Curious about working together?
I work predominantly with women coaches. When I first started my own business I wanted to help everyone! If someone asked me who my ideal client was I'd simply reply,
"Anyone. I can help anyone!"
Almost two decades on, I now see that not everyone is my ideal client.
In case you’re wondering if YOU are one of them, read on.
About Me
I believe…
That every woman deserves success by her definition. When women give themselves permission to be successful, it organically gives every other woman around her permission to do the same.
That the coaching industry is going to continue to grow, and that the best coaches need both personal and professional support.
Most women have the blueprint to success inside of them, however the decades of ‘good girl’ conditioning have blocked them from accessing it.
Most coaches focus on the strategy of success, not what’s going on underneath.
This goes far beyond mindset.
I value…
Agency
Women have been told what and how to BE for as long as we can remember. Personal agency including financial security is my goal for every client I work with. Agency results in the flexibility and freedom that my clients crave.
Resilience
Learning about yourself will give you the biggest gifts... ...if you stick with it. "Just keep going..." is my mantra. Things will go wrong, results will be unexpected, mistakes will be made.
Experimentation
Embracing what we don’t know and diving into a mindset of curiosity rather than perfection is what keeps us in motion.
Integrity
In a world of algorithms, aggressive marketing and hustle culture I stand as a beacon of honesty and transparency.
Optimism
Nurturing a high vibe of hope and positivity keeps our mind open to focus on solutions and overcome challenges.
I promise...
- I will treat you as an individual, not a number.
- I will be a role model, and embody my values.
- I will show you what you cannot see.
- I will say what others will not.
- I will champion you as you become the woman you were born to be.
If this is feeling good so far, then choose where you would like to go next…
THE WHOLE STORY
How did I go from designing mobile phone networks empowering some of the worlds’ leading coaches?
READY TO GET TO WORK?
Step 1 is to head over to my Work With Me page to see what your primary focus is.
Let’s do it!
STILL NOT SURE IF WE FIT?..
No problem, I can help with that.
Keep reading 😊
Stay on this page…
I’m currently onboarding new coaching clients and students who want to build unshakeable confidence, and
make a living from making a difference.
I WORK BEST WITH WOMEN WHO…
are ready to take the next step in their coaching career or business, but they have internal beliefs and inner fears that are holding them back which result in them staying stuck
are aware that they have inner blocks and are open to learning more about themselves
are willing to do the work to overcome whatever is holding them back to create their wildly successful life
understand that results are not linear and have no regard for time
are self-motivated and willing to commit and invest in themselves
recognise the power of having an expert coach to check in with
are motivated and will ask for help when they need it
WE WON’T GET THE BEST RESULTS IF…
You need perfectionism. If a broken link or missed email will irrevocably break your trust in me, then we are best not to work together.
You want me to do the work for you, or tell you what to do. There are times that we will draw on my experience, but I am focused on you finding your Authentic Impact, not mine.
You want me to take 100% responsibility for you. I treat my clients as adults and expect them to ask for what they need.
You need to get results immediately. Whilst many of my clients do, there are no guarantees and bringing that kind of pressure into this work sabotages it before we begin.
What if you could have a powerful impact by giving yourself permission to be wildly successful?
(Whatever that looks like to you.)
And what if you could do that without compromising who you are?
You are a brilliant woman...
You absolutely can.
