Career & Leadership Coaching - 1:1 Clients
For high-achievers ready for their next level
For high-achievers ready for their next level
You have done well. On paper, everything makes sense.
But something feels off.
Work that used to energise you now feels heavier than it should.
Decisions take longer. You second-guess yourself more.
You are carrying more than your role actually requires.
From the outside, it still looks like success.
From the inside, it feels misaligned.
The issue is not your capability.
Your leadership and your choices have not caught up with the person you have become.
This work tends to resonate when you recognise yourself in some of this:
Sometimes it is the role.
Sometimes it is the environment.
Sometimes it is you who has changed.
Often, it is a combination of all three.
And what worked before no longer fits.
You might be exploring what is next.
Or realising that the answer is not necessarily leaving, but changing how you operate within where you are.
There is often a moment where the question becomes:
What actually matters to me now and am I willing to act on it?
Because the real tension is not just progression.
It is the trade-offs.
The role that looks right on paper but does not fit your life.
The expectations that no longer match your values.
The pace or structure that is no longer sustainable.
This work is not just about clarity.
It is about how your work and your life start to feel.
Many people come in thinking something big needs to change.
A new role. A new company. A complete reset.
Sometimes that is the outcome.
Often, it is not.
We start by looking at what is already within your control.
The decisions you are making.
The responsibility you are holding.
The way you are showing up day to day.
Because small, precise shifts here change everything.
You start to notice:
Sometimes this leads to bigger moves.
Sometimes it transforms the experience of where you already are.
For example, one client turned down a role that looked like the “next step” on paper because it required being in the office five days a week and did not fit the life she actually wanted.
That decision came from clarity, not compromise.
Either way, the goal is the same:
To build a way of working and leading that feels clear, sustainable, and genuinely yours.
With Monika's support, I’ve developed a stronger sense of where I want to go in my career, how to position myself effectively, and how to approach opportunities with confidence and purpose.Kam Hodge, Head of Internal Communications
My work is a combination of deep coaching and direct, practical challenge.
We don't really stay at the surface.
We look at:
And then we translate that into real, practical shifts.
Not everything needs to change.
But the right things do.
I bring structure when needed, and I will challenge you when you are getting in your own way.
Not to push you harder, but to help you operate more clearly and intentionally.
Before coaching, I built my career in high-pressure environments, progressing to Chief of Staff, working with senior leaders across a 3,000-person region.
I am also a business owner and a parent.
I understand what it is to:
This is not theoretical.
I bring both perspective and precision.
The ability to step back and see clearly, and the ability to help you act on it.
If you want to understand the kind of shifts this work creates, you can read client feedback and experiences here:
Most clients choose to work together over a number of months to allow for real change and sustained progress.
A typical starting point is a 16-week engagement, with investment around £2,000.
Longer and shorter engagements are also possible, depending on what you need and what you are working through.
Payment can be spread in instalments if helpful.
We will shape this together during the discovery call.
If you are ready to stop operating in ways that no longer fit and start making decisions with clarity and confidence - let's connect on a discovery call.
