CREATIVE COACHING
for work and life
MEET YOUR COACH
Hi, I’m Allison!
I help creative professionals find clarity, confidence, and momentum - not just in their careers, but in their lives (because you know it’s never just about work).
I believe that when you reconnect with your values and sense of purpose, you unlock what it really means to live your version of a fulfilling life - not the one everyone else expects.
I’m trained by the ICF-accredited Co-Active Training Institute (CTI) - the world’s longest-running coaching school - and I hold a BA in Music Education from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland & University of Glasgow.
But more importantly? I bring playful energy, real talk, and a safe space where every emotion is welcome. Whether you’re excited, stuck, shy, overwhelmed, or unsure - I’ve got you.
Together, we’ll explore your ideas, clear the fog, and find progress that actually feels good. No more goals written by society’s rulebook.
LET’S GET YOU MOVING - GENTLY
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed by ideas, or craving clarity about your next step - in work, life, or creativity?
I offer 1:1 coaching designed to help multi-passionate humans (like you) clear the clutter (literal and metaphorical!), reconnect with what matters, and move forward in a way that actually feels good.
Not ready to jump into coaching just yet? No problem - I’ve got a cosy starting point for you:
✨ Grab my a free copy of WHAT TO DO NEXT: The Creative Reorientation Handbook when you join my newsletter. It’s a gentle nudge towards clarity.
And when you are ready for personalised support...
👉 The WHAT TO DO NEXT Session is a powerful one-off coaching call to help you find clarity, confidence, and your next step - fast, but friendly.
Whether you’re figuring out your next creative move or untangling life’s general chaos - I’m here when you need me.
P.S. Got a team or group that could use this kind of support? I work with purpose-led organisations too - just reach out and we’ll chat.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER…
“Allison has been a huge help. When we started working together, I was having trouble making ends meet and was procrastinating daily from doing my creative work.
Six months later, I’ve doubled my revenue and the hours I spend creating each week.
She’s helped me drop energy sucks, focus on my long-term vision, and actually commit to it.
Highly recommend!”

WHAT YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW
-
A. Babe, I’m Scottish, working class, and neurodivergent.
If coaching were bullshit, I wouldn’t be doing it. Trust me.
This isn’t about toxic positivity, vague advice, or charging you to “manifest” your dreams.
(Although the delulu will get you places sometimes!)
It’s about having someone in your corner who asks the right questions, helps you clear the metaphorical fog, and supports you to make choices that feel right for you.
No gimmicks. No guru vibes. Just real conversations that help you get unstuck. -
A: Absolutely. You’re my kind of human.
As a fellow neurodivergent creative, I get what it’s like to have a brain and nervous system that don’t play by “productivity rules”: the overwhelm, the idea avalanches, the executive dysfunction wall, the "why am I crying in the shower while eating lasagne" moments.
Coaching with me isn’t about forcing you into neurotypical systems. It’s about finding what works for your nervous system, your energy, and your life.We’ll create space for self-compassion, celebrate how your system actually works, and figure out ways to move forward that don’t involve burnout or pretending to be someone you’re not.
-
A: That’s what I’m here for 😊
Most of the brilliant, multi-passionate humans I work with don’t have a crystal-clear vision when they arrive. They just know they’re stuck, overwhelmed, or tired of second-guessing themselves.
You don’t need to know exactly what you want before we start.
Coaching is where we untangle the fog, quiet the “shoulds,” and figure out what feels right for you, right now.
It’s not about mapping out your whole life. It’s about discovering your next step (and maybe the one after that). -
Then, let’s chat 💬
INCLUSIVITY
I Don’t Fit in A Box, So Why Should You?
This is a space for the humans who’ve been told they’re too much, not enough, too different, or don’t quite fit.
Whether that’s because of your identity, your background, your neurotype, your body, your culture, or just the fact that you refuse to follow someone else’s rulebook - you’re welcome here.
I’m committed to creating a coaching space where you don’t have to shrink, mask, or explain the parts of you that traditional spaces don’t always make room for.
I believe coaching should honour you - your lived experience, your values, your pace, and your way of existing in the world.
No boxes. No apologies.
Just a space where you get to be fully seen - big messy feelings and all.
If you’re wondering if this is a safe space for you - it is. If you ever want to ask more about how I hold that space, send me a message.
