“A dream is just a dream without a goal”

Don’t let your dreams slip away – lets decide to make that dream a reality.
Hi, I’m Wendy Steele. I’m a qualified transformational Life Coach, professional Business Coach – Mentor and I’m also a SEN Consultant. I help people get clarity when they’re stuck in life, work, or the balance between the two.
I’m a single mum of a high needs’ child, I have over 30 years’ experience of being in business, half of that being a solopreneur. I have over 300 hours (to date) of 121 coaching & mentoring experience since 2021.
I have worked with a variety of independent small businesses, scale ups, department heads and individuals since 2021 – helping them retain their values, authenticity and find joy in their work again. I’m currently working with several business leaders with SEN such as ADHD, Dyslexia and Autism. I’m in a unique position because of my personal experience of SEN to adapt my practice to suit those who are neuro-spicy!
My responsibility to my clients is to help you navigate your journey, clarify where you are really starting, explore fully where you truly want to be and then to walk alongside you all the way, supporting you, challenging you and keeping you on track and focused so you reach your goals.
I specialise in helping dynamic SME’s, the Self-employed and business leaders to find clarity and a way forward.
Are you getting in your own way?
Stopping yourself from having an awesome life?
Are you being the best version of yourself?
Business Clarity Coaching will help you identify exactly what you need to do in your SME business in order to align its direction with your goals.
Yeah! sure its about the financials! But its also about the excitement of going to work every day, doing something you love and reaping the rewards mentally and emotionally.
It’s about providing a sustainable future for you and your loved ones, that’s why they call it “making a living” you must craft your business into something spectacular, it takes work, vision and tenacity! It takes planning, energy and leadership.
As your professional business coach & mentor I can help you to clarify your story, define your purpose and make it a reality… What would your BEST year in business look like? How would that make you feel? If you’re not there yet – why not? Let’s explore these blocks and make it happen!
Make your business something unstoppably amazing! And most of all enjoy the ride to get there!!!
I became an SEN consultant 2 years ago after other parents and professionals in my SEN network asked me to help them navigate their EHCP’s for their young people. Just like I had done for over 5 years with my own SEN Adopted son.
I’ve pretty much done everything you can think of on that journey, benefits, education, divorce, CPV, Therapies, personal budgets – the list seems endless! I’ve been to tribunal twice, won twice. I’ve represented myself in front of multiple judges, lawyers and senior case workers- in both the lower and upper tribunals.
I’ve now worked with families all over Southwest UK, against multiple Local Authorities –I’m proud to say we have got a good result every time for the YP and their families.
Please see my lovely testimonials! I support the carers to navigate the EHCP system, the LA policies, their stress and exhaustion – using legal arguments, from the CAFA 2014, SEN COP 2015 and other statutory precedents by analysing and making your EHCP fit for its specific purpose. A well written EHCP is by far your best weapon to advocate on behalf of your child, often this results in a great outcome for the YP without having to take it to tribunal - avoiding huge costs both emotionally and financially.
I will consult & support you on your SEN case journey, coach you through the skills needed to make your EHCP work for you and mentor you to empower yourself with the knowledge you need to advocate for your child effectively. And I’ll do all this with a HUGE dollop of empathy! Because it SUCKS! BUT it can be done, it doesn’t have to break you in the process.
Balance for Life Coaching is my Transformational life coaching service. Working with you closely as an individual. I support you to find clarity around your ultimate goals.
We explore how this relationship with your authentic self- works around other areas in your life, family, work, health, wellness, mindset and relationships, and how they all balance out as a whole.
What would your best year look like in your life? Personally & Professionally? Why can’t you have that? What’s stopping you? Sounds easy to answer but it rarely is!
Our mindsets and historic habits can stop us achieving what we really want, and self-limiting beliefs can stop us in our tracks. As your coach its my job to help you find a way forward, that works for you, at your pace BUT I’m there to keep you accountable to your ultimate goal, be your cheerleader, your advocate and empower you to be the unstoppable force you know you always were.
How far will you go once you get out of your own way? Lets find out!
