Meet Penny Delve

Hi I am Penny,

I never know what to write in these sections as no one wants a whole life story but you probably do want to know a bit more about me?

I am a gregarious individual with a passion for life and personal development. I approach everything with my 3 Ps - positivity, possibility and potential. I am also married with two amazing kids and two furry children (my cat and dog!)

I spent the first 15 years of my working life in Financial Recruitment which was fantastic for me and I met some wonderful people, made some great money and eventually set up my own business in recruitment.

Everything looked shiny from the outside (as it always does right?)

But after a while, I felt a bit lost, something was missing for me.

I started to question my own career/life choices and was feeling over stretched by kids, work and life. Was the path I was on making me truly happy? I was thinking, “is this it now forever?”

Then my brother sadly died. He was only 39 and this impacted my life enormously.

It gave me the wake-up call to start truly living. I began investing in myself and living a life that gave me joy and purpose. I also retrained as a Coach.

It is so easy to keep you head down and get stuck on auto pilot, becoming overwhelmed, over scheduled, stressed and fatigued by life, letting unhealthy habits take over and making excuses why you haven't changed jobs, started that business, got promoted, done more exercise, taken up that hobby, or questioned why you are so tired or hold yourself back all the time.

Looking back, I had become tangled up in these behaviours but I became determined to take something positive out of this family tragedy. It was a wakeup call to take action knowing that life is so precious.

We only get one chance at life so stop waiting for the perfect moment to make a change.

I am now on a mission to help as many people as possible to stop surviving and start thriving in all areas of their life! To turn off their auto pilot, hold a mirror up to themselves and start taking courageous action!

Knowing I can make a difference to someone’s work and life is the most rewarding job.

In recent years, I have worked with multiple senior executives and entrepreneurs in a coaching relationship and I have loved it!

I am also delighted to work part time in house with Falcon Brook Search as their Head of Growth. In this role I focus on four pillars of growth - People, Leadership, Strategy and Revenue. I love this corporate opportunity where I can use all my business and career coaching skills to bring about positive change on a larger scale.

So, if any of that resonates with you, let’s have a conversation?

What are you waiting for?
