Josie Shepherd Coaching
Life and Career Change Coach
Josie Shepherd is a career change and business design mentor who works with ambitious people who feel stuck in their 9-5. She helps them uncover what they'd love to do instead, and how to make money doing it, helping to propel career pivots, kickstarting side hustles into kick-ass businesses and crafting one-of-a-kind portfolio careers with a punch, through 121 and group coaching programmes. She is also an experienced speaker and workshop facilitator. An unlikely career rebel, she made her first u-turn after a music degree in the UK and US, switching to marketing and brand strategy, where at 25 she led a UK-wide team by day, and performed as an orchestral musician by night. Her calling to become a coach came during Savasana on a yoga mat in Ibiza, and she has since been crafting her own portfolio career of coaching and consultancy alongside a PT sideline, teaching dogs and their humans how to run. She uses her own experience to help her coaching clients see that they can create their perfect blend of work-life joy by not following the pack. Josie has been described as full of ideas, with a magic mix of creativity and strategy. She would add that she is better when caffeinated, and that completing a 100 mile bike ride having only learnt to ride a road bike four months earlier proves that she is both unshakeably glass half full, and with a rock-solid belief that you can achieve whatever you set your mind to. She can often be found running with her spaniel in nearby Richmond Park, or daydreaming about a future move to the French Pyrenees.
