You are ambitious, you are working internationally, in the development world. You’ve already achieved a lot in your career, you follow your own path, and you have strong ideals that you bring into your work every single day.

​

But then it’s Monday again; meeting day. You walk into the room and see your team already seated. The conversation starts and your mind switches on; the issue at hand could so easily be solved. Yet you keep your mouth shut. The meeting ends and you feel so frustrated with yourself. Why didn’t you say anything?

​

There’s a big event and you’ve been asked to present today. Weeks beforehand, the stomach aches begin. You have nightmares about losing your words, having a total blackout, and you wake up with trembling hands and a racing heart. And when the moment finally comes, that’s exactly what happens…

​

As a manager you’re the face of your department; at least, that’s what you’d think. But you’re not. You leave the presentations to others, barely speak up, and make yourself invisible. With frustration as the result; this won’t get you anywhere.

​

Then one day you finally say yes to a presentation. As soon as you start talking and look at the audience, you see everyone staring at their phones. You panic even more. It must be your voice, or you’re saying weird things, or… you don’t even know anymore… but you feel like a total failure.

​

If you continue like this...

You’ll start doubting yourself even more. You’ll keep yourself small and remain invisible. You’ll get increasingly frustrated with yourself, which only makes you hold back even more. That career growth? You can forget about it — and so are the funds your organisation desperately needs. As long as you hide, none of that will happen.

 

Testimonials

“At work, my job has become secure and I am more productive than I was. I get recognised for what I do because I’ve learned to voice that properly.”

​

“Natalie has truly made a difference in my life through how she uniquely delivers her life coaching. Her valuable holistic approach includes talk therapy, voice exercises and ambition setting. I truly appreciate her active listening, detailed insights and pragmatic advice. Through her sessions I was able to understand how central my voice is to my wellbeing (speaking up) and purpose (passion for music and creativity). I have been empowered to continue working towards a more fulfilled life. I would recommend Natalie’s sessions to anyone who is looking to take charge of their life, find their voice, fall (back) in love with music and their ultimate purpose, and commit to their self-awareness and exploration journey.”
