About me
My name is Fay Horan
I’m a Chartered Accountant with over 20 years of leadership experience in professional services, working with individuals and businesses to navigate complex challenges and drive sustainable success.
After becoming a parent in 2016, my perspective shifted. I made intentional career changes to support a better balance between my evolving priorities and my continued desire to learn and be challenged.
In 2025, I chose to follow a long-standing passion for supporting others by training with Barefoot Coaching, an ICF-accredited program. I’ve been informally coaching throughout my career and am now working toward ICF Associate Certified Coach status.
My coaching style is practical, empathetic, and solution-focused. I help clients build confidence, navigate change, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
I’m based in Harrogate and I deliver coaching both online and in person (locally).
What is coaching?
Coaching is a powerful, collaborative process designed to help you unlock your potential, gain clarity, and achieve meaningful goals. Unlike giving advice or telling you what to do, a coach partners with you—asking insightful questions, offering new perspectives, and helping you discover your own solutions.
Whether you're navigating a career change, seeking more confidence, or striving for personal growth, coaching creates a safe space for exploration, reflection, and action.
How does coaching feel?
Coaching feels like being truly heard and seen. It's a supportive, judgment-free environment where you can speak openly, explore challenges, and celebrate wins.
At times, it may stretch you outside your comfort zone or invite you to think in new ways—but always with empathy, encouragement, and respect.
Clients often describe coaching sessions as energizing, empowering, and deeply affirming.
What are the benefits?
The impact of coaching can be transformational. Benefits often include:
-
Greater clarity about your goals, values, and direction
-
Increased confidence and self-awareness
-
Improved decision-making and problem-solving skills
-
More motivation and accountability to take meaningful action
-
Better balance, wellbeing, and fulfillment in life and work.

“I would thoroughly recommend Fay as a coach. My experience of my sessions with her was overwhelmingly positive.
She gave me the tools I needed and enabled me to step back and see the bigger picture of the challenges and opportunities I had with greater clarity and perspective than I’d ever seen before.
Fay guides carefully and sensitively and has a wonderfully calm yet assertive manner. I’ve no doubt she could help anyone with coaching needs.”
Johana - Senior Finance Manager,
PwC
“Working with Fay has been a truly transformative experience.
She is an incredibly effective coach who guided me through one of the most challenging periods of my life—both professionally and personally. Her support, insight, and unwavering presence made a significant difference when I needed it the most.
Fay helped me identify key development areas. This has had a powerful effect on both my personal relationships and my effectiveness as a leader.
I’m deeply grateful for everything Fay has helped me uncover and grow through. She’s not only a great coach, but someone who genuinely cares and brings out the best in others.”
Naomi – People Partner,
Ridge & Partners LLP
“I have worked with Fay both as a colleague and also in her role as Coach and can highly recommend her supportive and professional approach.
Fay is highly emotionally intelligent but understands the commercial viewpoint that is needed in senior roles. Her ability to see to the crux of the matter and to bring you along with that was something I really valued. I found her coaching approach has been really useful and I've found myself using the skills or insight she gave me in my personal life as well as well as at work.”
