Hi there

I'm Aimee

I am a double-certified career and burnout coach studying an MSc in Psychology. And I still work in corporate. That last part matters.
I am not coaching you from a distance. I am in the meetings. I know what a calendar with no breathing room feels like. I know what it is to look completely fine on the outside while something quieter is unravelling underneath.I have had two burnouts. I have worked in high stakes, unhealthy cultures and told myself it was fine. I have lost myself in a job, in a title, in the belief that the next promotion would be the thing that finally felt like enough.It was not. And I had to learn that the hard way.Now I work with capable women in corporate who are starting to suspect the same thing. Women who are good at their jobs, great under pressure, and quietly exhausted in a way they cannot fully explain. Women who have read the books, tried the habits, and still cannot make the shift stick.That gap between knowing and actually changing? That is exactly where we work.Through the Root and Rise method, we go underneath the behaviour. To the beliefs that are driving it. The stories you formed long before you became a senior leader, that are still quietly running the show today.I bring psychology, coaching, and a decade of corporate leadership together in one place. Because what most coaching misses is the root. And without that, you are just rearranging the surface.If you have been holding it together for so long that you have forgotten what thriving actually feels like, you are in the right place.

My story

I thought I had it all figured out...

I spent years being very good at giving everything to my job.Good enough to go from primary school teacher to corporate learning leader in a few years. Good enough to be trusted by some of the biggest organisations in the world. Good enough that from the outside, it looked like it was all going to plan.It wasn't.I had quietly stopped looking after everything else. I told myself the rest could wait. One more promotion. One more month. Then I'll slow down.I didn't slow down. I had my daughter, worked in two dysfunctional senior teams back to back, and somewhere in all of that I lost myself completely. I was performing fine on the surface. Underneath it, I was depleted.The moment things cracked open was when I finally left dysfunctional job number 2. It felt like the worst thing that had ever happened to me. In some ways, it was. But it was also the thing that forced me to look honestly at what I had built, what it had cost me, and who I actually was underneath the job title.I tried the quick fixes first. The diets, the habit trackers, the wellness apps. None of it lasted. Because none of it went to the root.What changed things was going deeper. Looking at the beliefs I had built about what I had to earn, what I was allowed to want, and what rest meant for someone like me. That is what everything I do now is built on.Today I still work in corporate. I lead on learning and leadership development, and I coach for organisations including British Airways, Chelsea FC, Beauty Pie and Just Eat.I bring the leadership experience, the psychology, and the honest version of my own story into the room. To help capable women in corporate find their way back to themselves.Not the polished version. The real one.

Dawn Turner

"Aimee brings refreshing energy and zest to her clients. She recently led a session for my senior management team exploring management styles, strategic thinking and avoiding the urge to dip down and do everything at the expense of wellbeing and thinking time. The team loved her session and she translates her sessions into pledges and tools to support the group seamlessly. Boundless ever, honesty and hugely fun - if you are looking for someone impactful then I would highly recommend Aimee. She is a joy to work with."

Vijay Chohan

British Airways

"Aimee was integral to the Women’s Leadership Development Programme at British Airways as one of the key coaches to the cohort of female future leaders. Aimee delivered a number of coaching sessions for the delegates, with a focus on empowerment and career goals. Feedback from the delegates has been astounding and a number of them have commented on how Aimee has helped them to reach their career potential and create a clearly defined career path. Aimee successfully created a safe space for our women to thrive and bring their authentic selves to work."

Yali Sassoon

It's good for each team member, and it's invaluable for the business as a whole. The return on investment in our team is just so high."
