I've Been There
For years, I held it all together — senior HR roles, NHS leadership, supporting everyone else. I looked fine. I said I was fine - I was even good at convincing myself at times!
But underneath the smiles? I was often very anxious; I didn't know how to put myself first — didn't even know I could.
I reached a bit of rock bottom. My body stopped because I wouldn't.
That's when I trained as a coach and asked: What do I actually want now?
And now - over 30 years in leadership development and coaching; I've worked with hundreds of women at crossroads. I know just how deep these patterns run.
And I also know they can shift — because I'm still shifting myself.
I'm not pretending to have it all figured out
