Coaching with me is not about fixing yourself.

It’s about learning how to understand yourself more deeply, trust your own inner voice, and move through life with more clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom.

Is this you?

  • You’re capable and smart but something keeps getting in the way.
  • You’ve been trying to figure this out alone for too long.
  • You want clarity, not more advice from people who don’t really know you.
  • You’re ready to do something different – you just need the right support.

What coaching with me looks like

My role is not to tell you what to do but to help you hear yourself more clearly and create change from a place that feels grounded, honest, and sustainable.

Here’s what working together looks like:

  • 1:1 sessions (60 minutes) via Zoom, Google Meet, or in person.
  • Organised to suit your pace.
  • Personalised direction tools tailored to what you’re working through.
  • Priority scheduling – we lock in your sessions so they actually happen.
  • A free 30-minute intro call before we begin – no obligation.

When moving forward feels really hard, there’s usually one simple reason.

Why work with me?

My coaching is grounded in the work I’ve done through The Life Coach School – USA, where I trained in mindset coaching, emotional awareness, behavioural patterns and self-coaching tools. Alongside this, I hold a Diploma in Business Studies in Sport Management and Coaching from Massey University – NZ, as well as a Teaching Certification with the Royal Academy of Dance – UK.

Before becoming a coach, I spent 25 years working as a ballet teacher – an experience that deeply shaped the way I understand people, confidence, discipline, emotional pressure, and personal growth.

Your coaching FAQs answered

How do I know if coaching is right for me?

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for change but not sure where to start then coaching is for you. The free intro call is a no-pressure way to find out if we’re a good fit.

Not at all. Many clients come in saying “I just know something needs to change.” Finding clarity is often part of the work.

Most clients say that they feel clearer and more settled after just a few sessions. Deeper shifts can take a little longer.

Start with a single session. Try it once and see how it feels. There’s no pressure to do more.

What happens in the free call?

  • We’ll spend 30 minutes getting to know each other, normally on the phone.
  • You’ll tell me what you’re navigating – I’ll ask questions and really listen.
  • I’ll share how I work and what coaching with me looks like.
  • We’ll work out together if it’s the right fit – no pressure either way.

At a time when I was juggling marriage, parenting, career pressures, and the personal changes that come with midlife, Amanda helped me reconnect with myself again.

One of the biggest challenges I faced was making a significant career change later in life. Deep down, I truly did not believe I was good enough. Amanda helped me work through those fears in ways that genuinely changed my life.

Eventually, I landed what I can honestly call my dream job — and my career has completely flourished since. I truly believe Amanda played a major role in helping me get there, because she helped me see value and capability in myself long before I could fully see it on my own.

To this day, I still use the tools and perspectives she taught me. I cannot emphasise enough how much she helped me become a stronger, healthier, and far more confident version of myself.
