My Story

Why I Coach

I started as a psychology graduate who loved helping people solve complex problems. Over time, I kept seeing the same pattern: talented, capable professionals stuck in roles that drained them — unsure how to articulate their value or where to go next. I began coaching to change that.

Today, I combine evidence-based coaching with AI tools to make career progress faster and less stressful. I keep things simple. I focus on results you can see and feel — a clearer story, a stronger CV, interviews you actually look forward to.

I’ve worked across the public sector, tech, education, and creative industries, which means I understand the very different career landscapes professionals navigate. Whether you’re pivoting, stepping up, or simply feeling stuck, I’ll meet you exactly where you are.

“Talented people shouldn’t stay stuck. I coach because I’ve seen what’s possible when someone finally gets the right support.”

The Process

How we’ll work together

Every client journey is different, but the framework is consistent: clarity first, then strategy, then action — with momentum built in at every step.

01
Clarity

We define exactly what you want and, crucially, what’s been getting in the way. No vague goals — just honest, focused conversation.

02
Strategy

We choose the best next moves for you specifically — your sector, your strengths, your timeline. Nothing off-the-shelf.

03
Action

You get simple, practical steps: templates, scripts, and AI prompts you can use straight away. Progress you can see after every session.

04
Momentum

We review, refine, and keep you moving. Accountability that’s supportive, not pressuring — because sustainable progress beats short bursts every time.

Who I Work With

Is this you?

  • 🔄 Professionals in transition or promotion — navigating redundancy, a step up, or a complete change of direction
  • 🎯 Leaders who want focus and impact — senior professionals ready to sharpen their positioning and personal brand
  • 🗺 Career changers who need a plan — professionals pivoting industries who want a clear, confident strategy
  • 🧠 Neurodivergent professionals — seeking tailored systems and strategies that work with how their mind works best

What You’ll Gain

Typical outcomes

  • A clear professional story and stronger positioning
  • A refined CV, LinkedIn profile, and interview confidence
  • Practical routines for energy, focus, and consistent progress
  • Quicker, more confident decisions with less overthinking
  • AI tools and prompts you can use independently after our sessions

Most clients feel a meaningful shift after just one session. For bigger goals or a fuller career transition, a short programme of three to six sessions tends to work best.

Beyond the Coaching Room

There’s a human behind the coaching

When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me walking by the coast, planning school fundraisers — or being supervised by Harry and Poppy. They keep me grounded.

I believe good coaching starts with genuine connection. I’m not a script-following consultant; I’m someone who’ll listen properly, challenge you where it helps, and celebrate your wins as if they were my own. Because in a way, they are.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Most clients feel a meaningful shift after just one session. For bigger goals — a career change, a promotion push, or a full brand refresh — a short programme of three to six sessions tends to deliver the best results. We’ll discuss what’s right for you on our first call.
Yes — all sessions are held online via video call. I work with clients across the UK and internationally, so wherever you are, we can make it work.
Yes. I offer both done-with-you (where we work through it together) and done-for-you support. You’ll also receive templates and AI prompts so you can continue refining independently after our sessions.
Two things set my approach apart. First, I blend evidence-based coaching with a deep understanding of how recruitment actually works — I know what employers look for because I’ve spent 20 years working across both sides of that equation. Second, I’m a certified AI Productivity Trainer, which means I can help you use modern tools to work smarter and get ahead faster — not just coach you in the traditional sense.
Absolutely. I’m an Imposter Syndrome Practitioner and I have experience supporting neurodivergent professionals with tailored strategies — systems, routines, and approaches that work with how their mind works, rather than against it.
