Julie Nelson

Associate Certified Coach - International Coaching Federation

I am dedicated to empowering managers, leaders and women to progress in their careers with a personal and authentic approach. I bring a deep passion to support clients in their personal and professional journey of self-discovery and growth by creating a safe and non-judgemental space where they can explore their passion, goals, challenges and aspirations.

My coaching style is person-centred, holistic and transformational, helping clients to identify their core values, strengths and areas for growth. I encourage clients to set clear and meaningful goals aligned to their aspirations, and with a person-centred approach I adapt my coaching approach, methods and techniques to meet the needs of each client.  

I genuinely enjoy what I do and strongly believe that a personable and authentic approach, along with a smile, can go a long way to creating an open, trusting and successful coaching relationship.

Julie Testimonials

Julie was professional & personable. She asked pertinent questions & actively listened. It was the first time that I’ve done any coaching and I really enjoyed it, & felt that I got so much from it.

I left my parental transition coaching with a clearer view of how I will approach going back to work. Thank you Julie.

Team Manager, Retail

SS, Executive Assistant

“Julie is truly inspiring, one of the most intuitive, humorous, empathetic coaches I’ve ever had! She has a talent for asking the right questions to help you explore your thoughts while somehow managing to keep you focused and on track. I came away from coaching sessions invigorated with a sense of direction and purpose that was sorely lacking before. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”

MD, Company Director

“Julie is an excellent coach who always makes everyone welcome in her sessions. She has such a genuine heart & her passion for her work is inspiring. Julie delivers her work to full capacity and is always calm and patient. I gained so much knowledge and confidence by being coached by Julie. It gave me the confidence to set out to becoming a yoga teacher at the age of 51. I now am the owner of a successful Yoga business. Thank you, Julie!”

Julie possesses a unique blend of warmth, humour, courage, and empathy that sets her apart as a coach. Her bold and integral approach, integrating not just the mind but also the body and emotions, truly transformed my coaching experience.

Julie's dedication to her craft and her commitment to personal growth shine through in her coaching, making her a valuable asset to the coaching community. I have no doubt that Julie will continue to inspire and empower those she coaches, just as she did for me”.
