Welcome

Welcome to Be By Your Side Coaching, and thank you for being here. Whether you’re just curious, looking for support, or already committed to growth, I’m so glad you’ve found your way to this space.

Starting this coaching practice was never just a business decision, it came from a deeper place. A place of wanting to be there for others the way I once needed someone to be there for me.

The Journey That Brought Me Here

Throughout my career, I’ve worn many hats: team leader, delivery manager, agile facilitator, and through it all, I’ve been the person quietly championing others. to help people grow, reflect, adapt, and rise has always been the part of the job that lit me up the most.

Over time, I realised that coaching wasn’t just something I enjoyed—it was something I was meant to do. So, I built Be By Your Side Coaching to bring that supportive, honest, action-focused energy to the people who need it most.

What “Be By Your Side” Really Means

The name says it all. I’m not here to stand in front of you telling you what to do. I’m not here to sit behind you pushing you forward. I’m here by your side, as a thought partner, a mirror, a cheerleader, and sometimes, a challenger.

My coaching is grounded in integrity, kindness, honesty, and a deep belief in your potential. Whether you’re navigating self-doubt, looking to take a leap in your career, or simply want to reconnect with what makes you feel alive, I’m here for that.

Who I Work With

I work with brilliant, capable people who’ve started to feel stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from their strengths. Many are women in business, professionals considering a career change, or entrepreneurs stepping into new roles and responsibilities.

What they have in common is a desire to grow, and the courage to ask for support.

What You Can Expect from This Blog

This blog will be an extension of my coaching practice: a place for real talk, reflection, and growth. I’ll be sharing thoughts on mindset, confidence, self-leadership, and practical ways to move forward when things feel tough.

You’ll also find tools and free resources, updates about coaching offers, and maybe the occasional pep talk too.
