Even the most capable leaders can get stuck in the undertow of the day-to-day. But when you’re the one everyone turns to, who has your back?
You're holding a lot. Leading with capability and care, but also navigating complexity that can't be delegated and making calls that carry real weight. You might be hitting goals, but you're not operating at the level you know you're capable of. You're stuck solving the same issues on repeat, second-guessing things you should feel clear on, or carrying strategic load that's starting to feel unsustainable. You don't need more advice, you need someone who can see what you can't, cut through the noise, and help you lead in a way that fits the scale of what you're building.
My Stelar approach doesn’t add more to your plate, but rather it helps you dial in, solve better problems at the right level, and make the few moves that shift everything.
Since 2010, I’ve been helping leaders across the globe transform how they think, lead, and create.
I have a knack for knowing when something’s not working, even when you can’t quite put your finger on it. It’s not about pushing harder or doing more—it’s about refocusing on what you’re built to do and doing it brilliantly.
I’m Kate Ruby Bradshaw.
Erica McCreedy - Chief Operating Officer; Attending COP and UN Strategic Discussions
“I have one on one coaching sessions with Kate twice a month, and they are absolutely vital. She has this ability to shift and weave however I need the support from her. She pushes me forward when I need it, and she steps back when I need some space."
Emma Sullings - National Charity Founder
“She has this incredible ability to have you see things in a new way. When I've got overwhelmed by issues within my organisation, being able to jump on a call with Kate and have her lift me out of the slosh and the muck has allowed me to move pieces of the puzzle which have then gone on to have a massive positive flow on effect for my organisation.”
Aubrey Taylor - Founder of Youth for Freedom
“Working with Kate has been the most expansive and immediately successful experience I’ve ever had. Nothing has impacted me at the level that working with Kate has.”
Three ways to work with me in 2026
1:1 Coaching
I work 1:1 with established business leaders who've built something successful but have hit a ceiling.
This is a close strategic partnership that addresses what's actually holding you back: the foundational issues, the leadership gaps, the bottleneck you've become.
Together, we build the clarity, structure, and capacity to lead at the level your business demands.

Karlie McKeand - Founder of ERT
"Not only did she help me see far beyond what I ever thought was possible, she also provided the plan and detailed pathways to make that vision a reality, which is rare to find. She pulled me out of my little box and helped me transition away from seeing clients in clinic, to a different business model which has given me more freedom in my week and done wonders for my nervous system. Kate’s coaching is powerful, no-nonsense, and direct, exactly what I needed to make these big shifts. I honestly couldn’t have done it without her guidance and clarity."
Amy McLean - Founder of Te Kainga Wahine
“Kate’s strategic mind combined with her intuitive ability to guide and challenge, has been transformational for me. I feel fully supported by her on every level—emotionally, mentally, and strategically—she’s truly in my corner.”
