radical imagination coaching

I help people reclaim their imagination and bring their radical visions into the world

Hi, Iā€™m Isles! Human, coach, facilitator, community builder, writer, artist.

I help people reclaim their voice and reimagine the worlds they move through, so they can bring their visions into reality and create new futures.

Everything I offer is in service of our creative empowerment and collective liberation. I hold spaces and conversations that honour our innate creativity whilst prioritising and uplifting diverse bodies and minds.

My work is rooted in liberation practice; centering collective care, shared power and imagination as a form of resistance. I believe in the agency of the individual and collective to create change, whilst recognising the constraints and harms of the systems we live within.

I do not offer my work from the position of expert, but as someone with lived experiences and particular insights that can serve as tools, invitations or mirrors for others to draw from. I also recognise this work is not mine alone, but a contribution to a wider movement of collective re-imagining that I am deeply grateful to be a part of.

  • A woman outdoors with long hair and a pink flower in her hair, smiling.

    "Isles brings a rare blend of body-based wisdom and strategic clarity helping me tune into somatic cues, get words down on paper, and move through the transition between my last business and whatever comes next"

    Georgie (she/her) - conversation coach, facilitator, researcher & designer

  • A young man with blonde hair, glasses, and a checkered shirt smiling in front of a wooden panel background.

    ā€œWith Isles, I was able to turn a vague longing into clarity and direction. I felt heard and understood as we unpacked my complex relationship with creativity and rediscovered my dream of becoming a writerā€

    Phineas (he/they)

  • Abstract painting with a black cactus-shaped figure inside a square frame decorated with white dots, set against a multicolored background.

    ā€œThe writing is finally coming more easily since our session - the prompts make it super accessible. I can sense longevity in my creative work whereas I never felt that before!"

    Skye - script writer, storyteller

  • A woman with long dark hair and glasses taking a selfie indoors, with a window and wooden wall in the background.

    ā€œIsles intuitively meets me where I'm at - within my capacity and, with my neurodivergence. My motivation has grown but I also feel validated and more compassionate towards how I show up in the world"

    Ali (she/her) - Facilitator, learning designer, writer, researcher

  • ā€œWorking with Isles was a highlight of my week! They are a sensitive listener with a fresh perspective. My thinking was reframed constructively, helping me to see how I could move ahead with my workshops"

    Rach (she/they) - Writer, facilitator

  • A person wearing a black jacket, white shirt, black wide-leg pants, and sneakers, sitting on a red bench inside a bus stop at night. The person is holding a phone and is partially shadowed. Behind them is a street view with a lit sign reading 'CORAL' and a building with yellow and brick exteriors.

    ā€œThey welcomed my half-formed ideas and hidden doubts with care and presence. Our session helped me trust my process, rather than rushing toward output. What Isles offers is quietly radical and deeply neededā€
