Lucy Everett

Mindset Coach for the Creative Industries - Create. Evolve. Create.

About

As a mindset coach, I work with people who sense there's more - more clarity, more confidence, more alignment between who they are and how they're living and working. Coaching isn't only for moments of crisis. It's for anyone ready to shift their thinking and create meaningful change.

Whether you're navigating a transition, leading through complexity, or simply ready to build on what you've already created - this is a space for honest, focused work on what matters most to you.

With a rich background in the creative industries as a studio owner, employer and agent across New Zealand and the UK, I bring real understanding of the creative world to every conversation. Trained at the renowned Jay Shetty Certification School in the US, I work with designers, creatives, creative leaders and individuals at all stages - online and in person, in New Zealand and globally.

If you're ready to step into a more empowered version of yourself, book a free 45 minute discovery call or contact me on [email protected] to chat.

Testimonials

"Thank you so much for the consistent support and guidance you gave me to help me understand how I operate as a creative. Your considered perspectives and thoughtful questions have unlocked so many insights and opportunities for me, enabling me to feel fulfilled and energised in my work. You are so empathetic – I feel truly seen and heard. Your energy and experience makes you so easy to talk to, not to mention a delight to have a good laugh with! Looking forward to our next chats"

- Mark, New Zealand

"Even through a screen and from a far away country, you can feel Lucy's beautiful energy. She has a goodness and a strength that makes you feel safe. It was such a treat for me, knowing that she was on my side, and only had my best interests and personal growth at heart. We worked hard but she was always kind and supportive. I was exhausted after each session because Lucy wouldn't let me settle in a comfortable place until we had worked through barriers or agreed on next steps. In this way I made amazing progress over 8 weeks. She let me talk and listened attentively. And she taught me to be disciplined and helped me uncover the behaviors that were holding me back.
I still have work to do, but I ended the year feeling ten times stronger and more resilient than before. I have a clear idea of how I want my year to go next year, my mindset has stabilised and I have my confidence back.
The best part is I know she will always be there if I need her".
Thank you Lucy!

- Robyn, Australia

"As a young business owner looking to work on my greatest asset – myself – I started coaching with Lucy at a turbulent yet exciting time in my career. Recently stepping into the terrifying world of self-employment, I found myself restricted by my own self-limiting beliefs and confidence. Lucy’s coaching style is remarkably empowering, guiding conversations, asking impactful (sometimes challenging) questions that left me genuinely stunned at her ability to collaborate with me and figure out the core of what was holding me back and analyse it together under a microscope – like scientists!"

- Brya, UK

"Working with Lucy has been amazing to help me take a step back from the mess of life, tap into what I truly desire, and piece together a roadmap to get there. She's so calm, supportive and deeply invested in helping you get clarity. Highly recommend."

- Bel, France

"I'm so grateful for Lucy. She's the perfect blend of coach, therapist, and wise friend, and I wish I could gift her to everyone I love. When I met her I was fried, uninspired, and stuck. I didn't realise how much I was getting in my own way. Now I have greater clarity and energy, and I'm free of some warped narratives I'd been carrying. I look forward to our monthly sessions as gentle nudges in the right direction"

- India, New Zealand

"I met Lucy when I was at a real low point... I felt stuck, hurt, burned out, and without much energy to pull myself out of that hole. Lucy helped me gently to get "untangled", always focusing on what I needed (and could handle) during each session. Slowly and steadily Lucy guided me in a way that felt safe and supportive. Through this process, I began to rediscover what makes me, me, and what I need to do to live and work in a way that actually feels right for me. When we started, I said I was looking for clarity and confidence.

Thanks to Lucy, I feel I have both now. I know what I need, and I feel empowered to take the steps to get there.

A heartfelt thank you, Lucy,  – I truly couldn’t have done this without you!"

- Nadja, Germany

"I love how present Lucy is and how she made me feel heard. Lucy has an authentic energy and curiosity. I felt comfortable and safe talking to her, I loved my sessions. She is a great partner in crime to challenge your brain. She helped me gain awareness about my thoughts, beliefs, and boundaries. I felt very comfortable talking to her; she is by your side through the journey of your self-discovery and the achievement of your goals."

- Nina, USA

Help is not always the easiest thing to ask for, and being a man, it’s annoyingly one of the stereotypical traits of my gender that I did, in fact, inherit. Luckily, I didn’t really have to ask for it. Lucy offered.

I had been working with Lucy as my agent for some time, and she recognised that I was struggling — both with my job and with the changes the market was facing.

Being introspective about yourself, your life, your career, and how they all fit together is hard. Attempting to unpick the strands of your life that need attention is even harder. It’s not just about understanding what isn’t working for you; it’s about figuring out where to look next, what opportunities are worth pursuing, and whether what you think you want is actually the right fit for you at all.

This is where Lucy was a godsend.

She broke those overwhelming questions down into manageable goals and was genuinely honest about where I might be going wrong — something that’s both rare and incredibly valuable.

I would recommend sessions with Lucy to anyone who has found themselves standing at a crossroads that suddenly feels like eight different pathways, each overgrown or obscured by the fog of an ever-changing environment, indecision, self-doubt, or, in my case, laziness.

I may still have a long way to go, but now I know the direction I’m heading in, and the steps I need to take to get there.

- Josh, New Zealand

"I believe with all my being that remembering who I am and the sense of fearlessness that I had forgotten how to access has only returned because of Lucy’s rich life and successful professional experience in guiding and deeply caring for those of us fortunate enough to meet her."

- Debbie, New Zealand
