About
Anna Puddick Life & Business Coach

"Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living..." If you just started humming Dolly Parton, we might be kindred spirits. That song reminds me the traditional path isn't the only way forward.

 

My journey to coaching wasn't linear. After a decade as an Interior Designer and later in project management, I discovered my true passion: creating space for people to grow and transform.

​

As a creative, I've always marched to my own drum. I've faced the self-doubt, the resistance to conventional schedules, and the feeling there must be a different way to work and live.​ These "challenges" aren't weaknesses - they're superpowers.

 

My creativity now designs transformative coaching experiences, while my project management skills guide clients toward their goals.

​

I create spaces where transformation is possible, creative minds flourish, doubt becomes fuel for growth, and you don't need everything figured out to take the first step. Everyone brings their unique story. Some question traditional paths, others wrestle with creative doubt or seek alignment with their natural rhythms.

​

I help you find your path, challenge you when needed, and celebrate all victories.​ Whether you're at a crossroads, stuck in an unfulfilling cycle, or ready to be more present in life - I'm here to help write your next chapter. And no, we don't have to meet between 9 and 5.

Why Coddiwomple

When founding this company, I was searching for inspiration. That's when a forgotten image I'd saved years earlier resurfaced on my phone.

Something about it had always captivated me, though I hadn't known why at the time. The image seemed to whisper an invitation: to embark on a journey with purpose, even when the final destination remains unclear.

This perfectly captured the essence of coaching and personal transformation - a deliberate journey into possibility. 

The word "coddiwomple" itself - meaning to travel purposefully toward an unknown destination - felt like it had been waiting for me all along. In that moment, everything aligned, and Coddiwomple Coaching was born. 

Your journey of transformation may begin without knowing exactly where you'll end up, but together, we'll move forward with intention, curiosity, and purpose.

My Coaching Approach

At Coddiwomple, I practise Co-Active coaching – widely recognised as the gold standard in the coaching profession. Developed by the Co-Active Training Institute (CTI), this powerful methodology is built on the belief that clients are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole.

The "Co" represents the collaborative partnership between coach and client, while "Active" reflects the intentional actions that create meaningful change. This balanced approach ensures we work together to unlock your full potential while taking concrete steps toward your goals.

As a coach trained in the Co-Active model, I bring a unique blend of intuition, curiosity, and structured guidance to our sessions. This approach creates a safe space for exploration while maintaining focus on your personal and professional growth.​

I am currently pursuing my ICF (International Coaching Federation) certification, demonstrating my commitment to professional excellence.
Throughout our work together, I adhere strictly to the ICF Code of Ethics, ensuring confidentiality, maintaining appropriate boundaries, and upholding the highest standards of professional conduct.
​
Your journey deserves nothing less than transformative coaching that inspires genuine growth.
