The method · Step 1 of 3
MAP
We make your operating system visible: the trigger, the internal story, the coping pattern and the cost. What your performance actually runs on, on paper.
Performance coaching
You built the business. Now it runs on you.
Performance coaching for founders and women in leadership whose next level demands more than their current operating system can carry. Built on the psychology used inside Olympic-level sporting programs.
Start with the Blueprint
Most leadership coaching helps you manage pressure.
This work re-engineers the system creating it.

What the pattern looks like
You’re a woman in business, leadership or entrepreneurship who’s ‘got it together’ on the outside. And lately, something isn’t holding the way it used to. You look composed in the room, then later snap or shut down over something small. You run multiple drafts in your head before you speak because the margin for error feels personal. You don’t just carry responsibility—you absorb it. You’ve trained yourself to operate under pressure, and now your system doesn’t know how to switch off. You already know how to perform. This is about performing without the internal cost.
None of this is a discipline issue. It isn’t mindset. The internal operating system that built your business—the vigilance, the standards, the absorbing of every load—is the same system now setting the ceiling. It can’t be pushed harder. It can be re-engineered.
Olympic sporting programs don’t hire motivators. They hire performance psychologists because, at that level, the difference isn’t effort. It’s what a person’s internal system does under load. I’m a performance psychologist with a PhD in Psychology (Performance Psychology), and I’ve worked within multiple Australian Olympic sporting programs. I now do that work for women whose arena is the company they built. This pathway is coaching, not psychological treatment, and those boundaries remain clear.

My flagship 1:1 engagement. It begins with the Blueprint, re-engineers what you run on, then proves it where it counts—on your real calendar.
Around fourteen sessions across sixteen weeks, voice/message support between them, the written Blueprint at the start and a re-map at the end.
Two payments of $6,300 are available. I work with a very small number of clients at any one time.

Common questions
Before you begin
Performance coaching works on the patterns underneath how you operate—perfectionism, people-pleasing, delegation and decision-making under pressure—so performing at your level costs less. It is structured, skills- and capacity-focused work for founders, CEOs and executives. It is coaching, not a clinical service.
Coaching doesn’t diagnose or treat mental health conditions. It works on performance patterns, capacity and skills. Where psychological support is the better fit, LvlUp offers a clearly separate psychology pathway.
Established founders, CEOs, executives and women in leadership who already perform at a high level and want it to be more sustainable—less over-functioning, less second-guessing and more repeatable confidence.
There are two ways in. The Performance Blueprint is a single 90-minute mapping session with a written plan. Carrying Capacity is the 16-week flagship—MAP, REWIRE, LOAD—with around fourteen sessions and support between them. Both are one-to-one and online, and the Blueprint is credited if you continue.
Yes. Coaching runs online wherever you’re based.
No. Coaching here isn’t remedial. It’s for high performers who are functioning well and want more capacity, cleaner decisions and confidence that holds when the stakes rise.
