My Journey to Empowering Entrepreneurs

My path to becoming a business coach wasn’t exactly straightforward. Looking back, I can see how each experience shaped my approach to helping business owners today.

I started my career in marketing agencies, where I worked with clients across many industries. This gave me a broad perspective on what works (and what doesn’t) in different business contexts. What I found fascinating was how often the same fundamental principles applied regardless of the industry.

After several years in agencies, I moved in-house to lead marketing for a practice area of an international law firm. Talk about a challenge! The legal industry has its own unique set of constraints, and I had to learn how to drive results in a highly regulated, traditional environment. This experience taught me how to adapt strategies to specific business environments – something that’s been invaluable in my career since.

I then joined a PropTech startup as Marketing Director. I found myself dealing with a much broader range of challenges. It was exhilarating and terrifying all at once. We managed to generate monthly inbound leads where before we had none, but I also experienced first-hand the toll that startups can take.

That’s when I decided to study business coaching formally at the Møller Institute, Churchill College, University of Cambridge. I wanted to combine my practical business experience with structured coaching methodologies to help business owners not just with what to do, but how to think strategically and build sustainable businesses.

I eventually left that startup and I launched my own SEO agency, working directly with business owners and in-house marketers to help them grow. What I noticed repeatedly was that many entrepreneurs and business leaders had solid ideas but struggled with implementation, strategic clarity, or scaling their operations efficiently.

Since then, I’ve been focused on developing my own businesses and growing my coaching practice.

My Mission: Empowering You to Succeed

I believe that entrepreneurship should be rewarding both financially and personally. Too many business owners find themselves trapped in high-stress, low-satisfaction situations despite their hard work and expertise.

My mission is to help entrepreneurs build strategic, sustainable businesses that generate consistent results without the constant overwhelm.

Core Values

Integrity

I’m transparent about which strategies work, which don’t, and what you can realistically expect in your business journey. No smoke and mirrors – just honest insights to guide your growth.

Diligence

Business success isn’t built on quick fixes. I believe in thorough analysis, a thoughtful strategy, and consistent execution to uncover and address every challenge for sustainable growth.

Stewardship

I treat your business potential and resources as if they were my own, focusing on strategies that build long-term value and drive meaningful success.

Generosity

I freely share my expertise and insights, empowering my clients and the broader business community to learn, grow, and succeed together.

Servant Leadership

I listen first, then lead. Your aspirations shape our journey, ensuring that every strategy is driven by your unique goals and vision.

Ethics

I adhere strictly to ethical business practices and professional standards, fostering trust and integrity in every aspect of our collaboration.

Faith

I believe in setting ambitious, achievable goals and pursuing them with unwavering conviction, always keeping the broader vision of your business in focus.

Vision

I continuously research, test, and refine strategies to anticipate market trends, ensuring that your business stays ahead in a rapidly changing landscape.

Relationships

I view client relationships as meaningful partnerships, nurturing long-term connections built on trust, collaboration, and mutual success.

How I Help You Achieve Results

My coaching approach is built around the TGROW model (Topic, Goal, Reality, Options, Will), which provides structure while remaining flexible enough to address your unique business challenges.

What makes my coaching different is the combination of strategic thinking with practical implementation support. Many coaches focus solely on mindset or accountability, which are important but insufficient on their own. I bring a business strategist’s perspective to coaching, helping you identify the highest-leverage opportunities while providing the tools and frameworks to implement effectively.

My Coaching Process

  • Comprehensive Assessment: We start by gaining clarity on where your business stands today, identifying strengths, challenges, and growth opportunities. This creates a solid foundation for strategic planning.
  • Strategic Prioritization: Rather than trying to fix everything at once, we identify the 2-3 highest-impact areas to focus on initially. This prevents overwhelm and accelerates results.
  • Customized Action Planning: We develop concrete, achievable action plans tailored to your specific situation, resources, and goals.
  • Implementation Support: Regular coaching sessions provide guidance, problem-solving, and accountability as you execute your plans.
  • Measurement & Refinement: We track progress against clear metrics and refine strategies based on real-world feedback and results.

What I’ve found working with clients is that this structured yet flexible approach creates both quick wins and sustainable long-term improvements.
