About Me
I am a wife, a mother of three and a grandmother of two beautiful granddaughters. I have always felt compassion for those who are struggling with their lives and themselves and have tried to give them acceptance as I believe it is one of the gifts that everyone longs for – an acceptance of who they are.
Over the years, I have been involved in groups (caring for people in need) and courses designed to equip you with insight and knowledge about the way we, as humans, process the things that life presents to us and how we then live our lives often not knowing who we are or why we think and do what we do.
This educational and introspective life journey has truly enabled me to develop a toolkit for success as my goal is not to give you the answers to your questions but rather the tools, support and environment to enable you to find the answers to your own questions.
I am very happy to be a part of the New Insights team and to share with you the knowledge, skills and practical 15 session programme designed to transform lives.
This is what I offer to you, together with many years of life experience.

I started my journey of life coaching with Annette having no idea what to expect, but having decided to commit myself 100% to the process. I felt quite nervous at first but she immediately put me at ease and very quickly I was completely engaged and invested in the programme. She created a safe space for me to grow and found the perfect balance between encouraging me to be gentle with myself and challenging me to challenge myself.
When I started out I thought of myself as a fearful, timid person with very little self-confidence. I was so afraid to take the opportunities I was given and struggled constantly with self-doubt. I was already a big believer in self-development and had tried so many things to overcome my fears but with slow and limited success.
Annette helped me find the courage and confidence that I had inside me all along. She helped me see that the person I authentically am inside is the person I need to be showing to the world and not trying to hide for fear of being rejected. I have grown so much throughout the process – dreaming, thinking and doing more than I ever thought possible.
Annette is a kind and caring person and a skilled coach. If she can help someone who identified as a “mouse” to become someone who now identifies as a “tiger”, then the proof is in the pudding!
I highly recommend Annette as a life and career coach. Through our coaching sessions, she has helped me set clear objectives and I have found a greater balance in my life. She is always very emphatic, approachable and has a lot of insight. The tools and techniques she has offered me have helped me realize my strengths and core values which has enabled me to find a greater sense of purpose in my life. I was so pleased at the structure and focus of each session and I have learnt so much about myself during our time spent together. I am a more confident and fulfilled individual today as a result of Annette’s coaching

I am very grateful to Annette for going through this life coaching program with me and I have enjoyed every moment. I was able to open up and be honest as I knew I was in a safe place.
Annette saw the best in me and challenged me to keep growing and moving in the right direction. I can see a big difference within myself and look forward to discovering more and more about who I am and what I am capable of. I have realized that I can do so much and I don’t need to be afraid to try.
Going through the program with Annette has really changed and helped me.
My experience with Annette as a life coach was an extremely positive and fruit-bearing process. Throughout the course of the sessions, I was able to clearly define my goals and ambitions and set practical and realistic ways of achieving those goals. I really enjoyed the way in which Annette listened to what I had to say – even if I went far off course, she made it obvious that she heard every word and in a very impressive way – was able to acknowledge that and bring us back to the topic without me feeling as if I’ve said something silly or not really answered the question. She has an extremely calm nature, which greatly assists in making those she coaches feel completely at ease and confident to fully engage in the content and therefore receive the full benefits of the programme. What I found really eye opening to think about was the possibility of NOT achieving my goals, and how that would make me feel.
I was very impressed with the sessions I had and I have no doubt that Annette will be a key role player in assisting people to achieve their goals in life. She has definitely found her calling and I wish her all the very best in this endeavour!
I highly recommend Annette Carfoot as a life coach for anyone with an interest in self discovery and pursuing one’s purpose in life.
I was expecting a session with Annette where she would advise me directions to take to make my life worth living . She instead taught me how to choose my own directions and grow as a person for unlimited contentment. I discovered the need to set goals, achieve them and celebrate.
Since taking coaching sessions, I have gone back to music playing, studying, meeting new people, contacting old friends. It has also helped me strengthen relationships with my family and give a chance to new people.
I have gained a lot more than I expected from life coaching. This is just the start of the new me and am sure people around can tell that there is something in the air l breathe.
I certainly would not hesitate to recommend Annette Carfoot as an excellent lifecoach. Actually I have known Annette for many years and so can honestly say she has an empathetic and patient nature.
I have been for counselling before but was astounded at the new/different approach I experienced. Never before have I felt that I truly am going to have a breakthrough! I feel hopeful again and would like to thank Annette for her dedicated effort and time.
During the lockdown, I decided to try out the life coaching course with Annette.
I can honestly say that it was the best decision I had made in a long time. Normally, life-coaching or therapy was never something I thought I needed. I always believed that I was alright and life is what it gives you.
After doing the life coaching I can now see how wrong I was. Life does throw so many obstacles at you and some of them are more painful than others, some of them leave deeper scars and some help you grow. BUT – you can be the one to determine the outcome of those curveballs!
Most of us have some degree of self-doubt, fear and hurt that has held us back from what our purpose and reason for being here on this earth – even if we don’t admit it.
Annette has a wonderful gift in terms of walking through what life has handed out, she has helped me see strengths I never thought I had and taught me to let go of chains I held myself in – chains I did not even know existed.
One of my favourite things about Annette is that she saw true value within me and not only did she see it but she pulled it out and helped me see that value too.
I went from having dreams to reaching goals and the things I never thought id have, I do now!!
I would like to just shout to the world that THIS will change your life for the better. THIS is a real answer.
Thank you, Annette, for your compassion, your care and for cheering me on until I could start cheering myself on.
Thank you for giving me the gift of really believing in myself!
Thank you for changing my life.
You’re the best!
