Do you ever find yourself stressing about little stuff?
Struggling to balance a million jobs for everyone else and never finding time for yourself?
Do you feel like a pressure cooker ready to explode at any time?
You’re not alone.
Figuring out how to stress less is probably one of the most precious skills any busy woman can possess.
Yes, it is possible!
And this course is exactly that - you will quickly discover your unique strengths and learn how to leverage these strengths to stress less.
All whilst being 100% authentically you
Finding your strengths is easier than you might think …
As women, we are quick to find faults with ourselves. We are experts at spotting what others can do that we can't.
But for some bizarre reason, our unique strengths are so close, so ingrained we take them for granted.
They literally become invisible.
But what if we could see our strengths?
What if we could leverage our greatest strengths to squash our stress triggers and bring calm back to our lives.
And that's exactly what this course will do…
This is no ordinary stress management course …
Because it is about what is right with you not what is wrong with you.
It's about looking at the core of your personality. Mining for the gems. And then polishing these gems to allow you to be you on purpose.
This course is based on personal experience. I went from chronic pain levels of stress to 100% pain-free.
You’ll quickly discover your own unique strengths
And then learn practical ways to use these strengths to stress less and become a better you
Identify your stress triggers
And remove everyday frustrations
Manage your reaction to stress
Follow a 3 step process (no more pressure cooker explosions)
Handle and defuse conflict
And do it your way
Develop stronger relationships
Even with the most difficult people in your life
This course will help you figure out exactly who you are.
You will be able to handle everyday stress triggers with ease allowing you to tap into your strengths to enjoy more of life.

A Bit About Me
Stress caused me to have 10 years of chronic back pain. I'm now 100% pain-free and able to focus on being the best me for myself and for my family.
I’m a certified Life Coach and Clifton Strengths practitioner on a mission to help women Unlock their Potential & Live Stress (and Pain) Free.
Why…?
Because I spent most of my life being a people-pleasing, perfectionist and control freak. This led to 10 years of chronic back pain, a lot of tears and being a frustrated angry mum. Not once did I consider it was due to stress.
I stumbled upon my life’s passion when I quit my corporate job as Director of Human Resources when our family relocated.
Stepping away from the rat race I retrained as a Strengths Coach. I quickly discovered using my strengths every day significantly impacted the way I would think, feel and act. The stress (and pain) melted away.
And honestly, I became a nicer person.
Knowing how destructive stress can be to families, I now help women around the world discover their unique strengths so they too can find the balance between stressing less and achieving more.
I did it… So can you
What others say about me
Here are just a few of the women who have been through the workshops
It was the best impromptu decision I had made because coaching under Gemma (as cliched as it may sound) changed my life!
Kala Perry
Absolutely brilliant, I have utterly loved getting to understand my strengths and how I can thrive. Gemma has a fantastic ability to bring out the best in you. I would recommend to anyone wholeheartedly. Do it!!
Hermione Warman
I began to find that day to day challenges, small or large, no longer seemed insurmountable. I am able to hone in on my strengths to have control over how I choose to tackle challenges/projects. As a relationship person I also wish I had known about strength training earlier in life!
Mary Prothero
Realizing that my greatest strengths can oftentimes also be triggers to stress was a game-changer.
It's so useful when you see it come to life at home and in the workplace. Really looking forward to the next session...
Steph Hedger
I used to have a lot of burn out at home and I couldn’t figure out why. This gave me an awareness of how my mind reacts the way it does. Helps you navigate your way through life.
Avanthi Colombage
Gemma manages to ask you thought-provoking questions which make you prioritise and process what's important to you. She is professional & friendly. At the end I am always feeling invigorated, refreshed and incredibly motivated
Laura Pardoe
What others say about the workshops...
It's hard to put into words how much I benefited from the strength training with Gemma! I walked away feeling fully ready to approach everything I do in a different way, a more thoughtful way. And now I understand myself in a way like never before. It's invigorating!
This approach had changed my perception of myself and the way that I relate with my daughter. It is a change of perspective and language that opens a new channels of more effective communication
Kate Steen
Catalina Gongora
I wanted a reset button to re-find myself. Gemma helped me accomplish all of this and more. Her positivity and honesty enabled me to move past the trailing spouse, wife, and mom labels. Now, I am using my strengths daily; my family is communicating better and we are having more laughter. This course has been a game-changer in my expatriate life.
Kristen Carpenter
Gemma is a very clear person, practised mom with wonderful examples, who with a dynamic and fun way guides and introduces a new way to relate with our children from love and admiration.
Silvia Restrepo
I used to be self-critical and now I remind myself of my unique strengths and try to approach life from that point of view. I was very impressed with strength training as it focussed on my positives and encouraged me to shift my perspective.
Farizeh Salahuddin
Doing the training in a group environment has really brought it home to me how different peoples characters and strengths are and that actually it’s great to be surrounded by such contrasting and dynamic people.
Thanks again Gemma to leading the way to all the “light bulb” moments!
Jo Evans
I was finally giving myself permission to actually be my Strengths, own them, and stop downplaying them. There were so many "A-ha" moments during the training.
The Group sessions are also invaluable, for giving you insight into the nature of other people's Strengths. Its made me less judgemental, towards both myself and others, hence close relationships of all natures can only benefit.
I have improved my productivity, working relationships with team members and enhanced my work-life balance substantially.
I've also learnt to be aware of my partner's strengths, which are entirely different, and use them to constantly improve our relationship.
