Mentoring Testimonials:
“It really helped me gather my scattered thoughts and refocus on what is important to me.”
“A wonderful mentor, Sophie shares her knowledge with such kindness and openness; in all our sessions together, I felt she really listened and understood me, even catching up on things I left unsaid. Her insight and ability to offer new perspective allowed me to unlock many of the blockages that were suppressing my creative ability. I warmly recommend her.”
Professional vocalist and Masters student at the Royal Conservatoire Scotland
“Sophie has helped me to achieve more than I thought possible by her support and encouragement. Her openness and sharing of her experiences from her successful musical career are invaluable. Sophie manages to tune in to your needs and has helped me to be more confident and creative in my own capabilities. Talented, inspiring and a lovely person!”
Professional vocalist and Arts Council of England funding recipient
“Realising that you are enough, how to live in the moment that actually is, and being finally happy with that – you drilled that into me like a mantra and it’s stuck with me”
