Bounce Back Better in Life and Career
Cork Coaching and Mentoring
Hi, I’m Mary, thank you for visiting my site and taking an interest in what I have to offer.
In a busy world we often put others first and it is easy to forget the importance of looking after ourselves
If at the moment you are feeling disconnected and uneasy that’s ok. Maybe things are not going quite right in your life, either personal or work related. It could be career, relationships, health, financial, work-life balance, or just finding it difficult to cope with life right now.
Listen to your gut feeling if it is telling you something is wrong. Life is too short to live a lie, it can have a profound effect on your health, happiness and how you relate to others.
We have thousands of thoughts every day, many of them the same as the day before and many of them negative. Through changing some of them we can help to nourish ourselves and create our best self and a life we want and deserve. We all have the capacity to change and grow but sometimes we do not have the tools or understanding to do so.
I work with people to improve the quality of their lives, reduce the unease, to develop greater awareness and a positive sense of self. How we experience our life is a choice, we can choose to live in a state of worry or we can choose to live with a sense of peace and possibility.
Don’t stay stuck, you have taken the first step you are on my site and hopefully you will make contact and you can start to make changes and move forward.

What Cork Coaching and Mentoring Does...
Some Real Life Cases To Give You A Better Idea Of The Challenges Faced By Some Of My Clients
( I've changed the names and locations to protect privacy )
Interview Skills: Gain Confidence and Get That Job
Mary Long is a seasoned HR professional and can provide one to one or small group interview skills training, either online or face to face. She will provide honest and constructive feedback and guide and support you on how to focus on the requirements of the job, how to answer is a concise and relevant manner. As your Coach Mary will enable you to prepare, practice and come across more confidently and professionally.
Conflict at Work
Jane says “ I found myself in an intolerable situation at work, where tensions and atmosphere were difficult to cope with. I wished I had handled situations differently.
Mary helped and guided me to manage my anger and frustration and deal with the situation more effectively. It has helped me develop a Resolution attitude rather than a Revolution approach.”
Redundancy
John says “ I was made redundant and finding it difficult to cope with, I could not see any light at the end of the tunnel, I was beginning to despair when a friend recommended I contact Mary. She guided me through a Career Guidance Programme, she identified my strengths and weaknesses, provided me with a professional CV and Cover Letter as well as guiding me in Interview Techniques. Above all she helped me develop a belief in myself. I am now happily and gainfully employed” (John, Mallow)
Marriage break up
Kate says “ My life was suddenly thrown into turmoil when my marriage broke up, I felt I was sinking and couldn’t find a way out. Through working with Mary I found the fog cleared and I was able to find solutions, I have now bounced back better than ever”. (Kate, Bishopstown)
Ill Health and Unemployment
Bernard says “ I was lost, had been long term unemployed due to ill health. I had really given up hope of every finding work again. This all changed as a result of a training programme I did with Mary. It helped me develop confidence and the tools necessary to gain employment. It really was life changing” (Bernard, Ballincollig)
