Kate Kilby Coaching

Ready for a change but not sure where to start? Visit Kate Kilby at stand R530 to find out how her personalised one-to-one coaching can help you move forward with renewed clarity, purpose, direction, and self-compassion.

Kate Kilby is a transformative coach who supports women feeling stuck and unsure about their careers to discover what they truly want, so they feel confident, in control of their choices, and free to enjoy fulfilling lives and careers on their terms.

Kate is passionate about helping you recognise, embrace, and pursue what will bring you fulfilment and joy in both your personal and professional life. Her professional ‘why’ is deeply rooted in her own journey, knowing from personal experience that figuring out the ‘what’ and the ‘how’ of what you want is far harder than it might seem.

Prior to coaching, Kate spent 14 years immersed in a busy, demanding career in media and advertising. Initially, she thrived on the variety, dynamic pace, creativity, and the buzz of problem-solving. But the more she progressed up the ranks, the harder she found it to catch her breath.

After becoming a mum, the pressure and dissatisfaction she felt intensified until she could no longer ignore the impact her career was having on her happiness and wellbeing. Following a perfect storm of life-changing events – burnout, a global pandemic, and the grief of a profound loss – she finally found the courage and clarity to proactively pursue what she craved: more balance, flexibility, meaning, and fulfilment.

Kate’s clients often describe feeling stuck, questioning their careers yet paralysed by indecision and self-doubt. They feel drained, overwhelmed, lost in a Groundhog Day and pushing through the next week, month, year. They’re fearful that one day they’ll regret wishing away some of the best years of their lives, but lack the energy, confidence, and ideas to make a change.

Through her structured yet highly personalised, non-directive coaching program, Kate guides you from stuck to empowered, from uncertainty to clarity in rediscovering your joy, defining your destination, and planning your confident steps towards a life and career you love.

Kate's coaching expertise spans various areas, including defining career satisfaction, improving work-life balance, and guiding clients through life transitions and periods of re-evaluation. She nurtures profound and insightful self-discovery that unlocks new perspectives and possibilities, bolsters confidence and self-acceptance, energizes motivation, and supports clients in better defining and pursuing their goals.

Client testimonials describe Kate's approach as supportive, empowering, impactful, and enlightening, reflecting her warm and effective coaching style that encourages deep exploration and promotes tangible, positive change.

She offers a warm, supportive space to facilitate open, collaborative, and transformative conversations that help you gain clarity on what you want, build your confidence, and map out actionable steps towards a life and career that brings you joy and fulfilment.
