Hi! I'm Leah and I help support charity leaders who are feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or struggling to stay on top of everything.

If you're like many of the leaders I work with, you might be questioning your ability to to keep going while facing a never-ending cycle of funding pressures, recruitment challenges and feeling pulled in all directions – all while your own wellbeing takes a back seat.

I specialise in helping leaders who are/suspect they may be ADHD and/or Autistic – like I am – but haven’t had the time or space to focus on what this means for them. I help charity leaders accept and prioritise themselves so they can lead impactful, inclusive teams without burning out.

As a former charity CEO myself, I understand the unique challenges you’re facing. You’re deeply invested in your mission, but the emotional labour, unrealistic expectations, and never-ending to-do lists are leaving you drained. Together, we’ll work on rediscovering your energy, building self-confidence, and creating sustainable strategies that work with your brain, not against it. Whether it’s overcoming memory, motivation or time management challenges or that niggling feeling that you're not good enough, I’ll help you focus on what matters most – for both you and your organisation.

Beyond supporting you personally, I also work with charity leaders to help their teams thrive.

If you want to create a truly neuroinclusive workplace where everyone can contribute their best, we can work together to make this a reality.

My strengths-based and inclusive approach helps you get the best out of every single team member. Together, we'll build an environment where your people can flourish – and where you, as a leader, can feel confident in your ability to drive meaningful impact.

With a background in strengths-based coaching, neuroinclusion, and 25 years in the charity sector, I bring both empathy and practical experience to the table. My approach is grounded in the belief that every leader and every team deserves to thrive. Let’s work together to help you lead with confidence and create a workplace where everyone’s strengths are celebrated.

"Leah helped me see that embracing my strengths, rather than trying to fit a mold, was key to connecting with people and growing in a sustainable way.

Her guidance is both insightful and actionable, and she has a way of empowering you to take your next steps with clarity and purpose through creativity. I also experienced a shift in mindset that has helped me move forward with greater confidence.

Whether you are looking to strengthen your leadership skills, or find direction, Leah has the experience and wisdom to support you through that journey."
