‘Jen is the coaching superhero
you didn’t know you needed until now’
Work relationships are nuanced. They exist in a system. There is complexity, power dynamics, and always more than one truth in any situation. In today’s pacey world of work, there’s often no time to process the fallout or make a plan of how to move forward.
I’ve learned a thing or two about navigating relationships in high-stress environments, from chairing a high-profile fashion industry gala or taking a group of management consultants to the summit of Kilimanjaro as an events manager in the 2000s, to coaching leaders through a wide range of perplexing and exhausting challenges, which I’ve been doing since 2011.
Over the years I’ve built the toolkit, the insight and the empathy to support leaders work through, process, and recover from the challenges that have knocked them sideways — a bullying boss, a difficult team member, a restructure, a period of intense stress.
In my early twenties, recovering from a period of ill health, I discovered Emotional Freedom Technique which I now weave into my work. This therapeutic tool means I can do something most coaching cannot: not only help you navigate the present and plan for the future, but actually clear the ghosts of horrible work experiences — recent or long past.
My clients are talented, creative people. Sometimes the stress, the pace, or the sheer weight of it all has got in the way. They come to me feeling stuck or depleted, and they leave feeling calmer, lighter, with more energy and able to see the path ahead. I’m here to help you recover your footing — and have the impact you want to have in the world.
I’ve been coaching since 2011, which means I’ve accumulated 15 years of experience working with leaders caught in the middle: directors, heads of service, and CEOs navigating complex board relationships, organisational change, and the particular pressures that come with senior roles.
My qualifications span leadership, team and career coaching, neuroscience, mental health first aid, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT – also known as tapping). In 2024 I became an accredited Resilience Dynamics® practitioner, adding a powerful framework for helping clients manage energy, reduce stress, and create environments where people actually enjoy their work – and get things done.
I hold the Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) — one of the most respected accreditations in the profession — and work within their ethical code, attending regular supervision. As well as 1-1 work, I deliver management and leadership programmes to order, design and facilitate team away days and I’ve even been a guest lecturer at Sheffield University Management School.
If you have questions about how coaching works, whether 1-1 or for a leadership team, what’s involved, or whether we’d be a good fit get in touch. I’d love to hear from you.

Strategic Communications and Global Brand Manager
Head of department in the public sector
My sessions with Jen have been nothing short of amazing. Before each session I begin feeling like I have a huge mountain to climb but at the end I come out with a clear map and a way around the mountain that feels much easier to navigate. From channelling my inner super hero to learning about EFT there are so many things that Jen has taught me that I can now keep in my coaching toolkit to help me prepare for those difficult conversations or meetings. Jen is the coaching superhero you didn't know you needed until now, she can help you recognise and unleash your very own set of superhero skills so you can be prepared for whatever the world of work may throw at you!
