Services
I’m a coach and trainer dedicated to helping leaders and teams in the insights industry thrive. With over 20 years of experience in market research, I’ve walked in the shoes of the people I work with, giving me a deep understanding of the challenges they face. My mission is to help insights leaders and their teams find the sweet spot between high performance and happiness, fostering both personal and organisational success.
I offer leadership development coaching, bespoke workshops, and training programs tailored to the unique needs of insights professionals. These cover topics like navigating change, building resilient, high-performing teams, enhancing emotional intelligence, and handling difficult conversations. I also deliver motivational talks and webinars designed to inspire, energise, and provide practical tools for success.
Through my work, I aim to bring clarity, confidence, and focus to leaders navigating complex challenges. Whether it’s unlocking innovation, improving team dynamics, or simply creating space to thrive in a fast-paced environment, my goal is to help individuals and organisations grow in meaningful ways.
About
Professionally, I’ve spent over 20 years in the insights industry, transitioning from researcher to coach and trainer. My passion lies in helping people unlock their potential and find clarity in their work and lives. Originally from London, I've travelled extensively - living in Dublin, New York and Madrid - currently based in Bahrain in the Middle East since 2020 - this has given me a fresh perspective on navigating cultural nuances and building connections across diverse environments.
Outside of work, I love immersing myself in creative and restorative activities. Yoga helps me stay grounded, while drawing and painting allow me to express myself in ways words cannot. Travel fuels my curiosity and broadens my understanding of the world, and I’m always seeking inspiration from the places I visit.
I share my home with my husband and two cats who reflect my journey—one from London and another rescued from the streets of Bahrain. They remind me of the importance of adaptability and compassion.
My personal philosophy blends resilience, creativity, and the courage to grow. Whether I’m working with leaders to navigate change or exploring new hobbies, I believe in embracing challenges with curiosity and optimism.
