You want to be a supportive leader, an effective operator, an impactful thinker … but you’re frustrated by the demands on your time, constantly jumping from one thing to another, never really feeling calm or in control.
It’s so easy to get caught up in the day to day … stuck in the details, rushing, pushing, surviving to the next deadline. Promising next time it will be different
Maybe you’ve tried tools and systems to organise your time better. Tried to create new habits. But without someone to hold you accountable, and the knowledge that you’re on the right path, it hasn’t stuck.
Or maybe you’re not sure exactly where it is you’re aiming for … you’re wondering ‘what is my niche? What is the thing I’m here to do, which really makes the most of my strengths and I find fulfilling’.
Suddenly weeks, months, maybe a year has gone past and you realise you’ve been doing a pretty good job. But deep down you know you’re reacting, floating, and not achieving what you’re capable of – the things that make your heart sing.
If you want to make a change, but don't know where to start
Discover how I can help.
Don’t leave it another 6 months and wish you’d started earlier!
Organisational Pathway Coaching
Sentier’s Organisational Pathway Coaching program is a three-way partnership between the client, the organisation, and the coach, to identify a pathway for the client to achieve their potential. The program is unique to the client’s situation, and aligned to organisational objectives.
The benefits our clients have experienced through coaching
Coaching was the perfect opportunity to step off the “hamster wheel” of daily work, and take a big picture view.
I’ve had group based leadership training in the past. This was different as it was more personal and always based on real events rather than hypothetical or group based problems.
Liz’s questioning, testing of assumptions and digging deeper allowed me to work on my own challenges to get real clarity and direction.
Liz’s approach allowed me have a major breakthrough moment – I identified what I do (and don’t) want in the next stage of my career.
This clarity has been incredibly empowering and motivating.
Before, I would have readily dismissed the idea of coaching due to feeling too busy. But looking back, the benefits completely outweigh the small time investment. I’d say carve out the time, lock it in the diary and take control over the day to day.
What started as a somewhat embarrassing three-way conversation about building confidence, overcoming procrastination and overwhelm, has become an empowering process that I now look forward to working through at Echelon Planning.
Working with Liz has equipped me with the tools to grow in confidence and clarity, helping me become a better consultant and leader.
I would highly recommend Liz as a coach to anyone looking for a supportive and challenging environment to figure out how to overcome the things standing in their way and realise their potential!
She helped me question some of my long-held beliefs about my abilities and helped me realise opportunities to change the way I thought about and approached my work. I was encouraged to take immediate and achievable steps to change my existing patterns of behaviour, to achieve the things I want in my life and work.
Being too busy is part of the problem that coaching can help solve! Investing time and energy into coaching helps you realise what’s important and ensures you are prioritising yourself.
Liz challenged my approach, and I learnt to embrace the uncertainty. I came to understand the importance of the process and not rushing to solution mode. Accepting that is was OK to not have all the answers and that my situation was not unique. The importance of asking yourself the right questions to then understand what’s important and why.
Liz’s approach is a great mix of being informed but not preachy, inquisitive without being invasive and enthusiastic whilst not being overbearing.
I got a greater understanding of what’s important to me, why, and what this means for work for me.
If you’re considering coaching, I would say: embrace the uncertainty! Immerse yourself and be vulnerable to get the most out of the process. Understand what coaching is; the coach should challenge you, ask you questions and be demanding of you, but the true benefits of the process come from within.
Liz’s coaching assisted in stepping back to review my priorities and provide clarity in the decision making process.
She helped me challenge my assumptions, so we could map out scenarios – and this made my next steps clear and actionable.
I really enjoyed the process – Liz’s calm approach and questioning style really made me step back, consider all angles and get to what I truly valued, before making decisions.
I would say to people – do it and enjoy the process. Coaching in all forms of life should challenge you to achieve your goals and push you further – this is no different in your professional life.
It gave me the confidence to give a new career direction a go – with a real understanding of the drivers and personal benefits for me.
I enjoyed the process. Having a clear challenge as a focus, and the space and time to do the thinking helped me enormously.
Liz gets our sector and this was a huge benefit during the sessions.
Coaching is a time efficient way to get things out of your head. It’s rather a small time investment for decisions that will bring more satisfaction to your life.
It’s clear she has a genuine passion for the topics, demonstrated through the way she engaged and encouraged attendees to actively participate and absorb the material.
Participants truly benefitted from Liz’s sessions: Comments included phrases like “the communication workshop was insightful, light-hearted, and engaging. Loved the presenter and the information was kept to the most important and valuable parts
Liz’s sessions are not only informative but also transformative, giving people real skills and igniting inspiration.
With Liz’s guidance, I was able to find focus, direction and most importantly, passion for my work. I liked the process, as it required me to do the thinking and ultimately come up with the answers, but Liz guided me there, through thoughtful questions and helpful exercises.
It wasn’t an easy process – it required a lot of self-reflection and unpacking, but the outcome has been well worth it, as well as giving me the tools to work through future roadblocks.
About Sentier
I know what it’s like to feel stuck in the grind— burnt out & hoping for a way of working that isn’t draining.
I longed for more time to do the things that made me feel alive—exploring new places, embracing adventure, and diving into ideas that sparked my curiosity. For me, discovering a love of mountain running opened my eyes to something bigger. It wasn’t just about finding more time; it was about exploring my potential in every aspect of life.
I thought, there has to be a way to do this that feels more authentic, more like me.
Many of my clients feel the same.
They’re ambitious professionals with so much to offer, yet they’re trapped in routines that don’t allow them to fully thrive.
They want challenge and variety, but they feel like they’re stuck on a linear path, asking themselves, Is this it?
What they truly want is work that aligns with who they are—something that pushes them without burning them out.
Through my coaching, I help them break free from that grind, rediscover their passion, and build a career that allows them to lead authentically while fully embracing their personal and professional potential.
