Less performance. More presence.

​

I've always been fascinated by people — how we behave, how we communicate and what happens when we find ourselves in situations that challenge us.

​

I trained and worked as a professional actor before moving into coaching, facilitation and role play. Looking back, the connection between the two careers feels obvious.

​

As actors, we learn to step into different roles. In everyday life, we do much the same thing. We adapt, protect ourselves, try to fit in and learn how to be the person we think a situation requires.

 

Sometimes those roles help us.

Sometimes they get in the way.

 

My work is about helping people become more aware of those patterns and find ways of responding that feel more natural, confident and authentic.

​

What I do

 

I work with organisations and individuals through:

​

Coaching for Work & Leadership

Helping people develop confidence, self-awareness and the ability to work effectively with others.

 

Workshops & Facilitation

Practical, interactive development built around the real challenges facing your people.

 

Role Play

Bringing learning scenarios to life and giving people the opportunity to practise important conversations before they happen for real.

​

My style is warm, curious and practical. I like people to think, experiment and sometimes laugh — but always with a clear purpose.

​

There is very little sitting back and listening to me talk.

​

A little more about me

​

I'm an ICF-accredited coach, Integral Development Coach and Action Learning facilitator, with a background in professional acting and improvisation.

​

I've worked with people across healthcare, policing, financial services, education, housing and other sectors, from one-to-one coaching through to leadership programmes and large-scale training.

​

I'm based in Suffolk and work both locally and with organisations across the UK.

​

​

Working with others

​

I also collaborate with a small number of trusted specialists when their expertise adds something valuable to a client's work.

One of these is Rebecca Liljendahl, an ICF-accredited coach and CIPD-qualified HR and Learning & Development professional, specialising in habit transformation and workplace wellbeing.

 

Rebecca and I have worked together on organisational development projects and workshops, where her expertise complements my own. Through her business, Habit Sense, she also works with companies, charities and the NHS to help people make practical, sustainable changes to their health and wellbeing.
