Testimonials
Looking at all this laid out, I am shocked. I am so happy with where I am at in my career, and so much of what was possible was thanks to you and your support— not only the concrete accomplishments, but the shift in my mindset, which has led me to pursue my career from a place of peace, abundance, and assurance. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Client E., Lecturer & Facilitator (US), working on career confidence & progression
Go for it! Working with Ella has truly been life changing. Having a non-judgemental space to talk openly about your feelings and concerns provides so much more clarity than you can achieve on your own. Ella has recognised patterns in my thinking and behaviour that I wouldn't have noticed myself, and now that's been identified the issues/problems have become much easier to manage/solve.
Client F., Head of Customer Relations (UK), deciding whether or not to change jobs
Sessions with Ella helped me to build confidence in my ability to improve my career and move myself out of a work 9-5 environment I felt was draining my energy. She was great at helping me work through ways to follow a path that would make me happier. I’d highly recommend Ella as a coach if you’re not happy with the direction your career is going or feel stuck and unsure of where to take your career next.

Professional Background
I am a former Charity CEO. Taking on this role aged 30, I was the CEO at Total Insight Theatre, a charity that uses the arts to transform the lives of children & young people. Working with multiple stakeholders, I delivered effective leadership for this charity that operates programmes that successfully address a range of social issues, including mental health, unemployment, crime, low confidence and self-esteem. I oversaw the delivery of multiple programmes and pioneered positive change as well as executed the charity’s strategy. I also managed a team of 20 people, including interim staff, freelancers, volunteers and interns, upscaling to 70 people to drive key projects while ensuring the team received professional development to secure outstanding results and maximise staff retention.
Delivering effective project management of charity programmes, I oversaw budgeting and resourcing as well as led all project phases from negotiation and funding through to delivery and monitoring and evaluation. I collaborated with multiple partner organisations and agencies, successfully working with schools, youth centres, police forces, social services, Local Authorities and grant-making bodies. I also maximised programme reach by developing and executing a wide-ranging marketing and communications strategy, securing positive marketing, coverage and reception, including on BBC Radio and social media.
What drew you to coaching?
Having become a charity CEO aged 30, and having always put fulfilment & purpose at the centre of my career, I am now an Accredited Transformative Coach & (EFT) Tapping Practitioner, helping Career Women, Parents, Professionals returning to work & PhD Survivors who have run out of steam tap into what their gut feeling is telling them it’s time to change – and create the Game Plan for their next big move.
We do this work together gently & soulfully as well as with courage, focus & decisiveness – one coffee at a time.
I truly believe that you are worthy of, deserve & can achieve to live the life you dream of, enabled by the work you do. So I’m the coach for you if:
- You’re done with feeling like your life is just the same old boring sh** but get overwhelmed by thinking how to change it
- You’re craving the freedom of a better work-life blend so you can feel more content & fulfilled in your life
You’ve been following the rules & doing all the ‘right’ things to pay the bills but feel like a hamster on a wheel & not lit up - You know you want more from life but have zero clue where to start because it all feels too confusing & complicated. So you procrastinate & end up doing nothing which leaves you feeling more frustrated as time continues to tick by
- You’re desperate to get clear on what makes you feel happy, alive and fulfilled & how to make this your reality
