a spa for the minds of working mothers - work out the kinks with Sam, a certified career and life coach
You need space to think
You know that feeling when you’re in the sea or a pool and you tip your head back into the water and you can simply float? How peaceful and calm it feels. all you can see is the sky.
To get that feeling you have to tip your head back. That’s not always a comfortable feeling to start with.
I will support you to tip your head back and float - to take the steps you need to take to reach the calm, clear, confident place you want to get to. Even if those steps are a little uncomfortable to lean into at first.
Do you have an idea or plan that you’ve not put into action? A niggle that something needs to change? Or perhaps you feel that confidence is holding you back?
Or perhaps it’s your team who need to work through their thinking.
Whatever it is that you want to feel clearer, calmer and more confident about, I can help create the thinking space needed to get you there.

What topics can I bring to coaching?
Career development
You know you want something different or something more, but perhaps you’re not sure exactly what or how to get there?
Or perhaps you’re planning a job hunt and looking to make sure you’re well prepared to apply, interview and choose your next role.
I will support you to find, and get hired into, the right role for you, right now.
Return to work
You’ve taken some time out from formal employment for your family or perhaps for illness and now you’re about to start the transition back.
Or perhaps you’ve recently returned but it’s all still feeling a bit messy.
I will support you through the transition back to the workplace using tried and tested coaching methods to get you feeling comfortable and confident at a pace that suits you.
Work/life coaching
Whatever you’re struggling with - work/life ‘balance’ (we can talk about what’s possible!), perfectionism, people pleasing, feeling like an impostor, working parent life - coaching provides the space to see these challenges from a different angle and make some progress.
Some clients like to start with fortnightly coaching and then move onto monthly check-ins. Some people find a one-off deep dive really helpful.
