About me
Welcome, and thank you for checking out my page.
In life’s journey, we often find ourselves at many different crossroads— wanting promotion, wanting a new start, perhaps faced with redundancy, contemplating the next chapter post-divorce, or stepping into the unpredictability of early retirement. It's in these moments that our confidence might waver, obscuring the path that lies ahead.
You are not alone.
I've navigated these very crossroads, discovering not a path back to who I was, but a path forward to who I am destined to be. Imagine embarking on a journey not to reclaim your old self but to discover an even more remarkable version of you.
How can authentic confidence transform your life?
Together, we'll dive deep into your current perspectives, challenging and expanding the beliefs that may be confining your potential. It's about unlocking the life you envision and forging the path to reach it.
What if self-awareness was the key you've been searching for?
Within us all, lies an untapped reserve of strength, a wealth of gifts yet to be discovered. Our coaching partnership will focus on nurturing your self-confidence, guiding you towards a profound connection with your true strengths.
Imagine: The transformative power of having a coach in your corner...
With a rich tapestry of experiences—spanning from entrepreneurial ventures to guiding leaders—I bring not just qualifications, but a journey walked, lessons learned, and a deep understanding of life’s ebb and flow.
Our collaboration begins with a conversation...
Our initial chat sets the stage, allowing me to craft a tailored approach based on your personal and professional landscape. This is about more than surface-level change; it's a deep dive into the essence of what you need, illuminating paths forward that resonate with your core.
What to expect
Expect a partnership grounded in empathy, accountability, and transformative insights.
Our collaboration is a journey toward heightened self-awareness and unwavering confidence, redefining your mindset and unlocking potential that propels you forward.
The choices you'll explore are infinite...
From navigating career decisions to fostering healthier relationships and embracing self-care, the strides our clients make continually inspire. Every message that begins with "Hey, guess what..." is a testament to the boundless possibilities that lie ahead.
How it works
After an initial chat, if you've decided to work with me, I will send you a questionnaire to get a sense of where you are in your personal and professional life. I will read your responses with interest and tell you what I see in a non-judgemental way - both in what you've said and what you haven't said.
Coaching goes deep. I don't do generic coaching that only scratches the surface of who you are - I'm for people who want to change things and make actionable decisions that feel good! Our only agenda is your plan.
What decisions do people take? All kinds! From the apparent business and work-related ones to far more personal ones around relationships and self-care. I'm continually in awe of what people achieve, and nothing beats the buzz of a WhatsApp that starts with "Hey, Kaidi, guess what!!...."
Who am I to help you?
I am Caroline Bowen, known as Kaidi a Certified Professional Coach with a background as a Bank Manager and Team Leader. I am super passionate about helping clients navigate change in their lives, business and work.
I use the power of life coaching, NLP and Playing Big Tools to help you create an inspired life of motivation, confidence and energy.

You may be reading this without ever having experienced coaching. So what can you expect?
The hardest part of the change is integrating your insights into your everyday life and holding yourself accountable. You may have read personal development books by the dozen. Even looking at this directory is a big step towards the change you want, and you should be celebrating choosing to work on yourself. After all, we only get one life.
The BIG question is, "Are you READY for the next step?" & "Am I the right coach for you?" - Let's chat to find out - book a chat

Client Reviews
"Kaidi’s style of coaching is very much person focussed, responding to where you are and what you need at a given time. She can be practical and focussed, offering advice and tips on anything from CVs to website design. But she is also insightful, encouraging more personal reflection, which touches on more significant questions of what you value, where you want to be, and what is stopping you from achieving this goal. Above all Kaidi is there for you.- Offering you the chance to think as creatively as you can with the belief that anything is possible if you let yourself embrace it and work towards it." Niamh
"I had career coaching with Kaidi and found it gave me an entirely new direction, Kaidi was supportive as I was made redundant, helping me to regain my equilibrium after the initial shock, then enlighten me on the job market in Cornwall and lots of practice interviews and job search help. I would highly recommend her coaching support." Matthew
"Kaidi is a brilliant coach. I always feel so peaceful after our sessions. She helped me to identify my biggest fears and overcome them. She helps me to connect with myself on a deep level. I feel secure and supported by her. Wish I have known her earlier!" Daiva
"I cannot recommend this woman more, I signed up for Executive coaching and achieved promotion not once but twice working with Kaidi." Nick
