Did I mention?
When I began inviting guests to share their goals on my podcast Psychologically Speaking, I expected ten minutes of conversation, something I could assemble into one neat “goal intentions” episode. Instead, every discussion unfolded into something richer, the why beneath each ambition.
My current season on Psychologically Speaking brings a mix of interviews, goal advice episodes and follow-up group calls.

Research, for the way you do business
Psych Insights
Imagine this
You’ve built something meaningful, a service, a book, an offer, a way of working, but you’re ready to show the story behind your impact, the benefits, the data, the headlines, in a way that makes the substance of your work visible.
Maybe you want to prove credibility, ground your ideas in data, or bring research into your next stage of growth. You don’t need another coach or consultant telling you what to do, you need a clear, evidence-backed understanding of what’s already there.
Or, you’re in the middle of a live challenge or launch, maybe your messaging isn’t landing, your offer feels off, or you’re hesitating to show up. You’ve read advice, gathered opinions, and still feel stuck between gut instinct and evidence.
That’s where the Psych Insight service comes in.
From fast-turnaround, tailored insight report for freelancers, founders, and thoughtful doers who want evidence-backed answers, to retained services to support your PR messaging as you launch
You bring the questions and curiosity, I bring back a bespoke, research-informed insights packed with plain-language psychology, strategic prompts, and deep, usable clarity. It’s not theory for theory’s sake. It’s practical insight you can apply immediately.
Coaching
I provide the time, space and questions to help you work things out.
Advisory and Non Exec roles
I bring experience as a Chair of Trustees, Chair of Governors, Treasurer, and Advisory Board Member, offering psychologically informed insight on leadership, trust, and decision-making. I enjoy helping organisations think clearly, work collaboratively, and embed wellbeing and integrity into the way they lead.
