A Heart-Centred Leadership Coach. Facilitator + Culture Consultant.
Hey, I'm Caroylne
I run a People Development consultancy and work with a mix of start-ups, scale-ups, corporates, womxn leaders and entrepreneurs. As you can tell, I'm not a fan of putting myself in a box and like the freedom that comes with working with a variety of people.
At the heart of my work is the desire to create a more open, inclusive and compassionate world where people feel empowered to show up at their truest selves.
Prior to starting my business, I was an award-winning People Director and spent 17 years working in the Personal and Organisational Development space. I was known as the ‘go-to’ for building and scaling high-performing teams and cultures. I spent years leading transformational change programmes and developing authentic leaders. Human behaviour and potential have always been my jam.
I adopt a holistic approach to personal and professional development - think strategy meets spirituality meets science. My clients often refer to me as the ‘strategic hippie’. You can read my story here

My values
My strength lies in my ability to create a safe space for you to speak your truth and explore your goals.
I know what it feels like to be where you are. I’ve been there too. I spent over 10 years in leadership roles and on paper, I had it all. The title, the salary, the kudos, the ‘success’, yet something still didn’t feel right. I didn’t feel right.
I was a typical high-achiever and lived and breathed my work, until one day my body decided it was time for a change. I was experiencing adrenal fatigue and running on empty. I had spent 18 months ignoring the signs and pushing myself to the point of burnout. The worse thing? I knew better. I decided it was time to start listening to my own advice. I prioritised my wellbeing and re-designed my life.
Today, my vision is to enable womxn leaders and entrepreneurs to free themselves from self-imposed limitations so that they can fully step into their potential and give themselves permission to show up and create an impact in the world. I’m done with seeing smart, capable womxn conform, shrink and try to emulate the guys in the room. I’m done with seeing you try to be superwoman. The world needs more womxn leaders and I’m on a mission to help you get there, stay there and make an impact without losing yourself along the way.
We’ll work together to uncover your blind spots and the things that have been holding you back. I’ll help you build upon your strengths and inner resources so that you can reconnect with your power, grow your confidence and own your potential.
I believe that clarity + confidence + courage + connection = an unstoppable womxn who is grounded in her power and living and leading in alignment with her fullest potential.
