Kate Kilby - Transformational Life Coach

Hi, I’m Kate. I’m a Transformational Life Coach working with women who feel frazzled, frustrated and are in search of something more. I support them in finding the courage and clarity to recognise who they are, what they want and what they are capable of, and to build a life of balance, confidence and fulfilment.

How are you feeling right now?

Do you feel pulled in every direction, yet like you’re going nowhere?

Do you feel trapped on a metaphorical treadmill, constantly meeting (and exceeding) the needs and expectations of others yet rarely feeling like you’ve really achieved anything meaningful?

Do you have a nagging sense that there is a better way, that there’s something different out there for you, but you’re paralysed by indecision and a lack of clarity on what you truly want?

Are you putting up with the dissatisfaction day in, day out, for fear of the diving into unknown?

If any of this sounds familiar, then I hear you

I’ve been there, and I know how hard it can be to make a change when you’re so focussed on keeping all the plates spinning.

I spent over 13 years in the dynamic, demanding and fast-paced world of advertising and media agencies. Yet the more I climbed, the more I found myself increasingly dissatisfied with the career and industry I was in.

Once I became a working mum, the building pressure of juggling a busy, pressured job and family life was burning me out. I was constantly exhausted and anxious, and despite delivering in my job week after week I never felt like I was doing enough, or had achieved anything to be truly proud of. I was just surviving, not thriving.

Following a difficult year, and amidst the perfect storm of health issues, grief, and one global pandemic, I gathered the perspective and courage to leave behind the familiar and seek a lifestyle and career with more balance, meaning and fulfilment.

It can be so hard to put yourself first, but I know first-hand how powerful and effective it can be to pledge even just two hours a month to being coached. In dedicating this time, you’re not only giving yourself the permission to truly invest in yourself and your personal development, but also gaining a safe space for deep reflection, exploration and discovery.

How I can support you

I won’t be kicking your butt – I’m not that kind of coach. If you’re looking for tough love and prescriptive programmes to get you on track, then I’m not your gal.

What I will do is:

• create a space that feels open, honest and collaborative, where you will feel supported, safe and comfortable to bring your true self.
• listen deeply and with empathy – in fact you might feel a sense of relief just to be truly listened to in a way you don’t get in your day-to-day conversations.
• help you unpick and challenge any negative self-talk, limiting beliefs and old stories that aren’t serving you.
• help you gain new perspectives on situations, relationships & interactions that have been troubling you.
• help you unlock the answers you already have within you.

What you'll gain from the coaching

• A deeper self-awareness: understanding yourself and your inner world, what’s truly important to you, your strengths, repeating patterns, blocks and limitations getting in your way - making way for rewarding personal development
• Clarity, purpose and direction: untangling the overwhelm, then getting clear on what you want, where you’re headed and what needs to happen to get you there
• Future focussed action: turning your new insights into action, setting goals, identifying manageable tasks, and step by step forging a path towards a life that is more aligned to who you are and what you want
• A sense of empowerment: you’ll have more confidence in your abilities, in what’s possible and greater motivation to reach your goals.
• Feel calmer, grounded and reassured: improve your self-esteem as you start to understand your inner world more deeply, and make positive decisions and actions that start to align your life with this.

The women that work with me are often looking for help with:

• Career coaching - including clarity around career direction and career change, career fulfilment, improving work/life balance
• Procrastination
• Improving self-esteem and confidence
• Tackling self-doubt, Imposter Syndrome and negative self-talk
