Empowering new leaders to thrive (not just survive) in their first year of leadership

I'm a leadership coach who partners with organisations who are serious about retaining top talent, preventing burnout, and building a future-ready leadership pipeline.


HR Managers hire me to support their new leaders through the often-overlooked (but critical) transition into leadership, helping them silence self-doubt, overcome imposter syndrome, and stop playing small. Whilst building-up their skills in managing teams, learning how to delegate and deal with difficult conversations.


The result? Leaders who show up with clarity, courage, and confidence ready to make a real impact!

How can I help?

The transition into leadership is one of the most vulnerable (and make-or-break) moments in a professional’s career.

Without the right support, even your most capable new leaders start to second-guess themselves, the pressure builds, and if not addressed, can become overwhelming leading to burn-out.

Bring me in before this happens.

I help leaders to thrive (not just survive), preventing unnecessary burnout, under-performance and at worst- resignations.

I work with newly promoted leaders to build their confidence from the inside out.

As a leadership development specialist, I can create a tailored-program developing the skills needed to be strengthened such as:

  • Delegating and time-management strategies

  • Dealing with difficult conversations and conflict

  • Managing teams and boosting team morale

  • Improving communication by understanding personality types

  • Building self confidence and a resilient mindset

Together with the client, I support the leader to develop a resilient mindset, improve their communication skills, and emotional intelligence to thrive in leadership - without the burnout, overwhelm, or imposter syndrome.

After working together, here are some of the changes you will see in your staff:

⁠They become the leader others want to follow

They learn how to lead authentically. They delegate with confidence, motivate their team, and have the tough conversations with clarity and care. They are no longer doing it all, they're empowering others to step up.

They begin to trust themselves fully

Your new manager stops overthinking. They speak up, not because they're 100% sure they're right, but because they know their voice matters. They make decisions faster, learn how to manage up and down, no more imposter syndrome running the show.

⁠They feel free again (and so do you)

With the right mindset, systems, and support, they’re no longer in survival mode. Your manager has more resilience, less stress, and the energy to focus on the big picture… including their wellbeing. They can finally breathe again (and so can you).
