I’m Ellen Donnelly, strategic business coach for entrepreneurs and founder of The Ask 

I help clients become the leader their vision demands. 

As a coach for ambitious entrepreneurs, I’m all about asking the right questions to get you unstuck and moving forward. I've helped hundreds of business owners clarify their vision, challenge their assumptions, and build the self-trust needed to take bold action.

With over a decade working in startup talent and business coaching, I've got the toolkit to help you transform challenges into opportunities. 

Whether you're facing a pivotal decision, preparing for a significant leap, or ready to take massive action towards your vision, I'm here to help you cut through the noise and gain the clarity you need for what’s next. 

Some essential bits about working together…

  • I’m located in sometimes-sunny London, UK. I do offer in-person coaching in London, but otherwise collaborate with clients all over the world online.

  • Absolutely! Zoom is our connector anywhere across the globe. My clients are from the UK, Europe, US, Nicaragua, Dubai, Australia, and more!

  • I work best with established entrepreneurs and founders who've got fire in their belly and big ambitions to match. You’ve already tasted some success but are hungry for more, and you’re not necessarily shy about stepping forward as a thought leader and face of your brand.  

    Whether you're running a one person business or steering a larger ship, what matters is your drive to make a real impact. I'm not fussed about your particular industry—I've worked with creative independents, tech innovators, and everything in between. You bring the domain knowledge and I bring the toolkit for clarity, and momentum.

  • Yes! I love speaking on professional development topics including founder-led brand building, confidence, leading yourself and more. Please get in touch via the form above so we can jump on a call to make a plan!

  • If you’re around London or were in my brief stint in Chicago… let’s just say it’s possible!
