About ME
Helping Leaders and Teams Break Free from Autopilot
​​I am a Executive Transformation Coach, workshop facilitator, and team coach dedicated to supporting individuals and teams to flourish. With a unique blend of professional expertise, personal insight, and a deep commitment to transformation, I guide my clients to unlock authentic leadership and live with purpose and vitality.
​
With over 25 years of professional experience as a qualified Accountant and Senior Finance and Project Manager, I understand the pressures and complexities of corporate life. Having lived and worked in the UK, South Africa, and Switzerland, I’ve led leaders and teams through large-scale business transformations, including mergers, cultural shifts, and challenging organizational changes. These experiences shape my coaching, offering grounded, real-world support to my clients.
​
As an ICF-accredited Coach, Co-active Certified Professional Coach, and trained in Organization Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) and Team Coaching, I bring both depth and breadth to my practice. My professional accreditations, combined with lived corporate experience, enable me to facilitate profound growth and sustainable change.
​
I am deeply passionate about leadership that goes beyond titles. True leadership is about discovering your strengths, understanding your impact, and leading authentically and purposefully. My approach invites clients to explore new insights and behaviours, fostering collaboration, trust, and resilience. Witnessing the ripple effect of this transformation—an individual thriving, a team connecting, and an organization flourishing—is what inspires my work.
​
I approach coaching with a blend of compassion and direct feedback, creating a safe yet challenging space for growth. My focus is on unlocking the power of vulnerability, authenticity, and heartfelt leadership to create meaningful change that lasts.
​
Beyond coaching, I am an ultrarunner, nature enthusiast, and proud Scot living in Switzerland with my daughter. My love for the mountains and endurance running—highlighted by winning Britain’s 268-mile Spine Race—has taught me discipline, resilience, patience, and self-awareness. These lessons deeply influence my coaching, helping my clients cultivate their inner strength and embrace the journey of transformation.
​
Let’s uncover your true essence, align within, and create the transformation you seek. Together, we can inspire change that reaches far beyond yourself.
