Coaching and wellbeing for caring workforces
Plantfood Coaching provides inclusive, whole-person coaching for charities and mission-led organisations.
We understand the pressures of caring roles, lived experience, burnout, conflict and systematic barriers where responsibility is high, resources are stretched and the emotional load is often invisible.
We help people to build resilience, influence and connection, so both individuals and organisations can thrive while doing good work.
Who is this for?
We work with individuals at every level within caring workforces, including:
- Emerging and established leaders navigating complex workplaces
- Individuals carrying heavy emotional responsibility
- Teams working under pressure, change or with limited resources
If your people are experiencing stretched capacity, poor resilience, reduced confidence or strained relationships, our work is designed with them in mind.
What we do
Our mission is simple:
To support charities and mission-led organisations with whole-person coaching and wellbeing support that strengthens people, teams and leaders working in complex, high-pressure environments.
We provide:
- Individual coaching
- Group and team coaching
- Leadership development and emotional intelligence training
- Wellbeing talks, workshops and programmes
Our work supports people to stay well, effective and connected, without asking them to push harder or disconnect from who they are.
Our coaching approach
We understand that people within caring workforces often carry the weight of burnout, lived experience, limited resources and the frustration of only being able to help so much. This emotional load can affect confidence, influence, relationships and wellbeing.
Our inclusive, holistic approach is shaped specifically for caring work.
We help people to:
- Navigate tension and misunderstandings with colleagues
- Work within systems that may feel unfair, while understanding what they can and can’t change
- Strengthen relationships in teams that feel worn-down or stuck in survival mode
- Identify what really matters when pulled in multiple directions
- Find ways of working that feel energising and focussed, rather than depleting
- Feel safe being their full selves at work, without lived experience holding them back
Our work integrates trauma-informed coaching, emotional intelligence, somatic awareness, wellbeing, nutrition, movement and breath.
Why choose Plantfood?
Plantfood Coaching exists because generic wellbeing and leadership models often miss the realities of caring work.
What makes us different
- Inclusive by design – multiple frameworks and delivery options to meet different needs, nervous systems and energy levels
- Holistic and trauma-informed – working with the whole person, not just performance
- Rooted in lived experience – shaped by real experience of burnout, chronic stress and recovery
- Focused on sustainability – supporting person-centred, effective ways of working that can be maintained
Our frameworks
We offer four distinct coaching frameworks, designed to respect the realities of people’s lives and work
- Repotted for high-capacity, quietly overextended women
- Sunflower for emerging leaders and senior leaders
- Wildflowers for non-linear talent and original thinkers who don’t always fit the traditional mold
- Cactus for neurodiverse or high-resilience individuals shaped by lived experience within challenging environments
