1-1 Coaching
get unstuck, develop inner confidence and Thrive
If you’re struggling to fulfil your potential at work it’ll bring anxiety and stress that spills beyond your working life.
You know that the old ways of achieving success by working harder, perfecting and pleasing others are no longer serving you. You yearn for confidence that comes from within so that you can show up authentically and make a difference.
It’s stressful and confusing to realise
that what you’ve done all your life and what brought you success
is now holding you back.
You’ve always been a hard worker.
You love getting a job done, delighting in getting it right and fulfilling the brief. People love working with you because you’re enthusiastic, smart, and you make sure that t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted.
You’re keen to help and say yes even when your plate is full.
The others see you as confident and reliable, but you know the effort and work it takes to know that level of detail, to get it all to look perfect, and the stress and self-doubt that accompanies it.
It’s baffling to you that despite all those achievements and good feedback, you still question the value you bring and worry that the next time you may fail.
When others give you positive feedback, you’re waiting for the BUT, the “opportunity for growth”, and you zoom in on it like a hawk and can’t let go.
This performing, perfecting and pleasing worked when you were in total control of your time and were the primary (or only) person delivering it.
However, your role has recently gotten more prominent, and you need to be visible and delegate, which is hard for you.
You hate telling people what to do because they rarely do what you need them to do, and the constant nagging is exhausting.
Often you end up doing it yourself.
But there’s so much to do, and not enough time to know it all AND deliver to the standard you want AND manage and develop others.
You feel the pressure to prove that you can do this.
You’ve been trying hard to do it perfectly, avoiding mistakes, judgement and criticism of others.
But more than anything, you’re tired of worrying and stressing.
External validation that propelled you before is not as forthcoming and frequent enough because there’s an expectation on this level that you’re fine.
In this silence, your self-doubt is left to fester and grow.
You know you need to change but you don’t know how. You wonder if it’s even possible - maybe you’re not cut out for this and should look for something else - a smaller role or a different career.
You know you need to change but you don’t know how.
You wonder if it’s even possible.
“You helped me to uncover unproductive beliefs and behaviours which have kept me away from being fully seen and owning my success at work.
I now have greater clarity of what I stand for, what I want, and the skills to be braver with my career and life.”
— DJ, SENIOR DIRECTOR, GLOBAL TALENT DEVELOPMENT
You’ve tried to fix this.
You’ve likely subscribed to a dozen podcasts about being a great leader, being your best self and making the impact you desire.
When someone at work suggests a good self-development book, you buy it immediately, eager to find that golden tip, a nugget that will help you do things differently, feel different, and be different.
You may have signed up for workshops and online courses looking to learn how to quiet the inner critic and feel better in your own skin.
You get the theory, and it all makes sense, but putting it into practice is a struggle. Your inner critic is very loud, and it’s hard to hear yourself think. What’s more, you’re not even sure if silencing it would be good for you - after all, isn’t he who motivated you to do well in the past?
“Fake it till you make it” is the advice you’ve been given in the past but faking it just feels awkward and inauthentic and like putting on a show.
You’re tired of putting on a show whilst feeling a mess inside!
There’s so much information out there. You’ve been trying to figure this out, but the little voice in your head says: “You’re not good at this. You’ll never be as good as them.”
You talk about this with friends, and maybe you’re lucky enough to have a good mentor at work, but it’s not enough.
The trouble is, they’re quick to advise and offer you fixes (that worked for them); they care for you but helping people grow into their full potential and authenticity is not their expertise.
Besides, a part of you doesn’t want to be vulnerable all the way. You care what they think of you and don’t want to ruin that.
They’re not transformational coaches with a deep understanding of what it takes for us to be brave and how to go beyond our early conditioning and embrace our true, authentic potential.
To get unstuck, we need to create a capacity and space for you to hear your thoughts and articulate your feelings without any expectations or fear of judgement.
You need structure and processes to address your issues so you can focus your energy on understanding and changing what’s blocking you.
You need a 1-1 guide and unconditional support to help you embrace new ways of thinking and being, firstly with yourself and then confidently with others.
You don’t need fixing. you need to be seen.
You’ve got this.
As a certified coach and experienced facilitator of the “how to show up, be seen and live brave” methodology, I will help you step off the hamster wheel to hear yourself think and grow.
We’ll look into your specific issues and define the vision for you that inspires and energises you.
I will help you dig deep to understand your unique blocks to thrive and how you can overcome them.
I want you to be successful beyond our sessions and inspire others, which is why I will teach you and help you embody what you learn.
We’ll ensure that we include all of you this time because there’s nothing wrong with you.
We’ll be working on helping you articulate clearly your own zone of genius and what it takes to nurture and protect it.
We’ll work on replacing perfectionism with a striving for excellence and develop a kinder, more effective motivation tool than self-flagellation and criticism.
You’ll be clear on whose opinion matters and learn to tap into and hear your own voice.
The bravest thing we’ll ever do is root our worth in self-acceptance, relying on our own validation whilst doing hard things despite the critics.
This is an inner transformation, and you may get a text like my client did: “I think you’re doing a cracking job. It feels like something’s different; not sure what but it’s great to see.”
“I feel so much more comfortable, relaxed and confident. I still feel like me, but I am more aware and better equipped to deal with challenges that arise.”

Why Me?
I am a qualified coach and facilitator of the transformational work of Dr Breneé Brown on courage, vulnerability and shame.
I’ve studied humans all my life, intrigued that regardless of age or education, people self-sabotage their lives and relationships, and that’s a shame.
It took me a long time to find my way to thrive, discover my voice, and follow it.
Like you, I’ve ticked the boxes - graduating from Economics at Warwick University followed by a career in management consulting and business transformation.
My mission is to empower you to thrive and live, love and lead with courage and purpose.
“Yesterday’s session was transformational. You somehow managed to help me get to the truth of it, and it feels liberating.”
