IMPACT In ACTION: Reclaiming Life After a Life-Saving Transplant
One woman’s journey to personal power after a major life event completely changed her perspective.
Challenge
After receiving a life-saving kidney transplant, this client found herself at a profound turning point.
The experience had changed everything - her body, her perspective, and most importantly, her values. What once felt important no longer did. With this also came the confusion: What now? What next? Who do I want to be?
She’d spent years as someone who said ‘yes’ too much, often showing up for everyone else, but less so for herself. Now, unexpectedly, she was forced to slow down, reset, and learn how to put herself first. Both her personal and professional life needed to change - but she wasn’t sure how to begin.
Action
Over the course of about 6 months, we worked together through a deeply reflective and transformational coaching journey.
This wasn’t about surface-level changes. It was about finding her voice again, the one that had been buried under years of obligation and expectation.
She didn’t need advice. I didn’t tell her what to do, I didn’t give her any answers.
I held a safe space for her to explore what she needed to do next, given that her circumstances had changed significantly. I helped her understand the profound impact her surgery had on her life. I helped her hear her own truth.
Together, we explored her current values, helped her tune into what really mattered, and built the confidence to say no to what didn’t resonate. She began making aligned decisions, rooted in self-awareness, not self-sacrifice.
Results
By the end of our work together, she had redefined success on her terms.
She’d made courageous personal and professional changes.
She’d stopped over-giving and started honouring her own needs.
And most importantly, she’d found the clarity and confidence to move forward in a way that felt right for her.
“After receiving a life-changing transplant, I decided that I needed to make some major changes in both my work and personal life. Kooks came highly recommended. She gave me space to speak honestly and openly about my feelings, thoughts and plans and she always asked the right questions to help me make decisions on how to move forward.
I would definitely recommend her.”
