Coaching Services:
FIRST LEADERSHIP ROLE
First time leaders are often thrown in at the deep end. The hunger is there - to make an impact, to do it differently, and to lead intentionally. But the support rarely is. That's where I come in. To support new leaders to do it well - without losing themselves in the process.
finding alignment
Work and life aren't separate. Sometimes one outweighs the other. Sometimes everything looks fine on paper but something still isn't clicking. This is a holistic look at who you are, what you want, and how to build a career and life that actually fit together.
LIFE COACHING
This is about you, not your job title. Whether you're trying to figure out what matters to you, navigating a challenging personal situation, or simply want to understand yourself better - this is for you. You'll leave with a clearer sense of who you are, what you want, and the motivation to go after it.
EXECutives & SENIOR LEADERS
For founders and executives, it's easy to get pulled into the day to day. The fires, the politics, the noise. This is a high-challenge, confidential space to step back, get strategic, and lead with intention.
Previous clients describe my coaching style as:
"Adaptable, warm, and approachable, but with a no-nonsense edge. Alya provides a grounded space that balances high challenge with a reassuring, calm presence."
"Inquisitive and thoughtful. She has a knack for asking clear, thought-provoking questions that get straight to the heart of the issue."
"Strong, present, and incredibly powerful. Her style is calm and direct, offering honest feedback and deep reflections that consistently add value."
"Alya brings a rich bank of experience and a strong sense of identity. She shares deep insights that spark fresh thinking and help others grow with confidence."
Getting started

We start with a free 30-minute virtual chemistry call to see if we're the right fit. We'll cover who you are and what's brought you here, what coaching is and isn't, your goals, and any questions you have for me.
If it feels right for both of us, we move forward. Most sessions are virtual, but in-person is an option if you'd prefer.
We can book your first block of sessions or schedule the full series upfront - whatever works best for you.

These sessions were incredibly useful for gaining perspective and learning how to clear my head to think productively in the moment. Alya helped me set clear goals and create choices in how to reach them. Having a practical trigger to ‘buy time’ when I’m under pressure has been a total game-changer. Thank you, Alya :)
Director of People & Talent,
Software/Life Sciences
Alya was a fantastic coach during my career transition. She has an incredible ability to adapt to what you need, helping me find focus even when I wasn't sure of my own direction. She created such a safe, approachable space to discuss things openly - I absolutely recommend her.
Chief Operating Officer, Consulting
My coaching journey with Alya was highly impactful. She combined psychological safety with direct, focused challenge that kept me on track and moving forward. It supported deep self awareness and translated insight into clear action, resulting in lasting shifts in confidence, boundaries, and leadership presence.
Head of HR & Development, Manufacturing
Coaching, for me, is about meeting you where you're at.
It's a confidential space to unpick the complexities of leadership and life - to get honest about what's really going on, and where you want to go.
Together, we explore the hidden drivers behind how you show up, so that your leadership, or your next chapter, is aligned with who you truly are. Not a version of you that looks good on paper, but one that's sustainable and feels like you.
Whether you're a founder scaling your business, a leader stepping into your first senior role, or someone searching for better alignment between your work and your world, let's focus on grounding your path in self-awareness and practical action.
