ABOUT ME
Elizabeth Hall
The past six decades of my life have led me on an interesting and challenging journey, encountering deep loss through divorce and death, single parenting, overcoming cancer and several other life changing transitions. This all forced me to reassess my life and face who I am. Overcoming my sense of inadequacy and doing the inner work necessary to find worth and purpose has been the most empowering achievement of my life. Through identifying my beliefs, values, my strengths, and passions, I have found hope and renewed vision. Now being able to help others find purpose and fulfilment in their own lives helps me feel my own struggles were not in vain and that nothing in our lives is wasted.
My working background could not be more diverse. I initially qualified and worked as a radiographer before spending many years as a full-time wife and mother. My changed circumstances, forced me back to work: initially in a new career in Clinical Research for a few years, before becoming an executive PA to a CEO in a financial company for many years. Being exposed to corporate life was stimulating and inspiring. The many varied skills I learnt during this time were invaluable.
Throughout this time, I was involved more informally in supporting roles of counselling, mentoring and facilitating in different situations, drawing mainly on my own personal life-changing story to bring perspective, insight, balance, optimism and possibilities in a significant way to the lives of others. This led me to coaching and I obtained the Diploma in Integrative Coaching in 2009, followed by Enneagram training, which has opened the doors to doing what I love most.
My three adult children continue to be my greatest inspiration as I have witnessed their resilience, faith and courage when facing some of the tough curved balls of life. My family has expanded, not only because they are now all married and have produced eight precious grandchildren, but I too found love for the second time.

Are you able to recognise your strengths and talents?
Do you have limiting assumptions about yourself that sabotage your potential?
Can you identify all the areas of your life that energise you
and those that don’t?
MY APPROACH
Coaching, Enneagram, Workshops
Coaching - We all want to be known, to be heard and to be valued. I help to build trust and transparency so sharing at a deep level can take place and changes made are truly transformational. Nothing thrills me more than seeing an individual recognise their unique design and the possibilities ahead of them. This is where the magic happens.
Enneagram - One of the most useful tools that I am able to offer is undoubtedly the Enneagram. I am a fully accredited Enneagram Consultant, having trained through Integrative Enneagram Solutions and offering the iEQ9 highly accurate and sophisticated questionnaire. I work with individuals, couples, families and teams, both in the corporate environment or any group situations. What I offer is tailor made to the client's requirements and I am constantly amazed and encouraged by the results of sharing this process with hundreds of satisfied clients.
The Integrative Enneagram Questionnaire results in a highly accurate and dynamically adaptive report with which to start the process. Waking up to what motivates us can open up new perspectives of the way we act, think and feel and create a unique path of development and growth.
Workshops - I also offer interactive informal workshops introducing the Enneagram and more personalized group workshops for specific needs.
