“You’re too passionate.”

I was told that once by a line manager.

Too passionate.

I remember thinking…

WTF? Is that actually meant to be criticism?

Because if I’m not passionate about what I’m doing, that’s when you need to worry.

Today I started with a new Stop Being Stuck client.
She’s also going to be a case study for my Master Practitioner.

And she is READY.

Ready to look at the stuff most people spend years avoiding.
Ready to feel uncomfortable.
Ready to stop pretending she doesn’t know what she already knows.

And I’ll be honest - I felt nervous this morning.

I always feel a bit nervous when I start with someone new.
Even now.
Even as a multi-award-winning coach.

Not because I doubt what I’m doing.
But because I care.

I care about getting it right.
I care about the depth.
I care that this isn’t just a nice chat - it’s proper identity-level work.

The nerves aren’t a red flag.
They’re a sign I’m invested.

And actually… I hope they never fully go away.

Because I’ve been in the opposite place.

There was a point, towards the end of my pharmacy career, where the passion had drained out of me. The energy wasn’t there. My heart wasn’t in it.

That scared me far more than any pre-session nerves ever have.

So yes - I still get that flutter.
I still want to do a bloody good job.
I still feel the responsibility when someone trusts me with their patterns, their stuckness, their truth.

And long may that continue.

If that makes me “too passionate”…

Good.

Unmasked starts tonight. And I’m super excited! 🥳
And yes… there’s still time to join (if you’re really really quick).

Because I keep hearing:
“I’ll do this later, when things calm down.”

But patterns don’t pause just because life is busy.
They quietly decide for us.

Unmasked begins this evening.

It’s for women who are done letting old strategies run the show - the ones that once helped… but now just exhaust.

If you know something needs to change, this is your window.

Not dramatic.
Not chaotic.
Just honest.

Message me now if you want the details before we begin.

We start at 7pm!

Hey lovely people, I realised I’ve recently got a lot of new faces around here, so I wanted to properly re-introduce myself.

I’m Helena, The Pattern Breaker.

I help high-functioning, capable humans stop feeling stuck, break the unconscious patterns that hold them back, and step fully into their own truth - whatever that looks like for them.

Life update time…

I just won my second award last week (yes, second!!) - National Transformational Coach of the Year 2025 at the The National Coaching Conference & National Coaching Awards 🏆🥳

Which was flipping amazing!

But what’s lighting me up even more is my new focus…

Helping female founders reconnect with their spark, their creativity, their “inner Tigger”🐯 - that joyful, unstoppable, curious energy you sometimes forget you have.

At home, life is full of love, chaos, and laughter: raising my incredible kids, balancing work, family, and life while my partner is off traveling for work, and being bossed around by Poppy, my very stubborn Schnoodle who insists she’s CEO of walks, cuddles and treatos, and consulting with Jimbo, our unofficial finance director. 🐾

So my mission is simple…

Help women in business uncover what’s been dimming their light, get un-stuck, and rediscover the part of themselves that loves life, feels free, and knows they can make bold choices without burning out.

Fun fact: I love tea, mini eggs (especially the last one!), and bouncing through life with my messy, joyful, Tigger-like energy - human, real, unstoppable.

For those who’ve been here a while, thank you for sticking around.

For the new folks: welcome to the Tigger corner of life! ✨

Message me if you want the details.

Remember who the f&£k you are…

Words said to me by the most amazing coach, who I met at the Female Founders Rise conference this Tuesday!

She was one of a few amazing women I met that day reminded me of who I am and what I am capable of..

Fast forward to yesterday..

The The National Coaching Conference & National Coaching Awards where I was finalist in the Transformational Coach of the year award.

What a flipping amazing day of connection, authenticity and love…

I barely took any photos because I was enjoying every single moment, in the moment..

Some absolutely phenomenal speakers and the opportunity to catch up with some of my fabulous coaching buddies and meet some new friend.

Thank you to the most awesome Team Paseda for the what was an incredible day! 💚

And then, the best bit…

I ONLY BLOODY WON!!!!! 🏆

And in true me style, I cried my eyes out!!

THIS was the boost I needed to know that, yet again, I am moving in the direction I am meant to!

And I am doing it with more confidence, drive and love than ever before!

Thank you to everyone who has believed in me and supported me in my journey, including my wonderful family, friends and, of course my clients!

