Home About 1-to-1 Coaching For Organisations Contact

Stop circling, researching and advice-seeking. Start building towards a career and a life that fits you. Let's get you there.

 

1-to-1 coaching appreciates the full complexity of your work and life. Your path ahead will have ups and downs. That is to be expected, but the right coaching relationship and structure will support you through it. Regular coaching sessions enable you to stay focused on the most important project hanging over you, especially when things feel uncomfortable to sit with.

The SPARK Programme

 

A structured coaching approach to help you gain clarity, navigate your career and shape a more meaningful and energising next chapter. All while recognising the importance of your financial security and building on what you've already achieved. Broadly, we cover 5 areas:

 

S — Self-Identity

P — Possibilities

A — Aspirational Vision

R — Reality & Resources

K — Key Action Steps

1.

Self-Identity

Before you can redirect your ambition, you need to understand what drives you. We use your first couple of coaching sessions to refine a powerful articulation of your identity. Who you are at your core and what you uniquely bring to the table.
 

You will be guided through evidence-based exercises to uncover your unique combination of strengths and values. We start with strengths work because everything else becomes easier when you know what you're exceptional at and energised by.

Your identity is not your current title. Most people never articulate their values and strengths out loud to another person. This articulation is where you practice telling your story with more confidence and clarity begins to emerge. Understanding what drives you allows you to stop pushing harder and start working smarter.

2.

Possibilities

High achievers are often trapped by binary thinking: Stay or go? Succeed or fail? Right answer or wrong one?

Drawing on positive psychology, neuroscience and design thinking you'll explore multiple versions of your future with curiosity rather than pressure. The goal is to expand what feels possible rather than seek the perfect answer.

3. 

Aspirational Vision

Shape a long-term vision that genuinely excites you, one that spans work and life, not just your next job title. If everything went right, what could life look like in 5 years? What about in 10 years?

This isn't about finding the perfect path. It's about identifying the ingredients of a vision that energises and inspires you today, using it as a compass rather than a contract. This is where the right coaching helps you untangle the noise and distil it into what matters most to you.

4.

Reality & Resources

Meaningful change requires grappling with uncertainty and sitting with discomfort. But it does not require recklessness.

We map your current reality: Your finances, your family, your home, your non-negotiables.

Many high-achievers stay stuck because gaining clarity on their financial position is neither comfortable nor exciting. Getting a clearer picture of your personal financial freedom number, net worth and financial flows empowers you to make decisions.

We also dig deep into what can be adjusted, improved or reimagined near-term within your current role, using an evidence-based job-crafting framework.

5.

Key Action Steps

This is where insight becomes momentum.

In each session, you'll identify your next strategic experiment. A direct or indirect step designed to test your assumptions and build momentum toward a work and life vision that excites you. This isn't a scattergun approach. Every step is intentional, chosen to help you learn what you need to. Imagine knowing your next step forward, rather than circling through the same possibilities in your mind. Imagine building confidence by repeatedly showing up for the things that matter most to you.

Each experiment feeds back into your evolving self-identity and the SPARK cycle begins again, sharper each time.

Signature Strengths Intensive

Not sure where to start? Begin with your strengths.

A focused, standalone session to understand your unique skillset. What do you perform well? What energises you? What still drains you even though you've become great at it over time? What energising skills are you leaving on the table?

Understanding your strengths in depth, not just as a list but in terms of how they show up in your work, gives you a concrete foundation for every career decision that follows.

This session uses the Cappfinity Expert Strengths Profile Report, a research-backed assessment trusted by leading organisations globally, including Barclays, BBC, McKinsey, Microsoft, Morgan Stanley and PwC. Unlike personality tests, it measures both performance and energy, revealing not just what you're good at but what energises you. As a certified Strengths Profile Practitioner, I deliver the debrief and coaching session personally.

What's included

 
After completing an online survey in your own time, you'll receive your full Expert Strengths Profile Report: Up to 80 skills across five Skills Families (Being, Communicating, Motivating, Relating and Thinking) and a tailored Career Insights guide.
 
We then spend 90 minutes together on Zoom to:
  • Make sense of your results
  • Explore what they mean for your current role and career decisions
  • Identify your practical next steps

 "I would highly recommend Tanya as a coach. I was going through a period of career transition and Tanya helped me reflect on my values, strengths and personal mission. We did some useful futures visioning to explore where I wanted to be in five years and what it would take to get there (including writing a letter from the future!) As a result, I reconnected with my desire to do a PhD and am now enrolled in a part-time professional doctorate that I love. Life-changing! Tanya is friendly, flexible in her approach and tailors each session to what you need at that time. She even made time for an 'emergency' session when I needed one and always encourages me to update her on progress between sessions for accountability and positive reinforcement."

NINA — DOCTORAL RESEARCHER AND DIRECTOR

"I can honestly say that I found Tanya's coaching sessions life changing. She opened my mind to a world of possibilities that I hadn't allowed before. Before my coaching with Tanya, I thought my career in law was binary, but I have applied the tools she's given me and am in a much happier place and in a role I didn't think existed."
SUSIE — FINANCING FOR PRIVATE EQUITY AND FUNDS

 

"Tanya has a gift for breaking down a big life challenge into bite-sized pieces, and helping you navigate through the key considerations. She helped me assess options from a holistic perspective, considering not only the immediate benefits but also how they fit into my larger life goals and values. She encouraged me to explore my character strengths in a way I hadn't done before, helping me see my career options through a different lens, and to look at what I value and enjoy most about work, which ultimately led to a deeper understanding of myself and my aspirations. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tanya as a professional coach to anyone seeking to make meaningful and informed career decisions while staying true to their own values and aspirations."
BHAVNA — PARTNERSHIPS DIRECTORSUSIE — FINANCING FOR PRIVATE EQUITY AND FUNDS

 

"I had the privilege of working with Tanya and I can confidently say that the experience has been transformative. What stands out about Tanya is her unique approach to positive psychology. She doesn't just focus on short-term goals or practical solutions; instead, she truly invested in helping me build a resilient and positive mindset that drives long-term success. Through her guidance, I've been able to develop a deeper understanding of my strengths, manage stress more effectively, and create a healthier work-life balance. Tanya's coaching style is both empathetic and insightful, fostering an environment where I felt heard, supported, and challenged to reach new heights."
