Core Focus: Return to Work/Career
I am a fierce advocate for better support for women returning to paid work after maternity leave. This transition isn’t just logistical—it’s deeply personal. I help women navigate this shift with confidence, clarity, and support, so they can thrive in both their careers and motherhood!


About
Originally from London, I now live in Australia with my two beautiful children, my husband, and our (well-travelled) dog.
After experiencing two vastly different returns to work after maternity leave, I couldn’t ignore the gaps in support for mothers navigating this transition. The pressure to prove yourself, the mental load of managing work and home, the unspoken expectation that you should return as though nothing has changed—it was clear to me that we needed a new way forward.
Returning to your professional role after maternity leave can be a vulnerable time. It’s a season of immense change, and yet, so many women are left to navigate it alone. But here’s what I know:
💡 When mothers are supported in the right way, everything changes.
💡 Confidence grows. Boundaries strengthen. Success feels sustainable—not exhausting.
💡 You don’t have to “bounce back”—you get to move forward, on your own terms.
Through coaching, consulting, and advocacy, I help women step into this next chapter with clarity, confidence, and the support they deserve. Because motherhood isn’t the end of ambition—it’s an evolution. And when we start recognising that? We all rise.
