Coaching for your Career, Wellbeing & Life

Do you want to feel empowered to live more confidently, with less worry and more clarity to go after what you want? Would you like to realise your potential and feel great about who you are and how you show up; perhaps in your career, your parenting or your relationships?

Are you ready to embrace change, to look beneath the surface, reflect and really understand yourself in order to create the life you want?

Don’t look back and wish you’d lived more true to yourself.

What my client’s say…

  • “I have struggled with low self-esteem and social anxiety and Jess has helped me to change the course of my usual behaviour and some negative patterns. Jess helped me to build my life according to my values and I’ve enjoyed rediscovering myself. I think Jess is a very careful listener, has a great attention to detail and is very empathic. It helped me to open-up more easily and thanks to that our sessions were very fruitful. The sessions were very warm, Jess was there for me to listen to whatever I had to say and helped me to understand what was going on and why. I think everyone should try it.“

    Naila

  • “As a result of Coaching, I felt much better equipped to deal with the issues I was facing and move through them in a positive way. Having a small space in my week to reflect on how I wanted to move forward was a great help at such a challenging time. Jess sets a very positive and open space without rigid parameters. She’s a great listener and I felt that she was really invested in my objectives. I felt I could be open and honest and go deep. Jess is a really great coach who can help with a wide range of issues and doesn’t have an agenda to push. If you want to explore an issue in a gentle and holistic way I’d recommend Jess.”

    Louisa

  • “Jess listens carefully and provides me with a safe and open space to discover myself. I’ve become more aware of my feelings and situation. I am clearer and more determined about my goals and how to achieve them. Jess is very understanding and really cares about you. She has a professional but easy manner that makes you feel comfortable and free from stress. I feel fortunate to have met Jess. I will definitely contact her should any other problems arise because I know she will help me gain clarity.”

    Arthur

  • “If you get the chance to talk to Jess, then you'll find her very attentive, supportive and understanding. Jess could tell how struggled I was in my thoughts; she asked me straightforward questions that made me question myself in return and wonder how I should be looking at what I wanted to do, from a completely different angle. Jess made me see the end results of my actual actions and enabled me to focus on the process of achieving it.”

    Shafiqua

  • “ I really enjoyed working with Jess. She is a skilful and confident coach, with a very gentle and warm manner, yet she was able to challenge me where needed. Over the course of a few months I felt that I travelled on a journey of self-reflection and direction. Jess supported me to gain understanding of my current professional challenges and helped me to find clarity around my professional values, options and future direction. I have been able to visualise a future for myself as a whole, including my work future, where I feel fulfilled and happy.”

    Louiza

  • “During our coaching sessions I was able to figure out what some of my biggest values in life are. This helped to explain a lot of things and cleared some things up in my mind. When you explain to someone else how you’re feeling and thinking about something it makes you understand it yourself on a whole other level. I would recommend Jess to anyone who wants to find out more about themselves. She created a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. I felt safe and that I could say whatever came to my mind.”

    Teresa

  • “Jess walks alongside me to set the agenda and explore my needs. She is a good listener, shows empathy, and encourages me when I feel down. I appreciate that she takes the time to listen to my issues with patience. The coaching sessions helped me to identify things that impacted or blocked the happiness in my life and I realised things about myself. I see improvements in every session.”

    May

  • “Jess is an excellent coach; she is very easy to talk to, with a gentle and encouraging approach. I found working with Jess very validating as she gave me plenty of space to talk and think and make my own decisions. She asked very insightful questions that moved my thinking on. As a result of coaching I have been better able to prioritise and am more aware of what is really important to me.”

    Kathy

  • "Jess was very easy to talk to and I felt listened to without any judgement. Jess has signposted and supported me with the current issues I've been facing"

About me…

Hi, I’m Jess. As a qualified Life Coach with a background in HR Management, I’m passionate about working with people and allowing them the space to think about what they really want, whilst celebrating who they are and empowering them to dream big and move forward to make positive changes.

I worked in HR for the majority of my career, before becoming a stay-at-home mum, training as a Coach and finally setting up a business. It’s taken time to get here because like many people, I’ve suffered from self-doubt and have a habit of holding myself back and questioning my decisions and ability. I’m all too familiar with perfectionism, people pleasing, anxiety and imposter syndrome and the barriers these can create in many areas of life. Becoming a Mum emphasised these even more and in the early days as a parent I felt I’d lost a real sense of who I was.

Coaching helped me hugely, to see past my own negative self-talk and to notice my inner critic, but not let it drive my decisions or determine my self-worth. I didn’t think I could have my own business doing something I love, whilst creating a lifestyle that works for me and my family; but I’m doing it, in a way that feels genuine and in line with who I am. I love my work and helping people feel good about themselves, in all areas of their lives.
