About me

Hello, I’m Lou,
As a highly qualified wellness coach and business mentor with over 20 years of experience, I am equipped with the expertise to support professionals like yourself in thriving and flourishing. My approach to coaching is tailored to meet your specific needs, strengthen your self-assurance, and enable you to leverage your strengths in both your personal and professional life. Together, we can overcome obstacles and unlock your full potential to help you feel more fulfilled.

Why Coaching? 
Looking for a way to notice and reduce anxiety, become more present, and self-aware and boost your happiness? As a wellness coach and business mentor, I firmly believe that coaching can provide personal and professional support and motivation.With coaching, you'll become more optimistic and resilient, allowing you to bounce back from setbacks and trust your decisions. You'll gain the confidence to focus your energy on what's truly important to you and move forward with peace of mind. Let's get started on your journey to a happier and more fulfilling life!

I am a men's health champion and have recently completed my Master of Science Studies in Mindfulness. Through my research and coaching techniques, I focused on promoting mindfulness and self-compassion among men to help them reduce stress, improve confidence, and build psychological resources to overcome personal and professional challenges. The results of my research have shown that men who practice mindfulness have an improved awareness and a better understanding of how to make positive choices for their wellness and resilience, leading to less stress and greater well-being.

Wellness and Resilience Life Coaching sessions provide a clear and structured pathway to build knowledge and awareness about resilience and wellness. Designed for professionals, business owners, executives, and senior managers, coaching is personalised to your needs and may include managing personal life transitions, relationships, loss, self-esteem, family life, work-life balance, stress management, relaxation, mindfulness, and leadership. The result is a personalised toolkit that can be used for personal and professional growth.

Coaching and Mentoring for Business Owners and Entrepreneurs to find clarity and priorities, develop your ideas, create motivation and energy, find balance, and manage employee wellness. I can also support you in creating a positive, creative, and inspirational business culture.  Helping with presence, awareness and communication. With my support, you can achieve your intentions and flourish. With many years working within businesses and with businesses,  I appreciate the complexities of running a business as well as maintaining a balanced personal life with friends and family. 

In a safe, confidential space let’s connect to explore your unique journey. If you feel my approach resonates, please WhatsApp or email me to book your free  ½ hour consultation call by phone, WhatsApp or FaceTime.

What Clients Say

Life-Coaching

Thank you so much for creating space and time for me and investing yourself in my development. I really appreciate it. I’ve had some sparks of inspiration about the future and have been grateful for my minds creativity.

What you do to hold the space for me is magical, thoughtful and authentic. I also recognise I am a challenge to be had! Take time to recognise the difference you make, it’s an absolute gift" Gina

“Lou has worked with me, to help me on a journey to rediscover myself after number of issues at work completely knocked my confidence, question who I was and what I was doing with my life. She is non-judgmental and really got to know me as an individual and never passed judgement. She has a vast wealth of experience and knowledge of life to relate to and she has some great tools/aids at her finger tips to help inspire you instantly. She exudes so much positivity and encourages that from others. Lou is such a genuine person who want to help others to get the best out of themselves. She is a very inspirational lady; a great personal coach that has help me beyond my expectations and I am now discovering a whole new me…..that I really like! Thank you just doesn’t seem enough ” Alison

Business Wellness Coaching

My “lightbulb moment” moment may be a realisation…. that actually the way forward has a blockage that needs tackling….before I can move forward. In talking through the issues it enables me to find a way of dealing with it, having difficult conversations ultimately improve my outlook and mental health.” Sue Senior Growth Advisor

I wanted to find my self-limiting beliefs, in our sessions I get to see, to start to see the things that are tripping me up. “ Finance Director

Executive Transition Coaching

“Career change - but not through choice. “Having worked for a company I absolutely loved with a team of people I had grown and developed it came as a complete shock to be notified of a re structure and it was pretty clear that my role was to go and whilst other opportunities existed, whether it was hurt or middle aged stubbornness, that I opted for voluntary redundancy. Clearly, I was angry, upset and confused, and it was pretty clear to me that I needed a sounding board. Lou was inspirational and provided me with the environment to safely vent, which I needed to. It was only then was I able to re focus, yes, I was challenged, it was at times uncomfortable, I didn't know how to respond sometimes, but Lou persisted and it worked. Very quickly after only two sessions do I now have clarity, my confidence and self esteem is not just back, but far better, I have a new job already and excited. Thanks Lou " Stuart  

“If you would have asked me 12 months ago to seek help from somebody in Lou’s profession I might well have responded in the typical blokey way….I don’t need help, I’ll sort it myself! Since being put in touch with Lou I have been so pleased with the results from our meetings. I find that using Lou as a bit of a sounding board and being open to her suggestions has really put the concerns I had about my work into perspective. There is no doubt that my relationship with Lou has had a positive impact on not only my work but my family life as well” Wealth Manager – April 2018

“Lou is a sensation. If your mind is open to success then Lou is your lady. Different than your regular life or business coach, Lou will work with you on your goals on your terms so that you develop the answers and confirm these with yourself. Whether it is organisation, productivity or mindset. She will help you breakaway from regular norms or self-limiting thoughts to enhance the way you work and to live your life you want to live. She is tender, passionate, respectful and just a very very lovely person.”Michael Wilson, Entrepreneur and Consultant (Aviation and Nautical Sectors) –

“Nice manner, you listen well. Feel relaxed in your presence. Your approach is different. You have a different way of thinking, a non-traditional approach. You have pointed me to think differently and as a result, I have changed. “Dave Murray Vice President, GCP Technologies American Express 2017
