In her words
I run a unit where the work does not pause for anyone's confidence crisis. Good with rota politics, being the youngest person promoted over people who trained you, and shift work with small children at home.
What she can help with
Path to Management
Positioning yourself as management material and earning the first people role.
First Hires & Managing a Team
Becoming someone's boss for the first time when you built the job yourself.
Boundary Setting
Saying no, protecting focus, and still being seen as a team player.
Burnout & Mental Load
Managing overload at work and the invisible load at home.
Work–Life Balance
Building sustainable rhythms without sacrificing ambition.

Fatima Al-Rashid
Executive chef · Three kitchens, 80 staff
Professional kitchens run on shouting and I refuse to. It took me years to prove that a calm pass is a faster pass. Ask me about brigade politics, hours that eat your life, and running a kitchen your way.
Deborah Osei
Team lead · Child protection
High-stakes work, chronic understaffing, and a duty of care that does not switch off at six. If you are burning out in a caring profession and feel guilty about saying so, start here.

Executive coach · Former COO
Twenty years operating, six coaching. I am the person to talk to when you cannot tell whether the problem is the job, the company, or that you have outgrown both.
