    A long overdue update Hi everyone, Thank you so much for bearing with me over the last few months, I know I have been shockingly lax with my updates in 2026. At the start of February I made a biggish change and separated my yoga business from my coaching practice, which meant a whole new…

    Dear friends Hello from 2026. Only seven days old and already treating us like an overwhelmed toddler throwing its toys everywhere. I hope you are safe and warm wherever you are and able to hold on a little to the restfulness of midwinter. I am back at work seeing clients today after a gentle warmup…

  • We are Three!

    Beatha Coaching is three years old! I officially launched the practice on 1st October 2022 after twelve years in academia as PhD candidate, RA, and TF Lecturer. When I set up the practice I had a handful of academic clients (some of whom are still with me!) and my freshly minted coaching certification. Three years…

    Autumn with Beatha Coaching Well, it’s been a while. Summer feels like it’s already fast receding in the rear-view mirror with cool winds and rain arriving here in Scotland and the leaves starting to change colour. It has been a long hot couple of months though, I hope you survived it and found ways to…

    Burnout in academia AND 24 hours to claim early bird on the Summer Coaching Programme Dear friends, It’s hard to believe we are half-way through the year, but this weekend marks the summer solstice and all that that entails – heat, light, endless nights, and the imperceptible beginnings of our shift away from the sun.…

    updates and AI Anxiety in Academia workshop Dear friends It has been a mad couple of months. Even though I have officially left academia, it turns out I am still operating within the norms of the HE calendar. I feel as though I just finished the spring semester and am wrapping up the last of…

    …just a day late… Dear friends I was back in my beloved St Abbs at the end of February and it was just starting to feel like the edge of spring. Now, a month later, the garden is flourishing, there are new leaves on the apple trees, and I’m about to head out for a…

    Dear friends last night I spotted the first blossoms on a local cherry tree, and this morning a cluster of daffodils in a sheltered area of the park. Spring is (finally) upon us. How has the winter been for you? Are you welcoming the longer days and milder weather? Or do you feel like you…

Coaching for women who want to thrive at work

Supporting academics to research with care

If you know exactly what I mean then chances are you grew up in an environment where being busy was important. Perhaps you also went into the kind of high-demand career that reinforced the need for productivity. Join me for a self-paced summer writing programme to support you through the season. You receive ten weeks of writing prompts, accompanied by a weekly co-writing call, and supported through three group coaching sessions for the cohort. The live calls are all recorded and sent to you if you can’t attend. Safety = capacity. Open to book now - Somatic Yoga six week block at the Wee Yoga Room starts Tuesday 7th July. One of the things I hear most often from my clients is that they appreciate not having to explain how academia works or why they feel trapped in a cycle of burnouts. I’ve had a lot of really interesting jobs, but they were jobs I thought I ‘should’ want. I always ended up frustrated, trying to provoke change or acting as a mentor to younger women.
