Coaching
What is calling for your attention?
What are you curious about?
What if there were parts of you that you never knew existed that were holding you stuck or preventing you from being who you want to be? What if it were possible to make these unconscious parts conscious, and hold them with compassion as you move forward into your fullest potential?
Have you considered that all the systems of which you have been a part, your family, your school, your employer, your social networks have all left their mark - marks that may no longer be serving you.
Coaching all begins with you – your questions, your dreams, your desires. Together we engage in an extraordinarily powerful partnership in which we explore your world - where you are now, and where you want to be. We uncover fresh perspectives, release stuck patterns, and co-create fresh options for action; inviting deep and lasting change.
I coach people from the belief that we all have our own inner sources of power, wisdom, and creativity. You are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole.
I bring the full breadth of my experience and expertise to every session to aid you in your inquiry – offering a carefully balanced combination of support and challenge.

Executive Coaching
How are you showing up?
What impact are you having?
What are you leading for?
Every leader carries a history, not just their own but the imprints of teams from early family systems, education, employment, communities and cultures. Every system of which we have been a part leave a legacy of cultural norms, beliefs, values and unhealed traumas. Unresolved tensions and burdens show up in our way of being; the way we communicate, make decisions, work together, hold conflict, and ultimately they influence whether we lead from a place of presence and connectiont or a place of protection.
My dear friend and fellow collaborator Steve Holliday describes leadership as a 'craft'. It is a beautiful description of what is a lifelong apprenticeship in adulting. Vertical leadership and inquiry is all about developing your levels of awareness, becoming awake and aware, paying attention to, and nurturing your whole self, so that you can lead yourself and others from centred ground.
I work in close partnership with you, listening to you at a deep level and asking powerful questions that encourage self discovery - enabling you to meet complexity without reactivity. Together I support you to harness your intellectual, spiritual, emotional and physical energy and lead for the changes that you are seeking
I offer coaching on-line, in person, at your place of work or on outdoors in nature including tailor made Executive Retreats at my studio on the Cambridgeshire Fen where you can combine coaching, with deep restoration and reflection and plan your path forward for yourself and your organisation.
Women’s Coaching
Step into your power with grace
The challenges and opportunties we face in our families, communities and organisations are bigger and more complex than ever.
Executive boards are crying out for skills that women in particular hold in abundance; adaptability, creativity, and collaboration to name but a few.
And yet we so often find ourselves bound by outmoded ways of thinking and being in the world, particularly in patriarchal systems that hold us stuck and prevent us from fulfilling our potential. Sometimes we don't really know what is happening, only that we have a deep sense that something isn't quite right.
Whatever it is that is calling for your attention, I come alongside you, listen, notice and ask questions that help you tap into your inner sources of power, wisdom, and grace to live the life you desire.

Group Coaching
Want to grow and learn together?
Group coaching is a powerful way of facilitating learning and discovery. Participants benefit from high levels of safety, support and challenge and the diverse perspectives of the group. It’s a great way to lean into complex problems and develop leadership skills.
I frequently run group coaching programmes, facilitate Action Learning Sets and am a trained practitioner of the Fearless Organsiation Scan for any teams curious about unleashing their power and raising performance.
