About Headwaters
The Headwaters Story
Just as a river begins as a small, pure source, so too did Headwaters. Founded out of a deep passion for personal growth and leadership development, I believe that the start of any journey—whether a thought, career, or personal transformation—can lead to something truly remarkable. Like the headwaters of a river, my coaching and consultancy services are designed to nurture and inspire individuals and teams, helping them flow towards their greatest potential.
At Headwaters, I believe everyone has the capacity for greatness. My mission is to support you in discovering and navigating your own unique path—building resilience, balance, and leadership skills along the way. With well over two decades of experience across different industries and global settings, I am here to help you achieve your vision with a personalised approach that is as fluid and dynamic as the river itself.
About Me
Hello I am Flo, the founder of Headwaters, I bring well over two decades of experience working across different countries and continents, in roles ranging from front-line nursing, management, education, and leadership. Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate enough to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. My natural curiosity and drive for improvement have enabled me to build meaningful connections while gaining an understanding of both subtle and more obvious cultural differences. This insight has continually guided my development, helping me to support and enable leaders to reach their full potential.
My background as a nurse has profoundly shaped my approach to coaching, particularly in developing people and managing conflict. During my career, I’ve seen the power of good person-centred and outcome-driven leadership affecting people and teams' abilities to reach their potential. As part of working in complex situations within ever-changing landscapes, conflict is inevitable. I have witnessed the positive impact on learning and growth through constructive conflict, but also the damaging effects of unresolved, destructive conflict. This experience motivates me to help individuals and teams resolve conflicts in a way that encourages growth and collaboration.
I am a qualified Level 7 Executive Coach, Mentor, Clinical Supervisor, AOD Team Coach, and AOD Team Performance Inventory Assessor. These qualifications, alongside my MSc in Nursing Leadership and NHS Leadership Academy achievements, provide a strong foundation for the work I do as a registered nurse and coach.
At Headwaters, I adopt a person-centred approach to coaching, as I believe that no two individuals or organisations are alike. My methods focus on creating practical, actionable strategies that lead to meaningful growth and sustainable change.
I offer support in several key areas:
- Menopause Coaching
- Executive Coaching
- Team Coaching and Consultancy
- Mediation and Conflict Resolution
- Career Planning
I believe that maintaining balance and staying connected with the world around us are essential for achieving both personal fulfilment and professional success. At Headwaters, I’m committed to empowering you to lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose—whether you're focused on personal growth or team development.
