What is a life coach?

A life coach helps you gain clarity on what you want, why you want it, and how to get there — all within a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can show up as your authentic self and choose your own direction.
Through powerful conversations and personalised guidance, coaching helps you uncover your “why,” overcome what’s holding you back, and take confident, intentional steps toward your goals.
Whether you’re exploring your next move in school, college, your career, or a new chapter in life, Coaching by MK meets you where you are — in a compassionate, empowering environment that gives you the clarity and support to move forward with purpose.

Meet Maureen

A coach, educator, and lifelong advocate for growth and self-discovery

For over 20 years, I worked in education as a Teacher, School Counsellor, Special Educational Needs Coordinator, Wellbeing Coordinator, and School Principal. During that time, I walked alongside hundreds of teens and young adults as they faced one of life’s hardest questions: “Who am I, and where am I going?”

I’ve seen first hand the pressure, uncertainty, and expectation that come with standing on the edge of adulthood. For young people, and the parents supporting them, I created a space where clarity, confidence, and direction could emerge. A space rooted in empathy, trust, and growth.

Eventually, I found myself facing those same questions.

My turning point

After two decades in a career I had poured my heart into, burnout brought everything to a halt. At the same time, I was privately navigating a long battle with endometriosis. It was a painful and isolating struggle that led to a total hysterectomy at age 42. I was thrown into surgical menopause before I was ready, both physically and emotionally.

Those life-altering experiences stripped away the roles I had clung to and asked me to start again. Not as a teacher, not as a leader, but as me.

Rediscovering my why

I chose to step into the unknown and reassess my purpose. That journey led me to healing, growth, and the truest version of myself so far. It brought together my Jay Shetty Coaching School Certification, my career in education, and my own personal experience, all of which now shape the heart of Coaching by MK.

Who I work with

I’m passionate about working with:

  • Teens & Young adults navigating their future

  • Parents seeking support for their children

  • Women who feel like they've lost themselves while caring for others through career, motherhood, or life transitions

If you're ready to reconnect with your voice, your purpose, and your self-worth, I offer a compassionate and empowering space where that journey can begin.

At its core...

My work is about helping you uncover your why, the thread that connects who you are with where you want to go. Whether you're just starting out or starting over, it’s never too early or too late to step into a life that feels aligned, intentional, and true to you.

And when you're ready to begin, I’ll be here.
