Client testimonials
“Working with Nareen has been transformational. As a CEO, I often felt stuck making strategic decisions on my own. Her insights into corporate strategy, team management, and revenue growth have helped me scale with confidence. Thanks to her coaching, I now have a clear roadmap for expansion, a stronger leadership team, and more streamlined operations. Highly recommend!"

How should I prepare for the Strategy Session?When you book the Strategy Session, I will ask you to share some information about your business so that I can assess it's health before our call to make the most of our time together. If there is instead a specific topic you'd like to discuss, I'll ask you to share an overview of that in the booking form. But no need to be overprepared - just come with an open mind!

I’m not based in the UK or the US. Can we still work together?Absolutely! I work with clients worldwide and can accommodate different time zones. We’ll find a time that works for both of us, no matter where you're located.
-
Do you offer payment plans?I don’t offer payment plans for single sessions. But the option is definitely available for other longer-term / regular support. If you're interested, just let me know during our 15-minute discovery call or via email, and we’ll work something out.

Do you offer refunds?I don’t offer refunds, but I want to make sure my service is the right fit for you. If you have any questions or concerns before booking, feel free to reach out - always happy to chat!
