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

To support leaders thrive in 2026, I am opening four additional 'North Star' intensive slots this quarter.

Our Services: Coaching

Ready to lead differently? If you’re rethinking how your organisation creates value, moving toward a product model, or figuring out how AI fits purposefully into your business, coaching can give you the clarity and confidence to move forward. At Northshore, I partner with leaders who are navigating complexity and change. I offer thoughtful, tailored coaching that blends encouragement with honest challenge—helping you make sense of what’s next and lead with intention.

Together, we’ll shape a path that aligns your values, strengths, and vision with the realities of modern product-led, AI-enabled organisations.

Is this the right time for coaching?

Coaching is most powerful during moments of transition, growth, or strategic inflection. You might be ready if:

  • You’re shifting your organisation toward a product operating model

  • You’re exploring how to integrate AI responsibly and strategically—beyond hype or tools

  • You want a thinking partner as you establish, scale, or transform a product, design, research or innovation practice

  • You’ve stepped into (or are preparing for) a more senior leadership role

  • You’re being asked to lead through ambiguity—and want greater clarity and confidence

  • You’re feeling burnt out, misaligned, or unsure how to evolve your role

  • You’re considering a significant career or life transition and want to do it intentionally

Wherever you are, coaching creates space to realign, build momentum, and move forward with clarity and purpose—toward your own True North.

Who I work with

My clients are often CxOs, VPs, Heads, Directors, and Practice Leads across Product, Design, Innovation, and Data. What connects them isn’t the title—it’s a shared commitment to:

  • Leading with clarity and care

  • Creating real customer and business value

  • Evolving how their organisations work

What we focus on

Our work typically spans three interconnected areas: people, products, and practice.

Common themes include:

  • Evolving to a product-led operating model

  • Embedding AI in ways that are ethical, intentional, and value-driven

  • Setting clear strategic direction—and bringing others with you

  • Strengthening cross-functional collaboration and decision-making

  • Coaching and empowering leaders and teams to thrive

  • Designing adaptive, resilient ways of working

  • Establishing or maturing product, innovation, or design practices

  • Navigating promotions, role changes, or organisational shifts

  • Reconnecting with purpose when leadership feels heavy or unclear

Think of our sessions as a dedicated space to reflect, sense-make, and grow—supported by someone who understands modern leadership challenges firsthand.

Outcomes clients see

Clients use our work together to:

  • (Re)shape their product operating model

  • Lead AI adoption with clarity and confidence

  • Set up their own business

  • Step into senior leadership roles with greater presence

  • Move from burnout to alignment

  • Make intentional career pivots

  • Build leadership practices rooted in authenticity, impact, and care

  • Navigate major career or life transitions with direction and confidence

How I coach

There are no rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks here. Instead, we use a co-design approach (drawing on my background in user-centred design, product leadership and org transformation) to shape a journey that is uniquely yours.

Some clients prefer deep, reflective sessions shaped by powerful questions. Others value a more mentoring-style approach, grounded in real-world product leadership and organisational transformation experience. Most choose a blend, and we’ll adapt as your needs evolve.

Coaching is an active, collaborative journey that thrives on your curiosity and commitment. Because true leadership is grown from the inside out, you remain in the driver’s seat. You bring the topics, the challenges, and the willingness to explore; I bring the mirror, the map, and the honest challenge. While I’m here to support your growth every step of the way, the most profound breakthroughs come from the work you do—the reflections you sit with and the brave actions you take between our sessions.

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

Experience Leadership in Real-Time:
Equus Coaching

For leaders who want to deepen self-awareness and presence, I also offer Equus Coaching, an experiential approach co-facilitated by horses.

Standard coaching happens in your head; Equus coaching happens in your body, in nature. By partnering with horses, leaders receive immediate, non-judgmental feedback on their presence, energy, and boundary-setting, as well as a safe space to experiment.

Locations: London, UK, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, New York and Germany

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

When the way you work is holding the strategy back.
If collaboration feels hard, decisions stall, or teams struggle to align around outcomes, it’s often a sign that your operating model needs to evolve.

Northshore partners with leaders to redesign organisations for product-led, AI-enabled ways of working. Together, we examine how structure, decision-making, capabilities, and incentives come together to deliver customer and business value—and then intentionally reshape them to support your strategy.

This is deep, systemic work that creates clarity, alignment, and resilience where it matters most. Learn More

Workshops + Retreats

Create alignment, build capability, and move forward together.
Our workshops and retreats are designed for leaders and teams who want to step out of day-to-day delivery and intentionally strengthen how they think, collaborate, and decide.

Each session is tailored to your context—helping you solve real problems, create shared understanding, build new capabilities, and leave with clarity on what to do next. Learn More

Thought + Practice Partnership

When insight isn’t enough, and you need progress.
If you’ve identified a specific challenge—shaping a product or AI innovation practice, pressure-testing a decision, or transforming capability—our Thought & Practice Partnerships offer focused, high-impact support.

These short, outcome-driven engagements centre on a clearly defined problem or initiative. We can act as a trusted advisory partner, or work alongside you to design and deliver—whether that’s defining roles and career paths, standing up a new practice, or hiring your first product or design leader.
