Hi, I’m Katinka

I help high-achieving professionals who look successful on the outside but feel stuck, restless or unfulfilled on the inside.

You may have built a successful career, raised a family, achieved goals and taken on significant responsibility. Yet privately, something feels off.

Perhaps you feel stuck in a role that no longer excites you. Perhaps your confidence has taken a knock after redundancy, divorce, bereavement or a major life change. Perhaps you know you are capable of more but find yourself held back by overthinking, self-doubt, perfectionism or simply not knowing what comes next.

Many of my clients come to me at a crossroads. They are not looking for therapy, motivation or someone to tell them what to do. They want space to think clearly, challenge old assumptions and make decisions that move them forward.

My role is to help you cut through the noise, reconnect with what matters and take meaningful action.

As an International Coaching Federation Professional Certified Coach (PCC), award-winning documentary filmmaker, journalist and qualified fitness instructor, I bring a unique combination of coaching expertise, psychological insight and real-world experience.

Whether your goal relates to your career, relationships, confidence, health, fitness or a complete life reset, our work together is tailored entirely around you.

Typical outcomes

Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, uncertain or frustrated and leave with:

Greater confidence and self-trust
Clearer career direction, including promotions, career changes and new business ventures
Better boundaries and healthier relationships
Improved dating and relationship choices in mid-life
More energy, consistency and healthier daily habits
Sustainable weight loss and improved fitness where health is part of the goal
Freedom from overthinking and indecision
Greater resilience during periods of change
A stronger sense of purpose, direction and fulfilment

My clients include senior leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives, professional athletes and people in the public eye, as well as individuals navigating major life transitions such as divorce, retirement, bereavement, empty nest syndrome or starting over.

Why work with me

Before retraining as a coach, I spent more than 25 years making documentaries, interviewing people from all walks of life and helping audiences understand complex human stories.

That experience taught me how to listen deeply, recognise patterns, ask the questions others avoid and uncover what is really going on beneath the surface.

Today I combine that experience with professional coach training, more than 500 hours of coaching experience, PCC accreditation and a background in health and fitness.

Clients often tell me they value my ability to balance warmth with challenge. I will support you, but I will also help you confront the thinking, habits and assumptions that may be keeping you stuck.

Change rarely comes from insight alone. It comes from insight followed by action.

Life, Health and Performance

I believe sustainable success depends on more than mindset alone.

How we sleep, move, eat, recover and manage stress affects every aspect of our lives, including our confidence, decision-making, relationships and performance.

Some clients come to me wanting greater clarity, confidence or direction. Others want to lose weight, improve their fitness, rebuild healthy habits or feel more energetic.

Because lasting change rarely happens in isolation, I take a whole-person approach. Our physical health affects our confidence, resilience, decision-making and overall quality of life.

As a qualified fitness instructor and health coach, I can support clients with behaviour change, exercise, accountability and sustainable habit formation alongside broader coaching goals where appropriate.

For some clients, health is central to the coaching.

For others, it is simply one piece of a much bigger picture. Either way, our work is always tailored to your individual circumstances.

The next step

If you are ready to make a change but are not sure where to start, I offer a complimentary exploratory call.

We can discuss where you are now, where you would like to be and whether working together feels like the right fit.

If I do not believe I am the best person to help, I will always tell you honestly and point you towards someone who may be better suited to your needs.
