About Me!
I came to coaching after using coaching techniques with staff I managed and supported in the voluntary sector for over 12 years. After experiencing some great coaching, I set up my own consultancy business (click here). I was then drawn to the principles of Co-Active Coaching, leading me to train with the Coaches Training Institute where I have gained CPCC accreditation. In addition to co-active coaching tools, I also use principles of polarity coaching - go to Creating from Polarity to find out more.
Like many of my friends, a few years ago as I approached the age of 35, I found myself at the crossroads of a major dilemma - to have children or remain child-free? In the end, I decided to become a parent but I also realised that I could have had an equally satisfying child-free life if I hadn't had a child. This led me to coach women around the decision to have a child or not.
Having had a child, the stress of being a new mum and trying to have a work/life balance was very shocking! In addition to coaching, I am currently training with the NCT to become a post-natal group facilitator- in order to support new mothers in the stressful post-natal period.
I have featured in a number of national publications including: The Times, the Observor Magazine, Scotland on Sunday and Glamour Magazine.
I'm known for bringing my eccentric spirit into my coaching - using passion, humour and a sense of being anchored in service of my clients!!
