re/write
London
I’m Monique Shaw, a career coach, writer, podcaster and brand expert who helps
people to rewrite their old stories to create careers, businesses and lives that
work. Our stories shape our lives - but we can rewrite them. I’ve rewritten my
own story many times to create a life that fits with the way I want to work and
live - I founded Re/Write to help you do the same! I started my career in the
arts and public sector before pivoting into the corporate world where I spent
over a decade shaping marketing, brand, sales and communication strategies. I
spent 8 of those years with a Big 4 firm working on rebrand projects, running
global campaigns, coaching pitch teams and leading a global sector brand &
marketing team. After becoming a parent, I craved a deeper sense of purpose in
my work and a different lifestyle. When I turned 40, I took the plunge and
rewrote my career story, launching Re/Write and bringing together my love of
people, words and self-development with the rigour of my global corporate
experience and training. My approach to career change is to work from the
inside-out. I don’t focus on job titles, industries or company names, instead I
help people to connect with who they are, what they need and how they want to
live. We build out from that foundation, right through to creating new habits
and shaping the story they tell the world. I’m a qualified Transformational
Coach with an accreditation in Group Coaching & Facilitation. I’m a lifelong
learner with a Fine Arts undergrad degree, a post-grad in Creative Writing and
professional Chartered Institute of Marketing qualifications in Marketing and
Digital Marketing. All of these qualifications - along with my professional and
personal experience - informs the work I do helping my clients to rewrite their
stories. I also work with a not-for-profit organisation, icanyoucantoo running
presentation skills and personal brand workshops for smart and ambitious kids
form disadvantaged backgrounds because they - like all of us - deserve to write
their own stories too. Originally from Australia, I live in London with my
husband, young son and 2 rescue pooches. I work with people from all over the
world and would love to help you rewrite your story, whatever it is and whatever
you want it to be. Curious? Let’s have a chat and explore what you need and how
I can help. Monique xx
