Why people come to coaching
Fertility and reproductive health challenges can feel all‑consuming. They can dominate your thinking, drain your energy and leave you feeling as if you’ve lost control of your own life. Some weeks move fast; others are long periods of waiting. Both can be difficult in different ways, especially when the emotional load sits alongside work, relationships and everything else you’re trying to manage.
People come to me when they want steadier thinking, clearer focus and support with the emotional and practical realities of treatment and day‑to‑day symptoms. My coaching gives you rare space to slow down, step back from the noise and make sense of what’s happening — a steady place when life feels anything but steady.
You get a calm, grounded space to think and speak openly, without judgement or managing anyone else’s reactions. We work on what matters to you and what you need right now: deciding on treatment, managing appointments alongside work, choosing who to talk to, or dealing with the uncertainty that runs through all of it. My role is to help you think clearly, stay centred and move through this stage with more confidence and capacity.
Coaching helps you regain clarity, confidence and capacity. It supports you when the emotional load is heavy and helps you reconnect with a sense of control, so you can move forward with more confidence and calm.
What we might work on together
Living with fertility or reproductive health challenges can bring symptoms, shifting routines, decisions and emotion that can be a lot to carry on your own. Coaching gives you space to think clearly, understand what matters to you and make decisions at a pace that feels manageable. You set the priorities. My role is to give you a calm space to slow down, work things through and choose what feels right for you.

Beyond Coaching
I’m involved in wider work across fertility and reproductive health, using my HR experience and lived experience to help open up conversations, reduce stigma and support better understanding.
I serve on the IVFN advisory board, and I contribute to events, panels and podcasts that explore the real‑life impact of fertility and reproductive health challenges — including my appearance on Work It Like a Mum: Regaining Confidence: Getting Your Pink Back.
I also share insights through panel discussions and events.
My Story
My fertility journey began after an unexpected health diagnosis, which led to further investigations and the discovery that I had PCOS. We were advised to freeze embryos before I started treatment, and at the time I assumed we’d come back to those embryos and things would fall into place. It didn’t happen like that for us.
Over several years we moved through IUI, IVF, frozen embryo transfers and repeat testing, with cycles that didn’t take, embryos that weren’t viable and long stretches of waiting to see what might happen next. Midway through, results showed that there was also an issue on my husbands side too, adding another layer of complexity, pressure and decisions.
During all of this, I was working in senior HR roles. Most mornings started with scans or bloods, before heading into meetings where nobody knew what was going on behind the scenes. Hormone drugs, physical discomfort, disrupted sleep and a body that didn’t feel like mine ran alongside managing work, counting cycle days, planning around treatment windows and trying every possible approach -strict diets, supplements, acupuncture, Chinese herbs - anything that might help.
There were hopeful moments followed by sharp disappointments. One transfer worked. I saw a heartbeat at six weeks, but at ten weeks learned the pregnancy hadn't conintued. I miscarried at seven weeks.
We kept going. My next frozen embryo transfer worked and our son was born exactly one year to the day after the procedure for my miscarriage. Which still gives me goosebumps.
We tried IVF again for a second child but didn’t get viable embryos. Then, unexpectedly, I found out I was pregnant and we had our daughter.
Nearly four years of clinic waiting rooms, injecting hormones, early‑morning tests, juggling work, life seemly on pause, uncertainty, grief, hope, exhaustion and eventually joy, have shaped how I understand this experience.
I share this because these experiences influence how I coach. I understand:
-
the weight of making decisions when you’re depleted
-
how isolating it can be to hold all of this quietly, especially at work
-
the emotional whiplash of waiting, hoping, losing and starting again
-
how easily boundaries slip when you’re vulnerable
-
the strain it can put on relationships, identity and confidence
-
the need for a steady, private space where you can say the truth out loud, without judgement
My experience allows me to meet clients with clarity, calm and honesty. I understand the language of clinics, the practical logistics and the emotional realities of navigating this alongside a full work and home life. I coach with steady support, practical grounding and gentle, direct challenge — helping you think clearly, make decisions that feel right for you, and move through this process with more confidence.
