Testimonials
What brought you to coaching?
I came to coaching as I was preparing to change jobs. I knew it was the right move for me professionally, but I was feeling anxious about handing in my notice and stepping into something new. I wanted support from someone who understood my background, my ambitions, and the bigger picture of where I wanted my career to go.
What changed as a result?
Working with Emma made a huge difference. I was able to manage the resignation process and transition into my new role with far less anxiety and much more confidence than I would have otherwise. I felt fully supported by someone who genuinely understood my experience and aspirations. On my first day, I felt prepared, confident, and clear on how I wanted to show up. The adjustment into my new role has been seamless, and I credit that to the preparation and perspective I gained through coaching. Emma also helped me understand the deeper reasons behind some of my past career decisions, which has given me greater clarity and confidence in navigating both my current role and my longer-term career path.
Who would you recommend it to?
I would recommend coaching with Emma to anyone going through a career transition or feeling uncertain about their next step. It’s especially valuable if you want thoughtful, trusted support from someone who takes the time to truly understand you and your goals.

What brought you to coaching?
A lack of senior female role models in my organisation having the time/inclination to facilitate coaching, and my previous experience of working with Emma and knowing how fantastic she was.
What changed as a result?
Challenged my perspectives and encouraged me to look at things in a way I wouldn’t haven’t otherwise. It also opened my eyes to other learning opportunities which were in front of me but which I didn’t previously pick up on.
Who would I recommend coaching to?
Anyone who is willing to talk openly and honestly about what they want to work on or explore.

What brought you to coaching?
I came to coaching at a point where I was questioning whether the career I’d worked so hard for was still right for me, while also navigating real mental health challenges. I needed a structured, confidential space to make sense of what I was feeling and to test the assumptions driving my choices. I chose Emma because she combines deep empathy with candour and a nuanced understanding of how law‑firm politics actually works.
What changed as a result?
Through coaching with Emma, I learned to challenge my assumptions, quieten my imposter syndrome, and properly advocate for my skills with clarity. Emma helped me frame difficult conversations, set boundaries without compromising my career, and navigate the firm with practical strategies instead of anxiety. I’m more confident, more intentional, and I don’t think I’d still be (happily!) in this career without her coaching.
Who would I recommend coaching to?
Anyone in law or professional services who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or paralysed by indecision. If you’re facing tough conversations, considering a pivot, or want clear‑eyed guidance without the sugar‑coating but with warmth, honesty and absolutely zero judgement, Emma is for you. She listens deeply, reflects back what matters, challenges you when it counts, and supports you to take action and get support you might otherwise not be quite ready to accept.
