Life Coaching
Feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Aware that you are not looking after yourself properly? Anxious and snappy?
Through 1-2-1 coaching I can help you ‘wake up’ and reconnect with your authentic self.
Together we can sift through the pile of old habits and beliefs currently holding you back, to develop greater resilience and the confidence and clarity to make any changes in your life that you desire.
Group programme
Switch off Stress, Switch on Success is my 12 week small group programme for ELT freelancers: teachers, trainers, writers, editors.
Develop or come up with your business idea, start to implement practical business skills and overcome mindset blocks.
In-service training and public speaking
Help your team learn how to communicate more effectively, manage workload efficiently, and deal with stress.
I have years of experience working with groups to facilitate positive change and can make a real difference even in a one-off session.
I am also an experienced plenary speaker and workshop facilitator
Rachael had always struck me as someone who’s easy and enjoyable to talk to, so when I decided I wanted to have some coaching, I thought of her. I knew I didn’t want someone who would sit there passively and wait until I answered my own questions (which is what I’d always thought coaches and therapists did!) That couldn’t have been further from the truth – Rachael offered ideas, asked great questions and explained different psychotherapy theories which we used as a kind of prism to understand the way I felt and behaved. I now feel on the front foot and ready to break out of a long-established pattern of behaviour. It’s been really helpful and interesting – thanks, Rachael!
Rachael combines a calming manner with an empathetic understanding of how people ‘tick’. Her thorough knowlkedge of the publishing/education industry gives her addtional insight. I would recommend her without hesitation.
Rachael helped me find clarity in a very difficult and confusing situation. She was really relatable and I’d highly recommend her!

How to stop taking things so personally.
Human beings are hard-wired to worry and care about what other people think of them. No matter how much we tell ourselves to stop taking things so personally, it can be difficult, especially if our upbringing and life experiences have taught us to fear (or even...
Toxic positivity, toxic negativity, and how to avoid them.
Negative emotions don’t feel good. That’s kind of the point, because we have negative emotions to tell us that something is wrong, and to alert us to our need to protect ourselves, grieve, or change our situation in some way. But they feel bad, and so there’s often a...
