"In less than a year, I have become much more aware of the behaviours I exhibit and how to adjust them to foster healthier relationships with others".

Commonly Asked Questions

Why couples and families in business?

Family businesses often struggle not because of the business operation. In fact family-owned businesses tend to be more sustainable and more profitable than businesses that are not family owned. Instead they struggle because relationships and communication break down around them. These relationship tensions can happen for a huge number of reasons, many of which are not present in non-family businesses or with couples and families that do not work together.

Couples and families who run businesses are underserved and few professionals are trained or feel able to work with the whole family business system and the dynamics at play.

Motivated by my personal experience as a teenager in a family business, I've added my professional training as a psychotherapist, business coach and mediator with my own business experience to be uniquely specialised and qualified to help couples and families in business.

What areas and challenges do you help with?

It's a range.

I have worked with clients to help with a misalignment or tension between home life and work/business life.  I also have experience helping my clients find new ways of managing succession, governance, and conflict tensions too.

The majority of my clients feel that money has complicated their life.  Many want to explore what it means for them to be happy.

We will explore and work on what feels important and relevant.

Do you offer a discovery / chemistry call?

Absolutely.

I want you to take your time and ask all your questions before deciding if I'm the right person to support you.

Talking about the work doesn't come at any cost to you.

How soon can you start?

Within a week.

Your time is important so we won't delay.

If you're curious about whether this might be right for you, the best place to start is a confidential enquiry.  We'll then have a considered conversation to explore whether we are a good fit.
