About Me

Hello!  I’m Jackie Poynton, owner of Blackbird Coaching and my mission as a Coach is to empower women to thrive at work.


Before setting up Blackbird Coaching, I spent 15 years coaching and training leaders and managers as an HR and Learning & Development professional in the corporate world and I'm a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. 


I’m a music and travel loving mum to a little ball of dynamite and I also love a good puzzle book (not sorry)! 


I have a zero judgement approach and I will support you to overcome the self-doubt, limiting beliefs and overwhelm that are holding you back in your career.

What's the Blackbird About?

I took inspiration from The Beatles’ song 'Blackbird' when deciding what to call my coaching practice. There’s a fab lyric:


“Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly, all your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise”. 


This really resonated with me and my mission to support other motivated women to thrive and hey presto Blackbird Coaching was born!


Now I'm here to provide coaching support to women who are ready for their moment to arise!
