Whether you’re facing unexpected shifts, choosing a new direction, or leading others through change—I'm here to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

I work with senior leaders, consultants, founders, changemakers who are navigating change.

We have many moments in our work life when we are navigating change. I work with you when you are leading change, when you want a career change, and when you are ready to start something new.

The 121 programme is designed to create space to think, provoke ideas and build confidence and clarity so that you make things happen. We all face times where something shifts whether by choice or by circumstance and it can feel exciting, overwhelming, or just plain confusing.

My coaching is here to support you through three key transitions.

Change Leaders

When you are leading change

You're in a leadership role, and you're responsible for driving change whether it's within your team, your organisation, or an entire business. You might be:

  • Leading a restructure, new strategy and direction, or cultural shift

  • Managing resistance, uncertainty, or conflicting priorities

  • Wanting to lead with clarity, confidence, and empathy

I help you navigate the challenges of leading others through change while staying grounded, purposeful, and true to your leadership style.

Starting with yourself and leading from the inside out to create transformational change.

Rethinkers

When you want to rethink work

You know something isn't working anymore. You feel stuck, unfulfilled, or restless but you're unsure what’s next. Whether you want to shift roles, start a business or redesign your whole working life, I help you:

  • Make sense of what's no longer serving you

  • Explore new career possibilities without fear or pressure

  • Build a clear, realistic plan to move towards a career that feels like a better fit

Together, we’ll move you from lost and stuck to clear and confident, ready to make your next move.

From no idea, to some ideas, to too many ideas to an idea and making it happen.

Creators

When you’re ready to start something new

Maybe you’re ready to create something of your own. Or you’ve been holding a dream of launching a project, business, consultancy, or creative idea, write a book, create a course, but you don’t know where to start. We work together to:

  • Turn your ideas into a practical, actionable plan

  • Tackle the doubts and fears that come with starting something new

  • Stay focused, motivated, and aligned to what matters most to you

This is about turning your "what if" into "I’m doing it."

Discover your Thing, develop your Thing, create your Thing!

New 121 coaching experience for 2025…

To run inline with the launch of the book, Another Door Opens, this 121 coaching experience uses the tried and tested 5 step programme.

→ The programme runs over 12 weeks.

→ The first session is a 60 minute 121 exploring your challenges, focuses and aims for the programme.

→ After that, it’s a thinking prompt and exercise (homework), then the next week we have a 60 minute 121 call to run through what came up from the exercise.

So, it’s 6 x 60 minute 121 coaching sessions.

And 6 x 60 minute pre-recorded exercises (homework).

If you are navigating change right now, as a leader, as a rethinker changing your work,as a creator wanting to put something new out into the World. This is for you.

In 12 weeks time you can be in a very different place.

You are feeling a bit stuck.

I work with you to create foundations, so that you can work through change with clarity, confidence and commitment.

Note: I only take on a limited number of clients a month. My clients get my full attention.

Why work with me?

I work with you to achieve your goals. I’m your listening partner, your sounding board and your cheerleader.

An accredited coach and mentor, I draw on research including positive psychology, neuroscience and transactional analysis to inform my work, as well as learned experience.

After over 20 years of corporate life, in senior roles for brands including Costa Coffee, RAC, Virgin Atlantic and Vodafone, I took redundancy as a moment to change things.

I started two businesses, founded Another Door, started a podcast, and an author at Penguin Random House, and Bonnier UK.

I have made all the mistakes! And I’ve had some brilliant breakthroughs.

I now love working with people when they are at the start of something new.

What people say…

"Working with Eleanor was a really positive game-changer for me. Eleanor provided some much-needed reassurance, clarity and direction at a crossroads moment in my career. Leaving a job and an industry where I had worked for many years to venture into something new was pretty challenging. It opened my eyes to the many possibilities out there - it certainly gave me a real confidence boost. I'd thoroughly recommend coaching with Eleanor - it could be one of the wisest moves you make."

- Gary Nicks, Head of News, MOD

“I found Eleanor to be an excellent coach. Working with Eleanor I moved on quickly and can honestly say she changed my life.

She really made me question what I wanted and what was important to me. I questioned everything and only applied for roles I was interested in and met my criteria. In the end I was juggling two job offers.

Eleanor always asked the key questions that made me really think and gave me the confidence to try something out of my comfort zone. The feedback I had at both interviews was amazing and that was because I was so clear about what was important to me in terms of people, culture and values. I will always be grateful to Eleanor. In just over 3.5 months I moved to a whole new place.”

- Carol Hughes, Head of Sales, Weleda
