Making quiet voices heard
I am here to help you to confidently be yourself at work and find your authentic way to thrive in your career as an introvert.
As a fellow introvert, I understand how navigating your career in a loud world can be tough. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Understanding your values, strengths, and exploring challenges through coaching can transform your path to achieving goals. It’s only when you are able to do more of what you are great at, and manage your energy to tackle activities that stretch you, that you’ll find fulfilment at work.
With 20 years of experience in large organisations, I’ve learned a lot about working in the corporate landscape while staying true to who I am. That’s why I started “The Quiet Catalyst” – it’s more than just a business name; it’s a reflection of my journey and a platform to create opportunity for fellow introverts.
Throughout my career I have loved the chance to get into the detail of all the technical aspects that marketing roles in the healthcare space can bring. I found that I enjoyed managing people and helping them to grow with a natural coaching style to leadership.
As my career grew my biggest challenge was being overlooked and spoken over by louder colleagues. I was left feeling like I was in the wrong place, drained and frustrated. My confidence took a serious knock and I actually thought there was something wrong with me. However, coaching helped me to understand the power of my quiet strengths and how to have impact in a way that left me energised and excited for the next day.
I’m passionate about helping others, so it is important for me to share my experiences, know-how, and support through my work. I’m on a mission to shake up the status quo about what it takes to be successful as an introvert and to demonstrate how quiet can be a catalyst for everyone’s professional growth.
Outside of work, I particularly enjoy running and walking. I find spending time outside in nature really restorative and it helps me to refill my battery, especially when I am feeling ‘peopled-out’. Like many introverts, I find the ultimate escapism in unwinding with a good book (ideally under a cosy blanket).

An “impact” means a measurable unit of positive change created in the world. It’s typically broken down into one item (e.g. a tree, a meal or a book) or one day of specific support and access to resources provided to uplift lives.
