Licensed Firework coaches

I love working with people who want to do more purpose-based, meaningful work in the world, who don't want to simply clock in and out of a job for the rest of their careers, and who know they are capable of extraordinary things - if only they could figure out what that is! I also help working parents achieve a more balanced approach in integrating their work with family life.

I have worked with a variety of professionals at all levels in their organizations and with varied goals related to career and purpose, work-life balance, and leadership.  Prior to becoming a coach, I led a remote and global team of Learning Consultants in Financial Services technology.  I excelled at building relationships within my organization, motivating and inspiring my team and colleagues, and articulating and achieving desired changes in culture and collaboration.

I encourage my clients to discover more about who they are being, in addition to what they are doing, in their lives as they explore a new career direction. I believe in the innate capacity of people to find solutions to their most important challenges and to stretch themselves to achieve incredible things, when given the right environment to explore possibilities. I support people to feel braver, more confident, and more conscious and aware about the choices they make in pursuit of their career goals. I also place a high priority on having fun in the process!

Some comments my clients have made about working with me:

"Meg is easy to talk to, compassionate and supportive yet probing and challenging when needed."

"I am so grateful to have found such a perceptive, committed, kind and thoughtful coach to guide me in this time of change."

I am available to coach individuals looking to clarify the next step in their professional or personal path. I specialise in
- Cultural issues -- expats, multiculturals, international careers
- Healthy living -- well-being, issues of balance and stress

My mission is to empower people to live fulfilling lives. My coaching style is empathic and curious, dynamic and respectful. My signature strength is the breadth and depth of my listening. I bring this to the table so that, together, we can create personalized solutions that put you on the right track towards achieving your goals.

People have said the following about me:

"Sonia is an extraordinary human being. Better than anyone I know, she picks up what is hidden. Truly using herself as an instrument, she has the ability to combine her observations with a strong foundation in psychology and coaching. She asks the hard questions, at the right time, never afraid to take you on a journey. I value her opinion, her insights, and moreover, her approach to change."

"Sonia has helped us greatly when our team needed the perspective from an outside person to help us go through a transition phase. Sonia is extremely personable. Her observations and advices were right on target."

"Not only is Sonia a very bright and nice person, she also brings to her coaching and consulting practice the courage it takes to sit down and to listen... and the courage to stand up and speak."

I work equally in French and in English.

I'm an executive coach, specialized in Career change, development and change management at work and stress management.

I believe in people's potential. My coaching style is focused on strengths' development. In the process I facilitate the elimination of clients' limitations, so that they can achieve their goals. My style is sensitive, sensible and goal orientated.

My coaching specialisms are:-

• Career transitions
• Planning and preparing for expatriate secondments and repatriation
• Career-life interactions

I offer a space within which you are able to share, explore and develop action plans for the career opportunities or challenges that you face, based on a trusted and confidential relationship. I have personally experienced the highs and lows of the career cycle across professional and financial services organisations, the impact it can have on other domains of life and the importance of maintaining perspective and well-being. The decisions will always be yours to make; my role is to ask the right questions to help make your decisions as informed as possible.

Coaching specialism: individuals experiencing career transition, or who want to do more of what they love, particularly after career break. 

Coaching style: I am a warm, attentive and intuitive coach, focused on the individual as a whole. I experienced my own career transition since having my daughter four years ago (from Corporate HR to freelance coaching and facilitation) I am energised by helping others to capitalise on the opportunity a career break can give for reigniting passions and discovering new ones! 

I work with individuals searching for greater meaning in their work. Those thinking about a slight shift or a complete change in their career. I focus on helping people understand their values, find a goal and coach them to get there.

My background is in the not for profit sector. That’s why I work passionately with people dedicated to something that really matters. Of course, what makes work meaningful is as individual as every client. It could be charity, IT, retail, big business, or a thousand other things. I thrive on helping people figure out what matters them, no matter the sector or the role.

I specialise in helping:
• Men and women in their mid 20s to mid 50s assessing their career
• Individuals considering major career changes
• Individuals interested in the not for profit and for-purpose space, but I work with clients across all sectors

I am approachable and warm, and always individualise my coaching to each client. I help them to stay focused and motivated, and support and encourage them to undertake their career change.
What a few clients have said:
‘Her clear-sighted and empathetic perspective will undoubtedly help you move forward with your endeavours and give you the boost of support to help motivate you to keep going.' Anne
'Jo has an encouraging attitude and a way of acknowledging that always made me look forward to tell her about my little steps that I was taking.' Franziska

Hi. My name’s Dan Beverly and I’m a Leadership & Performance Coach. And very simply: I help professional women achieve their highest potential.

And for some of my clients that plays-out as a new job or promotion. For others, it’s about a complete shift in career or business. Whilst for others, it’s just about excelling in who they are and what they do.

But what unites all my clients is that they come to me at a pivotal moment in their careers. A moment that will really define their success – and their path for the next 5 – 10 years.

And in that pivotal moment, I inspire my clients to play full out.

Because there’s only ever one challenge for us all. Being more of who we already are. And so, my leadership coaching approach revolves strongly around the 3 core themes of: Reinvention + Creativity + Ownership

As a specialist coach working exclusively with women, I've coached scores of high-performing high-achievers over many hundreds of coaching hours, helping them:

• To be wide open to new levels of performance, creativity and courage.
• To move through professional life with a new sense of vitality and agency.
• To enjoy ongoing feelings of confidence, engagement, fulfilment and success.

Today, I work with a small and select group of clients each year, helping them to excel in ways that enrich a high performance life - from the inside-out. Because that’s my mission: Inspiring impossibility at the pivotal moments.
