space to grow and create

Katie is a qualified Co-Active® life coach with over 14 years of experience supporting clients through personal growth, creative exploration, and meaningful life transitions. With a grounded, compassionate approach, she empowers individuals to reconnect with their inner clarity and live with greater authenticity and purpose.

Alongside her coaching work, Katie brings a rich background in textiles and design. She holds a BA in Textile Design from Central Saint Martins and has worked as a textile designer and sewing tutor for many years. Her deep love of making and craft led her to spend three years working with a traditional tailor, co-founding the Merchant & Mills sewing school, and running immersive sewing retreats for the past six years. These retreats combine her passion for creativity, connection, and restoration—offering a unique, hands-on experience for people looking to slow down and reconnect with themselves through making.

Katie’s work weaves together the creative and the reflective, the practical and the soulful—meeting people wherever they are and helping them move forward with courage and curiosity.
