“Katie helped me develop my leadership skills and improve my performance under pressure while also focussing on my personal values.”

I have never worked with a coach before but found Katie instantly supportive with a great understanding of the agency world, my business challenges and what my goals were to make the most out of our time together. Katie taught me how to use a number of very useful tools which has helped me in my business and personal life. It’s been a wonderful experience and I highly recommend Katie to anyone who is looking for a highly professional coach with a lot of valuable experience and a wonderful approach to productive and supportive coaching.

I have seen tangible results from my time with Katie. She is professional, commercial and provides a healthy level of challenge.”

I have been working with Katie over the last 6 months to help refine how I think about leadership, playing to my strengths and resolving some specific challenges within my team. My sessions with Katie have become some of the most valuable and engaging hours of my week and I would strongly recommend Katie to anyone looking to invest further in themselves and get a very informed alternative perspective on any key questions

“KATIE has encouraged me to shine, find my inner confidence and rid myself of self-doubt”

Katie and I have been on a coaching journey together since last year. She has worked with me to break away from the self-inflicted habits that hold me back from being the person I want to be both professionally and personally. I recommend Katie as a coach to anyone who wants to reach the next level and believe that anything is possible. I am excited about what the future holds as I will continue to have Katie supporting me

“I would recommend Katie to anyone looking for support in their career development”

Katie had a very thorough approach designed to get fast results and her friendly style put me at ease immediately. She is an insightful listener and asks great probing questions. Katie was a pleasure to work with and I left feeling motivated with clarity around my goals and a clear plan of action.

Emma Patten , Head of Brand Strategy at Barclays (UK)


“Katie is the first coach I’ve come across that can help you to connect to your deep rooted self and help you to take practical steps that follow from that connection”

I’ve had gurus, coaches, mentors before and never had this balanced an approach. She is also someone that listens but knows when to give you some hard truth when you need it to keep on track. Ultimately, she makes a difference and working with her is useful not an indulgence. I’d highly recommend taking an hour of your week to work with her.

“THE LEARNING PROCESS DURING THE COACHING SECTIONS WILL SERVE ME WELL AS I CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN MY CAREER AND WILL DEFINITELY INFLUENCE POSITIVELY ON MY LEADERSHIP SKILLS”

Katie was great on supporting finding my values and the way forward to move on with my career and personal life altogether. The coaching section truly supported me on focusing on the way forward on my career and to find my priorities related to it.  

Katie helped me make the beginning of the transition smoother guiding me into thinking more deeply about the best way forward and helped me finding ways to control my anxiety related to these changes.

“ Katie’s approach immediately set me at ease and gave me the confidence to really look at my actions, attitudes and aptitudes.”

This was my first experience of one to one coaching and I approached it with some trepidation and – if I am honest – a little cynicism. However Katie is a great listener – a highly underrated skill – with an uncanny knack to zone in on the heart of the matter. And although always gentle Katie is no pushover and will not accept evasion or self-deception. She helped me confront some home truths and taught me to not always look for others to blame, but to examine my actions and consider whether they had led – or contributed – to a situation I was not happy with. It was not always an easy experience, but it was immensely useful and highly productive. I would actively encourage anyone to try it for themselves.

“I REALLY ENJOYED YOUR FLEXIBILITY AND ADAPTABILITY; YOU HAVE SHOWN A GREAT SENSE OF CREATIVITY, AND OPEN-MINDEDNESS, ALL WHAT I NEEDED”

I would like to thank you for simply who you are. 

I really appreciated your professionalism, your kind and gentle but firm approach. You never lost track of what the objectives were. Not always easy to stay on track when you have to handle a little fish like me. I was avoiding answering questions without realizing it. Today, I can see clear and tangible changes. We did a great job together. What else can we ask for? Thanks again for simply being you, it was a very good experience to be coached by you! 

Véronique Sommaro, HR, International Committee Red Cross, (Switzerland)


“KATIE’S COACHING HAS LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE. SHE TOOK ME ON A ROLLERCOASTER AND ASKED ME VERY POWERFUL AND CHALLENGING QUESTIONS, THAT I SOMETIMES DIDN’T WANT TO BE ASKED BUT ALWAYS WITH A LOT OF KINDNESS AND COMPASSION”

I was not sure what to expect when I signed up for coaching. I had 3 goals that I was struggling with. 3 months later, I am thrilled to say that I completed 2 of my goals.  My 3rd one, was the tricky one because I am now aware that I have done everything in my power to avoid dealing with it. She has literally been the catalyst for my recent successes and a great support on this journey. I have overcome many of my saboteurs, I feel that I have grown in both my personal and professional life and feel so much more confident. I cannot wait to continue the journey over the next 3 months. What an amazing experience it has been!

“KATIE IS AN ASTUTE, INTUITIVE AND INSIGHTFUL COACH WHO LISTENED TO WHAT I HADN’T SAID, AND WAS BRAVE ENOUGH TO LEAD ME SOMEWHERE I’D NEVER EXPLORED”

While uncomfortable, this has led to a much greater sense of self-awareness, clarity about where I've been holding myself back, and direction in terms of how I want to grow. Throughout the whole session, I felt very safe and that I could trust Katie completely. She wholeheartedly celebrates her clients and urges them on to be all that they can be.
