About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

This is not a productivity seminar.
Not a mindset pep talk.
And definitely not a lecture on work-life balance.

This is a real, honest conversation about something most high-achieving women never talk about — the emotional weight of success… and the quiet, creeping sense that “this still isn’t it.”

Whether you’re running a business, leading a team, or simply keeping all the plates spinning — this masterclass will help you understand why external success doesn’t always translate into internal peace, and what to do when your life looks good but doesn’t feel good.


In this masterclass, you’ll explore:

  • The relationship between trauma and high achievement
  • Why burnout, flatness, or emotional numbness often hit women after they’ve “made it”
  • The unconscious patterns that keep you overgiving, overworking, and under-feeling
  • Why conventional personal development isn’t solving this (and what will)
  • How to reconnect with your deeper self — without blowing up your life


This is for you if:

  • You’re a high-functioning, successful woman… who secretly feels disconnected, stuck or flat
  • You’ve outgrown surface-level self-help and want something deeper, truer, more lasting
  • You’re ready to stop holding it all together and start feeling whole again

From boardroom to breakthroughs

After a 25 year corporate career including a decade at the top table, I realised that ticking all the boxes didn’t equate to deep fulfilment. Behind the achievements, I felt emotionally exhausted, misaligned, and disconnected from who I really was. That experience led me to create my current business, which focuses on supporting transformational journeys for successful people ready to release the subconscious blocks, unprocessed emotions, and inner patterns that no longer serve them. I’ve supported hundreds of high-performing women in stepping out of overwhelm, releasing long-held emotional patterns, and reconnecting with a life that feels as good as it looks. My work blends practical coaching, subconscious rewiring, emotional healing and deep energetic alignment.
