Create work you’re proud of and enjoy the journey

One-to-one coaching for writers and creatives who want to feel confident, focused, light and productive.

For a relaxed conversation to explore whether coaching would support you:

Untangle your doubt
Shrink your creative blocks
Grow in optimism

You have fantastic feedback and you’re full of brilliant ideas

You’re successful in your creative career, or feel deeply that success is ahead of you.

But at times, your creative mind works against you.

You worry you’re not delivering the goods: that you’re behind or working on the wrong thing; or that if you stop the wheels will come off.

You spend time and energy on battles in your head when you need that time and energy for your work.

You know your creative life could unfold on easier, more enjoyable emotional terrain – but you don’t know how to how to break through and find that on your own.

You wish someone who gets you could help you shine a light on how to re-boot and enhance your creative relationship with yourself and move towards the career you truly want.

If any of this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

And you don’t have to go it alone.

Hello, I’m Jo.

The looping eight-lane highway of creative thought is my first language.

A former BBC radio and TV producer I’ve spent over twenty years working as a screenwriter and author. I know what it’s like to carry whole worlds in your head and make thousands of creative decisions alone.

Now trained in Transformative Coaching through Animas Centre for Coaching, I work with writers and creatives to unpack what’s weighing them down for a lighter, more empowered and enjoyable creative journey.

A few of the many issues that bring people to coaching

Shiny new ideas keep distracting you and nothing’s getting finished.

You’re scared of judgment, scared to fail. Or maybe to succeed.

You’re at some sort of creative crossroads and can’t work out the route alone.

How will coaching help?

Coaching conversations help you feel lighter, more confident and bounce back faster. You think more clearly. Decisions are easier. You feel more optimistic.

The wise, self-encouraging part of you grows stronger. Perfectionism loses its grip. You make better progress, even on work that was stuck.
