EXECUTIVE COACHING FOR THE WHOLE HUMAN
Because sometimes the thing getting in the way of your leadership isn’t your leadership
Working with Georgie requires dedication, vulnerability and a willingness to look within. Her approach allows for personal transformation, guiding clients through a journey of self-discovery that can lead to profound change and growth.
As a coach, Georgie isn't afraid to ask the tough questions that others may shy away from. She does so in a non-judgmental and supportive manner, helping her clients feel at ease while delving deep into their personal and professional challenges.
CLIENT FEEDBACK FROM
Transformation Director
“Coaching is not always a comfortable process and to succeed I would say it shouldn't be - but Georgie worked with me to enable the right pace and approach to surfacing and working through challenges and to leave each session feeling achievement and progress.”
“Georgie has a dazzling ability to listen to a lot of output and clearly and concisely playback, illuminating the really salient points for reflection and investigation!
Georgie created a safe space for me from the off and really helped me to trust her and the process and fully supported and encouraged me to tease out the real issues that I needed to think about and work on.”
A note from Georgie:
Executive coaching for the whole human.
Because people don't leave their lives at the office door.
You can be a brilliant leader and still be struggling at home.
You can be running a successful business while your marriage is falling apart.
You can be making big decisions at work while grieving someone you love.
You can be managing a team while quietly wondering who you are anymore.
And sometimes the thing getting in the way of your performance isn't your leadership.
It's life.
THIS IS WHERE MY COACHING GOES DEEPER.
I work with leaders, founders and senior professionals who want to understand themselves better, lead more effectively and create meaningful change.
Yes, we talk about leadership.
Performance.
Strategy.
Decision-making.
Teams.
Confidence.
Communication.
Business.
But we also talk about the things that don't neatly fit into a leadership development programme.
Relationships.
Divorce.
Grief.
Family.
Identity.
Loss.
Affairs.
Fear.
Change.
The things you might not say out loud anywhere else.
Because I believe you cannot meaningfully separate the person from the professional.
YOUR LIFE COMES TO WORK WITH YOU.
I've spent more than 20 years working in fast-growth and scale-up businesses, including five years on the Executive Board of Sipsmith, leading People & Culture through scale-up and acquisition.
I'm an accredited Executive and Team Coach to PCC level and my work is also informed by training in Grief and Loss coaching and Relationship and Family coaching.
But perhaps more importantly, I've been having these conversations with leaders for years.
I've sat with people while they have worked through career decisions, relationship breakdowns, bereavement, family difficulties and estrangement, affairs, identity crises and the messy, complicated business of being human.
And I don't believe everything has to be neatly fixed before we can move forward.
Georgie is a leadership and team coach with over 20 years of experience in fast-growth and scale-up businesses.

Georgie brings a unique perspective to her coaching, blending her knowledge of commercial strategy, business growth, and organisational psychology with a warm, people-oriented approach that leans into psychological and therapeutic models.

CLIENT FEEDBACK FROM
Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)
“If you are looking to step change your teams’ performance, you absolutely have to work with Georgie.”
Her executive experience means she can expertly marry the commercial imperatives of an organisation alongside her deep understanding of people needs and motivation.
She has an uncanny knack of identifying, grasping and addressing issues in a way no-one else will have addressed for you before, and will transform how your team interacts, communicates and trusts one another. More than that, she is a ton of fun and you won’t realise what’s possible until you’ve had her do an MOT on your team.
