Nobody wants to show you the hours and hours of becoming. They’d rather show you the highlight of what they’ve become.

Our Services: Coaching

Ready to make a change? Whether you're at a crossroads, craving more purpose, or ready to level up, coaching can offer the clarity and momentum you need. At Northshore, I provide thoughtful, tailored support to help you navigate what’s next with a blend of encouragement and honest challenge. Together, we’ll chart a path that aligns with your values, strengths, and vision — whether you're refining your direction or making bold moves in your career.

How do you know you’re ready for coaching?

While almost anyone can benefit from the space and support of coaching, it tends to be most powerful during times of transition, reflection, or growth. You might be ready to work with a coach if:

  • You’re transforming how your business delivers value to its customers

  • You're looking for a thinking partner to support and challenge your practice leadership — whether you're establishing, scaling, or transforming your org

  • You’ve recently stepped into a leadership role and want to build confidence and clarity

  • You’re ready to develop the skills and mindset to grow into a bigger role or land a promotion

  • A milestone (like a work anniversary or performance review) has you asking, what’s next for me?

  • You’re feeling disconnected or burnt out in your current role and unsure how to move forward

  • You're considering a big shift — a new role, a new business, or a new life stage

  • You’re craving space to nurture your personal and professional growth with intention

Wherever you are in your journey, coaching can help you realign, build momentum, and catch the next wave — with clarity, courage, and a strong sense of direction as you chart your course toward your True North.

What can you expect from partnering with Northshore?

Many of my clients are Heads, Directors, VPs, CxOs, and Leads in Design, Product, Innovation, and Data — but what connects them isn’t their job title, it’s a shared desire to lead with clarity and intention and create purposeful impact.

Together, we explore what matters most to you across three broad areas: people, products, and practice.
Topics might include:

  • Building strong, cross-functional collaboration to drive meaningful outcomes

  • Setting strategic direction — and bringing others along with you

  • Coaching and empowering your team to thrive

  • Strengthening your organisational agility and resilience

  • Planning your next move, promotion, or transition

  • Evolving your business or operating model to adopt more modern, adaptive ways of working

  • Establishing or maturing your innovation and product development practice

  • Reconnecting with purpose when things feel off course

Think of our sessions as your dedicated space to reflect, reset, and grow, backed by someone who truly understands your challenges firsthand and supports you every step of the way.
My clients have used our work together to:

  • (Re)shape their product operating model

  • Step into more senior leadership roles with confidence

  • Start new ventures or shift into more aligned career paths

  • Move from burnout to clarity

  • Make intentional pivots, like moving from UX to product

  • Develop leadership practices rooted in authenticity, impact and care

  • Land roles that better reflect who they are and what they want

  • Navigate big life or career transitions with a greater sense of direction

I don’t follow a one-size-fits-all framework. Instead, I draw on my background in user-centred design to help you clarify your goals and shape a coaching journey that’s uniquely yours. Together, we’ll co-create a development plan that’s tailored to your needs and pace.

My style is nurturing, collaborative, and grounded in possibility. Some clients prefer open, reflective coaching sessions driven by powerful questions. Others appreciate a more mentoring-based approach, where I share insights and strategies from my experience as a product, design and transformation leader. Most often, it’s a blend — and we’ll shape it as we go.

I’m accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and adhere to its Code of Ethics.

How does the coaching arrangement work?

Coaching with me is a collaborative journey — one that takes commitment, reflection, and the courage to jump in.
I offer two coaching packages designed to meet you where you are and support where you’re headed.

Choose from:

🌟 The Spark Sessions

  • 6 sessions over 3 months

  • Perfect for diving into a specific challenge, clarifying your next step, or igniting momentum around a clear goal.

  • We’ll meet over Zoom every other week to spark insight and keep you moving forward.

🧭 The True North Sessions

  • 12 sessions over 6 months

  • Designed for deeper, more sustained transformation. Whether you're navigating career change, creative growth, or big-picture questions, this package offers space to explore, reflect, and commit to meaningful progress over time.

  • We’ll meet over Zoom every other week.

Once we’ve wrapped up your Spark or True North Sessions, you have two options to keep the growth going:

🔁 Momentum Sessions (Bi-weekly)

  • Stay in high-growth mode with ongoing sessions every other week. Ideal if you want to continue building on the progress we’ve made—keeping things sharp, strategic, and always moving forward.

🪴 Sustain Sessions (Monthly + Quarterly)

  • A lighter-touch, high-impact option for long-term support. Includes one coaching session per month, quarterly deep-dive strategy calls, and asynchronous access between sessions—so you have a trusted advisor in your corner when it matters most.

No matter which path you choose, you’ll continue to benefit from insightful reflection, meaningful accountability, and experienced partnership tailored to your goals.

I’ve found that meeting every two weeks gives you the space to reflect, experiment, and integrate new ideas. While I won’t necessarily assign homework, you’ll likely leave sessions energised with steps you’re excited to take, and time between calls makes room for real progress. Prefer to meet weekly? Just let me know.


Curious if this is right for you? Let’s chat! Whether you’re exploring coaching for the first time or looking for ongoing support, I’d love to hear more about your goals.

Step Out of the Office and Into Nature—Meet Your New Coaching Partner

I’m a certified Master Equus coach© trained over three years with the pioneering Institute for Equus Coaching©. This unique and powerful approach to personal and professional growth is co-facilitated by horses and certified life or executive coaches.

Equus Coaching offers an experiential way to deepen your self-awareness and leadership. With a horse as your coaching partner, you’ll gain insight into how you show up, strengthen your communication, and learn to set and hold boundaries with clarity and confidence. Horses respond to our energy and intention in real time, offering honest, immediate feedback without judgment.

Curious to experience it for yourself? I offer taster sessions at my location (just half an hour north of London), through partner sites in Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, Seattle, Long Island and Germany, or I can connect you with a trusted Equus Coach in your area.

If you’re interested to find out more, schedule a chat with me, learn more about my Equus Coaching practice or read more about how I coach leaders with horses


Please note that all Equus coaching takes place on the ground. It does not involve horse riding, and no prior experience with horses is necessary.

Consulting

Have you experienced difficulty collaborating, making decisions, or creating alignment around goals? If you’re ready to reflect on how all of the parts of your company come together to deliver customer and business value, Northshore can partner with you on org design. Together we’ll help you evolve your operating model—your structure, decision-making, ways of working, and capabilities—to support your strategic goals. Learn More

Workshops + Retreats

To support your growth as a leader, we have crafted retreats for emerging and senior leaders to learn and connect with your peers.

We offer a wide range of workshops aimed at building capabilities in your organisation to learn new approaches and techniques. Topics include: Practice Leadership, Product Discovery, Assumptions & Experiments, User Journey Mapping and Outcome-based Goal Setting.

We facilitate tailored workshops to help you solve problems, create alignment and make decisions.

Thought + Practice Partnership

If you’ve pinpointed a specific problem—whether you need a sounding board and thought partner or help building out a practice within your organisation—you may benefit from one of our thought and practice partnership options. These tend to be shorter engagements that centre around one well-defined problem or project. We can serve an advisory role or roll up our sleeves and help you create job descriptions and career paths or hire your first leader. Learn more
