See how my human-centred approach has transformed careers and unlocked potential.

Unique methodology

Human-centred coaching that works

My approach prioritises authenticity and vulnerability, transforming your unique experiences into your greatest professional asset. No generic advice—just practical, action-oriented strategies tailored to who you really are.

Authenticity first

Embrace who you are, flaws and all. Your authentic story is your competitive advantage in a world of generic professionals.

Action-oriented

Immediate, tangible tasks and homework. We don't just talk—we implement frameworks that drive real commercial value.

Strategic frameworks

The "three-ends framework" and design thinking methodologies. Complex ideas simplified into actionable plans.
