My signature Life Coaching for Women programme runs for 12 weeks, usually delivered weekly. We create the programme together. It’s a blend of coaching and mentoring, so you not only experience great coaching, but I also share with you some great tools and actions to help you achieve your coaching goals. Those are always led by you and your needs and wishes. Some people like to do this programme fortnightly. You get to choose. It’s your programme.
My group coaching programmes bring together a small group of women, no more than 8, for mentoring and learning. The shared aspect of the programme means that you belong to a small community of women who support each other fully. I introduce each session with learning and the fun begins as we share our experiences and learn from each other.
This is a one-off session. 1 hour to dig deep into one of the following:
Escaping the pressure machine - Overwhelm
Saying Goodbye to Superwoman - Just what it says!
Putting my own oxygen mask on first - Needs
Identifying what’s important to me - Values
Drawing my red lines - Boundaries
I don’t tell you how to make change. I gently coach you so that you find your own answers. My life coaching for women's programmes are gentle, but they can also be challenging, as you look at your life, where you are and where you want to be.
Our life coaching sessions are co-created. We create them together.
In addition to “traditional coaching”, I have a number of tools in my toolkit, allowing me to bring suggestions to our coaching sessions. Those are always led by you and your needs and wishes. If we identify that you would like some help with self care, I’ll work with you through how to identify your needs and ensure they are met. If you have trouble setting boundaries, I’ll work through some great boundary setting exercises with you. And there are many more tools, for dealing with overwhelm, indecision, asking for what you need, building a support network, batching tasks to match your energy. I could go on. There’s lots in the toolkit to supplement the “pure” coaching.
Soft Power is a unique aspect of my coaching programmes. That is leaning in to PowerTypes that are natural to us as women, rather than the testosterone-fuelled Superwoman type, who is based in masculine energy and can lead to burnout and illness. There are 5 Soft Power types, based on Jungian archetypes. They are Mother, Warrioress, Queen, Lover and Sorceress. Understanding these helps us find our power as women.
"I began the Life Coaching for Women programme with Geraldine as I was stressed, overwhelmed and burnt out. She was relaxed and easy to talk to and coached me using the One of Many Programme which we tailored together.
Geraldine guided me to reflect on the causes of my burnout and helped me to realise that I could take back control.
She has given me the tools to approach life in a new way with confidence. After 12 weeks with Geraldine my life is back on track and I feel excited about the future. I can highly recommend Geraldine as a coach, her sessions have had a hugely positive impact on my life."

"Having now completed my 12-week Life Coaching for Women programme with Geraldine and after some reflection I can say, with some assurance, that I have benefitted from the experience. I was able to learn a lot about myself through the journey and am now able to identify certain aspects of myself to call on in situations at work or in my personal life. I enjoyed the openness of the sessions and that they were client led.
Overall, I think the process would benefit so many female leaders in the community, even if it is just as a time to set aside to focus on yourself. Geraldine was a great listener and my, sometimes, outrageous statements were met with good humour when needed, but always with honesty focusing back on me."
"I really enjoyed having Geraldine as a coach. She has a warm, empathetic manner and was very easy to talk to. I found that I was able to raise quite sensitive issues with her and I made good progress with the issues that concerned me. I would definitely recommend her as a coach."
