The READERS’ DIGEST version…
You can achieve every goal and still be unsure of who you are beneath all that success. That's where burnout resides, in the space between what you're doing and what truly makes you happy.
You're exhausted because you're doing what's expected instead of living what inspires you.
I help high-performing leaders see their blind spots and the hidden patterns quietly guiding their lives. My clients say it feels like magic because I see what they aren't revealing and hear what they're not saying.
My journey: For years, I wore masks, different versions of myself for different audiences. The inauthenticity caused depression and burnout. Then one day, too exhausted to keep up the masks, the real me revealed itself. A colleague said, "We want more of this version of you." That changed everything.
I combine business acumen, performance measurement, and psychology with levity and humour. We explore what lies beneath the surface while keeping it grounded and unexpectedly light.
What Changes
When we work together, you'll stop wasting energy on what is expected and begin focusing on what brings you joy. You'll develop genuine trust in your own decision-making, foster psychological safety for yourself and your team, and show up as your authentic self, not as different versions. You'll lead without constant self-doubt and feel proud of your impact, not just your output.
You'll stop twisting yourself into a pretzel. You'll begin standing exactly as who you are.
Fair warning: Working with me means you can't hide anymore. Hiding is exhausting anyway, so perhaps that's a relief.
The Grab-A-Tea ‘cause this is the long version:
You can build empires, lead teams, and crush every goal on your list, and still have no idea who you are underneath all that achievement.
That's where burnout lives. Not necessarily in the workload, but in the gap between what you're doing and what truly brings you joy.
If you're here, you're probably exhausted and restless, not quite sure why. You're putting all your energy into what you believe is expected of you, into what you've convinced yourself you should be doing, when what you really need is to reconnect with what comes naturally to you, what lights you up.
You're performing a version of yourself that looks successful on paper and living a carefully constructed image.
Here's the thing nobody tells you, though: You can't think your way out of this one.
You want to feel good about yourself without needing to earn it through another achievement.
You want to lead without the constant voice in your head doubting every decision.
You want to be remembered for making a real difference, not just meeting targets.
You truly want to matter to those around you.
You need to stop pretending you've got it all sorted and just... be yourself. Whatever that even means anymore.
You can't reach your goal because something's blocking you; something you can't see. That's what blind spots do: they hide in plain sight while quietly influencing your life.
How do I know this?
Here's a short story that always makes me laugh: A few years ago, I remember telling my therapist, "I think I have it all figured out. I've never felt better, clearer, more sure of myself." And, as if I had jinxed myself, days later, I couldn't get out of bed. I had fallen into a dark hole of questioning my purpose and self-worth.
I could see the irony in it all in real time – laughing and crying my way through. And if you’re wondering, yes, I still experience the joyful ride of existential dread and the shame spiral.
So yeah. I'm human, and it was humbling.
Let me back up.
For years before that, I was the queen of twisting myself into pretzels for others. I didn't trust my own decisions. I couldn't express my needs, ask for help, or show any cracks in the facade. So I wore masks, many of them, different versions of Tina for various audiences.
The inauthenticity was exhausting. I was depressed and burned out.
Then one day at work, doing the job I loved with people I admired and respected, I was so exhausted I genuinely couldn't keep the masks on anymore. The real me started showing up. I was funny, ridiculous, even, and mortified.
A colleague walked up to me and said, "We want more of this version of you."
That moment changed everything.
It began a long, messy journey of discovering who I truly was when I wasn't performing. Learning to trust myself. Building enough psychological safety to stop hiding. Showing up as a whole person, not fifteen fractured versions.
It took time. (See: the "I've got it figured out" disaster two days before the spiral.)
Eventually, I learned something crucial and daunting: This work is never done. Just when you think you've arrived, everything changes. And that's part of being human.
Here's the honest truth: I still have moments of doubt, and they remind me that everyone struggles with this stuff, even people who look like they have it figured out.
What I Do Now (And Why Clients Say It Feels Like Magic)
I help ambitious, high-performing leaders illuminate what's hidden in their blind spots – what’s unseen, unheard, and unacknowledged.
Which, if you think about it, is a ridiculous job description. "Hi, I'll show you what you can't see by definition."
My clients tell me that our conversations feel like magic, as if I hear what they're not saying and see what they're not showing. Some people love it, while others find it uncomfortable at first. That discomfort is often where the breakthrough happens, allowing them to surpass their own expectations, and why they make massive gains in very short periods of time.
One client described it this way: "It's like Tina is walking the path with me, pointing out unnecessary obstacles, keeping me focused on where I’m going and highlighting options I don’t see, all with bold observations, vulnerability, and humour."
That's the work.
I blend business acumen, performance measurement, and psychology with levity and humour. We explore what's really going on beneath the surface. We keep it grounded and often surprisingly light. Together, we rethink what’s possible and solve better problems.
What Actually Changes
When we work together, you'll:
Stop wasting energy on what is expected and begin focusing on what brings you joy.
Build real trust in your own decision-making (not superficial confidence).
Prioritize creating psychological safety for yourself first, then extend it to those around you.
Show up as a whole person, not as masked versions.
Lead without constant self-doubt and imposter syndrome.
Feel good about your work and your impact, not just your output.
You'll stop twisting yourself into a pretzel. Learn more about yourself, accept who you are, and know that you are exactly who you are meant to be at every single moment.
A Quick Reality Check
I need to be honest about something: Coaching is an unregulated industry, which means experiences vary wildly. Some coaches overpromise, some underdeliver, and I know that leaves many people skeptical.
People have been burned. People are skeptical. I get it.
Here's my promise: I won't sell you a quick 90-day transformation, a 7-figure blueprint, or any other nonsense. Instead, I'll walk the journey with you, show you what you might be missing, and help you figure out what's next.
Some obstacles we'll overcome together. Some paths only you can choose.
You won't be doing it alone. You won't be pretending anymore.
If This Resonates, Take a Breath
You don't need another productivity hack or leadership book. What you need is space to see what's truly happening beneath the surface, and someone who can walk alongside you as you figure it out.
So ask yourself: "What would you do if you stopped trying to do it 'right'?"
What would it be like to finally trust that answer?
If you're ready to stop performing and start living, if you want someone who can see what you can't and will tell you the truth (with humour and without judgment), let's talk.
P.S. Just a heads-up: Working with me means you can't hide anymore. Hiding is tiring anyway, so maybe that's a relief.
