Reclaim your power. Transform your leadership.
Your leadership is only as powerful as you are
Most leadership development tells you to add more - more skills, more confidence, more tactics.
I start somewhere different: what's in the way?
Because the power isn't missing. It's been diverted - into the strategies that once helped you survive. People-pleasing. Overgiving. Shrinking. Self-doubt. Isolation.
These aren't flaws. They're brilliant adaptations. But they're costing you your leadership.
Through coaching, retreats and programmes, I help women reclaim their power and lead fully - at work, at home, and in the world.
The POWERFUL™ Framework
The POWERFUL™ framework maps the eight patterns of giving our power away and our path to reclaim it.
P — People pleasing → Authenticity
People pleasing, managing reactions → Self-trust and true expression
O — Overgiving → Sovereignty
Saying yes when you mean no → Boundaries and choice
W — Worthlessness → Innate worth
Imposter syndrome, playing small → Knowing your value and taking up space
E — Emotional Suppression → Embodiment
Limited emotional range and disconnection from body → Full emotional spectrum and somatic wisdom
R — Rigidity → Courage
Perfectionism and fear of failure → Creativity and experimentation
F — Fragmentation → Integrity
Living out of alignment → Wholeness and coherence
U — Unclaimed Desire → Permission
Suppressing your wants and feeling undeserving → Claiming what you want without shame
L — Lone-Wolf → Connection
Hyper-independence and isolation → Interdependence and collective power

Organizational Partnerships
I work with a small number of organizations on leadership development, culture, and systemic change. Current and past clients include Apple, Google, LinkedIn, Monzo, The Guardian, and many more.
ABOUT ME
I've spent 15 years helping women become powerful.
I've worked with leaders at Apple, Google, LinkedIn, Nike, Monzo and many more. I've spoken at TEDx and been featured in The Guardian and the BBC.
Over that time, I began to see the same pattern everywhere: women who were brilliant, capable, carrying enormous responsibility — giving their power away in small, invisible ways.
That's what I help women reclaim.
I believe women in their full power are the greatest force for change we have.
Organisations I’ve worked with
WHY THIS MATTERS
When women hold power, everyone benefits. This isn't about women vs men. It's about what becomes possible when power is shared more broadly.
Women reinvest 90% of their income into families and communities.
1
Women-led startups generate 78 cents per dollar invested.
2
Countries with more women in parliament have lower levels of corruption.
3
When women control income, more goes to children's health, nutrition, and education.
4
Peace agreements are 35% more likely to last when women are involved.
5
“Power, properly understood, is the ability to achieve purpose.”
— Martin Luther King Jr
