Amy Sinton
Coaching people to their best versions
Annually voted among the Top Life & Executive Coaches around the globe, the lovely Amy Sinton is an International Coach, Business Trainer, and Public Speaker.
Amy chose to coach people because it is her passion to support people in living a better quality life, having more fulfilling relationships, and boosting their careers. She earned her coaching certifications at CoachWise Academy more than two years ago – it is one of the first coaching schools in Poland with a very structured and renowned methodology in terms of coaching. She is also a graduate of the Harvard Business School Online.
Within the large sphere of life and business coaching, Amy has found her niche. A mother to 3 wonderful children, she loves to support parents to boost their career and improve work-life balance.
“It took me a while to come up with a specific niche – as I can use my coaching methodology for almost all types of personal life and coaching sessions. Yet some time back, I understood that as of the fact that I am a working Mum, it would be great to focus a little more on working with parents as well as people aiming to achieve more in their career. But I work with all different types of people – not just parents and not just people who are working,” she shares.
When Amy started out a couple of years back, she found it difficult to explain the concept of ‘coaching’ to certain people, especially those not working in the corporate world or those who’d never heard of non-sports related coaching. Some even assumed that it is the same as therapy!
“It is different as it focuses less on the past of a person, and more on the future and accomplishment of goals. It does have some similarities though, as we as coaches talk with people about their emotions, fears, certain patterns in behaviour and choices,” she explains.
For Amy, another big challenge was juggling motherhood with coaching. The exhaustion is real for sure, she tells us, adding that she overcame it by listening to her own needs: “Truly caring about yourself and attending to your needs, just as you do to others’ needs, is very important. Not overlooking your own needs on behalf of what another fully capable adult can do for themselves. Over the years, I have gotten more skilled in managing this for myself, more awareness, and gained some more understanding through tough experiences. But a long time ago, I did not do that. So don’t make it a routine habit to put your needs after other people’s needs.”
Seeing how some people have successfully dealt with certain challenges in their lives is what inspired Amy to pursue her path. “I have seen people find a lot of value in coaching sessions and what it brings to their lives. This is a very rewarding feeling to me. I sometimes even do sessions pro-bono if I see that someone really cannot afford to have a paid session,” she reveals.
Such pure dedication has seen Amy honoured at prestigious global forums such as: ‘Top 10 Executive Coaches of 2022’ and ‘Top 20 Life Coaches To Look Out For In 2022’ by NYC Journal; ‘Women Leaders To Look Up To In 2023’ by Passion Vista Magazine; and many others. She has over 100 videos about coaching and self-development on her YouTube channel, and gets invited to public speaking events all around the world. Fluent in English, Polish and Russian languages, she has lived in many countries and has a large experience in multicultural environments.
All of which has brought out the leader in Amy. An inspiring mentor, she feels a leader must be a wise decision maker, develop his/her employees, and communicate effectively.
Speaking about the crucial role of good communication at work, she says, “I think that learning how to communicate effectively, no matter what role you are in within an organization, but even more so as a leader, can really improve the quality of the work that you do and the work that others do. You can really change the way that you collaborate with others and improve co-working dynamics. Coaching too supports achieving better quality communication and improved relationships.”
