About Me

Having dedicated 30 years to working in the education system, and with 19 years as a senior leader in charge of behaviour and safeguarding, I know much about human behaviour, social dynamics and relationship building.

I’m a down to earth coach that supports leaders to understand themselves and their relationship with others so they can create a positive workplace culture; one that’s rooted in personal wellbeing and EI competencies. I believe if we relate better, we feel better and achieve more.

Knowing yourself, and reflecting on how you show up in conversations with others is where the transformation happens.

Leaders want teams that can innovate and fail fast. They need teams where psychological safety and communication are constantly being strengthened and that’s only going to happen if you intentionally commit to improving your EI competencies and interpersonal effectiveness.

Like most things of any worth, mastering relationships requires a gym mindset. You’re not going to become more relatable from one workout. You must keep consciously showing up for your relatedness to become impactful. No matter your circumstances, I’ll offer you some quick wins to deepen your connections and achieve more.

Minding the Relational Gap

I’m on a mission to develop emotional intelligence (EI). Whether you’re a leader, a friend or a parent, the world needs more people who listen and hear. So what exactly is emotional intelligence and why do we need more of it? Emotional intelligence is an essential tool for understanding oneself and others, enabling you to create conditions where people feel you truly care about them, their needs, and their personal growth. It’s about learning the skills of communication, connection and relationship strengthening - sounds easy, but there are so many ways to get it wrong.

Why is EI important? Your EI will determine your interpersonal effectiveness in all aspects of your life - how you develop new workplace relationships, achieve a thriving workplace culture, build long lasting friendships and navigate complex family dynamics.

Stick around and I’ll provide you with lots of tips and actionable tools to master your relationship skills so that when you connect with others, it will lead to personal growth, happiness and mutual wellbeing. Now that’s got to be worth exploring, right?….
