Ask me a Q

Nicola returned from maternity leave to a role that she’d trained a long time to do but that her heart was no longer in. She talks about how she’s struggling in a male dominated team and experiences casual sexism on a day to day basis. Her mind has been ignited by the world of diversity and inclusion and she’s keen to explore other opportunities within her blue-chip firm. However, she’s been asked to ‘respect the hierarchy’ and not make attempts to reach more senior figures outside of her team to get her voice heard.

Ask me a Q

Comeback Coach is the wobbly-bottomed podcast about kickass comebacks for people riding the return to work rollercoaster. If you're on maternity leave - or away from work on  for another reason - and want to come back feeling prepared, positive and filled with self-belief, this podcast is for you. 

I’m a coaching psychologist, author, founder of The Talent Keeper Specialists and most recently the developer of Comeback Community. I’ll tell you more about each of those things in the episode, but for now, thank you very much for choosing to listen to this very first episode of Comeback Coach.  There is SO much great audio content out there that I am really and truly delighted that you’ve selected this.
