You’re already within touching distance of what comes next.

Sometimes the shift we need isn't far away.
It might be a moment of clarity.
A sense of direction.
Or simply the relief of being understood.

Touching Distance was created to give leaders and teams makes shifts that matter most, the ones that move you from:

Unclear to clear about what you stand for and how to act on it
Disconnected to connected with yourself, your values, and the people you lead
Hesitant to confident in how you communicate and make decisions
Stuck to moving forward with a plan that feels doable and aligned

This isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about giving you the clarity, language, and confidence to lead in a way that feels true, and works in practice.

Meet the Founder

Before this chapter of my work, I spent more than a decade in humanitarian leadership, leading teams through typhoons, earthquakes, restructures, and moments where everything felt uncertain. I know what it’s like to carry responsibility, to navigate change, and to quietly wonder who you are becoming in the process.

Touching Distance was born from that knowing, and from my belief that leadership should feel more human, rooted in presence, integrity, and connection, not just performance.

Today, I coach leaders and teams across sectors who want to lead with more clarity, courage, and care. I bring lived experience, practical tools, and a coaching style that is reflective, real, and deeply human.

I hold Senior Practitioner accreditation with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC), along with postgraduate training in both humanitarian leadership and coaching for leadership. But what matters most is this: I’ve been in the messy middle of leadership myself. I know what it feels like, and I know how to help you find your way through.

Who I Work With

I coach leaders and teams who care deeply about their work, and want to grow without losing themselves.

Emerging Leaders

People stepping into new leadership roles, finding their voice, and shaping how they want to lead.

Reflective Teams

Teams who want more than better performance, they want stronger connection, deeper trust, and space to grow together.

Purpose-Led Professionals

Humanitarian, development, health-care and nonprofit professionals who want to do meaningful work without losing themselves.

People In Career Transition

Anyone standing at a threshold, work, identity, direction and seeking clarity, confidence, and a way forward.

Why the name “Touching Distance”?

The name came from a feeling: that what we need clarity, confidence and connection is often closer than we think.

It also speaks to the kind of leadership that feels urgent and necessary in today’s world.
In a time that can feel increasingly digital, distracted, and divided, Touching Distance is about bringing people closer, to themselves, to each other, and to what truly matters.

It’s a reminder that connection isn’t a luxury.
It’s a practice. A choice.
And leadership that builds trust, not distance, begins with how we show up. With presence, care, and intention.

Touching Distance exists to hold space for this kind of leadership to take shape.
Not performative. Not prescriptive. But grounded, relational, and real.

Where We're Headed

Touching Distance is growing into a space that not only supports leaders, but nurtures emerging leadership in all its forms.

What's ahead:

Women’s Leadership Retreats
Small, nourishing retreats designed for women to pause, reflect, and reconnect with their own leadership.
Programs for Emerging Leaders
Practical spaces for new leaders to explore who they are, how they want to lead, and how to stay grounded.
A growing community
Building a network of coaches and facilitators who share the belief that connection, integrity, and reflection are the heart of leadership.

This is the future of leadership I believe in. And if it speaks to you, I'd love to have you in it.
