Testimonials from clients & collaborators
"Astra's work is outstanding. An exploration with a deepness beyond explanation and literally so complex that words can't put it.
Like, not from this planet - almost like a psychedelic experience."
IRINA
"I felt totally safe to open up about issues I've not spoken about in some time and felt that talking with Astra really helped resolve them for me. Cannot recommend them enough.”
SOPHIE
"Astra created space for all of me to simply be, and the deep trust & states of safety I felt guided me to a newfound depth of release in such an empowering way."
DESI
"Astra gave me the tools I needed to create sustainable, actionable and positive changes in my mindset in a safe space."
TRACEY
"Astra's programme changed my idea of what a relationship should be. Before I would hang onto one person and start thinking "this could be the one" straight away. Now I'm more relaxed; I want to explore, see who’s out there, and I'm more open to what might happen."
GILLIAN
"I didn't expect the course to be so deep; some of it really blew my mind. Astra provides such a safe space to talk about these things and it helped me open up. Now, I'm dealing with things differently in my relationship, actually talking about topics and not thinking I'm a monster for bringing it up – I can say more of what I want, and feel okay about it."
KIRSTI
"Astra has a remarkable knack of knowing exactly what to ask, where to steer a conversation, and how hard to push to get the most out of me. They have a fabulous presence that makes me feel understood, valued and full of potential."
TIM
"After having a stroke earlier in the year, I was left with a large change of perspective but didn't know how to make the changes I needed to make. I was pointed in the direction of having a life coach and it's been the best thing I've done. Astra has been an amazing guide; they've been the Virgil to my Dante, helping me find a path through the fog that life felt it had become."
JAMES
"Astra squirrels down to the root cause of resistance and pulls me up from drowning in the detail. They have helped me identify my goals and revisit my values. And it's all communicated with such clarity and simplicity."
JOANNA
"Each and every session with Astra I have come away with learnings that I have been able to implement and that have made me feel even more psychologically resourced."
PAULA
“Astra is a marvellous, resourceful and intuitive coach. I felt heard and understood and guided towards what I need."
NABEELA
"Astra is open, honest, and willing to share their stories, and that made such a big difference – hearing the real-life examples of what they'd experienced, not just about sex or intimacy in general. Now, I'm much more open to my own sensuality, but also I'm more comfortable just thinking about things I would've previously considered taboo."
KATIE
"The programme blew my mind! I hadn't thought about a lot of the topics it covered in the context of relationships, even though I've done quite a bit of self-development work, so it was eye-opening. I now believe it is possible for me to invite someone into a relationship. It's shifted how I'm approaching the topic. Before, I'd just switched off the sensuality button – this course has switched it back on."
INGRID
"Astra is genuine, friendly and uses the perfect blend of practical solutions whilst helping you figure out the answer for yourself. Their focus is clearly on you and none of their advice feels prescriptive or rehearsed."
CAROLE
"Astra managed to turn my anxieties and insecurities into totally positive feelings, filling me with confidence. They showed me the potential change in career isn't a sign of failing but perhaps a transition to a new direction and actually something I really want to do. They were bloody marvellous."
RUPERT
"In coaching with Astra I felt empowered to own my story and integrate the different parts of myself (including ones which I hadn’t really wanted to look at like my personal responsibility in difficult career experiences and relationships) ... I am feeling even more whole and content than I have done before."
HANNAH
“Astra completely blew my mind. They deliver in such a warm but engaging way. The tasks were all super useful and I’ve learned things that will stay with me for life.”
KIRSTY
“Astra was key to the success of our event, and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others seeking a warm, engaging, down-to-earth speaker.”
ROZ
"Astra's candid style is highly relatable. I can honestly say it has given the business and me masses of food for thought along with practical ways we can improve our approach in the future."
ED
"You would be hard pushed to find someone who could talk any better around what is a difficult and sensitive subject."
JIMMY
"Astra was able to navigate the delivery of their session with humour, sound research and credibility, bringing their unique approach to an important and challenging conversation for many men. We would recommend them to anyone looking to have a serious conversation about this topic."
MIKE
“People kept coming up to me after your talk and saying how brilliant you were. They loved your passion, honesty and energy. It was a privilege to have you with us.”
