this is for you if…

three situations I see most.

01 · working parenthood

rebuilding your relationship with work

what I hear

On paper the job is the same one you left. What returning parents describe is that they aren't the same person doing it, and nobody mentions that part. For every parent, whether you're a birthing or non-birthing one.

what we work on

Who you are now, what you want work to be for, and how to say that out loud to the people who need to hear it.

client story

Kate, an in-house lawyer, was contemplating going back and feeling overwhelmed by the juggling. We worked on her values, priorities and the systems to support them. She negotiated a 4-day week on the same pay, with one day in the office.

02 · redundancy, or going it alone

working out who you are without the job title

what I hear

Whether you were pushed or you jumped, the title's gone, and "so, what do you do?" has no easy answer. Pushed, the practical panic comes first. Jumped, it's the guilt of finding it hard when you chose it.

what we work on

What you're brilliant at, said in a way that doesn't put you in a box, and what you want next rather than what's nearest.

client story

Tiago was leaving the police to become a photographer. We built practical steps out of what he was already doing, so he didn't start from scratch, with a WhatsApp group to keep him accountable. He now shoots for Canon and Volvo, and photographs Paris Fashion Week.

03 · landing a new job

unlearning what made you good

what I hear

You got the job by being brilliant at the last one. In a new room, some of what made you good gets in the way, and nobody tells you which bits.

what we work on

What to keep, what to unlearn, and how you want to be known in your first weeks.

client story

Emily started a new job between our first and second sessions. We built the language for her strengths and the systems for her worst days. She stepped into the role with "more confidence and gravitas".

what you leave with

your conditions
for success.

Your own rules, built from your own evidence.

In practice that means a short set of rules, written as what you need to do to help yourself. They'll be small, specific, and yours, so they still work when the next thing changes.

how it works

start with one session.

1.

The Reset

90 minutes on Google Meet, with prep beforehand. £150, taken off anything that follows.

2.

Monthly retainer

Weekly or fortnightly sessions, minimum of three months.

3.

fieldwork between sessions

Small things to try in your real week, so the change is built on evidence.

"Our session was the first time I felt I had an actionable way to twist them all up into a balloon animal and just fucking go."
Valerie
