RElax your grip on life’s steering wheel

Coaching

dedicated one-to-one support

This is dedicated, individual one-to-one support over 3 to 6 months, usually in-person with the option of online sessions.

It’s for you if you feel overwhelmed or exhausted by thoughts and feelings, with a persistent worry that you’ll never reach your potential. Because no matter how hard you try (and you always try so very hard to get things right - alone), you somehow always fall short…

As your inner critic kindly reminds you.

The answer isn’t (yet) more hard work and trying

My coaching brings about the steady direction, realness, lightness and satisfaction that eludes your ambition. I’m someone you can trust to work alongside you through all this - with humour and honesty.

I offer you confidential space where you get to explore being you - free from pressure to pretend, perform, or be any other way than how you really are. Coaching can be sincere, playful and everything in-between.

Feel OK as you are; back in the here-and-now

Together we’ll lead you towards a more fulfilling experience of following what’s really alive in you, yet safely at home in your body. In my experience, the results and rewards then ripple outwards into your career or business, and relationships.

What to expect

Coaching is permission to be human: messy, thoughtful, funny, wobbly and real. Part conversation, part exploration - coaching uses talking and moving to help you find ways forward that feel good for you.

FIT & FOCUS

We make sure my coaching style feels right for you and your situation. Because how we get on and trust each other influences how effective coaching is.

We also explore how this works practically and what you want from coaching. This forms our agreement, which we revisit often.

EXPLORE & EXPAND

In 90-minute, face-to-face sessions we explore your challenges, what’s really going on beneath, and where you want to focus your attention.

I coach you as a whole human - head, heart and body, liberating your innate brilliance, emotional guidance, and intuitive sense of where to go next.

eXPERIMENT & PLAY

Magic happens when you try new moves and surprise yourself. It can get icky too. So we carefully navigate the wins and wobbles together. I’ll keep you accountable to yourself and cheer you on all the way.

To shake things up, I offer exercises that reveal wisdom from your instincts and emotions. We might move, relate or play together.

REFLECT & aDAPT

There’s always space to be raw and human here. We follow your natural learning cycles, and slow down or space things out to give you more room for change, new challenges and integration.

I’m on-hand for check-ins and snags between sessions too. I’m here to help you feel steady and safe. Feel independent? Also fine.

NURTURE & THRIVE

I want you to be you - always on your own terms. So we build resilience, confidence and self-leadership in you from day one.

I aim for self-sufficiency, self-support and self-awareness that keeps momentum up for you - even with setbacks; even when our coaching comes to an end.

What clients say about my coaching

Identities anonymised for privacy

Client A - Female

"These days I can catch myself before I spiral like I used to. Even when I haven't ticked everything off my to-do list, I still feel okay. I still have my bad days but I'm more calm and fine with things the way they are and me just being me."

Client B - Male

“I'm not up in my head nowhere near as much as I was... With a clearer direction and knowing who I am better there's more room for messing up sometimes. Also I enjoy being with people and I’m more tolerant and confident, and I care less what others think.”

Client C - Female

“I don’t feel like so much of a f***-up and I live my life like I’m actually allowed to be here… Can you believe I'm even saying that now?! I do the kind of work I really want to do, with people I love and I think I’m actually enjoying it!”

“I’m so much kinder to myself and I feel so much less pressure to prove anything. And yeah, I feel more ambitious, and more like things are possible than before - so it’s a weird feeling of hope and ambition, without the feeling of inevitable failure or dread.

“I also feel spiritually that I have made peace with my own beliefs and allowed myself to have those beliefs. I feel more prepared to face my emotions and feel them, rather than avoid them. My journey now is to be with myself and enjoy relaxing into life more. My job is not to push more, because it was leading to burn-out and stress and not enjoying the things I do enjoy.

“It’s been the best thing I’ve ever done.”

Everything you get with your coaching

Like you and all my clients - every coaching programme is totally unique. That means we create a bespoke package with pricing and scope that works for both of us. This happens up-front as part of the coaching process. Here's a list from which we can draw whatever you need:

One-to-one coaching sessions which last 90 minutes, dedicated to you, your challenges and what’s alive for you. These are mostly in-person with an online option too.
Resources, suggestions, insight and after-care following each coaching session.
Informal support and check-ins between sessions by email, voicenote or messaging (for e.g. wobbles, accountability, reminders, celebration).
Shorter, impromptu online coaching sessions for specific issues or pep-talks and debriefs before or after an event.
Free early access to my eBooks (like 'The Perfectionist's Way' and ‘Emotions for Perfectionists').
Background preparation and reflection, before and after your coaching sessions to track alignment with your priorities, plus mid-way review and end evaluation.
Versatile coaching options including embodiment coaching, physical intelligence, Clean Space, Authentic Relating, and ILM5 leadership and performance coaching. Plus 7+ years of coaching experience and certification.
Free tickets to my improvisation and Authentic Relating group workshops (by request).

What my clients say about coaching with me

Identities anonymised for privacy

“I used to think the rest of the world was getting on without me and I was falling behind them or something but I let go of all that pressure. I feel like I caught up with myself and I can trust that how I am already is enough to begin with, and I can always build on that.”

client F - Female

“I honestly believe that one of the best things to come out of the coaching is not taking things quite so b***** seriously or myself! I’m still totally committed to my career and relationship but I tread life more lightly and easier the way I am these days.”
