About Me

I'm Kathryn, a qualified leadership, career and life coach based in Southampton, supporting clients locally and online across the UK. Throughout more than 24 years working in education, training, senior leadership and people development, I've supported people through leadership challenges, change, self-doubt, career decisions and moments when they needed to rediscover their confidence. Seeing people grow has always been the part of my work that has given me the greatest sense of purpose. That's what led me to coaching.

​

I spent more than two decades in education, progressing into senior leadership and becoming a Vice Principal with responsibility for teaching, learning and staff development. Throughout that time, coaching and developing people was at the heart of my work, from aspiring leaders and early-career professionals to experienced senior leaders. I later made my own career transition, moving from education into training and development within the Royal Navy and private sector. That experience gave me a different perspective on leadership, professional development and the challenges that come with stepping into something new.

​

I've also experienced coaching as a client, so I understand the value of having someone who gives you the space to think, without judgement, and helps you see possibilities you may not have considered yourself.

​

My coaching approach

Clarity - empowering you to recognise your strengths, explore your possibilities and take ownership of the decisions that matter to you.

Confidence – asking thoughtful questions and gently challenging assumptions that may be limiting your thinking.

Change – helping you turn insight into practical, achievable action so you can move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

​

I'm here to help you create the space to think about what matters to you. Pause. Gain perspective. Move forward with clarity, confidence and purpose.
