Hi I’m Cat… 

I’m a qualified Transformational Coach. I’ve spent 15 years working as a HR professional, working collaboratively with business leaders. 

My role was to take people through journeys. I’ve helped people to recognise their own unique strengths, to overcome obstacles, and to create the right support, so that they could unlock their potential. 

I wanted to use my experience to help more people make changes in their own lives that they’re excited about. So, I completed my ICF-accredited coaching qualification with Animas, and I haven’t looked back since!

My personal journey with coaching started with a difficult challenge in my career. 

For a long time I was stuck in a rut and gradually becoming less happy. I tried many different ways to move forward and make a change but after each attempt, I ended up in the same place I started. I felt frustrated, exhausted, powerless. I stumbled upon a life coach and, curious, I booked my first session. 

With the support of my coach I started to see new opportunities and possibilities. These possibilities had been there the whole time but it took me changing my outlook from the coaching before I was able to see them. 

After just a few sessions I felt a renewed sense of purpose and developed a greater trust in myself. It took some time but I got out of that rut and learned a lot about myself on the way. Although I did get out of my rut at work coaching also had far reaching impacts on many areas of my life. I improved my relationships with friends and family, looked after myself better and got rid of the negative self talk that had always been there before (to name just a few things).

Realising just how powerful coaching is I decided to use my professional and personal experience to help empower others.  

My mission now is to help people unlock their potential and illuminate new possibilities, so they can move forward with confidence, and purpose. 

 And (if it’s not too big a goal) - maybe changing people’s lives for the better will make positive changes in our world.
