Executive Coaching for everyone
Strategic, grounded coaching for leaders and aspiring leaders in any environment
I work with people from all walks of life. Whether their responsibility is to lead large global teams or small community causes, they are looking for an independent listener, and their own ‘thinking partner’ for professional or personal goals.
Executive coaching offers structured space to think clearly, challenge assumptions and strengthen leadership capability in a sustainable way.
Wherever you are in your journey, it would be a privilege help you develop the steadiness, self-awareness and strategic perspective required to lead well over the long term
I support you on your way

Leadership development at all career stages
Executive capability includes the top of an organisation, but not exclusively.
In complex, fast-moving environments, leadership is distributed and decisions are made across functions. Responsibility is carried at multiple levels.
For individuals and organisations to perform into the long term, leadership capacity needs developing throughout the workforce; including but not confined to the CEO.
I work with:
- Senior executives, CEOs and directors
- Mid-level leaders managing increasing scope
- High-potential talent preparing for progression
- Technical specialists transitioning into people leadership
- Founders scaling teams and responsibility
I find that these professionals often operate in demanding roles without a structured space to reflect and develop. This could lead to
- Decision fatigue & procrastination
- Reactive leadership
- Burnout among high performers
- Reduced strategic clarity
- Talent attrition at critical levels
Targeted executive coaching can mitigate these risks. By strengthening individuals’ clarity, emotional regulation and strategic perspective, leaders at all levels are better equipped to manage the demands of dynamic enterprises.
The wellbeing of all of your people and the sustainability of your business or not-for-profit is directly impacted by effective leadership throughout your organisation.
A Grounded Approach to Leadership Support and Development
My work combines executive coaching frameworks with mindfulness-based awareness and is both neurodiversity and trauma informed. I find this means we can work at the level of strategy and behaviour, but also at the level of understanding how stress may impact performance and wellbeing, nervous-system regulation and emotional clarity. The foundations of effective leadership.
The results I see are therefore both practical in the short term and effective into the long term.

"Emily supported me to stretch and challenge my own thinking around how I can develop my career goals whilst remaining present as a parent. Our sessions provided me with an opportunity to jump off the hamster wheel, talk, reflect and process my thoughts. As a working parent this is something I rarely do" ...

Support that is shared
I want my work to make a difference, not only to my clients directly but also to the hidden and unsupported causes and champions in our midst. The charity founders, community activists, local forces for good or campaigners for change. Grassroots initiatives and heaps of good will in every location in the UK support us in ways that we sometimes take for granted.
I set aside 5% of my earnings to offer low-cost and fully subsidised coaching for people who might otherwise not have access to this important resource.
It’s a small way of keeping myself grounded and keeping the work I do rooted in fairness, community and care.
If you choose to work with me, you’re helping extend that support to others too.
