About Me

I believe that success in the workplace CAN and SHOULD go hand-in-hand with personal fulfilment.
I'm a Certified WHY Coach from Simon Sinek's The Optimism Company, one of fewer than 100 coaches worldwide qualified and licensed to offer his unique methodology. I use this process either as a standalone session or as a springboard to deeper coaching, helping people gain clarity at life and career crossroads.
With 35 years as a communications leader building high-performing teams, I'm passionate about nurturing talent and fostering cultures where people feel valued, motivated, and balanced.
I've navigated my own professional ambitions alongside raising three (now adult) children and life's various challenges. I understand that personal and professional lives don't exist in silos, and my coaching reflects that reality.

Specialism

Through my coaching practice, I support professionals navigating career-defining moments while balancing personal challenges. Whether you're at a crossroads, questioning your direction, seeking alignment between what you do and why you do it, or managing the complexity of personal upheaval alongside professional demands, I create space for honest conversation and real transformation.
My background in communications and leadership means I understand the specific pressures of high-performing environments, the weight of senior responsibility, and the challenge of maintaining authenticity while meeting external expectations.
I work particularly well with PR and communications professionals, though I'm open to working with anyone seeking clarity, purpose, and sustainable success.
