Coaching

Coaching centres around goal-oriented development for individuals ready to make positive changes in their lives.

Our Services

Coaching Subscription Package (Renews monthly):
Our monthly subscription package supports Organisations looking to book 8 or more Coaching sessions a month for their team.


Give your team members the option to book and schedule their own appointments (1-1 Coaching, Executive Coaching or Group Coaching options) with direct access to our booking calendar. Great to revive team morale, bring focus or as part of a further employee benefit package.

Executive Coaching (for individuals):
Designed to help those specifically invested in bringing around change in their leadership, management or workplace environment.

Perhaps you are looking for support as you launch a new product,  in the process of designing your next idea or planning your strategy for the next 3 months and beyond?

Executive Coaching can also cover more personal things like developing your Leadership style, investing in your own Personal Development or helping your team to succeed.

1-1 Coaching (for individuals):
1-1 Coaching is designed to help a person explore and work towards a new goal or change in their life.

Topics we might cover together can be vast but might include goals such as finding your confidence, dealing with anxiety, focusing on career progression or making more time for your hobbies and general well-being.

Coaching can build awareness and help keep you focused on achieving your goal and can often uncover some useful understanding about who you are and what might help to motivate you again in the future.
