How I can help
You may be experiencing self-doubt or imposter syndrome. Perhaps those colleagues who were previously your peers are demonstrating resentment at your promotion and hindering your attempts to build your own new team. Building your resilience is essential. I coach you through challenges and setbacks, helping you emerge stronger and more determined.
I work with you to refine your active listening and communication skills, enabling you to inspire, motivate and lead your team with confidence. You face critical decisions daily; I provide you with tools and strategies to make informed, effective decisions with clarity and focus. Most importantly, achieving success shouldn’t come at the expense of well-being. My coaching sessions help you find the right balance between your professional and personal life.
As an experienced CEO and MD myself, I understand the unique pressures and responsibilities that come with leading an organisation. My role as an executive coach is to help empower first-time CEOs and MDs to become the most effective and inspiring leader you can be, by working with you to hone and develop your leadership style and leadership skills.

My other services include:
Imposter Syndrome coaching
Imposter Syndrome can be deeply limiting. It affects confidence, restricts leadership potential and is especially common among startup founders, CEOs and senior executives. Left unaddressed, it can lead to burnout, anxiety and underperformance.
Startup founder coaching
Building a startup is both exhilarating and exhausting. When growth, funding, people and wellbeing all demand attention, I help founders evolve into the CEO role, clarify priorities, make steadier decisions and lead with confidence and focus.
Fast-track coaching
For senior executives in a hurry, my fast-track coaching provides practical, hands-on support. We focus on the decisions you face now, the conversations that matter and how you show up under pressure; without coaching theory or fluff.
