Hello, nice to meet you - I am Lilli!

After 15 years in school based education, including a decade in leadership, I realised the balance was off. I enjoyed teaching and I loved supporting and developing others, especially when I could coach colleagues and help them grow in their roles. Those moments were the most rewarding, but they were too few. I wanted more control over my time, more space to think, and work that left me energised rather than burnt out.

In my mid-30s, I was diagnosed with ADHD. By then, burnout had become all too familiar and the career I was in was not helping me to thrive. I knew something had to change. Taking the leap to leave education was both the hardest and the best decision I have ever made. It opened the door to the kind of work I had been craving, where I could focus fully on coaching and helping people move forward in ways that truly matter to them.

My Coaching Philosophy

I believe coaching works best when it feels like a genuine partnership. You bring your goals, challenges, and ideas. I bring curiosity, listening, and the tools to help you see things from new perspectives. Together, we create the space to explore what matters most, so you can make decisions with clarity and confidence.

My style is warm and honest, creating a space where you can be yourself without pressure or judgement. I am not here to hand you quick fixes or tell you what to do. Instead, I will help you work out what is right for you and support you in building the skills and confidence to make it happen. Whether you want to take the next step in your career, develop your leadership, or find a better balance in work and life, our sessions are about creating meaningful, sustainable change.
