Take control of your career with the help of an expert
Work with me to explore work-related opportunities and challenges, unearth powerful insights, and define practical next steps. I recognise that building a great relationship with you is key, and you can expect a warm, positive, supportive experience. Our sessions will be fully confidential and, for your peace of mind, backed up by a contract. We'll check-in regularly to ensure you're getting value from our time together. ✳️ My qualifications: I have a Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching from Henley Business School. The certification is triple accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), Association for Coaching (AC) and the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC). ✳️ My career background: I have 25+ years working as a tech/business transformation and innovation consultant, across a very broad range of industries and FTSE 100 companies. Key to my success has been my ability to work well with others, be empathetic to their needs and motivations, and model a positive mindset that helps everyone bring their best self to the proceedings. There are few scenarios that I haven't come across, which sets me in good stead when it comes to quickly understanding your situation and being able to support you. ✳️ Other qualifications: I hold an MBA (Technology Management specialism), BA (Hons) in Psychology and Management Studies, Post-graduate diploma in Marketing (CIM), Foundation Certificate in Environmental Management (AIEMA), and various project and programme management qualifications. ✳️ Bonus: I am a hyper-curious lover of learning, meaning my career experience and qualifications are really just the tips of the hump-backed iceberg when it comes to the value I can bring to the coaching relationship. My areas of interest include practical philosophy, systems thinking, performance and mindset, entrepreneurship, technology, and health and well-being. ✳️ How it works: we'll start with a FREE introduction and chemistry call. We'll talk about the opportunities and challenges in your working life, explore how coaching could help, and you'll get a feel for what it would be like to work with me. As a follow-on, I'll pull together a package of coaching sessions based on your needs. We'll meet at a frequency that works for you. We'll use Zoom (or similar), or can meet in person if you're London-based.
I love the feeling that I’ve tangibly helped someone. And I feel privileged to have the opportunity to do so.
My original thinking was: “I have a lot of experience and knowledge that would be useful to people. Much of it doesn’t currently have an outlet, via consulting work. This will be a great way for me to pay it forward.” 🙌🏾
But as I built my coaching skills and experience, I came to realise that there is so much more to coaching. Yes, I can (and do) share my experience and knowledge, gained over several decades as an independent business consultant. But the art – and the real value to you as a client – comes from my ability to create a supportive space and act as a catalyst for your own ability to change - the ability that lies dormant within you.
I aim to provide a warm, friendly, supportive space for you to explore your opportunities and challenges, unearth powerful insights, and define practical next steps. I recognise that a great coach/client relationship is key. Our sessions will be fully confidential and, for your peace of mind, backed up by a contract. We'll check in regularly to ensure you're getting value from our time together.
But hold on - perhaps you're still not sure why you should get a coach? We're all faced with challenges and opportunities in our working lives. Those things that keep you awake at night. The factors that you know are holding you back. Or that golden opportunity you'd love to grasp...but you're not quite sure how to get started. Working with a good coach will help you:
✴️ Find the time to give these challenges and opportunities the attention they need. It's a bit like having a personal trainer - you commit, you do the work, you put into action, you repeat.
✴️ Get support with thinking through topics. Who is your sounding board with whom you can work through these topics? It's not easy to do this kind of deep thinking — and tap into the insights that come from it — on your own.
✴️ Think differently about your situation. Your coach will help you identify the limiting beliefs that are holding you back, and shine a light on the levers for change that are within your reach, yet are currently hidden to you.
✴️ Make stuff happen. Your coach will agree a clear, realistic goal for each of your sessions together. That in turn will support your definition — and ownership — of practical next steps for you to put into play. The result: real change.

✅ Having a vital conversation with a partner about career path and shared earning responsibilities
✅ Uncovering limiting beliefs in relation to applying for a new role within the client's current organisation, then recognising some fantastic strengths vis à vis other candidates
✅ Defining a roadmap for introducing AI into the business
✅ Successfully implementing transformative time management practices
✅ Identifying new revenue streams, ensuring alignment with the organisation's mission and purpose

Dominique is ‘Amazing’ I am so grateful I was able to contact her via Bark. I booked for individual, at home ’IT Support’ and was not disappointed. (New Laptop and where do I start?) Dominique has a great wealth of expertise to share and has instilled confidence in me after just one session. Indeed, I have re-booked her already. Dominique contacted me via Bark, she said she could help and left it up to me (Not Pushy). On the day Dominique arrived in good time and I found her extremely personable and very easy to connect with. I am very much looking forward to my next session.

Lindsay is an empathetic and intuitive coach. She was great at pushing me to cut through to what really matters when I couldn’t see the wood for the trees. She encouraged me to think differently, silence my inner critic and consider “what if?”. Her follow-up is also great; she makes you accountable with gentle prodding, so you don’t lose focus. And she also has great supporting resources. Thank-you Lindsay, I enjoyed our sessions very much and found them hugely useful!

Thank you for your support over the last 6 months. It’s been a turbulent time and you’ve been there with a kind ear, practical suggestions and a positive mindset for me to lean on and learn from. Thank you for all the suggestions on how I can take the steps I need to take, in order to get where I want to be. It’s in progress, and I’m quietly excited about the future. Thank you and hopefully our paths will cross again in the future. I’d recommend you as a mentor without hesitation.
