Coaching Services & Baseline Pricing
Career Coaching Services by Napoleon's Nose Creative Coaching
Coaching creates positive change in how you work, lead, and relate to yourself.
I work one-to-one with creatives, producers, business leaders, and independent professionals who want clearer thinking, better decisions, and a more sustainable way of working.
Some come with a specific challenge. Others are navigating a bigger shift — a change in role, direction, or confidence — and know their old ways of working no longer fit.
Coaching is an investment in your future. It offers protected, confidential space to slow down, think clearly, and understand what is shaping your choices. My approach is practical and reflective, focused on real outcomes. You’ll leave sessions with clearer options, concrete next steps, and renewed momentum.
The process is simple. The impact can be quietly transformative.

Why coaching? Why now?
A Clear Head for Clear Decisions
Coaching programmes
This is about where you’re heading next - and how you want to show up while you get there.
If work has started to feel reactive, noisy, or heavier than it needs to be, coaching gives you a structured space to reset priorities, make better decisions, and build habits that hold up as your role grows. Or if you're blocked creatively and feel like a square peg in a round hole. When doing nothing is the most expensive option.
People sometimes pause at the price. I understand that. The fees are set to reflect the depth of the work and the results it’s designed to unlock: clearer decisions, stronger leadership, and faster progress on the things that matter most.
Start by choosing how your coaching will be funded.
Self-funded coaching has set prices. Company-funded coaching is priced separately.
Self-funded coaching 2026
Starter session
One focused session to tackle a live issue and leave with clear actions you can use straight away.
- 60 minutes: £150
- 75 minutes: £187.50 (often useful for a first session or a complex situation)
Working Clarity Package (6 sessions)
Six sessions over 10–12 weeks (usually fortnightly). This is for when you want more than a quick fix - you want to change how you work, lead, and decide.
You’ll have time between sessions to test ideas in real meetings, real decisions, and real deadlines. Optional brief check-ins are available if helpful.
- £900 (6 × £150)
- £810 if paid upfront (10% discount)
Simple Payment
- Pay upfront (discount applies), or
- Pay in three instalments of £300, paid in advance throughout the programme
- Pay as you go in advance per session
Company-funded coaching
If your coaching is funded by your employer or a company, a different rate applies. Company-funded work carries additional scope, administration, and organisational context, and is therefore priced separately from my self-funded rates, which are designed to remain accessible and fair to freelancers and independent professionals.
Team coaching workshops (half-day)
I design and facilitate coaching-led workshops for teams navigating pressure, change, or growing complexity. These sessions are built to improve how work gets done: clearer decisions, stronger communication, and better follow-through.
Each workshop includes:
- Bespoke design to fit your goals and context
- A practical toolkit and takeaways for the team
- Structured breakout exercises
- A short written summary of outputs and agreed next steps
I’m also a BBC-trained facilitator, with decades of experience working with creative teams under deadline pressure.
Half-day workshops from £1,250 (ideally 6–10 people).
Larger groups can be accommodated with a tailored format.
How it works
My coaching style is task-focused and challenging, with a practical emphasis on decisions and follow-through.
- Sessions are booked in advance, typically fortnightly, with a 24-hour notice policy for rescheduling.
- Coaching is confidential and aligned with International Coaching Federation ethics.
- Napoleon’s Nose is fully insured, and your privacy is protected through contracting and secure record-keeping.
If you’d like to go ahead, we’ll agree your outcomes, book dates in the diary, and I’ll send a short contract.
About Me
Hi - I’m Clare McGinn.
I’m a senior coach, media professional, and founder of my own creative business. Here’s what matters:
I understand the pressure you’re under, because I’m in it too.
I spent years leading award-winning work for BBC Radio 4, BBC Sounds, and the World Service - managing teams, pitching ideas, delivering big projects, navigating change, and staying steady when the ground kept shifting.
Today, I coach talented, experienced, and capable individuals who often feel exhausted, stuck, overwhelmed, or quietly questioning: Is this sustainable?
Modern creative work is relentless, with new platforms, new demands, shrinking budgets, and changing expectations - all while facing the constant need to perform.
I’m offering you the space to reset and move forward with clarity. This isn’t fluffy or vague; it’s about real strategies, real decisions, and real action.
I’m ICF-aligned, accredited through Kingstown College (Dublin), and a Forward Institute Fellow in ethical leadership.
All one-to-one coaching sessions are confidential and adhere to ICF ethical standards.
Sessions are available online or in person in Belfast.
