Professional coaching for working mothers
Professional coaching for working mothers navigating ambition, identity, leadership and change — so you can move forward with clarity, not just cope.
Matrescence is the profound physical, psychological and emotional transition a woman goes through when becoming a mother.
For working professionals, that transition can be especially complex — caring responsibilities, career ambitions, workplace expectations and personal values all have to be held at once.
If you are a working professional with caring responsibilities, I can work with you to explore what might need to change, and give clarity to your unique situation.
WHERE WE MIGHT START
This might be re-calibrating your professional identity, or planning progression aligned to your values.
It might simply be structured headspace to become unstuck. Together, we might explore how to:
Develop your professional confidence to ensure you greater agency
Feel heard, and validated within your internal culture
Align or renew and refine your purpose and direction
Manage your limited resources, especially time management
Face a specific challenge or improve a professional relationship
Develop your leadership style
IS THIS FOR YOU?
For ambitious mothers who want space to think clearly.
You're balancing professional ambition with caring responsibilities
Your role, identity or priorities have shifted since becoming a mother
You want to make a confident decision about your direction
You feel stretched, unseen or stuck in your current organisation
You're preparing for progression, change or a new challenge
You want generous, intelligent support from someone who understands both leadership and working parenthood
MY APPROACH
I will cheerlead you to be professionally ambitious, address any limiting beliefs, and ensure you commit to action — a flexible and generous approach, based on exactly what you need.
Investing in yourself through professional coaching can often create considerable impact in a short series of sessions.
Clarifying what you want next
Identifying patterns, blocks or assumptions holding you back
Preparing for a difficult conversation
Building confidence after leave or career disruption
Exploring promotion, leadership or progression
Making decisions that align with your values
Creating practical next steps that fit your real life
