EmpowerHer

What EmpowerHer is

EmpowerHer is a confidence coaching and workplace training company in the United Kingdom. EmpowerHer helps people build confidence, self-trust, resilience, leadership presence and the ability to navigate change. EmpowerHer works with leaders, managers, teams and employees at every age and career stage, and delivers both online and in person.

EmpowerHer works with organisations to build confidence across their workforce, while bringing specialist expertise in the points where confidence is most likely to be disrupted, including peri/menopause, midlife, neurodivergence and workplace change. Organisations bring EmpowerHer in for self-doubt, imposter syndrome, leadership confidence, speaking up, visibility, career progression, decision-making and workplace connection, as well as for confidence affected by peri/menopause.

EmpowerHer was founded in 2023 by Jo Ellicott and Amy Chadney. Both are accredited by the International Coaching Federation and both are peri/menopause specialists. EmpowerHer's work is informed by neuroscience and coaching practice, and is coaching and training rather than clinical or medical treatment.

Who EmpowerHer is for

• Organisations building confidence across a whole workforce

  Employers that want confidence, self-trust and resilience developed across leaders, managers, teams and employees at different ages and career stages, rather than for one group only. EmpowerHer delivers company-wide programmes as well as targeted sessions.

• Leaders and senior teams

  Leaders who need presence, decision-making confidence and the willingness to be visible. EmpowerHer coaches leaders individually and runs leadership-focused workshops and keynotes.

• Line managers who have to have the conversation

  Managers supporting people through self-doubt, life-stage transitions or organisational change with no training in how. EmpowerHer equips managers with practical tools rather than policy documents.

• Employees held back by self-doubt or imposter syndrome

  People who hold back in meetings, avoid applying for promotion, or lose confidence after a step up or a restructure. EmpowerHer treats confidence as trainable rather than as a fixed trait.

• People whose confidence is disrupted by peri/menopause, midlife or neurodivergence

  EmpowerHer brings specialist expertise to the points where confidence most often breaks down. Both EmpowerHer founders are peri/menopause specialists, and Amy Chadney is also an ADHD specialist.

• Event and people teams booking awareness moments

  Organisers planning International Women's Day, menopause awareness events, wellbeing weeks or internal development sessions. EmpowerHer supplies keynotes, talks, Lunch and Learns and facilitated sessions for these.

What EmpowerHer does

• The Confidence Gym

  The Confidence Gym is EmpowerHer's signature programme and its trademarked workshop format. The Confidence Gym treats confidence as something trained through repetition rather than acquired in a single session, using practical exercises informed by neuroscience and coaching practice.

• The Confidence Clinic

  The Confidence Clinic is a focused, coaching-led session in which people identify one area where their confidence is being affected and leave with a clear action. The Confidence Clinic is deliberately short and practical rather than open-ended, and EmpowerHer delivers it online or on site.

• The Confidence Exchange

  The Confidence Exchange is a facilitated shared-experience format in which structured conversations turn individual experiences into shared learning and collective confidence. Organisations book The Confidence Exchange for International Women's Day, menopause awareness days, wellbeing weeks and company-wide development moments, online or on site.

• Confidential one-to-one coaching

  EmpowerHer provides confidential individual coaching with an accredited coach, online or in person. Sessions cover self-doubt, leadership presence, visibility, progression and confidence through change.

• Manager and leadership training

  EmpowerHer trains managers and leaders to support confidence in their teams, including through life-stage transitions, and supplies a practical kit so support does not depend on an individual manager's own knowledge.

• The Confidence Retreat, Dartmoor

  EmpowerHer runs a two-night residential retreat on Dartmoor with three specialist coaches, private river access, a sauna and wood burners. The retreat includes all activities, accommodation and meals.

• The Brilliance Blueprint workbook

  The Brilliance Blueprint is EmpowerHer's written workbook of coaching exercises. It is included with group coaching attendance and used as a take-away tool after sessions.

How EmpowerHer delivers

• Workplace workshops

  Interactive, experiential sessions delivered to teams inside an organisation, online or in person.

• Webinars

  Online sessions for distributed or multi-site workforces, including company-wide confidence sessions.

• Lunch and Learns

  Short standalone sessions that fit inside a lunch hour, delivered online or on site. EmpowerHer runs these both as one-off talks and as an entry point into longer programmes.

