My A4e - Jane Mallon

Emma - just having a read of your blog and thought I would tell you my story.

About a year ago I was suffering with severe depression after my dad had several strokes and my daughter caught a viral brain infection, I had to leave my current job as both my dad and daughter were in hospital at the same time, and I knew they would take some looking after when they returned home. Well thank god they both recovered and are doing fine now, however this left me in limbo as I had no job had lost all my confidence and was lacking in self esteem something that was unfamiliar territory for me as anyone who knows me knows I am the life and soul of the party.
However there was light at the end of the tunnel, I was introduced to the life coaches at a4e and had a few sessions with them, which in all honesty I can say probably changed my life completely!
I was so impressed with how they managed to help people regain their confidence and steer people in the right direction to achieve there goals that I started doing some voluntary work with them, which in turn led to me working part time as a project support officer for the life coaching team which I absolutely 100% love.

Well that’s my story so now you know a little bit about me.
