What our clients say about us
I've had the privilege of working with Natalie for several years. Her invaluable guidance has supported my development as a leader and has also assisted me through some testing professional moments.
Alex Wright, Co-Founder and CEO
Natalie has helped me bring structure to my thinking, navigate complex situations and work out what is important to me. She has helped me navigate the challenges of life as a scale-up founder/ CEO and how I balance this with my family life and personal well-being. I am incredibly grateful to Natalie for her work with me and intend to continue working together in the future.
Aron Gelbard, Founder
My coaching sessions with Natalie have been a pivotal and invaluable experience. Natalie was extremely warm hearted, wise and empathetic yet challenging where she needed to be - always in an understanding and non-judgmental manner. Her knowledge of business and working with founder led companies was enormously helpful in the advice that she gave.
Henrietta Norton, Founder
Natalie and Dave have coached our senior team and worked with me individually. My coaching with Natalie has been a revelation. She is experienced at executive level and draws on that experience to support problem solving. Additionally, she is perceptive and empathetic. She is also happy to give practical advice and guidance as well as coaching.
Clare Stafford, CEO
I have known Natalie since 2010 and she is the go to person for facilitating and supporting executive teams. Her background means she has a grasp for the consumer, team and commercial perspective of business.
Kevin Doren, founder and CEO
Natalie has been able to provide leadership frameworks, dig deeper into my strengths and encourage me to face tricky situations head on. She has had a huge impact on the way I think about business challenges and how I can channel my inner confidence to put my best self forward in any situation.

Not only do I thoroughly enjoy my sessions with Natalie, I leave the sessions feeling more confident in my role and with the tools and frameworks to be a better manager, a better colleague and offer better support for our CEO. I really believe my sessions with Natalie will have a positive impact on my current role but also my longer-term career and any future roles going forward.

Natalie was on our advisory board from the inception of the business. She is a fantastic advisor and mentor. She has amazing commercial experience and can speak practically on any commercial problem or opportunity. She also worked with us all individually to help guide us through the harder times, of which there were many. She helped us navigate these situations and indeed learn and grow from them.She is a fantastic advisor and coach. We look forward to working again with her and using her guiding words for many years to come.

Look forward to working with you again.
