MARRIED TO YOUR CAREER AND DIVORCED FROM YOUR TRUE SELF?

COACHING TO RECONNECT, RECALIBRATE, AND BRING YOUR MOJO BACK TO LIFE

YOUR CAREER IS A WORK OF HEART

You’re a discerning GenX woman who’s built a successful career and busy life, wherever in the world you’re living.

Emotionally savvy, you love a good laugh, and are recognised for your brilliant work and personal accomplishments.

You’re also super stressed, but incredibly resilient and ‘lekker tough’ as we South Africans say, so you just grit your teeth and push on. The tricky thing is, you’ve lost your gorgeous Sense of Self along the way, and somewhere, somehow, you’ve stopped trusting yourself too.

That disconnection you feel from yourself and from those around you means self-doubt has started creeping in, leaving you feeling confused and somewhat detached from your life – which never used to be You! – and it’s all really disconcerting. You realise you’re over-committed in many areas and quite frankly, have been doing too much for too long – but you just can’t stop.

If left unchecked, this way of living can lead to overwhelm and burnout, and burnout is like a relationship gone bad.

You know things aren’t working, and that something needs to change … but what is that exactly?

THE HEART OF YOUR PRODUCTIVITY

You’re become The Invisible Expert: the woman who holds it all together at work, at home, and for everyone around you. And you’ve been doing it so well and for so long, that nobody (including you) noticed when your light started going out.

I know this because I spent years being the expert in the room who looked after everyone else, and I had no idea I was disappearing until I reached burnout. Now burnout may feel like a buzzword to some, but for many GenX professional women it’s a lived reality. So what is it exactly, and how do you stop burnout from taking over your life?

Burnout is NOT just about feeling tired all the time. It’s also not a mental health condition.

It’s a much larger systemic issue, and the negative consequence of giving too much for too long, while becoming completely disconnected from a life that you derived much of your identity, value and meaning from.

And it’s on the rise globally, with massive financial and devastating physical, mental and emotional costs, as we’re all becoming more and more disconnected from ourselves, each other, our support systems, and the natural world.

Even your subconscious beliefs can sabotage your connection to yourself, which means they also directly impact your mood, productivity, self-esteem, relationships, and your mental, emotional, spiritual, financial and physical health.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

LOATHING TO LOVE: "Before working with Lee, I was overwhelmed by the relentless pressure of my job. My days had been marked by chronic fatigue, a sense of detachment from my work, and an inability to enjoy my personal life. From the very beginning, Lee provided a compassionate and insightful approach to understanding the root causes of my burnout. Through a series of sessions, we focused on understanding my beliefs and how those had affected my ability to set and maintain healthy personal boundaries. Lee introduced practical strategies to improve the way I show up in the world, and as a result of my coaching, I experienced a profound recovery in my energy levels and emotional wellbeing. My productivity at work increased, and I rediscovered a sense of purpose and enthusiasm in my professional and personal life."

BURNOUT TO BLISS: "When I met Lee I was on my way to burnout, micromanaging my team and generally not a fun person to be around. It's truly amazing how a simple shift towards positivity can have such a profound impact on your life. I now sleep peacefully at night, I feel empowered, and have a genuine appetite for my personal and professional growth. I have gained the wisdom to know when to remain composed and when to speak up, and when I compare how I used to handle things with how I approach them now, the difference in me is remarkable! The impact you've had on my journey of growth and transformation has been life-changing.”

CLOSED TO COMPASSIONATE: "The first thing I discovered was I needed to change the way I perceived myself and start to have compassion for ME. I also discovered that I have limiting beliefs and a fixed mindset that have contributed to my lack of confidence, which is ironic considering my work is very academic. Now I realise I am capable of so much more, I just need to silence the saboteurs and noisy voices in my head."

LOST TO INSPIRED: "Before working with Lee I had basically lost my mojo when it came to my work and motivation. This was due to some bad experiences at work during lockdown and the general pressure that followed in trying to work in extremely difficult circumstances. I was eventually forcing myself to come to work, and I was at the point of giving up. Lee tells you like it is, sometimes it's just what you need to hear to pull yourself out of the rut. At times during our sessions I really thought that she could read what was going on in my head! I genuinely encourage anyone to engage with Lee who needs help. I am now living as the best version of myself!"

SELF-CRITICAL TO SELF-SUPPORTING: "I discovered that I was being very hard on myself by not acknowledging how far I have come in my different roles at home, in my work and as a member of society. By acknowledging how much I have achieved and the contribution I have given throughout my life, my perspective of life has changed and has eased my anxiety. I discovered how much time I have if I plan better and prioritize. I need not please everyone. I am a good person without external affirmation. Lee is very patient, a good listener, an expert at her craft but most importantly genuine as a human being. My time with her was worth every cent."

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING RING TRUE FOR YOU?

* Your relentless work ethic means you do everything at 150% effort, even if it doesn’t require it

* You’ve lost your sense of humour, and struggle with a short fuse as well as random feelings of imposter syndrome

* You find you’re a little bored, fairly cynical about life, and have become subtly disengaged from yourself and your loved ones

* You can’t sleep properly and your health is wobbling – inflammation, irritability and insomnia are now running your life

* You’re validating yourself through your work because that was your programming for ‘success’ as a youngster

* You’ve done all the things – the yoga classes, the affirmations and multiple vision boards, and yet you still feel stuck

THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN

How do I know? Because I was you. I was a high performer with what I thought was a ‘super healthy’ lifestyle who gave too much to my work, did all the ‘right’ things and completely lost my Sense of Self and my MOJO.

I battled emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually for years, and I burnt out twice. The first time was in my 30’s and wasn’t diagnosed properly, and the second time was in my 40’s and which catapulted me into a whole new way of being. That lived experience means I now help others recognise the signs early and recalibrate effectively to bring effective change to their work and life, improving their overall sense of wellbeing and healing their primary relationship with themselves.

So why work with a certified coach, and why me?

So many beautiful, capable women like you are battling with themselves every single day, wondering why – having done all the things they were told they ’should’ – something’s still missing, still feeling ‘off’. And that’s because the world has changed. Life is not what we were promised it would be, which is both a distressing and empowering concept to sit with, and one that’s necessary to integrate and learn from to prevent further disconnection.

There’s a formula from my training which explains this as Toxicity minus Self = Burnout. It illustrates why so many women like you and me have lost their Sense of Self, and why recalibration really matters in our modern, discombobulated world.

Alongside all the other stuff, I was also one of the first coaches worldwide to become Accredited Burnout Informed through The Burnout Academy (UK) in 2024, and have done my own work with emotional agility, mental fitness and personal leadership as well. I’ve walked through the fire myself, and while I’m not a medical professional who can diagnose burnout, I am able to help you recognise the signs, reduce your stress, and begin reconnecting to your gorgeous Self once again, to gently bring your MOJO back to life.
