About Dr Jude
I’m Jude, your coach, and I'm here to help you reset
Hello, I’m Dr Jude Bain, a life scientist and professional coach. With 20+ years in the Higher Education sector, I’ve worked with many women and experienced the intersection of busy and expanding work roles, with varied external commitments, including caregiving. Many are so busy spinning all the plates and beyond capacity as standard, seeking the "there, I made it!" moment which never comes.

How I got into coaching
Through happenstance I learned of the power of coaching and immediately saw how this was much-needed for women (in my own workplace, at first).
I trained as an internal coach in 2022, gaining ILM Level 3 and later Level 5 coaching qualifications, and have coached academics and professionals across two large Scottish universities for over three years.
Expanding my coaching later into corporate settings and healthcare organisations, I discovered the same patterns—brilliant women over-functioning and dissatisfied. They hadn't the time to stop and think about what or how to shift.
Demanding workloads, external commitments, caring for family, the neurological transitions we call Baby-brain and perimenopause. Powering through is no longer the answer.
Coaching is not for only the highest executives—an outdated narrative. Coaching is for every woman who is carrying too much.
