When your people thrive, your business will too.
Let’s make that your reality.
When your people thrive,
your business will too.
My role is to help you make that your reality.
Most businesses know that talent is their greatest asset. But over 50% of women leave their full time roles within 5 years of having a baby. When mothers come back to work without the right support, they find it so hard to maintain both the career and raise a family they either leave or have to reduce their hours. Women can end up dropping out of careers they love, and organisations lose experience, diversity and expertise.Â
That doesn’t have to be your story.
I help women return to work with confidence, clarity and impact. And when mothers thrive personally and professionally, your retention, engagement and business performance all benefit. Â
This is particularly crucial in SMEs, where every person can make a big impact.
Ready to build a workplace where mothers can thrive at work and at home?

Working with lucy
Lucy has supported numerous clients all over the world in a variety of sectors ranging from technology, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, government, and financial services.
She works with women at different levels of seniority, supporting them as they return to work so they can feel confident in their role again, whilst adjusting to the changes that a new baby brings at home. This helps women to settle back into their roles more quickly, find their voice ‘at the table’ again, and take on new projects or look for promotion successfully.
As a Professional Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation she is a highly qualified and experienced coach and has been a working parent for most of her career.
Lucy can offer you a bespoke service as a small or medium company if you value the integral role of coaching in organisational and professional development, but don’t want the huge expense and hassle of large corporate coaching firms.
Usma Collins, Principal Researcher, Society
I decided coaching would be the best way to really grow in my role and support executive search fully and I was delighted to have the opportunity to be coached by Lucy!
The biggest breakthrough was recognising the skills, experience I bring to to my role and having the opportunity to reflect and articulate solutions in a confidential space was invaluable. I worked on tangible solutions and Lucy kindly shared links to complement some of the topics we discussed during coaching sessions and I now have access to key tips, approaches as well as focused strategic questions, which have all had a positive impact on my work and professional outlook!
I would highly recommend Lucy, as not only is she a great coach, her appreciation and support for B Corps is fantastic and was a real added advantage, as I work in a fab B Corp organisation.
Jennifer Stokes, Operational Finance Manager
I received coaching from Lucy through my place of work after returning from maternity leave. Juggling mum and work life is definitely a balancing act and I was really glad I had the sessions with Lucy to work through this. Through the sessions even the simplest idea was such a god send for me and made me realise what I needed to be able to achieve what I wanted!
The difference that my time with Lucy has made to my work and home life is immense, it’s give me the confidence and tools to tackle the biggest obstacles, those that felt far too overwhelming before meeting Lucy…
I can’t recommend Lucy enough and everyone would benefit from some coaching!
Alison Payne, People Director at COOK trading Ltd
Lucy brings such a wonderful mix of skills to her role as a coach and I can certainly vouch for her calm listening skills and natural energy and enthusiasm with people.
We have had remarkable feedback from people in our organisation who have been coached by Lucy, and are now thinking about things in a different way and setting themselves new challenges. I highly recommend Lucy.
