Steph is a dedicated professional and loving mother who has called New Zealand home since her emigration from the UK in 1974. Throughout her life, she has embraced the joys and responsibilities of raising a blended family of eight children and four grandchildren, with the hopeful expectation of welcoming more cherished additions in the future.

More than a QbE Life Coach…

Steph’s journey has been marked by various challenges, both self-imposed and external. However, she has triumphed over these adversities, gaining a deep understanding of herself and others in the process. This personal growth has instilled in her a strong sense of empathy and a belief in the importance of self-love and acceptance for fostering respectful relationships, both in business and personal contexts. Drawing upon her vast experiences, Steph is well-equipped to provide effective life coaching, harnessing the additional benefits of hypnotherapy to facilitate rapid change and personal growth.

Professional History

With a diverse background spanning sales, office administration, design, management, and hypnotherapy, Steph has consistently been fascinated by the intricacies of human cognition, interpersonal dynamics, and the profound impact of our interactions. This fascination led her to pursue a career in hypnotherapy, where she discovered the transformative power and immediate relief it can offer to individuals.

The Struggle to Juggle

Trying to keep all those balls and bottles in the air while still feeling like a mum who ‘has got it all together’ can feel like climbing Everest with Gumboots on your feet and that’s not fun at all.  But, there are many ways to help take the pressure off, keep your head above water, and maintain your sanity through it all.  Steph has managed multiple career issues, blended families and six kids from babies to teens, all while life was throwing additional unexpected curve balls … so she learned a number of highly practical ways to stay on top of it all. But she knows the struggle to juggle is real, and can guide you with empathy and practical supportive ways you can keep on smiling when the worst days feel neverending.

The Day the Dog Ate My breakfast!

The baby’s crying, the client’s waiting on Zoom, and the boss is on the warpath – again.  It was not the easiest start to the day when the babysitter called in sick, and that critical presentation was brought forward by a week.  You can do this – but some wisdom on the home front to get you through those confronting moments of ‘what did I do this for again?’ are threatening to overwhelm you.

Coaching, Resources, and Practical ideas…

If you’re considering going back to work, or already did and are struggling with the juggle, then a short course of coaching might be exactly what you need to maximise the opportunities in front  of you, without losing your sanity over keeping all those balls in the air, dropping the guilt, and really enjoying the practical options of being a working mum. Why not start with joining in on a webinar one Saturday morning and connecting with Steph and other working mums so you’ll learn you’re not alone in the craziness of your life as a working mother.
