After 20 years in education, as a Teacher, an English Lead, a Deputy Head and a Head Teacher, I decided in October 2021 that it was time to begin a new chapter in my life. Teaching is one of the most demanding and challenging professions out there! Having taught 100’s of children, each from countries across the world - I can definitely say that no two days were ever the same! However, teaching is in bones - and always will be! So I decided that I wanted to do something to help teachers, who like me on so many occasions, felt overwhelmed, stressed and close to burn-out by the daily demands of the profession. I realised that a turning point for me in gaining control, empowerment, work life balance and self- belief was when I started to research the power of coaching, both within the school setting and on a personal level. Having worked with several amazing Education and Lifestyle Coaches in London, I decided to train to become an accredited Mindset Coach. So here’s what I do now - I help women teachers who are overwhelmed and stressed by the demands of the profession to gain confidence, empowerment and self-belief in their ability to unlock their true potential I’ve never been afraid of taking a risk, but giving up the security of my job as a headteacher was a massive risk!!!
