You’ve built the career. Now build the life.
Executive coaching for leaders who want to get recognised, get promoted, and lead with real impact, without giving their whole self to work.
Former KPMG Partner · 20+ years in Big 4 consulting
You’re working harder than most people around you, and still feel like you’re only just keeping up.
Doing two jobs at once
You were promoted to lead, but you’re still doing all the doing as well. With days full of meetings, your work happens in the gaps: evenings, weekends, the time that was meant to be yours.
It never quite switches off
You delegate, but the worry stays with you. It’s left your desk, but it hasn’t left your head, which is why you’re still thinking about it at 11pm.
You’ve tried to fix it yourself
The apps, the earlier alarm, the productivity systems. They work for a fortnight, then a hard week hits and they’re gone. You’ve started to wonder if the problem is you.
This was never a discipline problem. You’ve been handed the wrong roadmap.
You’ve been treating a leadership and identity shift as though it were a time-management problem, and no app, no planner, no 5am alarm was ever going to solve it. Lead differently, and your career won’t suffer for it. That turns out to be a story too.
Hi, I’m Christine
I spent over 20 years in Big 4 consulting, including 7 years as a Partner at KPMG. I believed success came from hard work, full stop. So I worked long hours, said yes to everything, and made myself as helpful as I could possibly be.
It came at a cost. A health scare became my wake-up call. I never wanted to feel like I was sacrificing my life for my job again.

The Leadership Reset
A 12-week, one-to-one coaching programme for professionals who want to succeed in leadership, and have a life. We work with the beliefs underneath the behaviour, so the changes hold without a constant reliance on willpower.
We name the real pattern
Not your calendar. The stories running underneath it. The beliefs about worth, boundaries and perfectionism that made you successful, and are now keeping you stuck.
We rebuild how you lead
Six fortnightly one-to-one calls, built entirely around your role, your team and your version of the pattern, with messaging support for the moments in between.
The change actually holds
You lead from judgement rather than reaction, develop your team instead of absorbing their work, and get your evenings, your headspace and yourself back.
Let’s make sure this is right for you
Coaching this personal only works when it’s a genuine fit. So here’s the truth in both directions.
This is for you if…
- You’re working harder than almost everyone around you and still feel like you’re only just keeping up.
- You’ve tried the apps, the books and the early starts, and they hold for a fortnight before a busy week undoes them.
- You want to keep your ambition fully intact, and lead at this level without it costing you everything else.
- You’re willing to look honestly at the habits underneath the overwork, even the ones that feel like just who you are.
This probably isn’t for you if…
- You’re after a quick time-management hack or another productivity system to white-knuckle. We work a layer beneath that, and you’ve likely tried the rest already.
- You want someone to tell you the answer is to care less or aim lower.
- You’re not in a season where you can give six fortnightly calls some genuine attention.
- You’d rather the problem turned out to be everyone else. Some of this asks you to look at your own part, gently but squarely.
What changes for real people
My team love the new system we put in place. It’s changed the way we work, and they’re no longer waiting around for my review.
I don’t think I would have got my promotion this year without your guidance.
I’ve worked this way for so long I didn’t believe there was another way that would work for me and my job. I think you might have just changed my life.
What could change in 12 weeks, if you finally had the space to lead well?
