Curia Regis
Talk through anything with someone who’s been there
Curgia Regis (Latin for "King’s Council") is a one-to-one, informal advisory chat service designed for people who want to think out loud, gain perspective, or tap into decades of experience without signing up for a formal coaching programme or going through a drawn-out process.
Inspired by the idea of royal advisors - trusted, discreet, wise, and focused. This service offers you space to reflect, regroup, or reframe whatever’s on your mind. You stay in control. You set the agenda. You use it how you want.
How It’s Different from Coaching or Mentoring
Unlike coaching, Curgia Regis doesn’t follow a structured process or framework. There's no performance plan, action list, or accountability check-in unless you want one. And unlike mentoring, there’s no assumed hierarchy or long-term relationship.
This is a conversation between equals, shaped by your needs in the moment. You won’t be nudged, judged, or 'developed’, just listened to, engaged with, and offered honest reflections rooted in deep life and work experience.
It’s not about fixing you. It’s about hearing you with wisdom, discretion, and zero agenda.
