What do you want?

If someone asked you right now what you want from life, could you give them a clear answer? Can you picture a future for yourself where you feel connected, fulfilled, and in alignment with your sense of purpose? Can you imagine a time when you’re channelling your energy into realising your own dreams?

I KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO HIT THAT POINT WHEN THE PAIN OF STAYING THE SAME OUTWEIGHS THE FEAR OF MOVING ON. WHEN YOU KNOW THINGS NEED TO CHANGE, BUT YOU’RE NOT SURE OF YOUR NEXT STEPS. I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT CAN BE TO HEAR YOUR OWN VOICE IN ALL THE NOISE

If you’re one of those caring, committed and amazingly competent women I encounter so much in my life and coaching, I know how important it is to you to feel you’re contributing to a mission you believe in. But I also know how often this comes at the expense of your own ambitions and wellbeing. And I know that sometimes you feel overwhelmed and it all gets to be too much.

By the time my clients come to me, they often feel burned out and disillusioned. They’ve reached the end of their tether trying to make change in a working environment where they feel unfulfilled or unsupported, or a personal situation where they feel undervalued or under-appreciated.

After so many years of feeling that their sense of identity and worth is connected with how they help others, those clients have often lost sight of what it means to fully be themselves. They feel unclear about what it is they actually want.

I see so much potential in these women. That’s why I love helping them to find clarity around the stories they want to tell, so they can step into a life of more joy and fulfilment on their own terms.

I support them to remember the parts of themselves they’ve pushed to the sidelines, and to bring them back to centre-stage.

I want to remind you that it is possible to reconcile your passion for being in service of others, with your desire to live a life that doesn’t compromise your values, your boundaries, or your sense of self.

LASTLY, A WARNING:

Breaking sometimes long-standing patterns of behaviour isn't easy. I’m committed to supporting you through this process of transformation, but this kind of process can be unsettling and even painful. So, if you’re looking for something that’s just going to reaffirm how you already feel and make you comfortable with where you already are, my programmes probably aren’t for you

WHY WORK WITH ME?

What makes me different from other coaches

I’m not one of those coaches who tells you to do what I did so that you can get to where I am. The last thing in the world I would ever want to hear is “I want to be like you.”

I have no interest in crowbarring people into cookie-cutter programmes that might not be right for them. I know you’ve had quite enough of bending yourself out of shape to fit into the boxes other people have made for you. I design frameworks to enable your transformation, but I know that everyone brings different backgrounds, life experiences and levels of privilege, so I always leave space to be truly responsive to what every individual needs to progress and to thrive. It’s not me, it’s you!

A Bigger Vision

CREATING COMMUNITY

Whatever you want to do, you don’t have to do it alone. My mission is to build a community of women to gather and to learn from our experiences, share our challenges, and celebrate our successes. When awesome women come together, we’re unstoppable

RECLAIMING JOY

I want to help women reconnect to the joy in what they do, whether that’s in their life, their leadership, or their sense of self. Yes, change can be tough and scary, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun along the way!

UNLEASHING IMPACT

I believe in making the world a better, more compassionate place, whatever that looks like for you. And I believe that you can bring about that world without compromising what you want and who you are. Because, when women fulfil their potential, the whole world benefits

You created a safe space and led with kindness and care.

Artistic Director, Theatre

...you felt like you could bring anything to the sessions, that you would be heard, and that you’d be given lots of opportunity to listen and support the other group members.

Catherine, Marketing Director

Working with Annette made me realise the gap between how I feel about my 'life' life and my working life, and that I can close that gap!

Museum Director

It was so useful to have someone impartial and supportive to talk things through with and bounce ideas off of, and in just an hour I left with much more clarity about my priorities and how I was feeling. In the end it helped make a difficult decision feel simple.

Miriam, Theatremaker

Annette held the space with honesty, grace and kindness.

Suzanne, Cultural Thinker

Your facilitation creates such an easy-going space, but also one that is full of dynamism and possibility.

Amy, Theatremaker

Coaching is like walking into a warm, safe, cozy room. You can drop your bags of worries and sit back and talk it through with someone who supports you without judgement.

Alexa, Marketer

Coaching gave me a space to articulate my hopes and fears about my professional life and career advancement. The best part is that the coach is an unbiased non-judgemental professional who was able to not tell me what to do but to help me reflect on what I am doing and how I have the strength within me to steer my path to success.

Senior Academic

It helps identify what is important to you, what you really want, what may have been holding you back.

Sandra, Producer

Working with Annette helped me to approach some of the issues in my working life that felt insurmountable but just needed a different perspective. After the sessions, I feel the fire in my belly reignited and am excited about what's next.
