From anxiety and burnout to calm and confident leadership
Anxious and overworked
Sadie was anxious, stressed, and overworked. Her firm did not recognise her long hours or dedication. She felt frustrated, unsupported, and unheard.
Self-doubt and low self-esteem
She lacked confidence and struggled to make decisions. Speaking up felt unsafe, and any form of feedback landed as personal criticism.
Emotional distress and health struggles
Work always came first, which impacted her health and home life. Her toddler triggered waves of frustration, sadness, and anger, leaving her questioning herself as a mother.
Resentment and poor communication
She resented the unspoken shift in responsibilities at home but felt unable to express it. Her husband made the decisions. She found herself waiting for permission. She knew she needed help.
Scepticism and clear goals
Sadie had tried various forms of therapy before. She said:
“I was extremely sceptical of achieving results in such a short time.”
Still, she was clear about what she wanted:
Emotional freedom
To break free from old patterns
A new chapter in life
Greater independence
To be a better mother and partner
Six Months Later:
Feeling empowered, worthy and independent
Sadie now stands in her power. She trusts her intuition and believes in herself. After 37 years of seeking external approval, she no longer needs it.
Increased confidence and vocal expression
She confidently shares her point of view. She’s willing to have honest conversations at home and work. She now advises C-suite leaders and equity partners who trust her completely.
Improved leadership through delegating
Instead of doing everything herself, she asked for a team to support her. This not only boosted her visibility but also her performance. The C-suite now requests her strategic input, not just her reporting.
Calm, peace of mind and quality time at home
She works fewer hours, feels more fulfilled, and enjoys slow mornings with her daughter. She takes breaks and spends time in nature. A sense of peace has returned.
Work boundaries and reduced stress
She no longer works weekends. Late evenings are rare—down from ten to three a month. Stress has dropped from 7 to 4 (on a scale of 10). She feels better, looks healthier, and her wellbeing has improved.
Better communication, stronger relationships
She speaks openly with her partner and feels tension dissolve. She's more patient with her daughter and more confident as a mother. She actively reaches out to friends and is expanding her social circle.
Her words:
“I am worth it. I am worthy of love. It’s inherent and not based on other people’s opinions.
All of this wouldn’t have been possible without Nat’s help. Her full commitment kept me accountable. Her approach offers a range of tools not easily found elsewhere.”
How we did this
Step 1. Awareness, nervous regulation and boundaries
Defined clear strategy and commitment to her goals
Somatic exercises and guided meditations to calm her mind
Visualisations to connect with her confident future self
Felt her grandmother’s love and soul’s wisdom in hypnosis
Coaching to prioritise wellbeing, set work boundaries, and negotiate team support
“I feel such a tiredness and bliss from the acceptance, it’s unreal.
Like everything that happened was okay.
Like, there is a shift and change needed, but it is okay.”
Step 2. Emotional release and therapy
Released stuck emotions and healed childhood wounding
Treated the root cause of feeling unworthy, unheard, and unable to speak up
Inner child healing and release of inner teen anger with IFS therapy
Coaching to schedule self-care instead of overwork
In hypnosis, her subconscious shared:
“You won’t be ill if you listen to your inner wisdom.”
“Thank you Nat. You have no idea how much today meant for me. This session was the cherry on top of a fantastic journey. Thank you so much.”
Step 3. Compassion, acceptance and empowerment
Rewired limiting beliefs with self-compassion
Learned to listen to her body and reparent her inner child and teen using IFS
Developed the confidence to speak up, even in uncomfortable conversations
Coaching and soul communication helped her reconcile external goals with internal needs
Insight: “I can only control my thoughts and actions.
How other people feel is out of my control.”
Realisation: “I have everything I need to be happy.”
