To achieve your greatest potential, you must learn to listen to your own voice and be brave enough to listen to the voices of others. The journey of self-discovery is not always easy, but it is exhilarating and worth every step along the way.
​
Why Personal Development?
​
Personal growth and self-development are not passive or isolated processes. Rather, they consist of an ever-changing journey of discovery. Our development is a lifetime task, affected by our interactions and experiences with those around us. I am passionate about working with people to bring their true selves to life, enabling them to achieve their highest potential and live a fulfilling life.

My Approach to Career Coaching
I don’t take a conventional approach to career coaching. I have seen the value in taking a deeper, more holistic approach as a way of creating more profound and lasting change. What this means is that:
We work on getting the foundations in place first
We uncover the real you – what makes you tick, what moves you and who you are underneath the roles you play. We uproot the mindset blocks that have kept you stuck rather than going straight to the end of the process (such as looking at potential jobs for you to apply for or updating your CV). Unless you sort the root of the problem out, you will just end up repeating the same patterns within your career.
We acknowledge the interconnectedness of your life and career
Your life and your career are intrinsically linked. This is why I often refer to it as your ‘working life’. Often, there are deep rooted beliefs which stem from your broader life experiences – such as how you were raised or life-changing events – which can have an impact on your career in some way. Similarly, when you find your purpose or start feeling more connected to your work, that happiness can spill over into many other aspects of your life.
You make decisions from a place of balance and clarity
There can be a lot of stress and emotion involved in our career, especially when we have been triggered to the point of contemplating a change. Making a knee-jerk decision from a heightened emotional state is less likely to have the desired impact than to come at it from a more measured position. True clarity can only emerge when we are in a calm and peaceful state and give ourselves the gift of time and headspace.
You develop a toolkit of holistic practices and techniques
Recognising the power of practices such as meditation, mindfulness and journaling, we create a daily practice to support your body, mind and spirit on your career transformation journey and restore some balance. We also create a toolkit of techniques that you can directly apply within your work such as visualisation and breathwork. There is a regular focus on connecting you with your intuition as the ultimate source of guidance and confidence.
Your career challenge becomes a catalyst to a deeper awakening
Within the container of time and space which career coaching provides, you get the chance to step back and to start to see your current career challenge through a new lens. To see how this might be moving you away from something which is unaligned and moving you towards something which is for your highest good. Or enabling you to grow in new ways which would have been impossible without the trigger of how your work is making you feel.
How Career Coaching works
Career Coaching sessions involve a combination of coaching exercises, working through any blocks and integrating any current work challenges or opportunities so that you have the chance to practice the theory as we work together.
​
Each session involves creating actions for you to take in between sessions plus I will share with you some strategies to test out to build your confidence, manage any stress or anxiety and begin creating better balance.
​
Accountability, challenge, understanding and a little dose of good humour (where appropriate) all come as standard.
