I have participated in a series of personal life and business coaching sessions with Louise Claire over the past 4 months, and in 5 group business coaching sessions over the last 2 months. The benefits for me personally have been immense, with profound shifts in my understanding of myself, and my personal development. I have a much deeper awareness of my behaviour and how I react with others, and this has benefited me personally, and especially at my workplace. My communication skills have developed to a level I had not thought possible, and I am very grateful to Louise for facilitating this change for me.
The group business coaching sessions have facilitated some very important decisions and directions around the future of our business, which would have taken longer to achieve without Louise's excellent facilitation.
I have highly recommended Louise's services to many people I know, and will proudly continue to do so as her business expands - Cathy Allan - Manager, Lotus Holistic Centre
I have had the privilege of experiencing all that Louise offers through her coaching. Louise has been an amazing coach with just the right balance of listening, prompting and gently putting the carrot under my nose to tempt my inner self to come out to the light of day and become free from all of my self-imposed barriers.
Her holistic approach really helps to work through the different facets of what makes us up. With this, she has helped me to peel back the layers of conditioning set down since childhood and to take ownership of my fears and inhibitions; to embrace them, realise the toll that they have taken, as well as the good that they have given me.
I have found that judgement is the greatest barrier to love and acceptance, not only of others, but also of myself. My coaching has given me a new awareness of what I am feeling and an understanding of why. This has led to a whole new world of enhanced communication, acceptance and understanding.
This put me in a great place to move on to relationship coaching which has invigorated my marriage and set us on a new path, where we are walking side by side with a committed and strengthened bond to each other.
Louise offers a great range of tools in her holistic approach to coaching which help to break down barriers and allow you to break free from your current self and become the you that you have always dreamed of. She is generous with her time and space and has been every bit as committed to creating changes in my life as I am.
Louise is an inspiring person to have met and learnt from and for me, the greatest gift of her coaching is that it lays down the foundation for lasting change. This is a gift that has, and will continue to, positively change the lives of people within our community.

alive in years! - Matt
"As a client of Louise’s I have experienced her coaching expertise firsthand. Eighteen months ago I began my first coaching sessions with Louise, with the intentions of gaining direction in life personally and business. The tools and techniques that Louise utilised in her work assisted me in the process of self-developmental growth, but it was her ability to have empathy and remain centered and focused on her role, that truly allowed me to discover my own path.
As a result of my sessions with Louise, I could acknowledge my strengths and talents that I possessed, to confidently begin the initial set-up stage of my business. As business grows, I continue to employ her services, as the methods used elicit insightful and positive responses in me that assist in maintaining a clear direction for myself. This process is incredibly empowering.
Louise has unique attributes that are a gift to her profession. She has finely tuned intuitive capabilities and a deep understanding of human nature. I believe that her dynamic and purpose driven personality will result in success. I highly recommended Louise within my own field of work and to members of the Hawkes Bay community. I have complete faith in her ability to provide a service, with authenticity and integrity" - Vicky
It never occurred to me that Life Coaching could help me and the road to depression that I was heading down. By some chance and I think fate, a friend gave me Louise's business card and I got the courage to ring and make an appointment with her. I wasn't sure what I was expecting life coaching to be like, I was just looking for some direction in my life, with a few goals for the future but it has turned out to be so much more than that!
When I started I felt uninspired by life, low self esteem, exhausted and most of all I did not respect myself. With Louise's holistic approach I have been able to turn my life around for the better, although at times it has been tough as a lot of healing needed to happen. It was great to have someone who did not judge me and was just there to listen and guide me on my journey. I have had comments from people about how much I have grown as a person and its all down to Louise and her amazing life coaching skills. I used to keep the fact that I was seeing a life coach a secret but now I am very open about it and find myself telling people that it is one of the best things I've ever done - I certainly never thought I would use the sentence 'yes I love and respect myself'. It has been a very rewarding investment in my life and I don't intend on looking
back! - Michelle
Louise has honestly changed my life. She has helped me open my mind, allowing me to meet my inner being, while at the same time overcoming a long battle with an eating disorder. Louise works with you and really invites you to dive deep into your inner self. Her work is truly life changing and she has set me on the journey towards a more fulfilling and happy life. I will be forever grateful for Louise's work and I wish I had started my journey with her earlier.

