When I first spoke to Manisha about coaching, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I decided to give it a try and see where it led. Her approach was unique—she never told me what was right or wrong but guided me to reflect and discover it for myself. Over time, I began to understand my deeper challenges and the value of emotional intelligence.
The six-second pause she introduced helped me shift from subconscious reactions to mindful responses. It was a powerful realization.
Thank you, Manisha, for this transformative experience. I highly recommend her as a thoughtful and reflective coach.

Working with Manisha has been impactful for my professional development. Her EQ-driven coaching style creates a safe, non-judgmental space where she demonstrates exceptional listening skills and an intuitive ability to ask powerful questions that skillfully guide you to discover your own solutions, perfectly balancing support with gentle challenge. Whether helping with networking anxiety or developing my sense of optimism, she helped me recognise my own patterns and move from feeling ‘stuck’ to having concrete action plans and renewed confidence.
Over our sessions together, Manisha supported me to move from awareness to action. Her skillful use of creative tools – guiding me through visualization exercises and helping me discover my own metaphors – enabled me to see my challenges from a different perspective, leading to ‘lightbulb’ moments and sustainable strategies that aligned with my values. What truly sets her apart is her genuine investment in her clients’ growth and outcomes, combined with an exceptional ability to make you feel truly seen and heard.
I wholeheartedly recommend Manisha to anyone seeking a coach who combines emotional intelligence with creative coaching methods that deliver concrete outcomes and lasting growth.
