    I turn leadership teams into a force that drives the business forward. Together, we build a team that makes clear decisions, holds each other accountable, and moves with confidence. Because strong businesses don’t just need great leaders. They need great leadership teams. Effective leadership is about shaping a culture of trust, collaboration, and innovation that drives sustainable business performance. If you don't have that within your Leadership Team, you can guarantee it doesn't exist in the wider business. Building strong leadership teams ensures that your organisation can adapt, grow, and succeed.Here’s why prioritising leadership team alignment is essential for your business. With a background spanning law, international sport, technology, people, startups, and leadership roles, I bring a wealth of real-world experience to my work. This diverse journey has given me a deep understanding of the unique challenges leaders face across industries, especially in high-growth and dynamic environments. I’ve navigated uncertain career paths, adapted through leadership transitions, and thrived in high-pressure situations. These experiences allow me to genuinely empathise with my clients. I know firsthand the frustration of being pulled into operational details, managing underperforming teams or working under dysfunctional Leadership Teams. Having “been there,” I offer guidance that’s practical and rooted in reality—not just theory. I’m committed to helping leaders build cohesive, high-performing teams with a focus on trust, accountability, and open communication. My goal is to empower leadership teams to operate strategically and sustainably, so they can drive their businesses forward with confidence

    I'm a Personal Development Coach and I help people to overcome blocks that they are experiencing in their personal or professional lives while they deepen their self-awareness and connection to themselves so that they can get to where they want. We work with those repetitive patterns that keep showing up in their lives (i.e procrastination, fear of speaking up, people pleasing, fear of failure, triggers with other people and anything that keeps on coming up repetitively as this shows the pattern). In my approach, I embody deep compassion and understanding and I meet the person where they are at in that moment. I focus on my clients holistically, acknowledging all parts of them, as well as helping them connect to their inner guidance so that they find the answers within themselves and make long lasting shifts in their reality. I use a blend of tools such as NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Parts Work and Life Coaching, helping people to get to the root of their issue so they can process their emotions and then shift the perception over the issue, bringing true transformation in their lives.

    I am a qualified executive coach holding an MSc in Coaching for Behavioural Change. I come from a commercial background and have significant experience in sales and sales leadership roles within the medical devices and healthcare sector. Prior to this I trained as a nurse. I am passionate about helping people to discover themselves, unlock their creativity and witness them grow through the power of evidenced coaching techniques. I utilise a broad spectrum of interventions and this would be discussed in a discovery call as each enquiry and individual are just that; unique! I am a compassionate individual who believes that everyone has the innate potential within them to live the life, have the career, relationship and more, that they truly desire. Sometimes it just needs a guiding hand. Coaching is always led by you and facilitated by me. If you find yourself stuck in a rut, feeling challenged in gaining traction in your career or relationships, I can help you get unstuck. I am also available for fractional business development/sales opportunities. Whilst I understand that we may not always be a fit, I would appreciate a yes or no from you if we have moved forwards into discussions, I will afford the same to you. This really helps me keep my little business well planned and thriving. I look forward to seeing you Warmest wishes Zoë
