Why does corporate life drain the joy out of work? In this post, I reflect on what so many leaders are searching for—and how coaching can help bring it back.

Wading through the sands of corporate life left me drained and stuck. Coaching helped me - and now I help leaders find clarity, traction, and joy in the journey.

What if the biggest barrier to your leadership growth… was the story you’ve been told about what a ‘real leader’ looks like? Let’s rewrite that myth.

A group ride. A punctured tyre. And a team that quietly stepped in. In this blog, I reflect on the myth of carrying it all and what high-performing teams do instead: share.

In this blog, I explore how coaching helps surface those beliefs, reframe them, and unlock new possibilities — using tools like Byron Katie’s four liberating questions.
