“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

What is coaching?

Coaching is a mutual journey of facilitated discovery that supports you in meeting goals, discovering futures and aligning identity and values.

My method is to engage through questions and good listening, reflecting back to you what I am sensing or hearing you say to enable you to have a safe space for exploration.

Frameworks and methods inform my work but I am not set in any particular method, choosing to work with coaching clients in a way that best suits them as a person or group.

Much of my experience is shaped by my own Christian faith and work in the mission and non-profit world but this isn’t exclusive. My goal is to support the person in their belief’s and values, even if they are very different to my own.

Thing’s it’s good to know

Missional Coaching

Where is your place of belonging and influence? As a missional coach I work with individuals and teams to live and lead with intentional purpose aligned to their faith and calling. Rather than simply offering advice, I creates space for clarity, discernment, and action. I ask thoughtful questions, listen deeply, and support clients to recognise where God may be at work in their own lives and context—whether in church, workplace, nonprofit, or everyday life.

Transformational coaching

What holds you back from reaching your goals? I desire to help you move from where you are to where you’re called to be.

Our experience can subconsciously shape our mindset and hold us back in the area of belief about self, others and the world. True transformation goes beyond simple goals—it reshapes how you think, lead, and live. I work with people who want greater clarity, confidence, and impact but need focused support to move forward.

Transition & Sabbatical Coaching

The world is constantly moving and we all experience transition. Similarly, sabbaticals are also a time of stepping back, resting, re-assessing and gaining restoration.

Having a journey companion during these seasons can help us explore the spaces in between and the joy of discovery and reinvention. I can walk with you providing a connection point, discovery space and support so you journey with clarity and intention.

Questions?

  • I work on a sliding scale of cost from £30 an hour for missional workers to £100 for corporate clients. This depends on the customer but I never want finance to be a barrier to good coaching. Drop me an email to enquire.

  • Yes, I am a member of the International coaching federation to ACC level and am currently working towards my PCC

  • Coach and client chemistry is important. That’s why I offer 30 minute, no commitment zoom call. Even if we begin coaching and you change your mind, that’s OK, the client chooses the length of the journey.

  • Drop me an email or whatsapp and I can send you some questions to explore if coaching is the right fit for you.
