Jessica Patel is a transformational coach and former financial services professional with over 15 years of experience in financial crime risk and compliance across London and Dubai. She has extensive operational experience in anti-money laundering, risk management, and regulatory compliance across high street banks, investment banks, and global financial institutions.

‍

After building a successful career in financial crime, Jessica experienced a profound personal transformation following a 28-day Ayurvedic Panchakarma retreat in Sri Lanka. This pivotal experience led her to transition from corporate finance to coaching, where she now helps professionals navigate career transitions, overcome self-limiting beliefs, and align their work with their authentic selves.

‍

As a coach, Jessica specializes in supporting mid-career professionals who have outgrown their current paths but feel trapped by sunk costs, external expectations, or fear of the unknown. Drawing from her own experience of walking away from 15 years of expertise to start over in a new country with no plan, she brings both empathy and practical insight to career reinvention, mindset transformation, and building the courage to choose fulfillment over familiarity.

Based in Dubai, Jessica works with clients across the Middle East and internationally, combining her understanding of high-pressure corporate environments with holistic wellness practices and strategic career coaching.
