You care about doing meaningful work, leading with integrity, and making a difference — in your own way.
You’re a capable professional working in a complex, highly regulated environment where expectations are high, visibility matters, and the pressure to always “get it right” can feel relentless.
On the outside, you may already look successful.
But internally, you sometimes second-guess yourself, hold back your voice, or wonder whether you’re truly ready for the next step.
You don’t need to be the loudest person in the room to know you have something valuable to offer.
But in environments where expertise, credibility and confidence are constantly being evaluated, it can still feel difficult to speak up, influence, or fully trust yourself.
You’re not looking for generic leadership advice or quick fixes.
You want grounded, personalised support that helps you build confidence from the inside out — so you can lead with clarity, credibility, and self-trust.
Because the most impactful leadership - at any level - begins with self-leadership.
Helping capable professionals find their voice, trust themselves, and lead with confidence in complex environments.
you might be feeling:
Like you're constantly questioning yourself, even when others recognise your strengths.
Tired of holding back, but unsure how to show up more confidently without losing authenticity.
Frustrated that your expertise isn't always matched by your visibility or influence.
Like you need to continually prove your worth instead of trust it.
Caught between wanting to contribute more and worrying about saying the wrong thing.
Successful on the outside, but quietly stuck on the inside.
You're not failing.
But you may have reached a point where experience alone is no longer enough to create the growth, confidence or fulfilment you're looking for.
And deep down, you know there's more in you.

Hi, I’m Charmaine Reid
Director of Fawkes Coaching & Consulting
With over 20 years in corporate roles — including more than a decade in senior leadership — I support professionals to create meaningful change in both life and work.
Through personalised coaching, workshops, and keynotes, I help them build self-awareness, authentic confidence, and find their voice to lead with clarity and impact.
Alongside my coaching, I remain hands-on in the corporate world — consulting on projects that drive real impact and shape the future of work. My work is grounded in a deep belief: that transformation is possible, and it begins from within.
"Transformation isn’t just about a new title or job — it’s about evolving into the person, leader, or organisation you’re truly meant to be."
“Working with Charmaine has been a real life-changing experience for me. Her holistic approach to coaching has not only transformed how I approach my professional goals but has also enriched my personal life in ways I never imagined.”
Charmaine's guidance has been instrumental in helping me align my personal and professional aspirations. Charmaine has helped me understand my core values and beliefs, allowing me to set meaningful and achievable goals.
What sets Charmaine apart is her genuine dedication to her clients' well-being and success. You can tell she really cares for us achieving our goals. One of the most remarkable aspects of Charmaine's coaching is her ability to tailor strategies specifically to my needs and preferences. I really appreciated the wheel and the activity to find my purpose!
Thanks to Charmaine's support and guidance, I've not only achieved various short-term goals but have also developed a self-awareness about my long-term purpose. I wholeheartedly recommend Charmaine to anyone seeking coaching, thank you so much!

“Charmaine’s ability to ask insightful questions and steer me towards finding my own answers made the learning experience profoundly impactful.”
I completed a transformative leadership coaching program each designed to enhance essential leadership skills: communication, conflict resolution, negotiation, influencing, situational leadership, persuasion, and critical thinking. The program’s hybrid format, blending self-paced learning with one-on-one coaching sessions, was particularly effective. This mixed approach allowed me to delve deeper into the content on my own, then focus on the most pertinent aspects during my sessions with my exceptional coach.
I am incredibly grateful for Charmaine’s guidance. Her ability to ask insightful questions and steer me towards finding my own answers made the learning experience profoundly impactful. She masterfully balanced challenging me when necessary and providing support when needed. Her dedication to my development was evident in her flexibility, exemplified by an impromptu session involving my manager to further my growth—something that was not planned but proved to be immensely beneficial.
I feel incredibly fortunate to have had such an inspiring and committed coach. Her tailored approach and unwavering commitment to my success have been instrumental in my leadership journey. This program has been a game-changer, and I recommend it to anyone looking to develop their leadership skills.

“I often felt overwhelmed, anxious, negative and disempowered about my work. I now feel more focused, positive and confident to manage change and assertively approach difficult conversations at work.”
Charmaine created an open space for me to reflect and asked me provoking questions that helped to challenge and reframe some of my beliefs and recognise what I could do differently. As a result of this coaching experience, my mindset has shifted; prior to this, I often felt overwhelmed, anxious, negative and disempowered about my work.
I now feel more focused, positive and confident to manage change and assertively approach difficult conversations at work in a way that aligns with my leadership and communication style. With the support of Charmaine, I have been able to identify tangible steps forward and have already started to see the results of this.
