Ingrid Balogh

It wasn't the first time I have asked for help, hence I didn't have any special expectations regarding coaching. I thought I knew what happens on a session, and I was sure miracles are not part of them, at least not within a couple of weeks. When Ingrid told me about how her clients can rate their coaching sessions, the top category literally got stuck in my head: "life changing". I skeptically thought to myself a coaching session relating to my job cannot possibly be life changing. We were around the third session when the word popped up again in my mind. This time I wasn't awkwardly smiling about it anymore. My smile was honest, and coming from my heart. Because regardless of my previous experience with self-development, and regardless of my doubts in the true meaning of the word, I can definitely say it: this was effing life saving and life changing!

I am beyond grateful for your support during my journey towards unlocking my potential as a private and professional person as well as towards finding happiness and my purpose in life. I love your empathic personality and how you structure your coaching sessions with a perfect balance of valuable tools, both of rational and spiritual nature. After our journey I can proudly say that I am strong, self-aware and capable of managing upcoming challenges in my future life! Thanks for the love.

I was looking forward to the sessions like I was going to have a chat with a dear, close friend. Where there are no meaningless rounds of small talk, and we can dive in to what matters right away, because there is trust, acceptance, active listening and light humour. It was very easy to just flow in this coaching process led by Ingrid with grace. It was easy to own up to my misjudgements and limitations, to face where I am stuck at and work on getting unstuck. Crying was easy and natural too. Ingrid creates a broad space, but within that broadness she shows the way with gentle, yet alert awareness, and that's key: it makes the space so safe. With particular care and empathy, even my homeworks were custom-fitted on me, I am especially grateful for that. It's been a both easy and very deep journey for me, getting close to my problems through visual-meditative-creative ways, and finding the solutions in the same manner. Literally creating my future! I feel like Ingrid has become not just my guide in my professional goals, but in my whole life. Every minute of our work together has been a pleasure and an honour.

There is a tale in which the hero has plenty of skills, but has no faith. Her skills too only work, when she has faith. Coming across an abyss she notices that there is no bridge to cross the abyss on. She must have faith that as soon as she puts one foot forward a bridge is going to form underneath her feet. Once she believes, the bridge appears one piece after the other, and she can cross over, all the while her sibling is cheering from the other side. Ingrid stood by my side and helped me have faith that I can create the bridge to cross over.

I wanted to say thank you one more time for being my patient guide, calm oasis and bringing me peace of mind. Thank you for helping me out in both the good and the bad and for holding my hand while navigating through choppy waters. I truly believe that you were and are one of the best influences in my life at the moment. I am dedicating all my achievements this past six months to you. Thank you for treating me as a human being and not as a professional working in a multinational - having you as my coach helped me realise what I need to do to be successful not only on my job, but also in life. Thank you for caring for me! All your coachees are happy to have you as their coach.

I want to express my gratitude and say thank you for the opportunity to work on myself with you. I explicitly feel changes and a new quality emerging in my life. Our coaching sessions have clearly contributed to the start of this emerging process. Thank you for the deep listening, for your patience, and that you didn't let me get away. You helped me see through the façade and directed my attention to what's really important. Also I cannot be grateful enough for you pointing me to the world of movement. New doors have opened for me front and back, and I am now exploring them all. If I ever want to seek out coaching again, you'll be the one I'll reach out to.

I was lucky to have won Ingrid's challenge and be offered complimentary coaching. I was eager to know and experience how coaching works, and the impact has taken me completely by surprise. I am quite an objective and rational person, but unconsciously I often feel uncomfortable and uncertain to take a step or make a move in my life simply because I put too much focus on what could go wrong. Ingrid's coaching style, skills and tools have taken my inner strength and vision to the surface, and I became able to use this strength to achieve what I wanted for a long time: a new career that allows me to be closer to my family, and have a healthy work-life balance. Through my work with Ingrid in only 3 sessions I have entirely transformed both my professional and personal life into a new phase that I am very much looking forward to. I certainly will be carrying on coaching with Ingrid in my new future, and strongly recommend her coaching as a powerful tool of transformation.

I got to the flowhouse without knowing what coaching is and how it can actually help me. I was in a place of my life when I thought I had everything and I felt like I had nothing at the same time. Ingrid was a perfect guide to help me find my path. It was a truly transformational journey, very emotional at times, engaged me fully, and little by little helped me discover my purpose and define next steps I will take. It is not magic though, it is hard work to meet your inner critics, to uncover what your motivation is, and to stay true to yourself. Ingrid was kind and calm, very professional and super attentive all along. I am truly happy I found coaching and what it can do. I recommend it to everyone.

I was just recalling a few years back when I’d just started a new job and you helped me think through some of the challenges I was facing at the time. Thanks again! Our session had a material impact on setting me up for a successful 5+ years at the company!

My coaching experience was an amazing journey. I am grateful that I met Ingrid on my life path. I can’t say what would have happened if I didn’t, but outcomes exceeded by far my expectations. The challenge she offered to my belief system was crucial at this point in my life. It opened many avenues, took blinders from my eyes, pushed me toward new things. It is up to me what I will do with it. (Learn more about Piotr's coaching journey from his blog.)

I had the pleasure of hiring Ingrid as my life coach not knowing what to expect at all and was pleasantly surprised. Ingrid put me immediately at ease explaining what was possible in my coaching and we began. She was a very easy coach to work with; very fast at highlighting areas I could really concentrate on to benefit, not just my career, but my life in general. After very few sessions I found confidence to focus on moving my life forward in a positive way and quickly secured a new and better job which was a much better fit to me financially and better suited to my personal goals. She built my confidence up by illustrating how my body language and mental attitude can really work together to create a more positive lifestyle. I would recommend working with her and I will definitely be carrying on coaching with Ingrid in the future.

I am glad and proud to recommend one of the most courageous and authentic coaches I know. Ingrid Balogh has experience moving people to a place where everything is possible as you learn to trust and develop your inner strength and resourcefulness. I will be grateful forever for attending the Moves2Move workshop with her where I managed to let things that did not serve me anymore go as well as let new things I desired in at the same time!

Ingrid's passion for self-awareness, leadership and purposeful living is infectious. She knows what matters. I had the privilege to see and accompany her while she fearlessly and wholeheartedly engaged in a life-changing decision and project. I am glad she took the courageous decision to serve her many communities as a skilled life coach. Her clients will greatly benefit from her authenticity, commitment in connecting their essence along with her wealth of professional and personal experiences.  

As a beginner coach I was curious how it's all done by an experienced professional. I feel lucky to have gotten in touch with Ingrid! I am grateful to Restart-UP for the recommendation. Ingrid is an open minded, empathetic coach who has immediately created a space where each session has gone by very quickly filled with excitement and great atmosphere. Every session was truly a flow experience for me! Giving and receiving is great, and this time I have received a lot!  I have bookmarked Ingrid's website https://theflowhouse.eu/hu/homepage/ – open for more in the future! Thank you Ingrid!

Ingrid has shown me a new dimension of working with a coach. She helped me in my self-development through a variety of playful exercises, games, assignments that were always perfectly fitting into the specific context and topic we were focusing on. She gave me plenty of inspiration and concrete techniques, ideas, that I can very practically use in my daily life to continuously strengthen and develop myself.
