Why elementas
elementas offers a calm, holistic approach to leadership and wellbeing – supporting you to bring together all the elements of your life so you can thrive, not just manage.
Rooted in lived experience, research, and professional standards, my work weaves together mindful compassion, leadership coaching, and business consultancy to support sustainable success for people and organisations.
How I can Support You:
I help you care for your mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing in the context of real working life – so emotional intelligence, resilience, and clarity grow naturally.
Through executive coaching or my Mindful Self-Leadership Framework, you’ll develop practical tools to manage pressure and stress, feel more grounded and confident, and lead with greater awareness and compassion.
This is leadership that feels sustainable and human – creating healthier workplaces where people feel valued, supported, and able to flourish.
Women’s Leadership Circles Courses and Coaching:
Small-group spaces designed to nurture female professionals through peer support and coaching. As well as connecting with like-minded women in a reflective space, you will deepen your self-awareness and find the courage and clarity to lead well. We will explore shared experiences and topics, the Yin and Yang of Compassionate leadership. You will gain supportive tools, practices, and techniques that will bring confidence and new energy to work and your personal life.

Trust, difference, and perspective shift
“You listen deeply and create a relaxed space. Your approach is different — non-traditional — and it helped me think differently. As a result, I’ve genuinely changed how I lead.”– Dave Murray, Vice President, GCP Technologies, American Express
Personalised coaching for leaders and professionals to cultivate mindful compassion, fostering personal awareness and presence, clarity, and balance in demanding roles.
