The Authority Shift™ Coach
The Authority Shift™ Coach
You're smart. You've got experience. But if you're still being overlooked in meetings, over-explaining your expertise, or wondering why your authority isn't felt — it's not because
you're not good enough. It's because you're not being seen clearly enough.
I help accomplished women transform from being respected for their expertise to commanding the authority their competence deserves.
No fluff. No fixing what's not broken. Just behavioural science that gets results.

This isn't about mindset hacks or saying affirmations in the mirror.
This is about the specific behavioural patterns that keep brilliant women invisible despite their expertise.
Most of my clients are accomplished leaders who come to me feeling overlooked in meetings, having their ideas ignored until someone else repeats them, or struggling to command the executive presence their competence deserves.
The problem? Specific communication patterns that signal deference instead of authority. These patterns can be measured and systematically changed using behavioural science.
I coach you to shift these patterns. We work on authority, presence, and influence — so you're not just more confident, you're more effective. That's when people start listening. That's when your expertise gets the respect it deserves. That's when everything shifts.

“Wow what a page turner.
The book reads like a thriller, except that the “Who Dunnit” was clear from the start. I enjoyed it immensely, but what a terrible story of incompetence, frustration and indeed of Narcissism...."
- Mik van den Noort, Holland
“I had to read the book in one go, could not put it down until I finished.”
