Welcome
I help brilliant, high-performing women understand the deeper emotional patterns driving their overwhelm, so they can finally live with steadiness, clarity and self worth, rather than survival.
You’ve achieved so much.
So why does it still feel like everything could break you?
You’re brilliant.
High-performing.
The woman everyone trusts to hold it all.
But behind the competence and the calm, there’s a tightness you can’t shift.
A quiet dread you can’t name.
A sense that one more small thing might tip everything over the edge.
You’re not dramatic.
You’re not failing.
Your body is telling the truth your mind has been trained to override.
And that truth is this:
Success built on survival eventually cracks.
You Became Exceptional Because Life Demanded It.
Not Because It Felt Safe.
Your Strength Has a Backstory
You grew up becoming the steady one.
The responsible one.
The emotional container in a family that couldn’t hold you back.
You learned early that love had conditions.
That safety came from competence.
That your needs were negotiable, but everyone else’s were not.
So you became impressive as a coping strategy.
And now you’re a woman who runs the business, holds the family, fixes the crises, keeps the peace — while your own inner world quietly fractures under the weight of being the one who never needed anything.
This isn’t weakness.
This is capacity.
And you’ve reached yours.
What You’re Living Isn’t Burnout — It’s the Aftermath of a Lifetime of Over-Functioning.
On paper, your life looks enviable.
Inside, there’s a knot you can’t untangle.
You’re exhausted from holding everything together.
Managing emotions that aren’t yours.
Over-performing at work and under-feeling at home.
Saying “I’m fine” while your system screams otherwise.
Sometimes it’s a message from your mother.
Sometimes it’s a broken dishwasher.
Sometimes it’s nothing at all.
And suddenly the façade cracks.
Not because you’re unstable — but because you’ve been stable for everyone else for far too long.
You’re Not Falling Apart. You’re Outgrowing the Woman You Had to Be.
Everything you do today — the perfectionism, the competence, the emotional labour, the over-achieving — began as protection.
You didn’t get here in spite of your past.
You got here because of how you learned to survive it.
But survival isn’t the same thing as safety.
And the strategies that kept you afloat then are suffocating you now.
This is where repair begins.
Not by fixing what’s broken,
but by tending to what was never tended to.
My Work Is For The Woman Who’s Always Been the Strong One
The woman who knows exactly what everyone else needs —but can’t answer the simplest question:
What do you need?
The woman who’s done therapy, read the books, listened to the podcasts —and still ends up in the same loops.
The woman who can coach others out of their spirals, but feels like hers are made of steel.
The woman whose body is burned out from running a lifetime of emotional marathons no one else saw.
If this is you, you’re in the right place.
What’s Really Going On Isn’t Burnout — It’s Unmothered Parts Running the Show
Not “mother wound” in the hashtag sense.
But the quiet ache of never having been soothed, seen, or supported in the ways that teach a child how to feel safe.
When a woman wasn’t mothered with consistency and care, she grows into an adult who:
Over-functions at work
Under-functions at home
Carries emotional weight for everyone
Confuses peace with danger
Earns her worth
Fears rest
Breaks over small things
Apologises for existing
Thrives in crisis
Panics in stillness
Loses herself in being needed
Feels alone in every room
Not because she’s broken —but because she wasn’t shown another way.
My work is where you learn it.
Introducing 'The Unfolding'
Mother Yourself. Rewire Your Patterns. Reclaim Your Life.
The Unfolding™ is my high-touch, trauma-informed coaching framework for women who had to hold everything together — and are ready to finally stop holding it alone.
This isn’t mindset work.
This is repatterning work — the kind that changes your body, your emotional world, your relationships, and the way you lead your life.
We work in four phases, none of them linear, all of them profound.
Phase 1 — Stabilise and Befriend the Body
We build nervous system capacity so you can:
Feel safe resting
Respond instead of reacting
Set boundaries without panic
Soften the constant internal pressure
You’ll learn portable, trauma-sensitive regulation tools you can use in meetings, at home, in the car, or in the loos at work.
Phase 2 — Meet the Parts and Rewire the Inner Mother
We meet the versions of you that were forced to grow up too soon:
The hyper-competent one
The critic
The pleaser
The girl who coped alone
Not to analyse them, but to understand their positive intent.
Then we build the inner mother you never had — the voice that soothes, steadies, protects, and allows you to finally rest.
Phase 3 — Repattern the Behaviour
You practise:
Saying no without guilt
Doing “good enough” instead of perfect
Reclaiming time
Decompressing your calendar
Letting go of proving
Redefining success so it nourishes rather than empties you
This is where your life starts to feel like yours again.
Phase 4 — Integrate, Lead, and Leave a Legacy
You build your I Am Enough blueprint:
How you work
How you rest
How you relate
How you mother yourself
How you interrupt generational patterns without burning out
This is where the woman behind the mask finally steps forward.
What It Looks Like On the Other Side
Your body softens.
Your mind quietens.
Your relationships recalibrate.
Your boundaries settle into place.
Your ambition stays, but the compulsion leaves.
You stop breaking over small things.
You feel safe inside your own skin.
You mother yourself with the love and steadiness you never received.
And for the first time, you’re not just holding your life together — you’re actually living it.
If Something in You Whispered “This Is Me,” That’s Enough to Begin
You don’t have to collapse to start.
You don’t have to justify your pain.
You don’t have to keep carrying this alone.
You’ve been the strong one long enough.

Support for Teens Who Feel Everything and Don’t Know Where to Put It
You’re the one who seems fine.
You go to school. You show up. You get things done.
But inside, it feels like your brain won’t switch off — and no one really gets it.
You’re tired of talking when it doesn’t help.
Tired of holding things in because you don’t want to upset anyone.
Tired of not knowing why you feel the way you do.
This isn’t therapy.
And it’s not a place where you have to perform feelings to get help.
This is a space that reads between the lines.
That pays attention to the part of you that’s holding it all in.
That lets you move at your pace — with someone who isn’t trying to fix, pressure, or parent you.
You don’t need to figure everything out.
You just need somewhere that gets how much you’re holding.
And if your parent or carer is in this space too — that’s intentional. My work supports both teens and adults, because emotional recovery is relational.
Supporting high-performing women to lead their lives from regulation, not reactivity — with clarity, calm and authentic self-worth.