I wasn’t sure if life coaching was what I needed to help me reach my goals, but after only a few sessions of working with Annette, a powerful transformation has taken place in my life. Working with Annette has since been life changing. Her coaching sessions consistently provide fresh opportunities to discern the true nature of my life situation, to become clearly aware of where I am, where I really want to go and most importantly, what I need to do to get there. In just a few months, I’ve seen my stress levels drop and also gotten to a place where I am able to balance my personal life and career. I now am able to set myself goals for my future and with no doubt do I also know I will achieve them, thanks to the skills I’ve been taught by Annette.
I was referred to Annette by a friend. Having never been in a life coaching session I thought it was just another feel good episode, but it’s quite the opposite.
It’s all about you the person, the lessons are empowering but having Annette guide me through it all and constantly encouraging me to see things in a better light than I would usually see them helped me a lot with who I am.
Realizing that we are in control of our own lives has made me change my outlook on life and motivates me to consistently see and respond to situations differently with a better perspective.
What stood out best for me is that no matter what situation,obstacle or event we spoke of, Annette would always encourage a view point that is new and uplifting in a way that we are the ones who see the better perspective, we bring about our own change not waiting on someone else.
Thank you Annette
“I’m at a loss for words as to how much you’ve impacted my life, my career, and my relationships. You are so worthy of your weight in gold. You’ve given me confidence, clarity, and tools. I tell everyone I come across, THIS is what a coach should do.
“Working with Annette, I’ve achieved challenging career objectives, improved personal and professional relationships, and found greater balance in my life. Her techniques allow your strengths to be realized, your journey to be appreciated and a greater sense of purpose to be obtained. I am a more confident and fulfilled individual today as a result of Annette’s coaching.”
Every session was actionable, and she kept me accountable by assigning homework in which I had to practice using different tools in specific situations. In one particularly impactful session, Annette walked me through a visualization exercise in which I was able to see myself in 6 months, and that gave me a lot of understanding of what I need to do, and how I was going to accomplish my goals. Best of all, I didn’t feel like I was talking to a life coach, I felt I was talking to a wise friend. She was completely down to earth, and approachable and I look forward to working with her again.”
Annette is simply brilliant. I would highly recommend her and her amazing coaching program!
She has such joyous and peaceful energy coupled with vast expertise in people and behavioral patterns that make her the perfect coach.
She is extremely generous with her time and excellent at uncovering unconsious behaviors, beliefs and patterns holding one back.
It’s a pleasure to write this recommendation as the Life Coaching course that I had gone through with Annette has changed my life in a positive way. She is patient, kind and so insightful and the love she put into guiding you through the Life Coach course is amazing. It’s improved my relationships and work life.
Even if situations in life have not changed, by changing the way you think and deal with them , that changes your life. She teaches you how to breakdown and set smart goals and reward yourself for your achievements you make.
She has a real passion for coaching and sees the true value in you, the sessions feel like you are taking to an older and wiser friend. She motivates and teaches you how to find a balance in life.I had personally achieved the important goals that I put forward by the time course had finished.
The insight you get from the course is truly amazing and you have to go through it yourself to fully understand the immense value it will have. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested to try it for yourself, you will be happy that you did.
I have recently completed my Life Coaching Programme with Annette. So hard to put in all into words. I, like many others, would never have imagined that my life could change so drastically. What a wonderful transformation. I see myself in a totally different light. I am the new me.
I have gained so much and would never have believed this to be possible. With Annette’s brilliant supportive coaching I have gained inner strength and I know it will enable me to enjoy my every day life to the full.
Her constant support, guidance and reassurance made it possible for me to set the true value to my life with the ease of sharing my doubts, fears, uncertainties and to attain self worth.
She was my coach and at the same time my friend.
I have always strived to be the person I am now.
Thank you Annette.
Bless you
Annette was a fortunate introduction to me towards the latter part of lockdown. When I embarked on the program with Annette, I really had no idea of the enormity of potential and it is difficult to envisage without journeying through it oneself.
I found it challenging and I know at times I was resistant – it is so much easier to revert to old behaviours, but I knew it was a wonderful opportunity and I would regret not seeing it through. I was forever curious about the possible outcomes.
I am so incredibly grateful for persevering and for Annette’s dedication and calm steadfastness. Annette exudes patience and a gentle calmness and I often recognised my harried self juxtaposed against this idyllic way of being that I couldn’t really imagine for myself.
There were weeks I questioned myself, my commitment and my abilities. There were times I felt so overwhelmed with daily demands, I questioned my need to dedicate this time to myself.
I commenced feeling compromised by my own physical state, but week by week, I woke up to opportunities that came my way. It was hard to start, but as I celebrated each success or step in the right direction, the next came easier.
By the final weeks, my elation was spilling over. My life hasn’t changed dramatically, but my attitude to it has completely, and that has changed everything – my ability to cope, my relationships and my social life – I had been unwilling to carve out time for things that I wanted to do – I didn’t feel worthy of the time or expense. All my energies were directed into my work, business and my daughter, no wonder my social life was almost non-existent!
Instead of feeling overwhelmed or “not enough” I am bursting with energy, confidence and able to rise to meet daily challenges and crises – meeting them with integrity and maintaining a sense of humour and gratitude for those that do step in to help. Instead of feeling resentful, I feel gratitude and privileged for the resources I do have.
I am saying “yes” to opportunities instead of finding reasons not to and feeling such accomplishment for the tasks I tackled along the way. Being accountable (if only to myself) was a great motivator and I’m excited for the new opportunities I plan to embark on.
I have commenced counselling on numerous occasions which I never pursued, yet tackling from a different perspective, this gentle coaching accomplished what I had hoped for.
My work life is exciting, my social circle has grown, family relations improved and I am excited by other projects I have in mind and know I will actually do!
Thank you Annette, you are changing lives and futures!
