Former Global VP | Rebuilt | Living Proof

 What happens when you wake up and ask: Is this it?

I spent 30+ years delivering results. Global VP. Scaled revenue from $2.5M to $100M. Led 8 acquisitions.  

Then one morning I woke up and thought: 'What am I actually doing with my life?'

I wasn't burnt out nor did I have a breakdown. Just the terrifying realisation that I'd built a career that consumed me and I wasn't sure I wanted it anymore.

You'll learn:

• What happens when success stops feeling like success
• The cost of performing vs. the power of presence
• How to rebuild your life and leadership without losing your edge
• Why drive without intuition leads to the wrong destination

Best for: Leadership conferences, women's summits, transformation events, anyone asking 'is this what I worked for?'

Why your best leaders are one decision away from leaving.

Middle managers carry impossible weight with insufficient authority. They're squeezed from all sides. 

And they're disappearing.

I've been the middle manager drowning AND the executive making the calls that broke them.

You'll learn:

• The real cost of losing your middle managers
• What actually keeps them (vs. what you think keeps them)
• Warning signs before talent walks

Best for: Executive offsites, leadership retreats, organisational strategy sessions

Leadership, ambition & faking it - the honest version.

I can walk into a billion-dollar company and tell them how they're screwing up. No problem.

Standing on stage as myself? Terrified.

This is about the gap between confidence in the role and doubt in ourselves. The performance trap. Leading without all the answers. The things we whisper but never admit.

You'll learn:

• Why imposter syndrome shows up even when you know your shit
• The difference between role authority and personal authority
• How to stop performing and start owning who you are

Best for: Manager events, leadership programs, authentic leadership conferences
