My Story

Hi, I’m Ciara and I help people navigate work with more confidence and clarity. Whether it is through 121 Coaching, team coaching, or corporate workshops, my aim is to empower you to move forward with your career. I firmly believe that it is possible to flourish at work and I want to help you to do that. 

My clients are mid to senior-level professionals who are feeling stuck at work and want to take a step back to reevaluate their careers and think ‘what next?’. Perhaps imposter syndrome is stopping you move forward, you are transitioning to a leadership role or you are suffering from burnout. Whatever is stopping you from enjoying your job, I am here to help you uncover your strengths to take control again

For two whole decades I was rooted in global top-tier companies full of ambitious, smart people who were burnout, lacked confidence, or were unhappy at work.

I was also one of these people, I was working at Google and on paper, I had it all; a great job, excellent benefits, and performing well. However on the inside, I was crumbling; only sleeping for a few hours each night, stomach issues, low confidence, and anxiety. After leaving my job due to burnout and anxiety I was inspired to study coaching psychology and positive psychology so I could understand the science behind what makes us happy and fulfilled. Armed with this knowledge, and my personal experience I set up my business to help others in similar circumstances. 

Now, my work-life revolves around helping others understand their values, strengths, and purpose to help them thrive in their career. I am happiest when delivering workshops, researching the latest science regards work, or in coaching sessions with my clients. 

I do have another important job as a mother to the wildlings (my two wonderful daughters). I love walking in nature with family and friends, gardening (although my favorite plants are those that thrive on neglect!) and meeting with wonderful groups of friends. I am a lifelong learner and always have some sort of course on the side. You know the way other people hide their shopping habits from their partners, I have to hide that I’ve just signed up for yet another course.

If any of this resonates with you and you would like to work together, then, please arrange a free call below. My clients come from all sectors including health, finance, the public sector, and tech. I would love to have a chat to see if I am the right fit for you, or your company.
