A note from Monique…
“After years of always yearning for something more…
I have met a lot of wonderful people. Had some amazing experiences and managed to squeeze in a little travel. For over 18 years I was caught in the wonderful cyclone that is the music, entertainment & TV industry (EMI Music Publishing, Virgin Records, NBCUniversal and Channel 4).
Working closely alongside CEO’s and Executives with one objective… “to help them focus and work in alignment with their goals, to enable them to fulfil their professional aspirations”.
I’m very proud to say, I founded and co-chaired Channel 4’s first BAME Network. Took part in panel discussions for my senior role and was featured in Broadcast Magazine.
I’d reached the top of my game.
Still, there was that longing for more… something different…
I have a passion for helping people, especially to be the best versions of themselves and I had always dreamed of running my own business.
The thought of “How can I align my passion with my dream” kept niggling at me…
A friend recommended her coach. We connected and started working together to identify my next steps.
After a lot of soul work i.e. a lot of self-discovery, crying, planning and battling with my inner critic “Little Miss Nut Nut”…
What followed was an emergence of unbelievable inner calm, self-awareness, self acceptance and the fearless determination to succeed… or at my very best, try.
I worked hard, every day. Fell on my arse, got up. Fell on my arse got back up… you get the picture. Lol
Made sacrifices and invested in a high-end training programmes to become a Life Coach, NLP Practitioner, Mindfulness Practitioner and Cognitive Behavioural Therapist…
and I’ve never looked back!
If you always do what you’ve always done…
You’ll always get what you’ve always got…
Now I do what I love!
I get to work with amazing humans, witness their growth and see the transformation in every aspect of their lives.
I sit on coaching roosters for Smart Energy GB, record label Warner Music International and run Growth Mindset Workshops for Corporate Development Programmes.
I also run a pro bono Career Coaching Program at Working Chance and work with Project 5 as a voluntary Solutions Focused Coach for NHS Staff during and beyond the Covid crisis.
My highest value is FREEDOM and TRUTH.
Freedom from feeling guilty for wanting more, and Freedom from our minds and the restrictions we place on ourselves.
An advocate for women, LGBTQ+, Inclusion & Diversity and Community Care.
When not working, I love reading and writing. Singing bowls, meditation, Barre & Yoga. Reflecting upon the existence of unicorns (because yes, life is magical). Volunteering and drinking fresh lemon, lime & ginger tea, with one of two cats on my laptop!
Live life. Be free.
We all want more of something, let’s go get it together!
