About Me
I’m Raquel. I notice what’s underneath what you’re saying.
For years, I worked behind the scenes in theatre production. I was the person who made things happen, who anticipated what was needed and helped bring other people’s ideas to life. I was good at it, and for a long time, that was enough.
But somewhere along the way, I began to feel as though I was living at the edges of other people’s stories. I was comfortable, financially stable and useful, yet I had lost touch with my own voice and what I really wanted.
I knew I wanted something more meaningful. Something that felt like mine.
I started studying human behaviour because I wanted to understand why people who are capable of so much sometimes hold themselves back. Why we become so good at meeting expectations that we lose sight of what we actually want.
I came to theatre through photography, studied Fine Arts and developed a passion for performance art. Photography taught me to pay attention to perspective: what a frame includes, what it leaves out, and how changing the angle can change what we see.
Working in theatre taught me to read a room, notice what goes unsaid and understand the dynamics between people.
Today, as an Identity & Clarity Coach, I bring that same curiosity to my work with people. I’m interested in the patterns we repeat, the roles we take on, and the distance that can grow between the life we’re living and the person we’re becoming.
People often tell me they feel comfortable enough with me to say things they haven’t quite put into words before. That I ask a question that shifts their perspective or help them see something differently.
That’s the work I care about.
Not fixing you or telling you how to live, but helping you understand yourself more clearly, reconnect with what matters to you and find the confidence to make choices that feel like your own.
You don’t need someone else to give you all the answers. Sometimes, you need the space and the right questions to find them yourself.
When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me drawing, walking, losing myself in a book or a podcast about human behaviour, or sitting with a question I haven’t quite answered yet.
I believe finding your voice doesn’t necessarily mean becoming someone louder. Sometimes, it means no longer keeping parts of yourself out of the picture.
And that’s where we begin.
Services
This is where you shift from “I don’t know what to do” to “I know who I am and what’s right for me.”
How we Work
We start with where you actually are, not where you think you should be.
Together, we make sense of what’s going on, recognise the patterns and assumptions that may be keeping you stuck, and get clearer about what you genuinely want.
From there, we explore what moving forward could look like for you, in a way that feels right and true to who you are.
There isn’t a formula for what your answer should be. The work is about helping you find an answer you can recognise as your own, and feel confident enough to act on.
The Full Journey “The C.O.R.E. – Private 1:1 Coaching”
A private coaching experience for those ready to explore meaningful change and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
The framework behind the work
C.O.R.E. stands for Clarity, Ownership, Reconnection and Empowerment.
It gives us a framework to explore what’s happening in your life, understand what matters to you, reconnect with your own perspective, and build the confidence to act on what you discover.
It’s not a formula to follow or a set of steps you have to get right. It’s a way of navigating the questions you’re bringing to coaching, at a pace that respects your individual process.
How the journey works
Duration: We work together for a minimum of three months, with many clients choosing six months to give themselves more time to explore, practise and integrate what emerges through the work.
Sessions: We meet weekly or fortnightly, depending on what best supports your process. Each session lasts approximately 60 minutes.
Support between Sessions: You’ll have access to me via WhatsApp for reflections, questions and moments you’d like to explore between sessions, helping you carry the work into your everyday life.
What’s Included:
- Private 1:1 coaching sessions shaped around your circumstances, needs and goals.
- Personalised tools, reflections and practices to support your process.
- Between-session support to help you reflect, integrate insights and stay connected to the changes you’re making.
- A coaching relationship built on trust, honesty and collaboration, without a rigid, one-size-fits-all formula.
Investment
The investment depends on the length of our work together, the frequency of our sessions and the level of support that best fits your needs.
We begin with a 20 to 30-minute introductory conversation. It’s an opportunity to talk honestly about where you are, what you’re looking for, and whether working together feels right for both of us.
No pressure, just a conversation.
The Commitment to yourself
This work asks for time, honesty and a willingness to look at yourself with curiosity.
It’s an opportunity to shift how you see yourself, how you make choices, and how you learn to trust your own judgement without constantly needing permission or proof.
The aim is for what you discover in our sessions to become part of how you live: in the decisions you make, the relationships you nurture, the way you lead, and the way you show up for yourself and others.
Is This for You?
This work may resonate if you’re at a crossroads, navigating a relationship change or a new stage of life, returning to something you’ve left behind, or simply recognising that the life you’ve built no longer quite fits the person you’ve become.
You don’t have to be in crisis. You don’t need to have everything figured out.
You just need to be willing to acknowledge that something needs to change, even if you’re not yet sure what that change looks like.
Let’s start with a conversation.
Book a 20 to 30-minute introductory call to explore where you are, where you’d like to be, and whether this coaching journey is right for you.
No pressure. No pitch. Just an honest conversation.
The shift you’re looking for isn’t on the other side of more effort, It’s on the other side of more honesty. It was never about pushing harder, it was about seeing clearly enough to stop, and trusting yourself enough to begin again, from the inside out.

“My biggest challenge was that it was hard getting clarity on how to navigate through a relationship challenge I was facing in life.
There were several breakthroughs that I had experienced, however most significant one was being able to communicate with honesty and integrity about my feelings, specifically breaking old patterns of not communicating my needs and wants as i thought they will go unheard however nothing like that happened.
Moreover, i realised that I was putting too much pressure on myself around things I could not control, by the end of our coaching journey I could break free from these limiting beliefs.
There were many parts through our journey that I enjoyed, but the one thing I most enjoyed was seeing myself moving forward with positive momentum.
Thanks again for the wonderful experience.”

“Working with Raquel was a great experience.
She offered the clarity I was searching for during a time when I felt completely overwhelmed.
Her guidance felt both gentle and powerful, helping me tap into a resilience I didn’t realise was there. She guided me towards making decisions that finally felt authentic and deeply aligned with my true self.
Now, I feel incredibly more grounded and confident navigating what life brings my way.
I honestly can’t recommend her coaching enough, it’s genuinely been life-changing! Thank you!”

“Working with Raquel was an incredible transformative experience.
Before our sessions, I was overwhelmed by my personal goals in my transition period after 30 years of absence from my community. Coach Raquel provided an amazing safe and supportive space for me to explore my challenges and uncover what was truly holding me back as a healthy woman, an opinion leader, a grandmother and a mother.
Thanks to her life-coaching, I now feel empowered to take on new challenges, I’m making intentional and purposeful decisions about how I can help my community, in which I feel more present with a quality work-life balance. I’m truly grateful for the personalised approach and tools. If you’re ready to make a significant change in your life, I can’t recommend Raquel enough.”