I couldn’t have done it without you! 🥰

Now I am off to sleep as I am shattered after all the excitement of a wicked week!!

Whoop!!

Today I’m heading to the Female Founders Rise Summit at Cardiff Business School.

Cardiff.

The city I only ever associate with my “past life” as a pharmacist.

And yet… here I am.

Feeling like this is a weird, perfect pivot moment - officially letting go of the last bits of pharmacist, fully stepping into the coach.

I won’t lie - I’m really nervous.

This feels like a big shift. But it’s also exciting.

A friend reminded me: “Helena, you’re not just a brilliant coach. You’re a female founder too.” And that hit me.

So I’ve been quietly exploring this space for a little while now, and today feels like a first “official” step into working with female founders.

Me. Nervous. Messy. Ready. A founder.

Showing up with all the glorious chaos of my life - career changes, motherhood, divorce, new relationships, grief, breaking patterns, rediscovering myself, learning that earned worth is a myth… and yes, a little bit of spirituality thrown in.

All of that?

That’s what I can offer female founders: helping them rediscover the real version of themselves, so they can continue to run their business as themselves - fully, authentically, and with freedom and joy - without me giving them business advice.

We don’t have to keep playing small.

We can take our life and our business, and actually love both.

We survived January and February is finally here.

But if you’re still sat there thinking
I can’t do another year like this – something needs to change
- this is for you…⬇️⬇️

You weren’t the messy one.
You were the capable one.

The one who kept it together.
Read the room.
Did what needed doing.

And now?
That same strategy is quietly costing you.

Your business or career works.
Your life looks “successful”.

But inside…
Decisions feel heavy and hard.
Rest feels risky and guilt-ridden.
And slowing down feels strangely unsafe.

I was at a networking event recently and someone asked what I do.
After I explained, he said:
“So you work with people who look like they’ve got the perfect life… but inside feel like they’re barely holding it together?”

And I thought - yes. Exactly that.

Because you’re not broken.
You’re just running old survival strategies
in a life that’s outgrown them.

That’s why I created Unmasked.
It’s a 6-session group experience for women who are done performing.
Done pretending.
Done holding everyone else together while quietly burning out.

This isn’t mindset fluff.
Not pep talks.
Not “just be more confident”.

It’s identity-level work.
Nervous-system informed.
Deep. Real. Human.

Unmasked starts Thursday 12 February at 7pm.
6 x 90-minute live Zoom sessions.
£250 intro price.
Payment plan available.
Everything is recorded.

If that opening line hit a little too close to home, message me and I’ll send you the details.

THIS is where pretending stops.
And something more honest begins.

I LOVE walking my dog, Poppy…

But I HATE getting up in the morning to do it…

It’s cold.
It’s dark.
It’s wet.
It’s really muddy.

And to top it off, it seems my walking boots have started to leak, so today I had soaking wet feet.

But I KNOW it does me good to get up early and take her for a walk.

It’s so flipping hard to drag myself out of my warm cosy bed, but I’ll be honest I do feel better for getting out and about early and starting my day with something positive - even though part of me (probably my inner teenager) doesn’t agree with that!!

It gets me going, and stops me from going on my phone first thing in the morning too!

So added bonus!

And I know there is a whole science behind why it’s good to make yourself do the hard things, but it’s too early to explain it!

So instead I’ll just ask, what things do you hate doing but do them anyway because you know they’re secretly good for you!?

Time to give back…

I spent a few hours today supporting a lovely group of parents and carers of SEN kids, courtesy of Citisen 4u..

We talked about overwhelm, stress and how it affects our nervous system..

We got curious about what we put on our “plates” - the things we have to do, our worries, our emotions and even explored things that we put on our “plates” that were never meant to be there in the first place!

We then explored all the things we would like to have on our “plates” that support and steady us!

And there was a spark difference!

So to help calm the nervous system so we can cope with all the things on our plates, we learnt some easy tools which we can use every day…

💜Breathing Techniques
💜Self-Havening
💜Heart-Mind Coherence Meditation

Simple tools that don’t need any extra equipment, just a little time and commitment to bring just one or two into their daily activities!

It was such a pleasure to support and spend time with these amazing people, who are juggling so many balls.

Thank you for inviting me! 💜
