Hi, I'm Hope
My leadership journey started in elite sport and was forged in high-pressure commercial environments. Time with Arsenal F.C.’s academy and Cardiff City F.C. taught me early that performance is always a collective effort.
I carried that mindset into retail, where I spent over a decade progressing into senior leadership, leading large teams and complex regions across the UK.
Today, through Elevate You, I work with senior leaders and organisations to strengthen leadership where it matters most - at the top. Drawing on real operational experience, I support leaders to drive performance, develop their people, and build cultures where both the business and its teams can thrive.
Leading with kindness, curiosity and a belief in others, she helped to transform confidence and self belief through coaching.
I would recommend her to individuals willing to go on a journey of self discovery, working beyond surface level - to discover the real potential that lies beneath.

I’ve worked alongside Hope in leadership roles for over 10 years. Hope is excellent at integrating emotional intelligence into practical leadership. The teams she has worked with build genuine rapport, and they want to deliver at a high level for their customers or colleagues. This has led to faster problem-solving and much higher engagement.

1:1 Coaching
For Senior Leaders
Space to step back and see the wider landscape.
1:1 coaching provides a dedicated and confidential environment for senior leaders to reflect on their leadership journey and future direction. Many senior leaders spend years focusing on organisational outcomes and supporting the development of others, often without the opportunity to pause and consider their own professional path.
These sessions offer space to explore the challenges and opportunities that arise at senior levels of leadership - from navigating complex organisational dynamics and leadership responsibilities to considering future career moves or shifts in professional priorities.
Sessions start from £150 per hour. We offer bundles of £400 for 3 x hour sessions & £1200 for 10 x hour sessions.
Team Management Coaching
Shared direction turns scattered growth into something enduring.
Through Elevate You, I support organisations by coaching senior leaders and small leadership teams to strengthen how they lead small - large groups of people. Leadership behaviour at the top shapes performance across the entire organisation, so when senior leaders grow, the impact can reach every store, region, and team.
Having worked in environments where teams span many locations, I understand the complexity of leading at scale.
My approach focuses on creating clarity, strengthening leadership conversations, and helping leaders develop their own teams - because small shifts at the top can create meaningful change across the whole business.
Team Organisational Workshops

Through open dialogue and thoughtful reflection, we support leaders in gaining perspective on their experiences, strengthening their leadership approach, and identifying the opportunities that best align with their values, ambitions and long-term goals.
