Certified Professional Coach

 

My first career was in broadcast television working in the fast-paced and pressurised environment of transmission, programme promotion strategy and channel launches. At the BBC I worked as a transmission Network Director before moving to Channel 4 TV to launch the FilmFour film channel. I then moved on to head up Media Planning at The Discovery Channel. Throughout my TV career I adopted a coaching style of leadership which resulted in a track record of recruiting, building and training effective and happy teams. 

 

In 2013 I needed new challenges and I wanted to run my own business so I decided to change career. After rigorous post-graduate training in Business and Personal Coaching, (University of Chester Business School), Enneagram psychometric profiling (Integrative Enneagram), and gaining a gold standard Professional Coaching Certification (PCC) from the International Coaching Federation, I founded my own coaching and consulting practice, The Authentic Life Company based in London.

 

Parallel to my television and coaching careers, I have spent the last 20 years researching and studying self-awareness, ancient wisdom traditions, Eastern philosophy, and the modern science behind effective personal development and good living. As a result I've done the leg-work so clients benefit from my two decades of research and training.

​

I now support leaders and senior professionals on a powerful journey of self-discovery by combining coaching and consulting with a unique blend of modern science and timeless human wisdom. I bring insight, empathy and my own broad experience to successfully empower clients to create the sustainable change they are looking for.

​

Through my Authentic Life methodology, I specialise in helping clients develop self-awareness, self-confidence, personal effectiveness and motivation. I am passionate about the impact of self-inquiry supported by powerful coaching conversations to enable transformational personal and professional growth.
