MY STORY
I am a coaching professional dedicated to helping individuals unlock their potential and thrive.
With over 25 years of experience across finance, education, and media, I support clients in overcoming challenges and achieving meaningful, lasting goals.
Having experienced how overwhelming life’s demands can become, I turned to coaching to find clarity and balance, changes that transformed my own path. I now help others create that same sense of direction and fulfilment.
I work with individuals seeking greater balance, clarity, and confidence, as well as those navigating career transitions, enhancing performance, or improving overall well-being.
My coaching style is practical and empowering. I help clients gain clarity, build confidence, sharpen focus, uncover their own solutions, develop sustainable strategies, and track progress, ultimately creating positive, lasting results in both life and work.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY
JOHN OFFORD
Working with Linda has been a really positive experience. Linda has a friendly, empathetic approach and creates a safe, non-judgmental space.
Linda listens actively, understands challenges, and knows how to challenge thinking in a supportive way.
The coaching process has helped me see things differently and gain perspective on the bigger picture. Linda encouraged me to think in new ways and reflect deeply, which has been really empowering. I would describe the coaching as thoughtful, insightful, and transformative.
Linda combines empathy with challenge, helping someone feel supported while also stretched to think differently.
A particularly impactful moment for me was when we explored my tendency to fixate on something-like thinking “I will get that job and there can be no other way.” Linda helped me understand this behaviour and consider alternative perspectives, which gave me much more clarity and flexibility in my thinking.
SHARON
I have no hesitation in recommending Linda, in fact, she was recommended to me – which is always a good sign.
Linda managed to balance a thorough assessment and reflection on a situation with tangible aims and goals, whether in behaviour or career progress.
I was looking for guidance i.e. Mel Robbins etc, YouTube and Manifesting practices, which were approaches Linda was familiar with and comfortable discussing. It really helped me with my own explorations into implementing coping strategies to help with daily pressures and at the same time motivate me to follow my goals.
It’s hard to pin-point one specific moment because there were many moments where Linda, both challenged me and encouraged me. The biggest impact was having regular sessions where I felt both accountable and consistent in the progress I was making. Pushing forward isn’t easy alone, especially when things seem to dry up or hit the doldrums. I felt that Linda also had a grasp of ‘the bigger picture’ and that it wasn’t all down to me and my actions.
Personally, for me Linda chimed with my more ‘spiritual/universal’ aspect of life as well as practical guidance. And I know that when we’ve met in person it’s been a wonderful experience! My journal is a testimony to that!
DAVID
Linda’s compassion, good humour and thoughtful reflections have helped shape a space where I feel totally comfortable opening up about all aspects of my career journey.
I didn’t realise how much coaching was focused on self-reflection. But for that very reason I think the impact it makes is more significant because it’s a journey guided by you and your own realisations, which means it sticks.
The space Linda creates has given me the opportunity to reflect on my own career journey. That reflection is so valuable in helping me consider some of the challenges I’ve had in my career and how important my values are in determining my leadership style going forward.
During one of our sessions I reflected on where I was on my coaching journey and the difference between where I began was night and day - I described myself now as being more agile and able to respond to knock backs quickly, likening my current situation to being on a surfboard. That imagery is something I hold close and often reflect on and it’s only been possible because of Linda's support.

FAQ's
How much does coaching cost?
Packages start from £30 for a single session, with discounts available for multi-session packages. Coaching is tailored to your needs and priced individually.
How does coaching work?
Coaching is a supportive, structured conversation that helps you explore challenges, clarify goals, and create practical strategies. I won’t tell you what to do, I’ll guide you to find the answers, tools, and confidence you need to move forward.
Is coaching confidential?
Yes. Everything we discuss is completely confidential, your data is not shared and all client information is treated confidentially inline with UK GDPR regulations. I comply with the EMCC code of ethics, providing a safe and non-judgemental space where you can be honest and open without fear.
What if I’ve never had coaching before?
You don’t need any prior experience. Coaching is for anyone who wants change, growth, or clarity. Our sessions are relaxed and tailored to you, no jargon, just honest conversations with practical outcomes.
How do I know if coaching is right for me?
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply want more from life or work, coaching can help. The best way to know is to try it, start with a free discovery call and see how it feels.
What makes human coaching different to AI coaching?
Human coaching is a meaningful relationship build on trust, rather than transactions. It involves the ability to read emotion, energy and nuance in real time. It includes thoughtful challenge, that stretches your thinking in a safe and supportive way. It also provides accountability that drives meaningful and sustained change.
What’s the time commitment?
Most clients meet with me every 2–3 weeks. Sessions last between 30 - 90 minutes, plus you’ll have tools and actions to work on between sessions. Lasting change takes commitment, but even a few sessions can create big shifts.
Do you offer online sessions?
Yes. I work with clients across the UK via Zoom, teams, face time, making it flexible and convenient to fit coaching into your life or work schedule.
What happens if I need to cancel a session?
Sessions can be rescheduled/cancelled up to 24 hours in advance, cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice, may not be refunded.
