What is coaching?

Coaching is a one to one service that helps you explore your present reality and then design and reach the future you want. Unlike counselling, it is very much future focussed and goal orientated. Unlike mentoring, in coaching the goal is to help you find your own solutions rather than sharing my own knowledge or experience as coach. This makes coaching a truly sustainable investment, as it teaches you more about your own values and beliefs and how to think differently so that you can make difficult decisions more easily in the future. Coaching will inspire, motivate and empower you so that you can be your best self.

Why would I need coaching?

We all have times in our lives where things feel out of our own control or that we are just going along with things that happen to us rather than making things happen the ways we want them to. Family and work responsibilities, money worries, or simply low confidence, can get in the way of following our dreams. Coaching can help you take charge of your life, finding more purpose, direction and fulfilment so that you can achieve your dreams and have a happier, more balanced life.

How does it work?

Through coaching, we will gain a thorough understanding of what your life is like now and what your ideal life would be like. Then we’ll work out what’s stopping you from having that life right now and work out the steps you need to take to reach it. We’ll be working on self-confidence, personal values, self-limiting beliefs, time management, scheduling, setting boundaries and more. I’ll also show you tools and models that you can use in the future so that you are empowered to keep striving for bigger and braver goals.

What actually happens?

A typical coaching programme would involve meeting in person (in South Devon) or virtually six times for an hour or hour and a half each time. Generally, this would be monthly, but could be weekly or fortnightly if you are working to a specific time frame with your goal – it’s very much tailored to your own needs and desires. Similarly, some people prefer to have ad hoc one-off sessions as and when they have challenges to face and would like to talk them through.

What can I expect from coaching?

You can expect to come away from each session feeling inspired and motivated, able to tackle any challenge head-on. You can expect to come away from a coaching programme with more clarity about your life and what you want from it and having the confidence to achieve those things. You may be working towards a specific goal such as getting a promotion, starting a business, running a marathon, writing a book, or anything else and we would work together to help you reach those goals.

How much does it cost?

The TAKE YOUR CAPE OFF five day challenge is totally free – as is membership of our Facebook group. These are a great way to get a feel for my coaching style and see if we’d be a good fit.

The TAKE YOUR CAPE OFF online course goes into more depth and costs just £49, plus you can claim one 1:1 Power Hour to help you implement your learning for just £85!

I run a coaching skills course for a fantastic charity, which you can join for as little as £375 so that you can not only take your own cape off, but help others with theirs too. Next intake is March 2026.

My Hop Skip Jump 90 day 1:1 coaching programme is £1800. Through this you’ll be upgrading every element of your life – wealth, health and relationships.

Drop me an email to find out more about any of the above.

Who is coaching for?

Absolutely anyone! Everyone could benefit from reflecting on their lives and bringing more purpose and direction to their futures. As your coach, I will be asking you open questions to help you see your situation from different perspectives and to explore different solutions and futures. The cornerstone of coaching is that the person with the problem is the person who holds the best solution – my job is to help you find it and make it happen, giving you the skills to find your own solutions without me in the future.

What sort of people do you help?

I love working with people who have been through a change they didn’t ask for (break up, bereavement, redundancy etc), helping them to reimagine their future whilst grieving their past. I love helping Mums rediscover who they are after their identity has been taken over by motherhood. As a home educator, I love helping parents through making what can be an incredibly difficult decision with huge impacts on their families. I love helping people find a better work-life balance and introducing more fun and playfulness into people’s lives. With my experience in welfare to work and the healthcare sector, I love helping people improve their general wellbeing, no matter who they are or what’s going on in their lives.
