Hello, I'm Vanessa

I'm passionate about helping women break through the barriers that keep them playing small.

You're brilliant at what you do. You've worked hard to get here. But maybe you're also tired of second-guessing yourself, managing expectations, and feeling like you have to work twice as hard to be taken seriously.

I see you. I've been you. And I know how exhausting it is to pour so much energy into proving yourself instead of fully owning your power.

My story

For years, I played by the rules. I checked all the boxes, climbed the ladder, and did my best to be the "right kind" of leader - approachable but not too soft, confident but not too much. And yet, I still found myself questioning my voice in the room. Should I speak up? Is this worth pushing back on? Am I being too much?

Eventually, I realised that I didn't need to change myself to lead effectively - I needed to change the way I showed up. And that's exactly what I help clients do.

Now I work with women just like you - smart, driven, and ready to stop playing small - to build the skills and self-trust to navigate your way.

My Approach

Leadership isn't about trying harder - it's about leading smarter. When you coach with me, we work together to build:

• Unshakeable self-trust so you can stop doubting yourself and own your decisions.
• Strong leadership presence so people listen when you speak - without you having to shout.
• Effective communication strategies so you can stay out of drama and lead with clarity.
• A sustainable approach to success so you don't burn out trying to hold it all together.This isn't about fixing you, because you were never broken. It's about untangling the conditioning that's kept you playing small and stepping into the leader you were always meant to be.
