Cathy Nelson

Professional Life Coach, NLP Practitioner, Certified LoA Coach and Career Specialist

The empowered woman is powerful beyond measure and beautiful beyond description.

Background
 

Alongside private coaching, I've been a Careers Consultant for Warwick Business School and can provide bespoke training on: NLP-Based Stress Reduction, Personal Effectiveness, Confidence, Assertive Communication and Dealing with Difficult People.

Fully qualified to deliver advice and guidance to adults and young people, I have been a Guidance Practitioner since 2000, specialising mainly in the Education Sector.


In 2006, I set up Sky’s the Limit! and started coaching privately, helping a wide range of clients, over the phone and face-to-face, across Warwickshire and the West Midlands to achieve personal and professional goals. In 2016, I also set up Life Reignited to help people put the spark back into life and to avoid or overcome burnout in the workplace.

As an Adviser, I have worked with Connexions, Next Step and CAB. I have also advised, coached, mentored and trained in schools, Further and Higher Education, Private Training Providers and Citizens Advice Bureaux. I have delivered numerous Career Management lectures, seminars and workshops as well as one-to-ones in Higher Education
.

​Setting up mentoring and coaching programmes to increase retention and achievement of young people in education and training showed me just how powerful mentoring and coaching can be in building confidence, raising aspirations and transforming lives. I have also coached asylum seekers and refugees, young offenders and young people at risk.


I have managed Information, Advice and Guidance departments and projects in college and private training settings and overseen quality measures to meet quality standards and achieve accreditation. I have also trained coaches and mentors.

 

Interests

 

I am particularly passionate about inspiring and empowering women to take a more leading role in their workplaces and communities, to expand their influence to create lasting positive change and make a real difference in the world. In my spare time, I enjoy meditation, taichi, art, personal development, learning new languages and spending time with friends and family.
