SHINE WITH EMMA

Hi, I’m Emma Sutherland, leadership and personal development coach, yoga teacher, and founder of Shine With Emma.

 

After over 20 years in senior HR and people development roles, I know what it’s like to look successful on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly burned out on the inside.

 

That’s why I created Shine With Emma - a calm, grounded space where you can pause, reflect, and rebuild. Not by pushing harder or doing more, but by reconnecting to what truly fuels you.

My Approach

My work weaves together two threads:

 

  • Practical insight from decades of leadership and career development

  • Mindful, embodied wellbeing tools like yoga, breathwork and reflection

 

This combination allows us to explore your goals with clarity, while also building the calm, resilience, and balance that help you feel like yourself again.

 

Whether you’re navigating change, searching for meaning, or simply ready to reclaim space for you, I bring a kind, down-to-earth approach to every conversation.

My Credentials and beyond

I’m a CIPD-qualified People Professional and a certified Career Coach via the University of Warwick.

 

I also trained as a Women’s Coach with One of Many® (Cohort 5), a coaching approach rooted in compassion, authenticity and feminine power.

I completed my 300 hour Hatha Yoga Training with Whitespace in Stony Stratford, graduating in May 2022, adding Menopause Yoga with Petra Coveney and Restorative with Aoife U'Dalaigh in 2023.

Outside of coaching and teaching, you’ll find me being a fun-loving aunty, getting lost in a good book, squeezing in the occasional run, or enjoying the thrill of Formula 1.

 

I’m always learning, always growing... and always up for a good laugh and a big-hearted chat.

If you’ve been holding space for everyone else

and wondering where you fit...

I’m here to help you reconnect with your values,

reclaim your energy, and lead with clarity and confidence.

Starting with yourself.
