Walk into the next hard moment and back yourself in real time.
A 1:1 coaching container for high-achieving women who are tired of replaying difficult conversations at 11pm - and ready to find their voice in the moments that actually matter.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
You've prepared for this moment backwards and forwards. The minute you get there, something shifts. You're blank.
You know what you should have said. Six hours later.
If this sounds familiar, you're in the right place - and you're far from alone.
It's 3am and you're awake - running through tomorrow's to-do list for a client. Your mind won't stop talking to you. You haven't even logged in yet.
You're sitting across from the person you need to have this conversation with and your heart starts pounding. You know your position backwards and forwards. That doesn't seem to make any difference.
They're being dismissive. They're also wrong, and you know it because you've done the work. But they say it with such conviction that something in you freezes. The information you have is right there, and you can't reach it.
You walk out of the room, debrief with your colleagues, drive home, debrief with your partner. And six hours later, in the kitchen, it lands. "I should have said this." That's when the information comes back. Always too late.
You're dreading tomorrow because you know who your opposite is and you know they'll make it a living hell. You've stopped backing yourself. You're calling for a second opinion. Then a third.
THE PROMISE
The 11pm replay loop becomes a real-time response.
You stop being put down by bad behaviour and start pushing back in the moment it's happening - calmly, clearly, without it costing you something.
You stop calling for a second and third opinion to make decisions you already know how to make. You back yourself. And the version of you that walks into the courtroom, the boardroom, or the hard conversation is the same version of you that walks out.
WHY THIS WORKS
You don't need more advice. You need your own answers earlier.
Most coaching either tells you what to do (high guidance) or asks endless open questions and leaves you to figure it out alone (low guidance). Both have their place. Neither, on its own, gets you there.
My approach moves between the two depending on what you actually need in that moment. When you're spiralling, I get you to safety first. When the answer is on the tip of your tongue, I ask the question that gets you to it. When you genuinely don't have the information, I give it to you straight - drawn from legal practice, mediation, and years inside the same rooms you're navigating.
When you generate the realisation yourself, you've done the cognitive work to sustain it. You've felt it in your bones. That's why it sticks.
No one-size framework. No 12-step self-paced modules leaving you drowning and trying to figure it out yourself. This is a supported and guided sequence built around your situation, your pace, and the specific conversations you're navigating. High support. High accountability.
I've stood in the same rooms you're in.
I know the dynamics of court, opposing counsel, government agencies, and difficult clients, from the inside.

Everything in the container, and what each piece is worth on its own.

CHOOSE YOUR PACE
Three containers: same depth, different rhythms.
Named after the NASA programs that mapped new territory step by step. Mercury proved it was possible. Gemini refined the approach. Apollo went all the way. Whichever pace you choose, you're going somewhere you haven't been before.
INTENSIVE
6 WEEKS . 6 SESSIONS
Mercury
For when something needs to shift now. Weekly sessions, immersive work, fast traction. Best when you're in the middle of something hard and need momentum, not pacing.

Gemini
PACED
12 WEEKS . 7 SESSIONS
The sweet spot. Fortnightly sessions with one extra built in near the midpoint. Enough rhythm to keep moving, enough space between sessions for the work to settle and integrate.

MY PROMISE TO YOU
The two-session guarantee
If you do the work and it isn't shifting anything, you don't pay for the rest.
Show up to your first two sessions. Do the work in session, do the work between sessions. If at the end of session two you genuinely don't feel anything shifting, come and tell me. We'll have an honest conversation, and I'll refund the remainder of the container.
I can back this guarantee because I've seen what happens when someone shows up properly. The aha moments come and the shifts land. Your job is to do the work; mine is to make sure the work is worth doing.
I take a maximum of four 1:1 clients at any one time, so each container gets the depth, attention, and responsiveness it deserves. When the four spots are full, the waitlist opens.
The work in their words.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
I had no idea my marriage could get so much better.
Youth worker
You immediately put me at ease. Your empathy, compassion and strong legal knowledge made discussing a sensitive process much easier; you truly work with both heart and mind to ensure the best outcome.
Founder + lawyer
You created a safe space where I could open up; you’re very caring and gentle with your words yet firm when needed, and your genuine care and compassion made a tough conversation seem easy.
Business owner
What first felt impossible became a real possibility thanks to Mary - I truly couldn’t have reached this milestone without her support and guidance. I hit the mentor jackpot!
Junior lawyer
Mary has a calm, grounding presence that makes you feel like you can just be yourself - no performance, no pressure. Around her you feel safe, understood, and somehow more okay with where you are, even if everything isn't figured out yet.
Barrister
I feel genuinely privileged to have met you. I can't thank you enough for giving me this feedback. I knew there was a disconnect between my abilities and how I was presenting but just could not seem to hone in. Thank you again for everything.
Admitted lawyer + social worker
QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE
Frequently asked questions.
Therapy looks backwards to understand. Coaching looks forwards to act. The two work beautifully alongside each other. Many of my clients have a therapist as well - but they're doing different jobs.
How is this different to therapy?
I've done coaching before and it didn't really work. Why would this be different?
Because most coaching is either purely directive ("here's what to do") or purely reflective ("how does that make you feel"). I move between the two depending on what you actually need in the moment. And because I've worked inside the legal and community systems you're operating in, I'm not guessing at the dynamics, I know them.
Which container should I choose?
If you're in the middle of something hard right now, choose Mercury (intensive). If you want momentum sans pressure, choose Gemini (paced). If you want depth + the longest support window, choose Apollo (relaxed).
If you genuinely can't decide, book a free 20-minute call and we'll figure it out together.
What does "unlimited voice and text support" actually mean?
Exactly what it says (within reasonable use). If something happens between sessions and you need to debrief, regulate, think out loud, or some mini coaching, send me a voice note or a text. I'll respond as soon as I can. I'm here for the real moments, not just the scheduled ones.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. Payment plans are available for all three containers - just let me know when you book and we can discuss the best fit.
