The Journey
How I rose up to become a leader in burnout management and psychological development.
I started in sport psychology, working with athletes under intense pressure to perform. What I quickly realised was that talent wasn’t the deciding factor—mindset, resilience, and the ability to manage setbacks made the difference.
Career Change
Both exciting and overwhelming, career change often comes with uncertainty, self-doubt, and the challenge of navigating a new direction while letting go of the familiar. Through coaching, individuals can clarify their values, identify transferable skills, and explore opportunities that align with their strengths and purpose.
Burnout
Burnout can silently undermine performance, motivation, and overall wellbeing, leaving individuals feeling exhausted, stuck, or disconnected from their work. Through coaching, I help people identify the underlying causes of burnout, develop strategies to manage stress, and rebuild energy and focus.
Leadership Development
Effective leadership goes beyond skills and experience—it requires self-awareness, resilience, and the ability to inspire and support others. Through coaching, I help leaders understand their strengths, uncover areas for growth, and develop strategies to lead with confidence and clarity.
Retirement Planning
Retirement is a major life transition that can bring both opportunity and uncertainty. Through coaching, I help individuals explore their identity, purpose, and wellbeing beyond work.
Industries
Finance and Legal
High expectations, long hours, and competitive environments can push professionals to the limits, often fuelling perfectionism and burnout. I help individuals and teams develop strategies to manage pressure, make clearer decisions under stress, and maintain wellbeing — ensuring performance is not only high but also sustainable.
Technology
In technology and corporate environments, high demands, constant change, and performance pressure can lead to stress, burnout, and reduced engagement. By focusing on mindset I help individuals and teams navigate change, improve collaboration, and achieve results while maintaining balance and long-term motivation.
Education
In educational settings, both students and teachers face unique pressures that can impact wellbeing and performance. I support children in developing resilience, managing stress, and building confidence, while helping teachers navigate workload, classroom challenges, and professional growth.
