Emer is wonderful human being, who also happens to be a talented facilitator, coach and graphic illustrator. You will benefit as much from her presence as from the wealth of knowledge she has to share, so I would highly recommend working with her.

If you’re thinking of joining Joy of Business, and are on the fence, stop thinking about it and do it!  Time is valuable but this programme is a really good use of it! 

Running a business on your own can be tough and it’s easy to focus on doing things for everyone else and not push through on the things that are good for you and your business – this programme really makes you focus on what you want to be doing, then provides support to help you get there in a fun and creative way (not the usual approach to business planning!) and being part of a programme and group greatly increases commitment and accountability – so things actually get done too!”   

Emer’s infectious enthusiasm leaves me feeling inspired every time I do one of her courses. I recently attended her Draw out Your Future course. It was a fabulous six weeks.

I learned a lot, got to play about with drawings, and be supported and encouraged by an amazing group of like-minded individuals. Goals I never knew I had appeared from the sea of infinite possibilities! I did her Secrets of Simple Graphics course a couple of years ago and it changed the way I write, teach and train. She makes everything so fun and accessible. Just brilliant.

I knew you had been successfully organising open sessions for several years, and I wanted to learn from your experience. What was particularly helpful was having the “mind map” done so nicely and logically by you, drawing, during our discussion. It put things into perspective. Also, talking about my fears and worst case scenarios made me see that there are good options even if things don’t work out perfectly. I would certainly recommend this to others. In a very short time, you helped me make order in my thoughts, see a few options I hadn’t seen and tame my fears. Really appreciated! 🙂

This has felt so much more than a course. It’s really felt like a timely community of amazing women who are each seeking out what it really means to live their lives fully.

I appreciate the way you’ve made things really holistic, and about us and about our thinking. I think that’s really testament to your investment in us relationally.

I really want to encourage you really – what an amazing gift you’ve got – doing this with real integrity and warmth and enabling brilliant relationships so a massive thank you – it’s a real gift.

Emer has an engaging style and encourages a sense of camaraderie amongst group members, which enabled us to develop strong connections and support one another both during the sessions and in the Facebook group. I loved the way the programme flowed, and the visual images and imagery that Emer used both in the exercises we did and in her language. It really helped me to explore new ideas and options that I don’t believe would have come to the surface otherwise.

I would absolutely recommend this programme. Without feeling overly dramatic or too intense, it was a highly impactful programme and it’s still resonating with me weeks after we finished.

‘In my line of work, I rarely come across talented and creative individuals like Emer, who can bring out our latent talents to the fore; and influence and improve the way we work. While Emer’s technical ability as a visual thinker is without doubt, I am also impressed by her relaxed confidence, ability as a coach to command a room, ability to change mindsets, and her constructive feedback. As a visual thinker, coach and facilitator, Emer has my highest recommendation.’
