Welcome!

Hi there!

I'm Jill and I'm the Limitless Teacher Coach. I help incredible teachers from all over the world to take back control - be that within their teaching careers, their work-life balance, transitioning or navigating the world beyond teaching.

The one thing that unites my clients, wherever they are in their teaching careers, is their desire to live their life on their own terms and to take back control of a career that, if you let it, can be all-consuming. I've helped teachers to make the changes in their lives they felt weren't possible and I can do the same for you.

There is a reason that you have found me and my goodness, I am so glad that you have! You are so welcome.

My mission

I'm on a mission to empower amazing teachers, like you, to rise and take back control of their life, their career and their dreams!

Having taught for 16 years, I know and understand the frustrations that stem from the weird and wonderful world of education. I have walked in your shoes and I know how disheartening, disempowering and devaluing the world of education can be and how you can, very easily, end up feeling stuck. I am so aware of the demands that are placed upon your time and how teaching can become all-consuming and overwhelming, leaving you with little space to be you. I also had the pleasure of teaching with the most incredible teachers who absolutely adore what they do but are so unbelievably frustrated with their schools.

Do you know what though?

There is another way.

Are you ready to make a change within teaching?

I've got you!

Many incredible teachers love teaching and want to stay in education but so need a change from their current role, be that promotion, a job with fewer responsibilities or a whole new school altogether - I've got you.

Experienced teachers are assets and it's time to shout from the rooftops about how amazing you are! I know right now, you may read that and cringe but why not you?

Experienced teachers will strive for excellence and hold themselves to very high standards, sometimes this can hold you back, especially when it comes to that promotion that you really want to go for but perhaps have convinced yourself that you are not ready. I want you to know that it is time for it to be your turn. I will help you to look at where you want to go and map out the steps, the actions to get you to where you want to be.

⚡️ You will never be ready. Stop waiting and start acting. People are making it with half of your potential. ⚡️

Look around your staff room, look at your leaders and remember, you're incredible, the world of education needs you. If you have set your sights on that promotion, what are you waiting for? It's time for it to be your turn.

What about those incredible teachers who have moved up the ladder but miss the very thing that brought them into their profession? Teaching? Stepping away from my responsibilities was the very best thing that I could do for my career, it gave me the breathing space, the time to reassess the direction that I was going - it gave me back control of what I wanted from my career. I know that this can be a contentious topic, it shouldn't be. Who said that you can't carve out the teaching career that you want? It's time to ditch the linear and fully embrace the ripple effect. I have got your back, I can help you with this.

Even the most experienced and passionate teachers can be affected by a toxic school, in fact over the years, sadly I have seen many of them reluctantly turn their backs on teaching. Toxic schools can erode your confidence and your faith in education itself. There is another way. Not every school is lead by and has a toxic culture, there are school's out there that lead with their staff at the heart of everything that they do. There are schools out there that will elevate you to step into your power. I can help you.

Are you ready to rediscover you?

I love my job but, at the end of the day, I have nothing left for me.

Do you get to the end of the day, too tired to do anything for you? In fact, can you remember when the last thing that you did for yourself was?

Teaching is a job where the amount of work that we are expected to complete can feel as though it goes well beyond our working day - that's because it does! I don't know of many teachers who do not take work home, who do not work into the small hours of the night and who work during weekends and 'holidays'. All the while listening to others talking about how little work teachers do. I even know diligent teachers who felt so overwhelmed with the workload, chose to work part-time hours to enable them to 'stay on top' of their full-time job.

Teacher burn-out is real. There is another way.

Sound familiar? It's time to make a change and to take back control of your time. I have worked with teachers and leaders to take back time for themselves, even if they stay in the same role in the same school. They are reaping the benefits of their hard work. It's time for it to be your turn.

Are you ready to step out of teaching?

The world is your oyster.

You know what, teaching is not for everyone. Teaching is a career that you can easily outgrow, the further into teaching you get the less challenging it can become (especially when you're not growing within your profession - that's a story for another day!). Whatever stage you are at in your teaching career, I can help you to navigate the world beyond the classroom. I can help you to identify where you want to go next, to help you to make sense of the many opportunities available to you and to take the leap of faith into your next role.

I can't leave, I have bills to pay!

For many experienced teachers, the opportunity of simply walking away isn't always an immediately viable option, I totally understand and have walked in your shoes. It is not impossible. If going to school fills you with dread and you know in your heart that it is not for you, it's time to take back control of your career and to create your exit plan. I can help you to identify what it is that you want to do next and together we can create a unique plan for you to help you to get to where you want to be - in your own time. It is possible. You may want to retrain, explore avenues related to education or create your own business that you can start as a side hustle.

So, whether you're looking to set up a side hustle and build a transition plan or whether you're ready to step out of the world of teaching altogether - I've got you covered.

Let’s go all in!

