Coaching, training and community

for women and values-driven teams.

Cahla is a coaching-first leadership company that helps women to build their authentic executive presence and lead with conviction. Through coaching programmes, training courses, and community, we support women to shift culture from the inside out.

The Cahla Story

For years, at Beth O’Neill Coaching, we've supported female leaders and teams, and we've consistently found that most women are held back not by their abilities, but by a lack of confidence and practice opportunities in a supportive network. Our training courses have helped women overcome these challenges since 2022.

Summer 2025 marks the launch of Cahla, our company re-brand created to serve the modern female leader. We've integrated our deep coaching methodology with powerful practices for authentic executive presence and a vibrant community. At Cahla, we are more than just a coaching provider; we are a new way to lead with purpose, presence, and power.

Meet the Founder

Beth O’Neill is the heart behind Cahla. Born in Yorkshire as a vicar’s daughter, Beth found her voice early—speaking and leading with a presence that carried both strength and soul.

But life, as it often does, brought challenges that shook her self-belief and quieted that voice. It wasn’t until a pivotal moment that she felt a deep, quiet call to rise again—to trust her voice, values, and purpose.

That call led her on a journey of growth— through different forms of therapy, personal development, health, coaching, and community.

With over 15 years of experience in leadership, events management, and coaching, Beth brings a modern and values-led approach to leadership - one that is grounded in potential, presence, and quiet power.

Living in London with her husband and toddler, Beth draws inspiration from her love of the ocean, her experience as co-founder of the luxury beauty studio SMUK London and as a dancer. She weaves together leadership, coaching, motherhood, and creativity to help women lead boldly and live fully, with beauty, grace and grit.

At Cahla, Beth is building more than a brand—she’s building a movement. One that reminds women that leadership can be beautifully human and boldly effective.

WOMEN IN Leadership. Redefined.

Cahla blends ICF-inspired coaching, practical leadership development, and values-led community into one integrated experience. Unlike conventional leadership courses, we prioritise presence over performance, helping women to lead with confidence, clarity and conviction.

Our work is deeply practical, quietly powerful, and designed to create real, lasting change, from the inside out.
