About Me

“More than being able to see the wood for the trees, she has an uncanny ability to ask the right questions. She’s unflappable, practical and incredibly wise – we need people like that in our lives.

– Tracy Short

Creatives and Leaders, I Get You!

I think like you do, always coming up with ideas and seeing the world differently.

Whether you’re a creative wanting to bring your vision to life, an entrepreneur feeling stuck and frustrated, or a leader wanting to shake things up in your organisation, I understand your world.

I know what it’s like to juggle creativity with practicality without it feeling rigid and restrictive.  You don’t want another bland strategy.  You want someone who understands your world and will keep things fluid.

I know the challenges you face… having lots of ideas, moments of doubt followed by bursts of inspiration. But knowing what to do with all that? That’s where I step in.

Your Transformation

Right now, you want someone to be honest with you and give you much-needed clarity on where you’re headed.  You want to be certain which direction is best because you want it aligned with your values rather than feeling frustrated.

So consider this…  How would it feel to no longer have those feelings of overwhelm, frustration or as though you are stuck in a rut?

Picture yourself feeling clear about your direction.  Going from feeling unsure with no starting point to knowing exactly where you’re going and how you’ll get there.

Think of me as your personal satnav!  Helping you navigate your way from where you are now to where you want to be, finding the best route that works for you.

My Approach

I’m not your typical business mentor or consultant. I’m someone who thinks about how everything fits together, taking a holistic approach whilst considering how it feeds into what you’re looking to achieve. 

People often tell me they love how my neurodivergent brain works because I instinctively know what will work for them.  I’m a blend of creative, strategic, pragmatic and analytical and that means I can see opportunities and solutions that others might miss.  When I share thoughts and ideas, clients often say, “Wow, I would never have thought of that” – in a good way, of course!

Here’s how I approach things:

  • No stuffy business chat or rigid methods
  • Keeping things flowing, staying curious, innovative with an added dose of fun
  • Knowing the “right” questions to ask whilst listening out for the unspoken words
  • Occasionally playing devil’s advocate to help you consider different perspectives

It’s worth noting that clients often refer to me as a coach because of the approach I take.  But what I offer is different, it’s flexible and it mixes coaching, mentoring, and consultancy.

Why Work With Me?

I won’t tell you what you want to hear.

I’ll tell you what you need to hear to help you move forward.

I help build your confidence whilst challenging you in an honest, supportive way.  I focus on the details but also see the bigger picture, it’s a combination that works really well.

I instinctively know what works and I’m excellent at spotting gaps and what’s missing.

In our sessions, you might turn up with too many ideas whizzing around your head, unable to make sense of them or completely lost about what to do first.  Maybe imposter syndrome has crept in, or bright shiny things are pulling you in different directions.

I’ll give you clarity, offer a different perspective, and new ways to see things, with suggestions that challenge how you’re thinking right now and help you move forward.

“Louisa went above and beyond to get to know me, my business, my story, my brand and what I wanted to achieve. She believed in me, championed me and celebrated with me when I started getting results.” – Anon

Working Together

“The best part is that Louisa guides and encourages with warmth and humanity. There’s no judgement or ‘my way or the high way’ approach because she truly understands people and that everyone has their own voice and story.” – Samantha Lynne

I’m passionate about working with creative thinkers and innovative leaders.  Using what I know and my experience, I help fill in the gaps so you get the results you’re after.  Whether that’s clarity, direction, or someone to keep you accountable so you feel empowered and excited about what’s next.

It’s about creating the right plans to help you ditch the overwhelm and frustrations, so you can succeed in your own way.
