I work with business owners, senior leaders, board members, individuals navigating transition, and coaches seeking supervision. What my clients share is a desire to pause, reflect, and grow - often at moments when the path ahead feels uncertain, or when they want to make more of their potential.
What We Might Explore
Through coaching, we might work on:
Navigating pivotal transitions - whether it’s stepping into senior roles, leaving corporate life, starting something new, adapting across cultures, preparing for retirement, or facing the personal changes that come with different stages of life.
Gaining clarity about who you are, what you want out of life, and the values that guide your choices.
Exploring your relationship with yourself and others, strengthening confidence, trust, and collaboration.
Recognising and shifting patterns that may hold you back, opening space for resilience, creativity, and growth.
Deepening your ability to respond to uncertainty and pressure while remaining grounded and effective.
Enhancing your leadership and influence - building presence, expanding your repertoire of styles, and fostering stronger relationships at work and beyond.
My approach
My coaching is holistic: we work with the whole person, not just the professional role. Real progress happens when we pay attention to both the external choices you face and the inner landscape that shapes how you show up, relate, and grow.
My clients often tell me that what helps most is the balance I bring between empathy and challenge. The combination of compassion and perceptiveness on the one hand, and persistence with inquiry and gentle challenge on the other, helps them feel safe in our conversations. From that sense of safety, they find the courage to experiment with new ways of leading and living — and often uncover fresh insights about themselves.
As one client put it: “Maria has a rare skill in helping people explore the unspoken doubts and challenges that most of us carry. Talking about what usually stays unsaid is often the first step to sustainable change.”
How We Work Together
We start with a free chemistry call to see whether we are the right fit for each other. Based on my experience, you’ll need to be willing to commit to a minimum of six coaching sessions in order to make real progress.
We can work face to face or virtually. I bring presence, experience, and the ability to both support and challenge you. You bring curiosity, motivation, and commitment. Together, our results will be amazing!
