My Services

I work with two distinct groups of people.

If you have landed here from elsewhere on the site, you will already know which one you are.

Women in FE

For women in FE who are stuck between their ambition and their guilt, I offer two 1:1 coaching programmes that go deeper than skills and strategy, addressing the belief systems and saboteur voices that are actually keeping you in the same place.

Senior leaders and organisations in FE

For senior leaders and organisations in FE who want to develop their middle leaders, I offer leadership training, DiSC profiling, and team workshops that address the real dynamics underneath the surface, not just the symptoms.

1:1 Coaching

Two programmes, both for women in FE, both starting with the Positive Intelligence foundation that makes the rest of the work stick.

Stop Thinking, Start Choosing

Stop Thinking, Start Choosing is for women in FE who know they want senior leadership but are caught between their ambition and their guilt.

Over six months, we build the mental fitness foundations, work through the identity questions and family conversations, and help you make a clear, confident decision about your next step without the 3am spiral.

Career Crossroads

Career Crossroads is for women in FE who are stuck and running on empty, but are not yet sure whether senior leadership is the answer or whether they need something else entirely.

Over four months, we quieten the noise, uncover what you actually want, and build a plan you trust.

Leadership Training and Development

For organisations that want to develop the leadership capability of their middle managers

Every programme is tailored to your team, your context, and the specific problem you are trying to solve.

Whether that is building confidence in new managers, addressing communication and team dynamics, developing women into senior leadership, or equipping your leaders to have the performance conversations they have been avoiding.

Nothing generic. Nothing off the shelf.

DiSC Profiling and Workshops

DiSC gives individuals and teams a shared, practical language for how they work together

It surfaces the patterns that are creating friction, builds genuine self-awareness, and creates the conditions for better collaboration and communication. Available as individual assessments, full team workshops, or a combination of both.

Not sure where to start?

The best first step is always a conversation.
