Hi, I'm Adele -I'm here for the brave creative professionals and leaders, ready to do the work to transform their careers and business.
After two decades working in, on and with creative organisations and people, I turned my attention towards the thing that makes them want to work.
Taking an action-taking, BS-free approach, my coaching program helps creative people, teams and businesses understand their unique value to achieve their goals and find a fulfilling, purposeful work life.
With my guidance and support, I can help you achieve your goals. Grow your business, motivate your team, create a healthy company culture, get promoted, become a leader, or redefine the one you are — anything’s possible.
I’ll arm you and your team with the practical tools, guidance and support needed to build a career and workplace that’s as united and energetic, as it is successful.
Let's make it work - for you, for your team, for everyone.
About me
A coach, entrepreneur, educator and speaker powered by strong coffee and good times.
Unsurprisingly, I hate writing about myself, which is why I’ve spent the better part of my career turning my attention to other people.
After settling for one too many uninspiring (read: traditional) jobs, I ventured into the creative realm. Here, I grew businesses into the millions and teams into thousands. I was a recruiter, sales consultant, business development manager, mad-hatter and extremely fulfilled.
But then came burnout, a knock of confidence and a serious butt-kicking. I felt like I was running on a hamster wheel, letting work and life pass me by. If you’re nodding along to these words by now, then you know: I GET IT.
Unfortunately, there is no magical antidote to curb this feeling but there is a path forward and while that might look different to each of us, there is a way forward.
After some serious inner work, I realised I didn’t need to stop or control the wheel, I needed to get off it altogether. With perspective came meaningful action — a shift happened, I saw my confidence and self-perception improve, and then, my work, like you wouldn’t believe.
Now I’m helping other people and businesses do the same, by identifying their potential and harnessing their unique skills to create a life that brings them joy, pride and purpose.
“Here’s something I know for sure: feel confident in yourself, your team, and your business, and the results will follow.”
Get more than average banter from your job.
Whether you’re a freelancer with a new business, a manager in a large agency, or an outsider trying to crack into a creative field, my programs equip you with the tools and insight to achieve, lead and evolve your career.
If you're a creative professional or leader, coaching can help you to:
- Identify what you want and what you have to offer to achieve your goals, create new opportunities and elevate your career.
- Attract who and what you want by developing an authentic, personal brand through mindful reflection and understanding.
- Connect and motivate those around you.
- Identify your unique leadership style and build your confidence.
- Understand, motivate and empower your team to be their best — for themselves and the business.
- Achieve balance between work and life, without compromising one for the other.
- Foster a healthy workplace culture that supports every team member.
If you’re a creative business or organisation, coaching can help you to:
- Recruit, retain and grow your team and business.
- Create measurable, impactful change within and outside your business.
- Attract new clients and boost your profits.
- Develop a blueprint business plan aligned to your goals and values.
Regardless if you’re starting out or settled in, I’ll work with you to identify, plan and act on every idea, ambition and target you’re looking towards ‘til you get there.
Wanna work together? Here’s how.
My approach to coaching
Perspective
I’m here to be your sounding board, put things in perspective and break patterns and habits that aren’t serving you. With experience starting and growing aligned businesses, I’ll help you build momentum and take action to step away from the 9-5 and make your dream career a reality.
Curiosity
I’ll lead you in a journey of self-discovery to uncover your passions and strengths. We go deep, to figure out what you love doing and connect the dots between your experience and your goals. You’ll tap into potential beyond your wildest dreams and start seeing possibilities for a different kind of career future.
Support
I want you to feel confident, competent and excited about the future as you pursue your passion and get ready to make your mark on the world. It’s time to do more of what you love - including that lunchtime yoga class. All the way, I’m here supporting you on your journey - as your #1 cheerleader.
Challenge
Society has conditioned us to do things a certain way which, let’s face it, doesn’t always lead to fulfilment. What really lights me up is helping you think big, to carve out a deeply meaningful future. I’ll equip you with a plan of action, the steps and resources you need to get there.
I live and breathe my values
Growth
I believe in being courageous, finding your purpose and taking action. It’s time to break away from conditioning and society’s expectations to explore new possibilities.
Connection
I connect dots, connect ideas, connect people and help you connect with your true self and desires.
Authenticity
I’ve never tried to fit in and I don’t make false promises. I mean it when I say you’ll get a down-to-earth, real, honest, no BS experience when you work with me.
Freedom
I’m an adventure-seeker who craves independence and flexibility. I want you to feel the freedom to be yourself, too. Let’s rebel against society’s expectations and chase challenge together.
Happiness
I believe you should live the life you truly desire. This means choosing conscious living, with balance, and good mental and physical health as you expand your potential in work and life.
