About me

Hi, I'm Liz and I have 21 years experience as a doctor and have specialised as GP for over 15 years. As well as working at the coalface as a GP I'm a GP Appraiser and certified Coach with One of ManyTM. I bring a lifetime of experience as a doctor as well as a human being to my practice.

My Offer

I guide professional clinical women like myself who want to regain some control of their lives, find more time and energy, banish overwhelm and make brave and exciting new choices which fit with their needs and values, stay well doing a job they love, unstick themselves from the daily grind, find direction and master collaboration rather than competition.

Our Plan

We'll work together, using the structured, sensible and transformational One of ManyTM Coaching program, to give you the time and space you need. I'll share tools and techniques which I use successfully myself. I understand how talking to a fellow medic who also works at the coalface adds reassurance and confidentiality to the process.

Your Vision

You know in your heart that you only regret the things that you don't do. You're ready to understand yourself better, invest in yourself, find a more authentic way of being and doing. To take control, make choices and regain balance. You know that what got you to this place in life is not what will take you forwards and that it's time to make a change.

Are you ready for meaningful change?

Success Stories

Dr Sarah Harris-Bow

I contacted Liz for coaching at the end of 2020, having realised I needed some help to make time for myself. As a Doctor and Mum of two I'd lost track of making time for me and really of who I was. This resulted in anxiety and being close to burn out. My negative thoughts and general worry was affecting all areas of my life, although I sought help for a specific work related goal.

Sessions with Liz have been a game changer, and I do not use that expression often as it's never usually accurate. By practicing the tools taught to me by Liz in fortnightly coaching calls face to face online I have been able to gain an understanding into the importance of self care, of my own unhelpful and helpful thought processes and how to achieve a much better balance in life and work. I've retired superwoman and replaced her with much better ways of being that give me strength and power without sacrificing my own needs and value.

Most importantly I feel completely different. Gone is the pervasive anxious feeling, the need for perfection, worry about getting things wrong and disappointing my colleagues and just feeling a bit lost. I feel much more balanced, in control and present in life again and am much less critical of myself. I've certainly learnt that medical school, early years on the wards and motherhood was the perfect combination of learning how to put myself last.

I cannot recommend this personal work highly enough. I have signed up for a further 6 months of coaching with Liz and cannot wait to see and feel the development to come. If you are wondering whether life coaching with Liz would be good for you, try an initial call to see how you get on. I knew after that call back in November that the results of coaching could be amazing, and they have far exceeded my expectations.

Dr C, GP

Before I started working with Liz I was struggling with confidence at work as a newly qualified GP, as well as feeling generally overwhelmed with commitments. I knew that something needed to change, but despite my own best attempts to change things I felt “stuck” and realised that I needed to look for help with this. This led me to come across Liz’s powerful coaching programme and I am so glad that I did, as I feel as though I have been able to make significant changes in both my professional and personal life, and feel almost like a different person!

Lots of people have commented on how I appear to have more confidence at work, and this is thanks specifically to the techniques that I have practised through the coaching programme. I am getting more comfortable with setting boundaries with other people and am more deliberate with how I spend my time and energy, which has resulted in a sense of freedom which I didn’t have before.

I have started journalling everyday, which has been key to helping me recognise and listen to what I need to pay attention to in my day to day life, and more importantly, thanks to Liz, no longer feel guilty for taking time for myself and paying attention to my own needs.

I would highly recommend working with Liz to any doctors looking to make a change in their lives - and it makes such a difference that she understands the challenges and practicalities of a medical career from first hand experience.

Thank you!

AL, Doctor, Entrepreneur and Writer

Investing in coaching with Liz was a gift to myself. Time will tell, but it feels like one of the best gifts I have ever given to myself. Mass media is awash with advice about self-care, which personally was not specific enough for me. The coaching program helped me to get specific with my plans, focus on the things that are most important to me and listen to myself (whereas as a GP you spend most of your day listening to other people).

As a practicing Buddhist I could feel my life was out of balance. It had felt that way since the birth of my child (a feeling not uncommon to most mothers!). I wanted to restore the balance but needed help and support to make the decisions and take the actions to change my situation.

The great thing about having a practicing doctor as a coach is that we could skip all the explanation about certain aspects of medical practice and get on with talking about the important personal details. Liz has a thorough and reassuring approach.

My biggest breakthrough when working with Liz was being comfortable with exploring the idea of working for myself and developing a career outside of medicine. I was able to acknowledge that the life and career decisions that I had made for myself up to this point were right for that time, but that this path no longer felt right for me.

There were ideas that I had understood on a "brain" level that had not migrated into my heart yet. The work I did with Liz using guided imagery from the One of Many method was the most powerful tool that we explored together. It helped to shift that "stuck" feeling that so many of us experience in life.

During the coaching and after completing it, I put a plan in place to start on a non-medical career path. The proportion of my week that I spend practicing medicine has been halved and that has given me the space and time to start a purpose-led business, which is something I want to do. It has allowed other opportunities to come into my life. The knock-on effect is that I am free to spend more time with my child and have time to manage those household tasks that I want to be responsible for (not the ones I've delegated). This gives me more time for my relationship with my partner. I also feel more in touch with my own needs and I feel better able to fulfill them. All things in the plus box.

Dr T, GP

Before I started the life coaching programme with Liz, I felt life had become rather flat and unfulfilling, as well as draining, despite apparently having everything I thought I should need to make me feel otherwise. I had just seen my youngest child off to university and the prospect of retirement becoming less distant, I felt I was entering a new stage of my life. I felt this would be a good time to start to explore how I was feeling and hopefully be able to face the future feeling more positive and fulfilled.

I had previously considered life coaching but had been hesitant about speaking to anyone who might not have a good understanding of the particular challenges of working as a GP. Before I started, I was unsure if it was going to work for me, having never tried anything like his before. However, from our very first conversation I felt entirely comfortable speaking to Liz and sharing my thoughts and felt she had a fantastic insight into what I needed to get out of life coaching. I was confident that I had found the right person to help me.

I really enjoyed the process of life coaching and found it immensely rewarding, learning new things within each session, and having plenty of back-up material for support in between the sessions.

The life coaching programme with Liz has been beneficial in so many different ways. I have been able to get back in touch with my creative side which has given me great satisfaction and I can really appreciate the value of just doing things for the sake of the enjoyment they can bring. My relationships are smoother and I now feel equipped to handle previously difficult situations with greater confidence and less impact on my own personal emotions. My outlook on life is a great deal more positive and it is a journey I feel having started I am very happy to continue and look forward to doing so.

I thoroughly recommend life coaching with Liz to any medics as an invaluable investment with amazing life changing rewards.
