The Big Life Pivot is personalised coaching to help you understand who you are now, get clear on what you genuinely want next, and create a future that feels alive, fulfilling and unmistakably yours.

This isn’t about blowing up your life or reinventing yourself entirely. It’s about creating meaningful change without losing sight of what already matters.

Is this you?

Something important has changed and a chunk of your life that once supported you in knowing who you were, no longer exists. You can’t go back, but you’re not yet sure what comes next. You want to feel grounded in yourself again and begin building a life that reflects who you’re becoming.

You have a sense of what you want, but choosing it might disappoint, inconvenience or confuse other people. You’re tired of putting yourself last, but guilt and fear keep creeping in whenever you consider making a change. You want to trust yourself enough to choose what’s right for you, even when other people don’t understand or approve.

You’ve worked really hard and achieved tons, but the life that looks successful from the outside is beginning to feel a bit… meh. Now you want to discover what genuinely excites and fulfils you, beyond the next goal, promotion or gold star.

You’re ready for change, but there’s an inner tension between letting go of what has carried you this far and embracing something bigger. With so many possibilities, you find yourself overwhelmed, procrastinating or searching for the “right” way forward. You want to choose a direction that feels true to who you’re becoming and trust yourself enough to begin.

However your pivot has arrived, you don’t need another blueprint for how your life 'should' look. You need the space and support to discover what is deeply right for you.

A big life pivot isn’t just about deciding what to do next. It often asks a deeper question: who am I when the roles, ambitions or expectations that have shaped my life no longer fit?

That’s why thinking harder rarely produces a satisfying answer. You can make endless lists, second-guess every option and still find yourself standing in exactly the same place.

Our work gives you somewhere to hear your own voice again. Together, we’ll untangle what you genuinely want from what you’ve learned to want, build trust in your decisions, and help you take meaningful steps towards a next chapter that feels super alive and unmistakably yours.

What coaching together feels like:

Big life pivots never unfold in a tidy straight line! There are times when you need to pause and listen, moments when the work feels steep, and glorious bursts of momentum when everything begins to move.

I developed the Rollercoaster Coaching Model because big life pivots are rarely a smooth, linear journey! It helps us recognise where you are on the ride, what you need right now, and how we can work together to help you move forwards.

On the Level

A chance to slow down, take stock and hear yourself think. We might reflect, research, regroup or rest, without treating the pause as a problem to fix but instead as an essential component of the process.

The Killer Climb

This is where we work with the difficult bits: the uncertainty, resistance, fear or inner tension that can make change feel so bloody hard! You won’t be pushed to move faster than feels right, but you also won’t be left circling the same loop alone.

The Big Whoosh

When clarity, energy and possibility begin to arrive, you better believe we’ll harness them! This is where ideas become decisions, experiments and meaningful steps towards what comes next.

Wherever you are on the ride, our coaching will be personalised, creative, playful and gently challenging. I’ll help you feel safe enough to be honest about what’s happening, seen in all the complexity of it, and supported to take the next brave step.

You don’t have to arrive knowing exactly where you’re going. But when you’re ready, we’ll strap in (oh yeah) and find out together.

Here’s how Coaching works:

The Big Life Pivot gives us six sessions together, usually over three to six months. You can choose fortnightly or monthly coaching, depending on the pace and space that feels right for you.

We’ll begin with a 90-minute orientation session to explore where you are now, what’s changing and what you’d love this next chapter to hold.

From there, we’ll have five personalised 60-minute coaching sessions. There’s no rigid programme to follow.

We’ll use my Rollercoaster Coaching Model to recognise what you need at each stage, whether that’s space to reflect, support through the difficult bits or help turning fresh clarity into meaningful action.

Between sessions, you’ll have access to me with a messaging app for encouragement, reflection and support when something shifts.

You’ll also receive your Big Life Pivot Pack, along with personalised resources and creative practices chosen for you as our work unfolds.

You don’t need to arrive with a perfectly formed goal or a five-year plan. We’ll begin with what you know, make room for what’s still emerging and create the way forward together. And have some fun along the way!

By the end of our work together, you’ll have a clearer sense of who you are now, what genuinely matters to you and the future you want to create.

You’ll be better able to:

• Make decisions you trust, without endlessly looking outside yourself for the answer
• Move towards opportunities that genuinely excite and fulfil you
• Set clearer boundaries and have more honest conversations
• Define success in a way that fits the person you are becoming
• Take practical, meaningful steps towards your next chapter
• Meet uncertainty without immediately assuming you’re lost

Most of all, there’ll be movement. More energy, more possibility and a growing sense that you are actively creating your own life.

Hello!

I’m Ursula, a coach since before it was a thing, positive psychology practitioner and lifelong student of what helps human beings feel more alive. I hold a master’s degree in positive psychology and coaching psychology and have published research into everyday creativity and its relationship with wellbeing and fulfilment.

Before coaching, I worked in corporate broadcasting and creative agencies. I’ve also lived through a fair few pivots of my own: surviving toxic leadership, redundancy,  breast cancer, being a single mum, remarriage and step-motherhood, family fall-outs, learning to lead in progressive, remote businesses,  building my own business, moving countries and navigating post-menopausal life.

I don’t believe a meaningful life comes from following somebody else’s blueprint but instead writing your own!  I believe creativity is an essential part of being human, and that our capacity to imagine and create a life that is truly ours matters more than ever.

I created The Big Life Pivot because these rollercoastery transitions are more hopeful, more revealing and frankly so much more fun when someone is strapped in beside you and along for the ride!

So what's next?

Big Life Pivot coaching is £1500 or three monthly payments of £550

If you’re ready to create a next chapter that feels more like you, I’d love to hear what’s changing and where you’re feeling stuck.

We’ll talk about where you are, what you’re hoping for and whether The Big Life Pivot feels like the right support. There’s no pressure to decide on the call.
