THE

Clear Thinking

PARTNERSHIP

After 19 wonderful years working together as The Clear Thinking Partnership, 2026 opens a new chapter.
 

Kate is now working as Interval Thinking, while Bev continues with Clear Thinking. We remain close friends and collaborators, proud of the work we’ve built together – and that foundation only strengthens what comes next.

This shift gives us both more flexibility while keeping the door open to future collaborations. Working with one or both of us is still very much an option.

When you’re navigating complex decisions, leading through uncertainty, or breaking through to your next level of performance, clarity isn’t optional – it’s essential.

The promise is simple: to create the conditions for your best thinking. To cut through distraction and busyness, so you can think clearly and act with confidence.

Working with me

I coach, facilitate and design experiences – both in-person and online – that help leaders and teams think more clearly about what matters most.

I create the conditions for good thinking. The kind of thinking that helps you find answers to tough questions, identify what’s holding you back, and trust your own insight and the wisdom already in the room.

My work is less about content, more about insight. I draw out what’s already there – hiding in plain sight – helping you become more thoughtful, resourceful and creative, so you can handle whatever comes your way.

I understand pace. Coming from a retail background, I know what it feels like to operate at speed. Many of my clients do too – and that energy can be incredibly creative. But here’s the paradox: sometimes we need to work quickly to reach a point of stillness. To pause long enough to take in a different perspective. Because it’s only in that sense of ease – free from rushing and urgency – that we have the space for clear thinking.

I make you think. And I help you trust what emerges when you do.

the coaches council

I love to have inspiring conversations. It’s what I do.

And we all need somewhere to continue to develop our coaching capacity and capability, through live practice, ongoing reflective dialogue with each other, being challenged in a safe space, and sharing successes and failures, so that we can learn from both.

Join me at Coaches Council. An online peer supervision group for those who coach and are dedicated to serving their clients well.

Blackpool Transport
Fanatics

Clear Thinking gave us a powerful suite of tools specifically designed to fit our business. What I appreciate most about Clear Thinking is their ability to create development programmes which have enabled our Leadership Team to participate, learn and deliver their targets at a rapid pace. Our people are confident, our brand has grown, and we are delighting customers with our exciting new innovations and products. I am extremely proud to advocate that Clear Thinking and Blackpool Transport have a professional working relationship.

Jane Cole, Managing Director, Blackpool Transport Services

Clear Thinking have been able to quickly understand the operation, pace and the culture of our business in order to develop creative interventions that meet the needs of our ever-changing environment. At Fanatics in the UK we have worked together in many ways including 1:1 coaching, leadership and team development as well as tailored programmes for change management and inspiring good conversations, that have been delivered in house by our HR team or facilitated by Clear Thinking. They've role modelled an ability to create comfortable, calm, equal environments that inspire meaningful conversations, allow clear thinking, intent listening and where we can show up with our authentic whole selves.

CARDS FOR CLEAR THINKING

The Cards for Clear Thinking were born out of a desire to have something practical, tactile and flexible to support good conversations and great thinking.

They are a useful tool for quickly helping people explore their thinking by shifting perspective from a focus on doing to an understanding of how they are being.

That shift in perspective creates fresh thinking about what matters most to them and how to train their attention to notice when it’s naturally popping up in their world.

And because, “the mind works better in the presence of a question,” we can show you have to craft meaningful, generative questions inspired by each card in the deck. 

You can join a Card School session where we can show you more.
