About Me

Hi there, I’m glad you’re here,

My intention through coaching is to support others with achieving personal growth and professional accomplishment, as well as working with organisations leaders to lead from a foundation of organisational wellbeing.

I’m Caroline Knight – a personal development and midlife coach, master NLP practitioner and neuroscience informed coach. I’m here for people facing ‘a challenging midlife‘. If you’re asking yourself “Am I in Midlife” right now – you probably are!!

What brought you here today ?

I’m guessing, a desire or need for a change in your life, or a shift away from a ‘problem’ in your life!

You aren’t alone! When people chose to do something it’s often to get answers or find ‘solutions’.

Is this you?

  • frustrated, fed up, unfulfilled 
  • endlessly juggling your life
  • feeling loss of control, self critical 
  • lacking confidence 
  • looking for direction and  purpose

 

 Well!  ……………..You aren’t broken and you don’t need fixing! But you will benefit from focus, direction and support!

I work with people experiencing the often emotional and confusing aspects of their midlife

People often struggle in silence with many aspects of their day to day life.  They seek coaching to reduce stress, anxiety and confusion; instead seeking more physical, mental and emotional happiness, purpose and wellbeing.

I work with business owners, leaders and HR professionals. Those with busy professional lives struggling to balance the demands of work, family and home life. 

I also work with organisations and leadership to develop wellbeing cultural change to support their people.

 

We are all human and at times we struggle with negative thoughts or beliefs and fears that work against us. 

Sometimes a little help is all that’s needed to untangle what’s going on in our heads.

 I’ve been there too and it’s one of the reasons I chose to become a coach.  You are in exactly the right place! 

 

“Nobody’s journey is seamless or smooth. We all stumble. We all have setbacks. It’s just life’s way of saying ‘Time to change course.”

Oprah Winfrey

 

 

What shaped my journey?

 

I spent my whole life balancing life, health and work. A chronic back condition prohibited me from so much as a young teenager and managing my life with it was always challenging.  I know how debilitating it is to think you can’t or shouldn’t do things. It stopped me for years and inhibited my life and my passions.  I’m certain my formative years held me back from achieving my dreams but it also positioned me for my initial career and then onto coaching.   

I came to coaching around 2018 from Human Resources and People Development working with all levels within organisations and a range of sectors mostly in science and engineering.  I have personal experience of the complexity, pressures and challenges in the world of work, health and the need to balance life choices and I spent many years supporting people to do just that.

Around 2016 I moved area and into self employment and continued as an HR consultant whilst re-training. Since then, I’ve developed and merged coaching styles and techniques and keep learning through my own personal and professional development. I’ve learned a lot about myself and about the power of coaching in the past few years and my passion is now to use that knowledge to benefit others.

I love supporting people to find their path of personal power and clarity. Helping people become confident for a future full of possibility and opportunity.

What Clients say

“Caroline you were just what was required for me to work through what I needed to do. I’m so much lighter since the sessions. If you’d asked me more straightforward questions, I don’t think I would have gained the same from our coaching time. I also loved that you gave me the right amount of space to think,  and I felt you were on the journey with me. Thankyou!”  S  [Scientist]