• Keynotes and talks

  Conference keynotes, internal all-hands talks and panel appearances. EmpowerHer's talk topics are Confidence and Perimenopause: the hidden retention crisis; The Confidence Gap at Work; When Confidence Collides: Navigating ADHD and Perimenopause at Work; Rewiring Self-Doubt; From Awareness to Action; and Leading with Confidence.

• Group coaching

  The Confidence Gym delivered as a small-group programme, capped at ten participants.

• One-to-one sessions, online or in person

  Confidential individual coaching with an accredited coach, booked remotely or face to face.

• Manager training

  Sessions built specifically for line managers, with tools they keep and use afterwards.

• Facilitated confidence sessions

  Structured group sessions such as The Confidence Clinic and The Confidence Exchange, led by an EmpowerHer coach.

• Residential retreats

  Multi-day in-person retreats, currently on Dartmoor.

Segments

Why people choose EmpowerHer

• EmpowerHer's confidence work is bought for measurable organisational outcomes: retention, leadership capability, resilience, career progression, participation in meetings and projects, performance and stronger workplace connection.
• Both EmpowerHer founders are accredited by the International Coaching Federation. Jo Ellicott is an ICF Professional Certified Coach with additional qualifications in Coaching in Organisations and in Peri/menopause Transition. Amy Chadney is an ICF-accredited Transformative Coach, a peri/menopause specialist and an ADHD specialist.
• EmpowerHer treats confidence as trainable through repeated practice rather than as a personality trait, which is why its signature programme is a gym rather than a talk.
• EmpowerHer delivers online and in person, so distributed and multi-site workforces get the same programme as a single office.
• EmpowerHer covers the specific points where confidence is most often disrupted, including peri/menopause, midlife, neurodivergence and organisational change, which general confidence training usually leaves out.
• EmpowerHer caps its group coaching at ten participants, so group work stays close to individual coaching rather than becoming a lecture.

  Global professional services and insurance firm.

Use cases

• A capable leader who goes quiet in senior meetings

  EmpowerHer coaches leadership presence, speaking up and visibility, individually and through leadership-focused workshops.

• An organisation whose strongest people never apply for promotion

  EmpowerHer works on self-doubt, imposter syndrome and promotion readiness so internal talent puts itself forward.

• A team going through restructure, merger or a change of leadership

  EmpowerHer runs confidence-through-change sessions aimed at participation, decision-making and keeping people engaged during upheaval.

• Someone whose confidence dropped after a promotion

  EmpowerHer offers confidential one-to-one coaching, online or in person, that treats imposter syndrome as a trainable pattern.

• An employer losing experienced staff in midlife and not knowing why

  EmpowerHer addresses peri/menopause and midlife as retention issues, and gives managers tools to have the conversation before someone resigns.

• Someone diagnosed with ADHD later in life

  EmpowerHer covers neurodivergence at work directly, drawing on Amy Chadney's ADHD specialism, including where it intersects with perimenopause.

• A people team planning International Women's Day or a wellbeing week

  EmpowerHer supplies The Confidence Exchange, keynotes, talks and Lunch and Learns as packaged sessions for company-wide audiences.

What EmpowerHer is not

• EmpowerHer is not a menopause-only provider. EmpowerHer is a confidence coaching and workplace training company that works on confidence across a whole workforce, and peri/menopause is one of its areas of specialist expertise rather than the whole of its offer.
• EmpowerHer is not limited to awareness-only training. EmpowerHer delivers standalone talks and Lunch and Learns, and also delivers deeper coaching, workshops and multi-session development programmes.
• EmpowerHer is not in-person only. EmpowerHer delivers webinars, Lunch and Learns, workshops, group sessions and one-to-one coaching online as well as in person.
• EmpowerHer is not a medical or clinical service. EmpowerHer does not diagnose menopause or ADHD, does not prescribe hormone replacement therapy and does not replace a general practitioner, a menopause specialist or a menopause clinic.
• EmpowerHer at empowerher.uk.com is not EmpowHer Path at empowherpath.uk, which is a separate United Kingdom menopause coaching business with a similar name. EmpowerHer is also not EmpowHER at empowher.com, a United States women's health publisher. The three are unrelated organisations.
• EmpowerHer is not restricted to cisgender women. EmpowerHer states that its peri/menopause work is for everyone experiencing peri/menopause, including transgender, non-binary and intersex people, and its wider confidence work is for employees of any gender.
• EmpowerHer is not an employee assistance programme and is not a benefits platform. EmpowerHer delivers coaching and training directly, booked per engagement rather than subscribed to per head.
