About
If you asked me to define leadership, I'd tell you it's about 'Bravely showing up as your best self, and inspiring and supporting others to do the same'. But that's not the whole truth.
I stand by it, but that neat and succinct definition doesn't capture the whole reality of leadership. And I'm all about keeping it real.
Bravely showing up as your best self is neither neat or succinct. It's messy and challenging, it's ever evolving and it's filled with gifts and surprises. It's energising at times and frustrating at others.
And, it's all so worth it!
I love helping others achieve life-changing growth and have an impact that really matters. I did it as a teacher, I did it as a school leader, and now I'm thrilled to have crafted a specialised role that plays right to my strengths: helping others be better humans and better leaders.
I work every day with courageous humans who know that in order to understand and lead others, they must first understand and be able to lead themselves.
In the interests of keeping it real; I'm not afraid to say that I'm a learner and a work in progress. Just like the leaders I coach and the teachers I teach, everyday I roll my sleeves up and dive into the messiness of showing up as my best self.
I’ve learned a lot from working on my own challenges around setting boundaries, believing in myself, overcoming perfectionism and learning to like myself. Some of my greatest learning has come from clients: each person I work with shows me that we all have amazing potential within us – we just need some help to believe it and to let it shine.
