Just back from an inspiring, challenging and fun filled adventure with Barbara on the Kerry Camino. it is a trip that will stay in my fond memories for years to come. incredible friendships made, triumph feelings felt and in the most beautiful scenery. I recommend this trip if your looking for something away from the norm, immersed in nature, challenging yourself to do something different. Barbara is an exceptional leader and is just made for guiding rookie camino people like me on such an epic journey, the hotel was fabulous, food was delicious, john the bus driver a godsend, and everything was organised so well. It was so great to come back to such luxury each evening after the day in the Kerry countryside. Barbaras energy keeps you going and is so knowledgeable and in tune with the camino, I wouldnt consider doing it with anyone else. Thank you for such a great experience Barbara, it was an epic journey on so many levels

M Kelly June 2019

Since last January 2019 my life has been turned upside down and inside out (that's what it feels like anyway) I won't bore you with the details, but the short version husband love of my life had affair with so called friend/ neighbour! Anyway I have children and needed to be strong for them so went to see councillor which after weeks felt like I wasn't getting the help I needed so after a fluke meeting with Barbara in June this year ,I got a great vibe from her and even though I'd never met or heard from her before I felt like I could really open up to her, anyway I never said anything that day but a couple of weeks later i seen on FB she was a life coach ! To say I was happy was an understatement ,I felt like I was meant to meet her at that time .I got in touch and I have to say after talking with Barbara for 6 weeks I have never felt so emotionally prepared for all life has to offer,she has given me the tools to help with the emotional rollercoaster I am on at the moment ,I am taking every day as it comes and I am amazing myself at how well I am dealing with situations as they arise . My family and close friend have been telling me they are proud of me for how I am handling things, honestly before I got in touch with Barbara I couldn't see my way through this ,but now I am truly proud of myself. thank you Barbara
