I’m an executive and leadership coach based in Chiswick, West London…
I know this way of operating well.
For a long time, I was someone who just got on with things.
I fixed.
I figured things out.
I kept everything moving.
I cared about doing things well —
at work, at home, everywhere.
And without really noticing it,
I had taken on a lot.
From the outside, things looked good.
I had a successful career, a family, a full life.
I spent many years working in a fast-moving FMCG environment, across different roles and three countries.
But it didn’t always feel that way.
There was a time, especially after my third child was born, where everything felt like too much.
Work was demanding. Home was full on.
And I often felt like I wasn’t quite enough, neither at work, nor at home.
And there was this constant sense of needing to stay on top of everything.
I remember that feeling of never quite catching up.
Of always being slightly behind.
Of never quite doing enough — even though I was constantly doing.
I was tired.
Often impatient.
And even more often hard on myself.
I knew something needed to change. I just didn’t know what.
At the time, I thought the answer was somewhere in what I was doing.
Be more organised.
Take on less.
Handle things better.
So I made a change.
I left my job and started my own business.
And then life did what it does.
Covid hit.
I was home with the children, trying to keep everything going.
Trying to stay in control.
Trying to make something work, while feeling unsure and, at times, quite alone.
And that’s when I started to really question things.
Not just what I was doing, but how I was experiencing all of it.
I realised I missed working with people.
The conversations.
The thinking.
The depth.
Around that time, I came across coaching.
At first, I didn’t fully understand what it was. But something about it felt different.
I trained at Animas, Centre for Transformative Coaching, in London.
And through that, I began to see things in a completely new way.
And this was just the start.
What I began to see was this:
What needed to change wasn’t my circumstances — it was how I was relating to them.
That didn’t suddenly make life easy. But it changed something important.
I started to see more clearly what I was taking on that wasn’t really mine.
I began to relate to myself differently. And that changed how I showed up with others too.
My life is still full.
Three children. Work I care deeply about. A lot going on.
But it feels different now.
There’s more space. More steadiness. More clarity — even in the middle of everything.
I haven’t removed pressure from my life. But I don’t relate to it in the same way anymore.
I still overthink sometimes.
I just notice it more quickly. And I don’t get pulled into it in the same way.
One of the biggest shifts for me has been at home.
I listen more. I give less advice.
And we’re closer because of that.
This is the work I do as an executive and leadership coach.
I don’t see people as needing to be fixed.
I believe the clarity you’re looking for is already there.
My role is not to give you answers
or tell you what to do.
It’s to create a space where things slow down enough
for you to see clearly what’s actually going on and begin to trust your own thinking again.
Not by pushing harder. Not by adding more. But by seeing differently.
Alongside this, I continue to deepen my work through ongoing investment in my own development — being coached, learning alongside some of the world’s leading coaches, and through further training, including the AJC Coaching School and certification in executive function coaching.
This is something I continue to live — not something I’ve completed.
One thing I’ve learned:
Slowing down can speed things up more than pushing ever did.
If something in this feels familiar, let’s start with a conversation.
