Why Work with Me

Running a small business is rewarding, but leading people often feels like a whole new challenge.

I work with small business owners who never set out to be “leaders,” but now find themselves responsible for teams, employee motivation, and workplace wellbeing. I understand exactly how that feels, because I’ve been there myself.

Over 30 years of leadership experience, from education and voluntary organisations to coordinating my son’s care team, has taught me what it really takes to lead.

Like you, I’ve had to learn how to:

  • Lead with confidence, even when I doubted myself.

  • Trust others, instead of doing it all alone.

  • Inspire people by recognising what matters to them.

  • Balance wellbeing with daily demands.

Alongside this real-world experience, I bring professional training in leadership, stress management, mental health & wellbeing, coaching, and motivation — giving you support that’s practical, people-focused, and tailored for small business owners.

With me, you’ll get:

  • Straightforward, no-jargon guidance.

  • Tools that fit small businesses, not big corporates.

  • Support that’s tailored to your people and your goals.

When helpful, I can also offer optional hypnosis and NLP techniques to support confidence, reduce stress, or shift unhelpful patterns – always used gently and only if you want them.
