained to become a certified coach in Transformative Coaching and now embark on this journey of helping others identify the areas of their life they want to enhance, how this can be achieved. I'm truly passionate about all things around mental well-being and being in the best mindset to strive for success.
​
Life is too short not to be fully lived, let's get started!
​
Life is made up a number of elements, physical health and mental well being, family life, social circle, hobbies and interests, as well as career.
On average, an individual spends atleast 29 years of their life working in a career (estimation of 40 hours a week for 265 working days, for an estimated period of 40 working years, divided by 365 days (days in a year)). That is absolutely mind-blowing!
​
If this is the case, surely it makes sense to be intentional with that time and ensure you are heading in your chosen direction, rather than aimlessly where life or your company may take you.
​
Career coaching can help you with this. Whilst most corporate companies have a yearly appraisal and discussions with their peer group to set goals and objectives, all too often these become forgotten about and fall into the periodic annual cycle, alike New Years resolutions. Hence why, I'm keen to take action in this space and help you take charge and control of your career!
Where do you want to be in the next 6 months? next 12 months?
Let's make it happen!

Why Coaching?
Coaching offers an invaluable space for introspection and personal growth, with a wide array of advantages. It aids in recognising one's strengths and areas for improvement, fostering greater self-assurance and self-awareness.
​
Coaches can help provide their clients with the guidance and support they need to get through tough times or to make difficult decisions.
Having a coach is like having your own personal impartial soundboard, in your corner who will always do whatever they can to encourage you to succeed, even when everything seems impossible.
​
Some people may not realise what is holding them back from pursuing their goals. Coaching helps individuals to identify these areas and work on fixing them.
Coaching assists in setting achievable goals by breaking them down into manageable steps. This process helps alleviate stress and offers a channel for managing anxiety, which is vital for maintaining sound mental and physical well-being.
My Approach
The method of coaching is unique for all coaches, therefore I offer a free taster session for you to decide if I am the right coach for you.
Coaching is most beneficial when the client is responsive and determined to take action to make the changes they want to see in their life. Generally following on from our sessions, there is typically some homework for you to complete. This may be some form of self-reflection over what we have uncovered in the session or it may be tangible tasks which we would use as a foundation in the following session.
​
Coaching helps you take action, however ultimately the action comes from you.
I therefore do not encourage you to sign up with me if you are looking for someone to spoon feed you solutions. The solutions must come from you, through our sessions of exploration and identification of your goals you would like to accomplish and the actions you need to take to achieve them.
If you choose me as your coach, I will:
- Provide ACCOUNTABILITY
- Provide SUPPORT
- Be BRUTALLY HONEST (Call you out when I see it)
​
& most importantly....
- Be YOUR PERSONAL CHEERLEADER, motivating and supporting you throughout the process.
​
Making change happen is not easy and taking the steps towards making those changes can seem daunting! This is where I can support you - especially during those times where you have cold feet, feel negative self talk creeping in, or excuse creation kickstarting into motion - I will be there to snap that out of you and keep you focussed and consistently working towards what you want to achieve.
