WHERE ARE YOU NOW
Challenges I help you overcome
I meet many incredible leaders who feel overwhelmed by the weight of their responsibilities. Wrestling with self-doubt, over-burdening themselves, feeling drained by unproductive dynamics, or simply wondering if there's a better way to lead.
It’s not a potential problem - it’s a lack of the right support to help you truly tap into your talents. With the right guidance, you achieve grounded confidence, powerful presence and strategic influence so you can perform at your best.

Struggling to maintain boundaries
Is work negatively affecting your health, time or sense of self? Finding it tricky to balance high standards with understanding? I help you establish healthy habits and transparent expectations that achieve sustainable excellence for you and your team.
-
Getting stuck in 'busy-work'
Do patterns of perfectionism or overcommitment surface under stress? Through nuanced expertise, I help you resolve these unresourceful patterns, so you can stay present, delegate effectively, and focus on the bigger picture.

Difficulty inspiring peak-performance
Struggling to influence positive change? Need better buy-in? Lacking motivation yourself? Using advanced psychology-informed techniques, I help you build engaged teams you can trust while realigning with your personal purpose and drive.

Avoiding hard conversations? Lose composure during conflict? Struggling to influence difficult stakeholders? Learn sophisticated communication skills that help you lead in uncertainty with confidence and composure.

“Words fail to communicate how in tune with me Alex has been. She has incredible range and evident mastery of transformational mindset work.”
VR Engineer, Los Angeles
Hey, I’m Alex,
I'm a professional coach with over 15 years of experience developing high-performance teams and leaders globally.
Since stepping into my first leadership role at 21, I've been fascinated by what drives us, what leads to success, and the remarkable potential of the human mind.
This curiosity led me to become a Master Practitioner of Transformational Coaching, complemented by research into performance science, humanistic psychology and ethical leadership.
I'm particularly drawn to the interplay between personal fulfilment and peak performance, exploring:
the tensions between peace and ambition
the difference in fear-driven vs purpose-fueled motivation
the intersections of self-mastery and personal freedom
My coaching is a deep exploratory process, crafted to unlock your full potential. Rather than generic advice, we draw on a rich tapestry of experiences and frameworks to align with your unique goals. Expect challenging questions, “ah ha” insights, and a good sense of humour that means enjoying the process along the way.
In my five years as a full-time professional coach, I've partnered with CEOs of global organisations and had the privilege of helping hundreds worldwide become more purposeful, fulfilled and effective leaders.
When I’m not coaching clients or studying the latest high-performance research, you’ll find me: watching sunrise, training martial arts or indulging my next (mildly dangerous) adventure.
MY PHILOSOPHY
Future-ready leadership, now…
To create exceptional impact, leaders must master three domains: self-knowledge, ethical influence, and purpose-driven performance.
Traditional authority-based leadership is giving way to influence-based leadership that demands sophisticated people skills and high ethical standards.
Senior leaders must navigate increasing stakeholder expectations, distributed power structures, and the human desire for meaningful work whilst delivering consistent results. This new leadership landscape requires mastery in three foundational domains to build healthy, high-performing organisations.
