Testimonials
At a time when I was feeling significant overwhelm “trying to do it all”, Daisy helped to me to understand that the pressure that I was feeling was driven entirely by internal narratives. She helped me to see that I was in fact in control of those feelings and directed me towards simple, tangible steps that I could take to reframe my thinking so that I could continue to push my business forward, without the unnecessary weight I was once feeling.
Kat, wanting to manage competing pressures
I came to Daisy to address my ambition for generating a passive income. She skilfully questioned me, prompting reflection on my motivations and ideas, and challenged me in ways I couldn't have on my own. Through her patient guidance and insightful inquiries, she helped me navigate closer towards my goals.
Jo, wanting to expand her income
I started working with Daisy after I found myself in a stressful situation at work. I was so stressed and overwhelmed with my competing priorities of work and family. I was never able to be fully present with either and just ended up feeling guilty. A project I was working on came to an end and I was completely exhausted. I knew something had to change but I didn't know where to start. Daisy helped me identify my priorities and clearly say what I was looking for in my next career step.

Professional Background
Before becoming a coach I spent worked in both the private and public sector. Originally I trained as an management accountant and started a career in finance which lead me to consulting. I really enjoyed consulting but it was a constant high pressure fast paced work life and once I left I realised how unsustainable it was in the long run. I joined the Civil Service and had the opportunity to work in the Cabinet Office, Defra, and DHSC on a number of strategies and policy areas, including EU Exit, Covid response and The National Food Strategy.
What drew you to coaching?
During my pregnancy, I was signed off work due to burnout and anxiety. It was such a stressful time, but what added to the stress was that I began to question everything that formed part of my sense of self.
I had always been really career driven and now I wasn’t working.
I could no longer do so many of the fun things that I felt made me, me.
After my son was born, people stopped asking about me as an individual, everything related to my son. I felt like I stopped existing as me and just existed as Mum.
When I shared my feelings with other mums, I realised burnout was not an experience unique to work, but something almost every mum, no matter how old their child was, was going through in some aspect of their life.
I realised that I wanted to empower women to find their balance and navigate the transitions of motherhood.
