Andrea Urquhart

Welcome! Thanks for stopping by to find out more about me. I know your time is valuable.

Firstly, I’m all about building relationships with my clients and partnering with them on their leadership and personal growth journey. I’m proactive and nurturing, working together with you as we talk about the threads of your inner narrative and how these affect the way you are feeling about yourself, showing up in your personal relationships and in your leadership or business growth.

Of course, along the way, our conversations also focus on your strengths and struggles, and how you are making your purpose and vision a reality.

For me, coaching leaders, campaigners, coaches and therapists is bespoke. Despite a crowded and noisy online market place in therapy, coaching and training, I believe that no two leaders or business owners are the same. We each have our own story of how we arrived at today. Equally, your story from today onwards is your own as well. That’s why your coaching should be bespoke to you.

I also believe that the things you see as your biggest weaknesses and obstacles are challenges that you can learn to see differently – and overcome – as you recraft your inner narrative in an authentic and effective way. One that works for you and your priorities, and in turn, serves your clients deeply and successfully from your status as an expert. This isn’t about mind over matter. It’s about working with who you are and your natural strengths as well as learning to live with yourself and see yourself in a different way.

It’s going to take consistency, effort and stamina – despite what many others will tell you. But it’s worth it and the coaching space is empowering. Talking all of this through will make you feel inspired, lighter and more confident.  I’m here to walk with you as you gift yourself this coaching journey.

Each of us has our own unique talents and gifts – potential waiting to be unleashed. That’s the point when my clients reach out to me, when they know they have a dream, expertise and potential inside them bursting to be developed and they feel the need for a confidential and safe space for them to work out their relationship with themselves, their work and their wellbeing. 

This is about inner growth, knowing yourself more deeply and being strengthened as a leader or founder.

That’s what I do best: Coach and Mentor men and women to grow into their dreams and build the vision they have in their heart and mind into reality. And if the vision is there and the blueprint is hazy, I’ll partner with you as your coach to create your unique strategy to establish and light up your business, career or mission.

In my mid 50s now, I have over 30years experience of teaching, training, mentoring and coaching with people from all walks of life and have lived in different nations. I’m qualified at post-graduate level in education, applied positive psychology and coaching psychology. I’m also an emotion coaching practitioner trainer and a member of the EMCC.

My top strengths include creativity, perspective, fairness and enabling others, which I put to daily use supporting my clients and enabling them to develop the confidence, clarity and strategy that will help them grow their unique business. I see the bigger picture and the strategic details. And I also see possibilities – that’s my creative strength that shines through, opening up new possibilities, developing practical strategies and unleashing the strengths and potential in each of my clients.

I value relationship, respect, willingness to learn and the courage to take action – even if that action results in lessons learned.

It’s a privilege to work with inspiring, highly qualified men and women like yourself who have a longing deep inside to make a difference but wonder practically how to establish, develop and grow the inner confidence and relationship with themselves that they need and want for themselves and their mission or business to thrive. And it’s an exciting journey as my clients grow in confidence, gain clients and opportunities and learn to defend and develop their wellbeing.  

I’m based in the U.K. and work online with clients. A lover of learning, dog walking, swimming, bread baking and family life, I build my work around priorities as a carer, a mum and my own health and wellbeing. 

Transitioning to creating the business and lifestyle I want has taken years. I was spurred on experiencing burnout as a teacher and single mum trying to do it all, when I was advised by doctors to leave a profession I loved. More recently, I’ve overcome cancer and fully appreciate being able to build my own business on my terms. You’ll have your own story too of why you want to create the business or legacy you’re dreaming of and how you need it to fit into your life.

There’s so much I wish I’d learned sooner, but today, I have the joy of saving my clients from some of the pitfalls I experienced and giving them practical strategies and accountability to empower them to be a confident and empathetic narrator of their own inner story, impact lives and build their legacy. 

If you’re thinking of working with me, the best thing to do is to book a call. Let’s get to know each other. My clients are not a number or a pay check to me, they are capable men and women with a dream that needs nurturing. And me? I’m a born enabler who loves the journey of growing dreams into reality.
