What We Do

We are two women who have come together because of a desire to help women to grow and push beyond their comfort zones in their careers.

We are Urvina Shah & Anjali Gudhka, your Career Transformation Coaches.

We had been in our respective careers (Urvina in the NHS and Anjali in the Corporate Sector) for a long time and could do the job with our eyes closed. We kept our heads down and got on with it waiting to be recognized by managers and peers instead of putting ourselves forward for projects or new initiatives.

At times, we even felt our work didn’t matter to those in authority and as a result we didn’t speak up in meetings. We went un-noticed by everyone around us and it perpetuated the feeling of not being valued.

I, Urvina, also felt that that was all I knew especially as I had been doing the role for a while. This led to lack of confidence in upskilling or learning new technologies, and even applying for other roles.

And the last straw was when my role was restructured and it prompted me to reconsider my career priorities using coaching tools at my disposal from my 15 years experience of career development for students and staff. I decided to turn my career around and embarked on a new career path at the age of 50 (call it mid-life crisis!).

I, Anjali, finally had enough of not getting the promotion that I wanted, and gave myself a year to quit my job and find another role. To help myself, I invested in training to become an executive coach so that I could figure out what my next move would be. In the process, my mindset around my career path shifted and doors that were previously closed started opening up for me and I got my promotion within that 1 year and I also gained a new purpose in my life – to work with others in similar situation to me.

We spend 80% of our time working. So it makes sense that we should enjoy what we do and for our contributions to be recognized and valued. And yet for many women this is far from the reality.

Our different backgrounds and stories led us to form UKAN Coaching where we focus on aligning women to careers they want and transforming their careers from stagnation to ascension.

Design Your Own Career Path

We work with you step by step to help you delve deeper into your mind and get clarity on what you really want in your career, identify what the gap is and how to align that vision with what is important for you. Our approach is personalized to you and designed to reduce any overwhelm or confusion you feel so that you can focus on navigating your career.

Be Recognized and Valued

When your career has stagnated, one of the impacts is undervaluing your own capabilities and skills. And the result is a lack of belief in yourself and lower confidence. A vicious cycle that can spiral out of control. Using our Confidence B.O.O.S.T Toolkit, we teach you techniques to strengthen your confidence and evaluate your capabilities and skills so that you are recognized and valued appropriately.

Step Out of Your Comfort Zone With Confidence and Ease

The hardest part after making a decision is taking action. We work with you to unshackle you from the beliefs and fears holding you back so that you can step forward with confidence and ease. We partner with you to provide you the support and accountability to ensure you keep on track.
