Corporate: I trained as a solicitor at a top-20 law firm, then led fairness and inclusion strategy at a global healthcare company. This work led me to systems-change long before the wider conversation caught up, and taught me the disconnect between what organisations do and what they say they do.
Creative: As a designer, I developed a deep understanding of how people relate to art and space. I spent more than a decade designing listed and heritage homes and commercial projects, while mentoring other creatives to develop their own design craft. Creativity is not a hobby to me. It’s existential.
Entrepreneurial: I built an award-winning business of my own; a sustainable, profitable creative practice from a standing start, in the male-dominated construction industry. I know what it takes.
Human: I have lived most of my forties; running marathons, carrying the grief of caring for, then losing a parent, raising three teenagers and meeting the emptying nest, all while holding significant professional responsibility. As a registered yoga teacher with postgraduate study in embodied presence, I work with somatic integration as well as the mind.
Before building an integrative coaching practice, I spent my career working with structure at every scale; the systems people work inside, the spaces they live in, the lives they build, and my own. What follows here is some of the experience that I bring to the women I work with, most of whom are navigating exactly the transitions I have known.
I worked my way inwards, from the system to the self.
I am researching an MSc in consciousness and transpersonal psychology, and hold coaching certification from Harvard Medical School. But I do not coach from a textbook. Mine is a deliberately independent practice model, informed but not constrained by rigorous academic study and shaped by a lived feminist lens.
The change I work on with you starts at the interior, and moves outward into how you lead, how you build, and how you live. I offer my full human attention, singular voice and an honest partnership to a small number of women through a few structured programmes. I guard the rest of my time with care.
