Women in Leadership
I work with women to firstly ‘press the pause button’ and discover what it is THEY really want – for themselves, their lives and their careers.
Too often we can end up on ‘progression auto pilot’ and become derailed by challenges along the way.
We can lose perspective of our abilities and our value, and how best to balance life, work, and family. We become a series of roles, and struggle to attend to our needs.
I challenge the concept of over-adaptation and conformity as a pathway to success, and work to uncover individuality and authenticity as the platform for empowerment and change.
Regardless of what you do, it is discovering who you are that helps you reconnect with yourself, relieve the burden, prioritise you, and restore vitality in your life, relationships and work.
"the blend of business coaching and therapy is a brilliant proposition for busy leaders
(dare I say, especially women) who are juggling the heavy load of careers, relationships and family-life."

Gender Bias and Stereotyping
Women often encounter bias and stereotypes that can undermine their authority and leadership capabilities.
Lack of Representation
Many industries and organisations have a significant gender imbalance in leadership roles, which can lead to a lack of female role models and mentors for aspiring women leaders.
Women's Health & Key Life Stages
Women at work often face unique challenges related to women's health and key life stages: Pregnancy, becoming a parent, maternity, perimenopause, menopause, chronic conditions such as endometriosis, PCOS, adenomyosis
Work-Life Balance
Balancing leadership roles with life and family responsibilities can be challenging. The expectation to do it all can lead to overwhelm, and burnout.
Stress, perfectionism and high-functioning anxiety can become standard practice
Imposter Syndrome
Many women in leadership positions experience imposter syndrome, doubting their own competence and feeling like they don't belong in their roles, even when they are highly qualified.
