The Cotswild Coach - Find Your Path in the Wild

1:1 Coaching

🌿 What is 1:1 Coaching?

A typical session is a guided, reflective conversation tailored to your needs. I don’t give advice — instead, I help you uncover your own insights so you can feel more confident, capable and in control of your next steps.

Clients come to me for support with:

career change or career direction
building confidence and self-belief
managing stress and preventing burnout
improving work–life balance
navigating transitions (parenthood, relocation, reinvention, menopause, bereavement, separation)
reconnecting with meaning, joy or purpose
feeling more grounded and fulfilled

My coaching takes a holistic approach, considering both the practical and the personal — because real, sustainable change happens when your actions align with your values, energy and environment.

🌿 Why Work With Me?

I’m a qualified Executive Coach with professional experience in HR, Strategy, Transformation and leading high-performing teams. I’m also a certified Wildstrong Trainer and a member of the Association for Coaching.

My coaching is shaped by the values that matter most to me:
kindness, integrity, gratitude, persistence, family and lifelong learning.
Clients describe my style as warm, gently challenging, and deeply supportive.

I work with the whole person — not just the problem — so you can create meaningful change that lasts.

The Cotswild Coach offer:

🌿 Clarity, confidence, and meaningful change — supported by nature.

At The Cotswild Coach, “Find your path in the wild” is more than a tagline — it’s an invitation that reflects the heart of my coaching: helping you uncover direction, confidence, and meaning through reflective work supported by nature. When the world feels fast or uncertain, the outdoors offers space to slow down, think clearly, and move forward with clear intent. Coaching helps you understand what you truly want next — and take grounded, confident steps towards it.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what comes next; 1:1 coaching offers the confidential space and support to pause, reflect and move forward with purpose. I help people reconnect with themselves, and create the change they’re ready for — all through calm, grounded coaching, inspired by the natural world around us.

What clients value most is my warm, grounded style - gentle but purposeful, empathetic but structured, curious, but non-judgemental. You’ll feel supported, respected, and able to think clearly.

Whether we walk together through the beautiful Cotswold countryside or meet online from wherever you are; your coaching session is a space just for you to find your own path forward.

🌿 Walking Coaching in the Cotswolds

For clients local to Gloucestershire, I offer walking coaching sessions at Crickley Hill Country Park — a place with expansive views, ancient beech woodland, and accessible paths; surroundings that help you think more clearly.

Walking side-by-side in nature often makes it easier to open up, shift perspective and access creativity. Research shows that movement supports problem-solving and emotional regulation, and clients frequently report feeling “lighter,” “clearer,” and “more themselves” after a session outdoors.

And yes — we go at your pace. It’s accessible and restorative.

🌿 Online Coaching — Wherever You Are

If you’re not local or prefer to stay indoors, we can meet via Google Meet.
Online coaching is equally reflective and powerful, and gives you flexibility in how and when you work with me, we can stay seated for sessions, or both walk in our own locations. Online sessions work beautifully for busy clients, frequent travellers and anyone balancing work and transition.

"Mary, thank you for supporting me and challenging me to think about the experiences I have had, offering a different perspective and helping me to navigate my thoughts to some clear and tangible actions.