A Bespoke 3 Month 1:1 Coaching package

Do you sit in your classroom and know that you need to make a change? Do you have amazing skills but when you apply for roles all you get is crickets? Do you feel as though you are stuck in your school and that your pay band prohibits other schools from inviting you to interview? Do you feel as though you have no time to breathe throughout the day? Does your to do list grow at a faster rate than the Kardashians bank balance, so much so that it leaves you lie in bed thinking about it?

If you answered HELL yes to one or more of the above this bespoke 3 month 1:1 coaching programme is for you.

WHAT IT IS: A bespoke coaching 3 month coaching package wrapped around you and where you want to achieve. We’ll start our journey by scratching the surface in a 90 minute 1:1 session, after you will be given a work booklet to work through those thoughts and feelings that will come to the fore following our session. Followed by 6 further 60 minute 1:1 sessions, followed up by journal prompts. Throughout the package, you will get access to me via Voxer and share those wins (there will be many!) - essentially me in your back pocket.

WHO IT IS FOR:
* Teachers and education professionals who are looking to make a change in their life or career.
*Teachers who are committed to putting the work in to make positive changes to your life.
* Teachers who are ready to change roles within education
*Teachers who are frustrated with their current role and want a clear actionable plan to get them to where they want to be.
* Teachers who crave a work/life balance that works for them.
*Teachers who are ready to step out of the classroom and education all together.

WHAT IT DOES: In this programme, I will work with you to help you to gain clarity on your next steps, and work towards a plan to get you to where you want to be. Together we will uncover your longstanding and often hidden beliefs that are holding you back from doing what YOU want to do.

* You want to make a change in your life or career and want help to create a plan to get there.
* You are ready to discover the beliefs and obstacles that are holding you back.
* You want to explore the avenues to get you into your next role and create a plan of action to get you there.

THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF:

* You are looking for a silver bullet and want a quick win and someone else to give you an easy solution.
* You are not willing to be accountable or honest with yourself.
* You are looking to tick a box to give lip service to making a change.

Imagine gaining clarity about where you want to get to, allowing you to know *exactly* what you need to do to get there. Imagine giving time to discussing those dreams, aspirations and projects and turning those into a tangible reality. Imagine looking at yourself in a way that you have never considered and challenging those long held beliefs that have held you back. Imagine having the clarity and the confidence to stretch your comfort zone. Imagine how making that change would change your life. Imagine turning your dreams into a reality.

I CAN HELP:
* EVEN IF the idea of making a change feels beyond you right now.
* EVEN IF you have convinced yourself that you are too expensive for other schools to want to employ you.
* EVEN IF you have applied for countless jobs and been unsuccessful.
* EVEN IF you haven’t got the time to commit to you right now (it’s amazing how you can find the time when that fire is burning and your determination is reawakened).
* EVEN IF you have been at your school for the duration of your teaching career.

What my clients say about me!

Don’t just take my word for it, here are some of the lovely things that my clients say about me.

Naomi, London

From the very beginning of my coaching sessions with Jill, she made me feel very comfortable and understood, which made it easy for me to open up and express myself fully.

During the time of our sessions together, I have come a long way in improving my lifestyle habits, as well as creating greater balance amongst all my responsibilities.

Each week I left the session empowered and with a clear action plan. I felt motivated to carry out those actions, as well as felt confident that I had the ability to make these changes for the better. Jill’s questioning techniques were always very considered.

There were many moments in our sessions when I gained greater self-awareness and realised that I was actually working towards the wrong goal or focusing on the wrong thing. I wouldn’t have come to these realisations myself, therefore I feel that my time with Jill has accelerated my progress a lot.

Let’s have a virtual coffee

Debbie, London

I worked with Jill over a number of months and she’s been invaluable.

My sessions will Jill allowed me to focus on myself, think about alternative actions that I could be taking to achieve my goal and digging into what’s stopped me before in the past.

With Jill’s support, I was able to make changes in my life that helped enormously, especially during the lockdown periods. I don’t even want to think about what 2020 would have been like without the coaching sessions with Jill.

I would highly recommend Jill as a coach. Not only is she supportive, she’s empathetic, has endless enthusiasm and her approach made me feel really comfortable and able to addresses the challenges I needed to work through to achieve my goal. She’s a real positive force, I feel fortunate to have her as a coach and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

Are you ready?

Su, Bath

Jill has an excellent understanding and consideration of how I want to progress in my career. She listens attentively, offering support to meet my ambitions, but without invasive persuasion or suggestion. Jill has made me feel at ease in the process which has not been easy at times; she has been so wonderful to work with and reassured me throughout.

It’s time for it to be my turn

Vanessa, Oman

Jill is a real CHEERLEADER!. I am really fortunate to have met Jill. She showed professionalism, optimism, empathy, going above and beyond and she enabled me to gain a different perspective on challenging areas of my life. Jill had the ability to build confidence where needed, to challenge my beliefs and values, whilst challenging any negative thoughts and behaviour with gentle kindness. I value Jill’s experience and knowledge and trust her as a highly skilled professional in being part of the journey of my personal development. I couldn’t recommend working with Jill highly enough. It’s a 10/10 from me! Thank you, Jill, you are the BEST!

It is time. Book me in!
