If you are exhausted in a way that rest isn't fixing, something structural needs to change. That's what this work is for.

Burnout doesn't arrive suddenly. It builds quietly โ through years of doing too much, absorbing too much, and ignoring the signals that something was wrong. By the time most women reach out, they have been pushing through for a very long time.
If several of these are true, you are not broken and you are not weak. You are burned out. And burnout has specific causes โ which means it has specific solutions.
Most burnout advice skips straight to productivity systems and life redesign. That only works once you are stable enough to think clearly. When you are in burnout, the first job is different.
Phase one
Before anything else, we identify what is actively draining you and reduce the immediate pressure. This is not about doing less forever โ it is about creating enough space that your system can begin to recover. We look at what you are carrying, what can be put down, and what needs to change right now.
Phase two
Once you are stable enough to think, we find the actual causes. Burnout is almost never about one thing โ it is a structural problem built up over time. We identify the specific patterns, demands, and dynamics driving your depletion and make concrete changes. Not coping strategies. Real changes.
Sessions are 60 minutes via video call. They are not gentle reframing or guided journalling. They are direct, structured conversations focused on what is actually causing the problem and what can practically change.
Between sessions you work on specific actions we agree together โ small, concrete, low-friction. Nothing that adds to your already-full plate without removing something first.
The programme runs across approximately three months. Clients are based in the UK, Europe, and internationally. Everything is online.
๐ฟ Who you’d be working with
25 years in digital and marketing. Burnout in 2021 alongside perimenopause. ADHD diagnosis at 43. In 2023 I sold most of what we owned, left Cape Town, and started again โ 10 countries, three worldschooled kids, now living in Guatemala.
I coach the way I do because I have been where you are. I know what it actually takes to stop, stabilise, and rebuild differently. Not theory โ lived experience.

Common questions
A burnout recovery coach helps you stop, stabilise, and understand what actually caused your burnout โ not just manage symptoms. The work is practical and honest: identifying what needs to change structurally, not just behaviourally, so recovery holds and does not repeat.
Coaching is forward-focused and practical. It does not treat mental health conditions or process the past. It helps you identify and remove the structural causes of burnout and rebuild differently. If you are in crisis, your GP or a therapist is the right first step. Coaching works best when you are stable enough to work on your life but stuck enough to need honest, structured support.
Yes โ most people cannot simply stop. Recovery is about reducing what is draining you while you are still in it, and making structural changes that lower the ongoing load. Complete rest helps but rarely resolves burnout, because the causes remain even after you return.
Recovery is not linear and depends on how long burnout has been building. Most clients begin to feel meaningfully different within six to twelve weeks once the right changes are in place. The programme runs across approximately three months.
Burnout and perimenopause arrive simultaneously for many women in their 40s and they amplify each other in specific ways. This combination is addressed directly in the coaching โ not as a side note. You can also read more in the Burnout & Perimenopause Guide.
