Career built at
I did two jobs for 12 months. I didn't get the promotion.
Most women I coach have a version of that story. Hardest working person in the room. Taking on more to prove it. Still not seen.
Then you go four days, or you ask for flex, and the next role goes to someone else. Nobody says why. So you tell yourself you're lucky just to have a role that gives you flex.
And the advice? Do more. Be more visible. Say yes to the extra project. That's the delivery trap. I lived in it for years.
This workshop is the model I built to step out of the trap of doing more, burning out and staying invisible, to gain agency and alignment. It is values led, impact first and shaped by you before the system catches up.
By the end of this 90-minute workshop, you'll have:
- 1Your Next Values Led Career Move to have a career with meaning and impact.
- 2Your Leadership Style mapped out to feel confident, empowered and know your unique leadership superpower.
- 3Three Key Shifts to get you promotion ready without burnout or sacrificing your family and life outside work.
This Is For You If…
- You're ready for what's next and not sure how to make the move.
- You're working flexibly and it feels like it's costing you the career.
- You're in rooms you've earned and still feel like you don't belong there.
This Is NOT For You If…
- You're in the first few years of your career. This is built for mid to senior women in product, design, tech and delivery.
- You want a hack. This is a model you'll actually use.
- You want to work more hours. I want you working on the right things.
The belief
A senior role means being on 24/7. So it's the career or your life.
The truth
I was a four-day Head of Product for close to seven years. Same outcomes as my full-time peers. Fridays off with my son.
The model doesn't ask you to fit the system. It gives you permission to design your own, and the structure to lead inside it.
Before working with her, I knew what I was capable of but struggled to fully own it. She helped me change that. My confidence in what I know and how I express it grew in ways I didn't expect, and my whole mindset about leadership evolved, it became more grounded, more polished, more mine.
You are amazing. Your insightful observations are an absolute breath of clarifying fresh air.
Here's the problem we'll solve:
You're doing the work of two people and hoping someone notices. There's no time left to think about where your career is going, let alone design it.
We do that in the room. Your next move. Your leadership style. And the three shifts that move a career without adding hours to it.
Most leadership advice tells women to do more. I'm going to show you what I stopped doing.
And, let me tell you, I stopped doing a lot without dropping outcomes.
You'll leave with your next move written down and one outcome-led win ready to share with your leader this week.

The Business Case For Flex And Outcomes
Flex and outcomes aren't mutually exclusive. Here's the case, ready for a real conversation.
Your Circle Of Influence Map
Who you need around you, plus a calendar template for one relationship meeting a fortnight.
"I can't make the time on a Tuesday at 11am."
I get it. It feels like we don't have the time and life is busy. Start the mind shift now, where you spend your time shifts as you grow. Less time in delivery, more time in growth, strategy and relationship building. Put this hour in like it's a meeting with your CEO. If you can't, there's a 48 hour replay.
"I've done leadership workshops before."
So have I. Most were built for a full-time, always-on career. This one comes from close to seven years of leading at Head Of level on four days. It's about what you stop doing, not what you add.
"I'm not ready for the next level."
Am I ready? If I got the job tomorrow would I sink or swim? I hear this in nearly every conversation. It's rarely a skills gap. It's a belief gap. I truly believe in a room of women where you feel a true sense of belonging and with someone who has your back you'll feel ready in no time.

Solo parent. Host of the Ambition & Life podcast. My mission is to see more women thrive at work and succeed in senior leadership on terms that work for them.
Imagine this. It's three months after Lead Like A Woman.
You've named the next move and said it out loud to the person who can make it happen. Your wins land with your leader every week. You've stopped taking the work that proves nothing.
You still do the school run. Or the morning walk. You still log off when you need to AND the career is moving.
The workshop is free. For the women who want to go deeper, I'll share how we keep going inside the full program.
90 minutes. The model I used. Your terms.
Ambition and life. Both is where we thrive.
