DOES ANY OF THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

YOU ARE STEPPING INTO LEADERSHIP FOR THE FIRST TIME.
You have been promoted or are about to be. You know your subject. But leading people is different. You want to find your authority without losing yourself in the process.

YOU ARE NOT IN THE DRIVING SEAT OF YOUR OWN LIFE.
You are responding to everyone else’s priorities. Your own ambitions and needs keep getting pushed to the bottom of the list. You cannot remember the last time you made a decision that was purely about what you actually want.

WORK IS BEING DONE TO YOU.
You are busy and capable but you feel reactive rather than purposeful. You are managing the load but not shaping the direction.

YOU STRUGGLE WITH IMPOSTER SYNDROME.
Despite your track record, self-doubt creeps in at the moments that matter most. In the boardroom, in high-stakes conversations, when you need to be visible. You know you have earned your place but you do not always feel it.

DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS KEEP GETTING AVOIDED.
The ones with your team, your peers, your senior stakeholders. You know what needs to be said. Something keeps stopping you from saying it.

YOU ARE CAUGHT IN THE DOUBLE BIND.
Too assertive and you are difficult. Too collaborative and you are weak. You are exhausted trying to find the right register and frustrated that the rules feel different for you.

YOU ARE OVERWHELMED AND BURNING OUT.
You are working harder than ever but the joy has gone out of it. Your energy is low, your patience is thin, and your relationships are starting to show the strain.

YOU WANT MORE EXECUTIVE PRESENCE AND VISIBILITY.
You know your ideas are strong but you struggle to land them with impact. You want to be heard, remembered and taken seriously at the highest levels.

YOU ARE COMPARING YOURSELF TO EVERYONE ELSE.
Other women seem to have it together. You know comparison is pointless but it is hard to stop when you are under pressure and constantly being assessed.
