Where transformation
begins

Welcome to Avandra Coaching — where transformation and growth are at the heart of everything we do.

I'm Lindsey, a PCC-certified Executive Coach with over 35 years of experience as a senior executive in Human Resources and Leadership Development across global organisations. I bring deep expertise in organisational health, employee engagement, performance management and inclusion, having led and partnered with teams and leaders at the highest levels across multiple countries and sectors. As a PCC and ACTC credentialed coach with the International Coaching Federation — the global gold standard for professional coaching — I am fully committed to their core competencies and ethical values in every session.

"She Who Makes the Path."

The name Avandra is inspired by the goddess of change, freedom, and adventure — known as "The Change Bringer" and "She Who Makes the Path." These two titles are at the very heart of everything I do. Like Avandra, I believe that change is not something that happens to us — it's something we can choose, shape, and walk towards with courage. Every moment holds the potential for transformation, and every path begins with a single step forward.

I chose this name because it reflects the kind of coaching I offer: not prescriptive, not directive, but deeply empowering. You are the one who makes your path. I'm here to help you find it.

At Avandra Coaching, I provide tailored support to help you find your path — empowering you to thrive both personally and professionally. Whether you're navigating a career transition, stepping into leadership, or exploring what comes next, I'm here to walk alongside you.

I coach in both English and French, and work with clients globally.

I had the privilege of working with Lindsey for six months during a crucial period of professional transition and personal growth. From our very first session, she proved to be an absolute anchor. Lindsey has a rare gift for deep, insightful listening and acute understanding. Rather than offering generic advice, she provides powerful, tailored frameworks that challenge you to reflect deeply and view complex operational and personal hurdles through a completely new lens. What truly sets Lindsey apart is the balance of empathy and unwavering honesty — she is immensely patient and supportive, even on the most taxing days, while also acting as a flawless professional mirror, always speaking the truth even when it is difficult to hear. That radical candor, delivered with genuine care, is precisely what a busy executive needs to cut through the noise and rebuild absolute clarity. Beyond her coaching methodology, Lindsey is incredibly positive, inspiring, and a genuine joy to collaborate with. I cannot recommend her highly enough — she is a transformative partner for any executive.
