Executive Coaching
For professionals, founders and senior leaders who want to think clearly, lead confidently and make decisions that feel deeply aligned
It’s surprisingly common for professionals to reach a point where their career looks successful from the outside… but inside, it doesn’t feel quite as good as they’d hoped.
Maybe you’ve lost a bit of confidence.
Maybe you feel stuck, or can’t quite work out what’s holding you back.
Or maybe you’re realising that the role you’ve worked so hard for doesn’t feel as fulfilling as you thought it would.
This is where executive coaching creates the space for clarity, confidence and meaningful change.
My coaching blends 25 years of HR and corporate life, deep somatic attunement, neuroscience-informed insights, and a calm, steady way of working that helps you explore what’s been hard to articulate, so you can access the insights, answers and direction you’ve been circling around for months.
This isn’t about quick fixes or performance targets. It’s about understanding yourself better so you can make decisions that feel right and lead with more ease.
How Coaching with me works
A confidential, non-judgmental space
You have very few places where you can be fully honest. This is one of them.
Somatic attunement
I notice shifts in your energy, posture, tone and facial expressions and reflect them gently, helping you hear the parts of yourself you might normally override.
Powerful questioning & deep listening
You’ll leave every session with insights, direction or actions that move you forward.
Neuroscience-informed insights
I use simple, well-understood psychological and neuroscience-related concepts to help explain why certain patterns and behaviours start happening and what to do with them.
Accountability without pressure
This isn’t about forcing performance to please me. It’s about creating momentum in the direction you actually want to go.
Who this is for
My clients are usually:
Senior leaders who want more clarity and calmness in their lives.
Founders dealing with the emotional and strategic weight of running a business.
High-achieving professionals whose career looks ‘successful’, but doesn’t feel fulfilling to them.
People going through a period of change, whether that’s in their role, their team, or in life outside of work.
Individuals who want to get clearer on what drives them, what matters, and what they want going forward.
What you can expect to gain
A clear, grounded understanding of what actually drives you.
Better decision-making and reduced overthinking.
More confidence in your leadership and communication.
Feeling calmer and more in control, especially under pressure.
The ability to manage pressure without burning out.
Stronger boundaries and more intentional choices.
A career direction that feels intentional, not accidental.
“Kate is an inspiration and brilliant at what she does. I entered into her coaching programme without more than a hope that it would help me understand myself more and help shape decisions for my future. I couldn’t have been more wrong. It’s genuinely been life changing. I haven’t changed who I am and yet I’ve changed entirely. I feel mentally stronger and emotionally braver.
I have also used her HR expertise to prepare for an interview which enabled me to have the best interview conversation of my life. Whether I get the job or not is feeling like a minor detail compared to how I feel about my future.
The investment in yourself might bring up a number of feelings, it did for me, but my advice would be go for it. There will be tough questions but always turn out to be the ones that give the biggest breakthrough.
Kate genuinely cares about helping you uncover your potential in a way that is personal and authentic. I feel exceptionally lucky to have had her guidance.”
“Kate is a highly empathetic coach who is thoughtful and encouraging in her style. She employs a holistic approach to help her clients consider things they may not otherwise have unearthed alone. Having worked with Kate on a significant career transition I felt supported but fully owning of my discoveries and decisions throughout the process.”
“I have been working with Kate as my executive coach for the past 12 months, and her guidance has been invaluable. My primary goals were to refine my values, gain clarity on my life’s direction, and define my ‘why’. The journey has been deeply emotional yet very rewarding, and Kate’s coaching approach fosters insightful and meaningful conversations—professional in structure, yet deeply personal in connection. Kate has a rare ability to recognise and understand emotions when they are raw, offering empathy and guidance that have helped me gain a deeper understanding of myself. She sees beyond surface-level narratives and helps uncover the truths that truly matter. If you are looking for a personable and intuitive coach who can nurture self-discovery, I highly recommend Kate.”
“Working with Kate was my first experience of coaching, and I’m so glad I did it! Her enthusiastic coaching style is uplifting, motivating and encouraging. In our sessions she was always full of life, energy and commitment for the work we were doing. She has a high level of emotional intelligence, which is at the core of her coaching. I would certainly recommend Kate as a coach to friends and family, and as a matter of fact already have! Thank you Kate for your enthusiasm and insights, my life is certainly better as a result of our work together.”
“From my very first meeting with Kate she approached my concerns, frustrations and struggle to work out my path in life with patience, attention and an endless sense of humour. I came to find our weekly sessions invaluable as sticking to action steps and goals is challenging and often tiring. Kate was always attentive to keeping me on the right path and I felt she was always there if I needed to chat about anything.
I could not be happier and more grateful to Kate that I took this Coaching programme, she is exactly what I needed: grounded, empathetic and willing to give me as much time as I needed to talk things through and progress at my own pace. Since working with her I have found I am more focused in my career and my confidence and happiness has increased immeasurably.”
“I turned to Kate for coaching after becoming stuck in a rut at work and feeling that something I couldn’t quite put my finger on was holding me back from realising my full potential. The weekly sessions helped me to focus on the things that really mattered to me and as a result of the coaching with Kate I have regained my confidence and zest for life, enabling me to become the best version of myself and to think big in terms of my dreams and goals! I am no longer afraid to step outside of my comfort zone, opening myself up to new experiences and ways of thinking and finding the adventure in everyday life. These changes have had a positive impact not only on my own well-being but also on the people around me. Kate is a joy to work with, from her upbeat manner to her ability to explain concepts and offer examples that are easy to relate to. I genuinely looked forward to our weekly sessions and I thoroughly enjoyed the coaching programme. Kate has helped me to bring about positive changes in my life and for that I am very grateful!”
“Kate supports you to identify and achieve your work and personal priorities. She listens deeply, encourages without ever dictating, and offers perspectives that help you overcome challenges and move towards positive outcomes. She’s never judgmental, just quietly insightful and genuinely supportive.”
“Having worked with her for several years Kate was the obvious person to turn to when I wanted some professional help. Her empathy and understanding made it easy to discuss sensitive issues. She enabled me to view things without upsetting me or ever suggesting my thoughts were not valid. She further showed me how to reflect on past experiences and current attitudes and adopt approaches which can’t erase but allow a more positive attitude.”

My Coaching Philosophy
At the heart of my coaching is a simple belief; people already hold far more clarity and capability within them than they realise. My role as your coach isn’t to give you answers, it’s to help you access the ones you’ve been circling around but not quite put your finger on yet.
My own life experience has shaped this philosophy. Recovering from Guillain–Barré syndrome gave me a deep, lived understanding of the mind–body connection and the ways our thoughts, emotions and physical state influence one another. It’s why I care so much about helping people slow down enough to notice what’s really happening for them.
I believe we’re at our most insightful and creative when we step out of our busy, analytical mind and into a calmer, more grounded state. That’s where the real breakthroughs happen and it’s why Theta Waves has its name; because the Theta brainwave state is where insight and creativity naturally occur.
Coaching is a partnership. It’s built on trust, curiosity and a genuine belief in your resourcefulness.
It’s warm, calm, occasionally challenging but always in service of helping you find the version of yourself that feels more aligned, more confident and more you.
This is coaching without ego or pressure. Just space, depth and connection, so you can think clearly, lead confidently and make decisions that genuinely feel right.
