About Me

Hi, I’m Amelia…

Becoming a mum is incredible – it shifts your world in the most meaningful ways. However, with new priorities and constant demands, it’s easy to feel stretched, overwhelmed, and unsure of your next steps, caught between what you have to do, should do, and what you truly want to do…I have been there! I am passionate about helping mums find clarity, feel confident & excel in their career ambitions, while thriving in their personal life and role as a mother.  My long-term goal is to create an affordable, accessible online coaching solution for mums wherever they are and whatever their budget.  In the meantime, I love sharing valuable insights & content, alongside offering tailored 1:1 career coaching programmes to mums, alongside my main business, Periscope Talent.

Why Work With Me...

Coaching Expertise

I am a certified NLP Practitioner, accredited DISC profiler & trained in Career, Confidence & Work Life Balance Coaching. I use proven coaching tools to help you think differently, strengthen your mindset & create positive change.  I don’t offer pure NLP sessions but selectively use well-established, mainstream non-hypnotherapy NLP tools & techniques commonly applied in coaching. By combining DISC insights with coaching, I help you understand your strengths & improve workplace interactions and accelerate your career growth.

Recruitment & Job Market Expertise

As part of my programmes, separate from coaching, I also offer insights and techniques to support clients specifically in job search – such as proven interview & CV strategies – as well as in personal branding, including strengthening your LinkedIn presence, and ensuring your online presence reflects your skills & career goals. These draw on my extensive, hands-on experience in recruitment. I’ve interviewed hundreds of candidates, refined countless CVs, & reviewed thousands of applications – I know what makes someone stand out!

Supportive Coaching Approach

My coaching approach is primarily and foremost non-directive coaching, creating space for clients to explore their own ideas, thoughts, and solutions. Unlike mentoring, which involves offering advice based on personal experience, or consulting, which provides direct solutions, coaching empowers individuals to develop their own answers through self-reflection and exploration. It also differs from counselling, which focuses on past experiences and emotional healing, whereas coaching is forward-looking, helping clients gain clarity, overcome challenges, and take meaningful action.

Extensive Corporate & Business Insight

With 20+ years’ experience in recruitment – combined with a background in marketing & branding – I’ve gained insight into a wide range of businesses, careers and industry sectors. I understand how careers evolve, opportunities are created & what truly helps people stand out in the workplace. I know how to guide you through your next steps with practical, grounded and realistic business insight. I also have a proven track record of helping individuals secure promotions & roles they once thought were out of reach, including with organisations where earlier applications had been unsuccessful.
