Kate Kilby

Are you a woman who has worked hard to get where you are, but are now questioning it all?

Do you find yourself going in circles between between 'what if...' and 'why bother'?

Are you feeling stuck, bored, or burned out in a job or life that no longer fits?

Are you longing for the space, clarity and control to choose differently?

I help driven women like you to get back in the driving seat of their lives and bridge the gap between what looks good on paper and actually feels good on the inside. I will support you to find clarity amid the overwhelm so you can finally figure out what really matters and what you want next, build confidence in yourself and your choices, and get back in control of consciously creating a fulfilling life that brings the purpose, balance, and peace of mind you've been craving.

You've likely found your way here because something isn't sitting right.

Perhaps you’re looking for a career change, but are stumped as to what to do about it.

Maybe work feels like a grind, and work/life ‘balance’ feels like a fantasy.

Maybe you're questioning if this is really "it."

Maybe you've built what looks like success on paper, but the happiness factor hasn’t followed through. 

Does this sound like you?

• You feel STUCK in limbo - frustrated with where you are in your career and personal development, but uncertain about change
• You DOUBT yourself – your confidence wavering as you second-guess how you feel (is it really that bad?...) and what you're capable of
• You're DISCONNECTED - going through motions, pushing on and pushing through in your work and relationships, because … what else? But missing a deeper sense of meaning or purpose
• You're EXHAUSTED – feeling the stress and barely keeping your head above water, let alone finding the motivation to change

I see you, because I've been there too. For 14 years, I built a successful career in media and advertising, but with each passing year, the pressure and dissatisfaction only grew. By the time I became a working mum in 2017, I was drowning and far from thriving. I spent years pushing through, white-knuckling it, hoping things would change. In the end, it took the collision of a burnout, a global pandemic, and grieving a deep personal loss to finally force me to stop and ask: What am I doing? And what do I really want instead?

Now I help women get clear on what they want BEFORE they hit breaking point.

Together, we'll:

• Get clear on what you actually want in your career and life (beyond the "shoulds" and expectations)
• Build the confidence to trust yourself, overcome procrastination, and take meaningful steps towards what you want
• Create the change you crave through empowerment coaching that feels manageable and right for YOU, at YOUR pace

My clients describe our work as "empowering," "transformative," and "insightful." They rediscover their creativity, confidence, and excitement about what's next and the motivation and energy to make it happen. 

If you're tired of feeling stuck and ready to explore the possibility there's happiness and a version of success out there that is better suited for you, I invite you to book a free 30-minute Clarity Call. No pressure, zero hard sell (ick!) - just an honest conversation about where you are, what you want and need, and to get a sense of whether I'm the right person to help.

TESTIMONIALS

Trudy:    “Coaching with Kate has been one of the best things I've done in a long time!  Each session I learned new things about myself, had insightful takeaways and was able to implement new ways to reframe situations immediately. Kate is both calm & warm which helped me to unearth layers of unhelpful thought patterns, all the while making me confident that the space I was in was safe & non-judgmental. I highly recommend Kate for coaching for anything and everything!  You will not regret it.”

Jenni:    “I started working with Kate in a very strange time of my life. In my mid 30's, I returned to my career after taking a year out for mental health reasons. I was unsure when I returned to my career if it was actually what I wanted anymore and needed to figure out if it was it or me! Kate has helped me remove the brain fog so I could move forward with my new ideas. For the first time in years I feel creative and inspired again! She has helped me to believe in my capabilities as a business owner and also helped me become more confident in my personal life. I couldn't recommend Kate highly enough. She's calm and pragmatic but isn't scared to ask the nitty gritty questions to get you thinking! Thank you Kate, here's to the future!”

Katie:    “Coaching with Kate was an incredibly insightful experience. I am getting ready to returning to work from my parental leave and have felt overwhelmed by decisions I thought I needed to make now. Though talking to Kate and having her reflect back my ramblings in a concise and considered manner has helped slow down my mind and take stock highlighting that decisions don't have to be made at such a break neck speed. Her approach is warm and encouraging with clear direction and insightful reflections. She is a fantastic coach and I would encourage everyone to work with her.”

Saskia: "Working with Kate was a real pleasure. She made me feel supported and heard. She provided insightful guidance and helped me make decisions with more confidence and clarity. Highly recommended!"

Jo:    “I wholeheartedly recommend coaching with Kate. She creates a brilliant, supportive space for discussion, effective self-reflection and clear next steps. She is generous with her time and expertise, and tailors the session to meet what you most need from coaching. Thank you, Kate!”

Lisa:    “It has been a privilege to work with Kate. Her ability to build a trusting, calm and safe space has allowed me to be vulnerable, to cry and to begin to rebuild. Kate has given me tangible solutions to overcome barriers and to be kind to myself as I evolve personally and professionally. If you do one thing today, sign up to work with Kate, she is phenomenal.”

Marietta:    “In one session with Kate it feels like a weight has been lifted. She helped me pinpoint patterns in my thoughts and behaviour that were affecting different areas of my life. By understanding why things have been difficult of late, she helped me realise my self-compassion needed a boost and that I can stop questioning everything I'm doing. Simply talking it through with Kate's guidance helped me drill down on my issue and I have some key take aways to help me. After the session I felt relieved and hopeful and those feelings are still with me. Thank you Kate!”

Kate:    “Kate created a kind and safe space for me to speak open-heartedly. She held a mirror up for me and gave me grace, and allowed me to stumble my way through the session until I was able to have conviction in my thoughts and answers. She pulled out something very special in me, and I was buzzing after the session!”

Hayley:    “I felt at ease with Kate quickly. She has a warm and attentive presence. She is a skilled coach asking good questions whilst allowing me the space to get to new understandings at my own pace. In one session talking to Kate helped me to reframe something that has been a big problem for me.”

Anne:    “The coaching session with Kate came at a time which worked extremely well for me. I have found myself at a bit of a crossroads with goal setting for 2023 and closing out 2022. I was able to use this coaching session to reflect, and Kate's coaching style meant that I felt supported, but also empowered, Kate comes across as warm and personal which meant I trusted her immediately and I was able to use her to provide a level of challenge and focus which I needed. Thank you Kate."

Sophie:    "I've never been 'coached' before...The session took me by surprise; Kate made it very comfortable for me very quickly to open up and we were able to cover a lot of ground in a short space of time. I finished the session feeling much better, and confident that there are tools to explore further to help cope with the challenges I have. Kate is kind, gentle, calm and methodical in her approach. Trust in the process - and in a coach who knows exactly what she's doing - and genuinely wants to help." 

Rosa: “If you recognise some challenges within you that you would like to explore, and would like to do so in a safe space with a coach that cares, work with Kate! it is powerful and will move you forward in more than one way!”