Beyond the scope of conventional coaching or counselling, Pimp my Life’s point of difference is in its holistic approach which recognises the multi-faceted nature of all people and their reality. This approach is substantial and thorough enough to create positive and lasting changes to the lives of her clientele.
I have been a client of Louise’s individual and relationship coaching services for the past 6 months and I hold a very strong testimony for the efficacy of her coaching methods as well as how the application of her innate strengths of perception, wisdom and compassion enhance her work.
My experience of individual coaching has been both empowering and motivating. I am empowered - within myself, to create and maintain the best life for myself and for those whom I love. I am motivated - to self-direct and take action towards my life vision and goals.
Upon seeing and experiencing the leaps and bounds in my personal growth, my husband also decided to seek out Louise’s individual coaching services and we have started relationship coaching as well. After more than a decade of marriage, and having reached a breaking point, we have rediscovered our connection and cemented our commitment to a future together through our relationship coaching.
The impetus to create a happier, healthier life is what this service provides and it is also one of the gifts of this work, to the wider world. I have first-hand experience in the ripple effect of Pimp my Life coaching whereby the positive differences in my own life, as an individual, flow-on to affect how I operate within my family, whānau and community. For these reasons, and many more, I wholeheartedly recommend Louise’s services to anyone who wishes to lead their best life possible.
I applaud Louise in her important work, and in her enthusiasm to use her skill in aid of others. Furthermore, I am enormously grateful to have had access to a service such as this within our local community. There is massive potential for Pimp My Life to affect real and positive change in our community. After all, every community thrives on vision and progress to culminate potential into actuality – and these are the very same values that are upheld by Pimp my Life coaching. - Nadia
I have had the privilege of experiencing and receiving life coaching from Louise. Her coaching method has helped me personally in such a huge way. I have been able to make massive progress within myself and the way I view and experience the world.
I have worked in the counselling field myself for many years and have had my own personal counselling. I believe that due to Louise's method of coaching one session with her is as powerful and effective as at least six counselling sessions.
I have benefited from her help and skills and recommend her coaching to anyone who wants to grow and move forwards in themselves, their relationships and their lives. - Karen
I participated in Louise's partner "coaching" sessions. I was dubious at first but I am committed to a life full of personal growth and development. I found the sessions to be well worth it, allowing my partner and myself to be fully heard. It was very helpful to have a non biased person to give us tools to overcome our difficulties we were having at the time. I often think of the "purple hoop" and to allow myself to smile and feel the love that drew myself to my partner in the first place. The sessions are not a quick fix and you need to be willing to work on yourself and reflect on how you communicate and be in this world and that's why I enjoyed the sessions and gained a lot out of them. It has provided us with the tools to establish a stable long term relationship. Thank you Lou and I wish you well in your future as a life coach. - G.R
My vision has come into manifest and I am choosing life with enthusiasm. I have completely shifted patterns around my way of being. Awesome tools were used and Lou guided me every step and held a safe space for healing. I have a much greater awareness of my thought patterns and how I am being - Vicky.
This process has been life changing. I really didn't expect such a change in me personally. I got so much more than I came for, I came looking for purpose in my life, what has god designed me for? I feel I now have clarity, passion, drive, peace and joy.
I came to realise that my emotions were shut down and I was doing alot of thinking with my head and not my heart. My communications have improved and I am sharing how I feel and not keeping it in and getting angry.
Louise is a very gentle and sensitive person who listened and gently brought me back to a place of peace - Joanne
Louise helped me to push through my resistance in a gentle way, challenging me to keep going when I want to stop. I felt safe and this made it easier for me to go through my resistance. I'm not so afraid of my feelings any more and I am aware of them now - Helen
