Your renewal starts here
Achieve your potential with a "thinking partner"
My Coaching Purpose
Renewal and change can be scary. People offer great advice and even look for a quick fix, but what if you saw things through a different lens?
​
What If…
​
-
You already have all that you need
-
You are not lost at all, you are still exploring
-
It’s not about becoming anything, but un-becoming everything that isn’t really you.
​
Let me help you dust off those layers and remind you of who you are. Let's open up a new conversation together.
​
“I already have what I need?"
Phew, that must be a relief hey! I imagine you are already pulled in many directions, and you think you have to TRANSFORM yourself too… blimey, now that’s a tall order!
​
Let me create an environment where you can just show up and be, think and reflect.
I partner with you to help bring greater awareness, insight, understanding your purpose and motivations for change. Creating practical solutions is key to helping you adapt and transform, and step into your real potential.
​
Your inner wisdom and intuition are already there, as your "thinking partner" let me help you realise this and grow in confidence.
​
I was once scratching my head. What changed? I was gifted a thinking environment- no judgement. I had to make myself responsible, take the pressure off and breathe. No overnight miracles, I had to become my own cheerleader and ask for help.

My Story
As the daughter of a businessman and a social worker my stars were always aligned to marry the best of ambitious organisational goals with a strong sense of empathy and support for individuals and teams.
​
My long held dream was to create a coaching offering that enabled me to combine my experience of the corporate world with coaching and leadership skills. I entered the world of work over two decades ago, fresh out of university with a degree in Geography, a passion for learning and a dream of having a Filofax and an office with a glass lift (how different the reality was and I don't even like lifts!).
My career journey has been exciting as a senior leader in financial service organisations, making change happen - leading integration programmes, launching new products, shaping cultural change, delivering coaching initiatives and onboarding emerging talent.
One thing that has stayed constant is the thrill of helping individuals and teams transform. At the heart of my coaching is an ability to understand the challenges and barriers to change through my personal experiences - as a colleague, a leader and as a parent.​
​
As engaging as my journey was, I eventually did become stuck...
What did it feel like when I was stuck?
​
-
Tiring, and I ate too many biscuits which probably didn't help!
-
I asked everyone, including the kids “ what should I do when I grow up?”
-
I wanted someone to tell me the answer, so if I failed it wasn’t my fault
-
I had a good support network, but I still struggled to juggle it all
-
I felt pretty rubbish, like I had let myself down, blown it, written off all hope of finding a career I loved.
​​
So here I am offering to help you navigate through your renewal or career challenges. No judgement, a warm heart, champion cheerleader, a half pint fuller with a dose of northern reality and grit. I am passionate about doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
​
I don’t believe in fairy tales, but I do believe in little changes making a big difference, helping people find what is already there and opening up a different conversation. I am not a solver of your problems, I help you navigate your change. The best thing is, when I am gone, you still know how to find the answers – good hey?
​
I have the corporate badge, I don’t like to flash it – 26 years, but blimey I learned a lot along the way that may be of use to you:
​
-
I understand how it feels to be human in a business system – the highs and the lows
-
I understand how people learn and grow, as a creator of leadership, talent and development offerings
-
I understand what a good culture feels like, and also what it can feel like when you and a culture don't align
-
I understand how it feels as a working mum to be pulled in a million directions and still show up
-
I love working with anyone wanting to explore new beginnings or going through a change.

Coaching Offerings
I work with individuals, teams and organisations to create transformation. Each journey is unique and so I tailor the coaching offerings to met this need. This can include working on specific situational challenges, creating roadmaps for change, mindset and behavioural work as well as one-off consulting offerings for organisations.
​Whether it's a one off session to work through a challenging issue you are facing in the workplace, or a series of sessions as part of a transformational journey. Dedicated 121 sessions provide a highly targeted opportunity for clients to maximise the impact of their coaching.​​
Simon E, Financial Services
It felt very easy to build up a relationship and rapport with you. You are engaging and able to quickly understand and interpret what people are talking about and tease out my thinking to get to the bottom of the issue in a friendly, approachable and experienced way.
Claire N, Business Outsourcing
I have had some experiences with coaches before and the difference this time is your experience in the corporate world. You are able to understand the issues I have been working through and encouraged me to think differently. That feeling of being stuck has eased.

Leigh H, Financial Services
I’ve had a few coaching sessions with Jane and can honestly say they have been time well spent. She quickly builds rapport, actively listens and asks challenging questions. She tailors the sessions around you and really got me thinking deeply about the topics we covered and I came away with some really clear action orientated plans.
Thanks a million Jane, can’t wait for our next session.
