Leadership isn’t a job title, it’s a way of operating.

Let’s find yours.

Introducing Your Coach

Hi, I’m Gabrielle

EXECUTIVE COACH | LEADERSHIP STRATEGIST | FACILITATOR

Your identity forms the foundation of everything you do and how you do it. Exceptional leadership begins with owning it.

I help leaders unapologetically harness their identity because everything changes when you truly understand who you are. Decision-making becomes sharper. Pressure transforms into fuel, rather than friction. Career growth stops being a gamble and begins to feel inevitable.

With 10+ years of experience in talent development, I’ve seen what separates those who thrive and those who stagnate, and it’s exactly what I help you master.

My mission

The world doesn’t need more imitators, it needs more authentic leaders.
Too many senior leaders are bogged down by silent self-doubt, trying to follow someone else’s leadership style. The pressure of constant performance is draining, yet there’s a fear of showing up as their true selves. My mission is to disrupt this cycle and help you embrace the confidence and courage to lead as yourself without the mask.

Have questions?

How 1:1 coaching can really help you make progress.

  • My style is warm, supportive, and pragmatic—with a no-fluff, no-nonsense approach.

    Think of the quote: "I come in peace, but I mean business."

    Expect thought-provoking questions that challenge you, time to reflect, and the rare luxury of having someone fully focused on you. I bring a wealth of tools and techniques, carefully selecting the right ones to suit your unique challenges.

  • While coaching, counselling, and mentoring all support personal and professional growth, they serve different purposes:

    • Counselling/Therapy: Focuses on exploring past experiences to understand and heal from emotional challenges.

    • Coaching: A forward-focused process designed to help you gain perspective, set goals, and create meaningful change in the present.

    • Mentoring: Involves receiving informal guidance from someone with expertise in a specific field to help navigate future career or leadership challenges.

    I blend coaching and mentoring, drawing on over 10 years of talent development experience to help you create lasting transformation.

  • Successful coaching requires five key ingredients:

    1. Rapport – A strong connection is essential so that you feel comfortable opening up.

    2. Trust – Coaching works best when you're willing to be honest and a little vulnerable.

    3. Commitment – Sessions need your energy and dedication. That means prioritising our time together and following through on actions between sessions.

    4. Reflection – Growth happens between sessions. Jotting down insights, observations, and challenges will accelerate your progress.

    5. Openness to Change – You're here because something needs to shift. Coaching is about exploring new approaches, stretching your thinking, and embracing fresh perspectives.

    Before we start, we’ll have a discovery call to ensure we’re a great fit. I only take on a limited number of clients to provide the focus and attention you deserve.

  • Absolutely! Many of my clients have utilised their companies L&D budgets to fund or part-fund coaching as part of their professional development. I wrote a blog about this, as so many people are unaware that they have access to this kind of funding and the positive benefits for employers. You can read more about why investing in coach is valuable for employers on my blog: The ROI of coaching

    I also offer payment plans, please get in touch to discuss.

  • Yes, I bring both professional qualifications and over a decade of real-world leadership and talent development experience:

    • Master’s in Human Resource Management (Kingston Business School, Merit)

    • Accredited Elite Life Coach (Level 5, IAPC&M)

    • Certified Mental Health First Aider (MHFAE, Mental Health First Aid England)

    • Trained in a range of psychometric and leadership development tools (Hogan, MBTI, DiSC etc)

    If you’d like to know more about my credentials or approach, just ask!

  • Perfect! That’s exactly what the Rapid Kickstart Coaching offers. We’ll have a discovery call first to build rapport and so I can hear more about your challenge, and then I’ll invite you to share your responses to some questions via email so I can prepare for our session.

  • — TESTIMONIALS —

    “Working with Gabrielle has been instrumental in my career progression, the experience was both challenging and rewarding at the same time. Gabrielle has this hidden talent that gets you to dig deep into your own personal experiences and values to create your own solutions. It wasn’t your typical ‘coaching’ experience, I found sessions to be authentic through conversations which encouraged thinking and reflection on my performance.”

    “One of the stand out moments for me was releasing that striving for perfection could sometimes impact my work/life balance. Reflecting on what a reduced effort would look like initially scared me but it highlighted I was driving additional workload my own way with unnecessary actions. I learnt a lot from the sessions with Gabrielle and have taken so many positive steps forward as a result. Gabrielle is supportive in her approach, honest and I found it really easy to build a rapport which helped me to get the most from our sessions.”

    “I achieved so much from working with Gabrielle. I've changed the way I speak and act at work and hold myself as a leader within my organisation. I've changed personally to a huge degree, starting to set better boundaries, having challenging but vital conversations with friends and family, and most importantly starting to live the life I really want - and have begun to work really hard to 'protect my peace' in life.”

    “I’ve previously been very sceptical of coaching, but Gabrielle totally changed my mind. The biggest ‘aha’ moment was when Gabrielle helped me reframe my childcare arrangements and that they enabled me to work full time rather than made me a hindrance! Gabrielle has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I felt comfortable as if I was talking to a friend with always zero judgement.”

    “Never have I got so much out of so little time. I was surprised at how easy it was to accept my faults and flaws when I was open with someone who wasn't judging me. It resulted in changing from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset.”

    “Gabs has helped me identify opportunities and challenges and develop new techniques through supportive tools. I was surprised by the instant connection we built and how Gabs understood me immediately, which was amazing. Gabs is an individual who truly cares about her work, puts you at the heart of it and through her fantastic skills can really help develop/coach you to achieve great outcomes.”
