Lead your HR department with confidence and purpose - not exhaustion

As a senior HR professional, you're trusted, capable, the person people turn to when they need support.
You navigate politics, people, pressure and responsibility - calmly and professionally, day after day.
But behind closed doors, something doesn't quite feel right.
You feel exhausted in a way that rest doesn't fix.
Your confidence has eroded. You question your value and second-guess your decisions.
You give so much to others, yet rarely feel seen or supported yourself.
And you're wondering how you got here ... and what's next.
I get it. I've been there.
But, it doesn't have to be that way.

I've walked the path that so many of my clients are on - the path of overachievement, self-doubt and burnout.
I know what it's like to feel invisible in a senior role, to question your value, to crave more meaning.
I too believed that my worth was tied to performance and being the one who could handle it all.
I've lived the tension between being capable and being tired.
When I left my HR Director role I was burnt out. But I found a way to reconnect with who I am, reclaim my strengths and redefine what fulfilment was for me.
Now I support the humans behind businesses to thrive, so they can make the impact they want to make. Read more about my story here.
Move from uncertainty to a grounded, focused sense of direction in your career and life. Decisions feel clearer, priorities sharper, and the mental noise that comes from second-guessing begins to quieten, bringing a sense of calm and focus to your day.
Trust your strengths, your voice, and your ability to make decisions that honour who you are, not who you think you need to be. You speak up more easily, stop trying to prove yourself, and feel more confident in how you show up at work, making work feel less draining and more natural.
Restore your energy, boundaries, and sense of self, without stepping away from impact. You feel more resilient under pressure, recover more quickly when things don’t go to plan, and have the capacity to enjoy life beyond work, making success feel sustainable, not exhausting.
Here's how I'll guide you through my NooWay® framework, every step of the way

Reconnect
We slow things down and create space to reconnect with who you are beneath the role - your values, strengths and what truly matters to you now.
Rebuild
Using my NooWay® framework, we rebuild self-trust, confidence and clarity - uncovering patterns that keep you stuck and recognising the value you've been overlooking.
Realign
You move forward with purpose, making decisions that feel aligned - whether that's reshaping your role, setting new boundaries or stepping into something new.
These programmes are designed to help you reset, rebuild your confidence, and create lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

"Coaching gave me the space to pause, reflect, and really consider what I want from the next stage of my career and life.
The biggest shift has been in my confidence and self-belief - I’ve gone from questioning my worth to recognising the value I bring as a leader.”
"Niki has brought about a total 180 change in my mindset. She has enabled me to think more positively about people management and has given me the tools to manage conflict without drama or intervention.
Through her Coaching I have grown into a more confident leader, a more positive person and a more acceptant human being."
I contribute to podcasts, publications and events exploring burnout, misalignment and authentic leadership in HR, bringing a calm, experience-led perspective shaped by over 20 years in senior HR leadership.
Yes. Many people come to coaching feeling unclear or overwhelmed and that’s okay. Our first step will be creating space to explore what’s going on and what you truly want. You don’t need all the answers to begin.
I offer a free 30-minute Introductory Call so we can get to know each other, talk through your goals, and see if we’re a good fit.
Yes, I work with organisations on leadership development, team dynamics, and change management support. I also run tailored coaching programmes and group workshops using tools like Insights Discovery. Let’s chat about what your team needs.
Absolutely. Everything we discuss stays between us. I also follow the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Code of Ethics, which includes strict confidentiality standards.
Coaching programmes vary in price depending on duration and tools included. A typical coaching package with six 90 minute coaching sessions and support between sessions starts from £1,200. Bespoke programmes for organisations and senior teams are also available. I also offer payment plans to spread the cost monthly. Book a free call to discuss what’s right for you.
Coaching is a future-focused, thought-provoking partnership that helps you unlock your potential and create meaningful change. Unlike therapy, which often explores past experiences, coaching is forward-looking. Unlike mentoring, it’s not about giving advice, it's about helping you find your own answers with clarity and confidence.
If you're feeling stuck, unfulfilled, burnt out, or unsure about your next step but know you want things to change, coaching can help. It’s right for you if you're ready to explore deeply, take ownership, and create positive, lasting change in your life or career. If you’re curious, start with a free Introduction Call - there’s no pressure to commit.
The coaching process typically begins with an initial consultation where the coach and client discuss goals, expectations, and the coaching framework. This is followed by regular sessions where the coach uses various techniques to facilitate growth and development.
Coaching is a series of structured conversations where we focus on your goals, challenges, mindset, and opportunities. You set the agenda, and I guide the process with tools, reflections, and questions that unlock insight and momentum. Most clients work with me over several sessions to create lasting change.
Coaching offers numerous benefits, including enhanced self-awareness, improved performance, and greater clarity in decision-making. Clients often report increased confidence and motivation, which can lead to better outcomes in both personal and professional settings.
Each programme includes regular 1:1 coaching sessions (typically 60 to 90 minutes), support between sessions, and tailored resources. Some programmes also include psychometric tools like Insights Discovery or CMe Profiling to deepen self-awareness.
