Hi, I'm Eva.
I’m a nurse with 39 years of international nursing and leadership experience. I’m passionate about two things:
Why am I so passionate about helping you?
I know from first-hand experience how difficult it is to find support from someone who understands the pressure that nurses are under today. I also know that as a nurse you are extremely busy and there’s very little time for your own self-care, and even if you had more time, you’re too exhausted to do anything with it.
I’ve been in situations in the nursing profession that have severely affected my confidence. A few years ago, my employment position was abolished following a financial restructure, something that I found really hard to deal with on a personal level.
I loved my job and I loved developing my team. When my position was abolished it felt like I lost my identity as a nurse. I always thought that I was a strong person and had good boundaries around my self-care and stress management.

I also know that as a nurse you are extremely busy and there’s very little time for your own self-care, and even if you had more time, you’re too exhausted to do anything with it.
I’ve been in situations in the nursing profession that have severely affected my confidence. Three years ago, my employment position was abolished following a financial restructure, something that I found really hard to deal with on a personal level.
I loved my job and I loved developing my team. When my position was abolished it felt like I lost my identity as a nurse. I always thought that I was a strong person and had good boundaries around my self-care and stress management.
I lost my job almost overnight and it really affected me deeply on a personal level. I fell into what I now describe as a huge wallowing hole, with no idea about how to get out.
I felt overwhelmed, lost, and many job application rejections were personal and painful. The rejections made my situation even worse, to the point where I stopped applying for jobs at all.
Lost for answers, I decided to hire a coach. It changed my life.
Over time, coaching slowly helped me to see that I could use my skills, knowledge and experience in a different way. I started to see a light at the end of the tunnel and suddenly there was hope. I started a journey of self-discovery that led me to study to become a coach to be able to help others in the same way that I had been helped.
I wanted to help others overcome the struggles that I had been through myself.

Ways That Working With Me Can Help You
I am a professionally qualified coach using the step by step GROW model as a structured process that helps you identify your goals, understand your reality, consider your options and identify the way forward. My client testimonials provide facts and proof about how coaching works.
Many of my nursing clients have taken senior nursing opportunities as a result of being coached by me. As your coach I offer the freedom and flexibility to be coached where you want, when you want at a time that works for you over Zoom.
As a coach I have impacted many nurses’ lives, helping nurses to achieve personal growth, become authentic leaders and build successful teams.
I have 39 years of international nursing experience. When you work with me I help you to understand the big picture. You will learn about evidence based tools that can help you on your journey to self-mastery as a nurse leader
There is no greater reward than to see a struggling nurse turn things around and take control of their career and wellbeing. I love seeing women who have lost their confidence or feel like an imposter in a management role, develop into confident, authentic, and empowered leaders.
This is what inspires me to get up every day and work as a coach.
