Disillusioned with your comms career?

It’s time to evolve your comms career in line with your true gifts and personal purpose.

Does this sound like you?

Black woman on burntout

You’re done with people pleasing As a leader in comms, you’ve probably refined your people pleasing skills to a fine art. But for how much longer do you want to rely on the praise of others to feel validated? Continually putting others first may have left you drained, depleted and burnt out in an industry that is notoriously fast-paced. It’s time to put some boundaries in place so you can prioritise yourself.

Feeling uninspired and overwhelmed Most likely, you have amazing experience with some great brands but perhaps you fell into the sector without a clear plan. Now you’re ready to find more meaning and fulfilment, but not at the expense of financial stability. You might be wondering if this is even possible.

Losing confidence in yourself Maybe you’ve had experiences in the industry that knocked your confidence and made you doubt yourself. Bullies, toxic work cultures and office politics have taken their toll, even though you come across as super confident and are great at supporting others.

You under-sell your skills If you go for job interviews, you might get down to the final candidates but end up not getting the role. You feel uncomfortable talking about your achievements, sharing your story and frequently under-sell yourself.

Your health is suffering Over-doing it comes easily as you love to be helpful, but it might have brought you to a place of depression, anxiety, insomnia, poor health or burnout. Your colleagues and network are largely unaware how much your career is adversely affecting you, but you know it’s not helpful to keep suffering in silence.

  • Not sure where to go next with your comms career?

  • Perhaps your work no longer feels meaningful to you?

  • Missing out on quality time with loved ones through prioritising work?

  • Feeling like an imposter in the industry, even though you’re in a senior position?

How the programme works

Coaching and intuitive guidance to break unhelpful patterns, uncover your natural gifts and fall back in love with your comms career.

Through a structured one-to-one coaching programme, my coaching supports senior in-house comms professionals, PR agency leaders and experienced freelancers.

I blend practical, goal-orientated success and deep industry knowledge with subconscious shadow work.

I also work with meditations and calming body awareness techniques. This combination is extremely powerful and transformative. It aligns your comms career with the “real you” so you rediscover your passions and attract the best opportunities - within the industry and beyond.

Follow my simple seven-step programme

Throughout your coaching, I’ll keep you accountable and help you stay on track through a structured programme:

Frequently asked questions

  • My coaching is designed for those with a background in communications and at least six years of experience in the industry. I also support individuals with a marketing background at a senior level. Whether you’re freelance, in-house or working for an agency, you will benefit from the work we do together.

  • The support includes six one-to-one coaching sessions of approx 50 minutes over zoom, email support in-between sessions for your questions, powerful workbooks, videos and reading resources to deepen your progress. If you decide to update your LinkedIn and CV I can help you ensure it is compelling and truly reflects your expertise and desired outcome.

  • Absolutely. I love working with independent consultants and the founders of comms agencies. My own background in setting up, building my niche and growing my audience closely informs how I support my fellow entrepreneurs towards long-term success.

  • The programme is available for an investment of £1680, with a fast-action discount taking this down to just £1480. A payment plan is offered to make this accessible and affordable to most senior comms professionals. This investment in yourself puts a stop to a life where you’re feeling unfulfilled and frustrated and gives you a way forward that works for you. And where will these positive changes take you? A new role? A better work/life balance? A promotion or pay rise? What’s that worth to you, to know it’s coming your way within just a few months? And what is the cost to your health, happiness and career of not taking action and resolving these challenges?

  • When you start the programme, you may not be sure whether or not comms is right for you. I can still help as you will gain clarity and certainty about how to use the skills, network and experience you have worked so hard to establish, instead of throwing it all away and starting from scratch.

  • The programme is comfortably affordable for most senior comms professionals. I offer a payment plan, splitting the investment over two months. Without making a financial commitment and getting support, it is unlikely things will quickly shift for you. So embrace this decision to value yourself and invest in your future!

  • Life is complicated and when you’re dealing with things like family issues, health challenges, mental breakdowns or financial debts, it can be important to put the fire out before committing to coaching. However, it’s important to recognise when you’re stalling yourself by making excuses that now is not the right time. Truth is there will never be a perfect time to do this work. The sooner you start, the sooner you’ll see the benefits.

  • I’m not a trained counsellor and do not have qualifications in mental health so if you are facing serious challenges here, it is best to contact a professional in this space before embarking on coaching. Often, my clients have previously had some form of counselling or therapy and are now ready to start making changes in their external world.

  • I’m pretty flexible with how long you want to spend doing the programme, depending on your schedule. Some clients complete all eight sessions within four months, others prefer to spread them over a longer time frame. All sessions are completed within a twelve month period.

  • While I provide several workbooks with questions, journal prompts and resources during our programme, it is entirely up to you how you use those resources. There’s no pressure to do a lot of homework if you already have a full diary. Equally, if you love to geek out on self-development, I can provide more ideas and ways to deepen your progress.

  • I ask for 48 hours notice if you want to move a scheduled session, except in the case of illness. We can work around your diary and you can book yourself into my calendar for any available slots.

  • Typically, you can get started within two weeks of making the initial deposit. The sooner the better!

  • All sessions are hosted remotely on Zoom. Each session is between 50 minutes and 1 hour.

  • If any of the above challenges are resonating with you, chances are this programme will be ideal for you and your needs. I only work with comms professionals so I know the industry inside out and we don’t waste time exploring unrealistic solutions or ideas. I give tangible, practical advice, as well as supporting you in your coaching journey to make the best choices.

  • Absolutely, 100%.

  • All you need to do is book a free initial consultation with me via this link: https://go.oncehub.com/Megawattcoaching

  • I’ve been coaching comms professionals for over five years now. I love working with the intelligent, dynamic, driven and creative individuals from this sector.

  • If your gut is telling you you’re ready for this kind of work, it is time to trust in that and go for it.

  • I also work with senior marketers, content leads, creative directors and social media professionals. If you’re in the comms or marketing space and have over six years experience you’re welcome to get in touch.

  • I only offer one-off coaching sessions to those who have already completed my eight-session programme. That’s because there’s a lot of groundwork to do to gain momentum and see real, impactful change.

  • My approach blends practical, goal-orientated success and deep industry knowledge with subconscious shadow work, meditations and calming body awareness techniques. This combination is extremely powerful and transformative. To my knowledge, it is unique in the industry. My journey and experience also set me apart. I’ve lived the work I do with my clients, finding out who I really am, aligning my comms career with my true self and establishing myself as a guide for others to find their purpose and do their best work. For me, this included, learning to teach yoga, living in the South of France as a freelancer, becoming a mum, working with mega brands like John Lewis, NET-A-PORTER and Google on their comms, building the Megawatt Coaching brand and becoming a qualified Psychodynamic Life Coach, as well as a certified OCM coach. Of course, this won’t match your journey, but the chances are if we work together I will bring resources and support that exactly meet your needs as a senior comms professional.
