Hello, I’m Vicky
I work as a holistic life coach, mentor and facilitator. Over the years, my own career and life have taken me in directions I never expected, which has given me a real understanding of what it can feel like when you're questioning what you're doing and what comes next.
​
I believe we don't always need someone to tell us what to do. Sometimes we need the space to talk things through, see things from a different perspective and reconnect with what we already know somewhere within ourselves. That's at the heart of how I work: helping you understand where you are, what matters to you and reconnect with your own inner compass.
My Story
I've worked as an accountant and teacher, supported people as a wellbeing coach within the NHS, built my own businesses, and more recently I've spent time working in a pub. Each of these experiences has taught me something different about people, life and the many different paths we can take.
​
Like many people, I haven't always ended up where I expected to be. In fact, where I am now isn't where I imagined I would be even a year ago, let alone several years ago. Life has a way of taking us places we couldn't have predicted, and I've learned that we can only really work with where we are in the moment, rather than trying to control where life will take us.
​
I've experienced my own periods of anxiety, uncertainty, grief, changes in relationships and career, and times when life simply didn't feel as though it was going to plan. Those experiences have taught me a lot about change, resilience and the importance of understanding yourself rather than simply trying to fit into what you think you should be.
​
All of these experiences have shaped who I am today. I bring the knowledge and training from my professional career, but also a very down to earth understanding of real life. I don't see myself as someone who has everything figured out. I'm still learning and evolving too, and I think that honesty matters when you're asking someone to trust you enough to explore their own life.
What Matters to Me
I believe everyone has their own path to follow, and that it doesn't have to look like anyone else's. We can spend a lot of time trying to work out what we think we should be doing, what other people expect of us, or where we thought we'd be by now.
​
What matters to me is creating a space for real, open conversations where you can be honest about where you are without judgement. I don't believe in telling people how they should live their lives or pretending I have all the answers. Sometimes the most useful thing I can do is listen. Sometimes it's asking a question, offering a different perspective or sharing something I've learned from my own experiences or from listening to others that may help you see things differently.
​
Most importantly, I want the people I work with to feel they can be themselves. Coaching should feel human, down to earth and like a conversation with someone who is genuinely interested in understanding you.
