Start backing yourself.
Stop playing small.
You’re capable, responsible, and outwardly successful — yet beneath it all, fear is quietly shaping your decisions.
Many business owners and executive women want to make a bigger impact, but feel held back by imposter syndrome, self-doubt, or the constant pressure to get it right.
​
I work with women who are ready to move past fear-based decision-making and reconnect with their creative, grounded authority — so they can lead, decide, and grow without burning out or playing small.
From Safe Choices to Bold Action
You’re highly capable, intelligent, and used to holding things together — yet beneath that competence sits a familiar fear:
​
“Who am I to do this?”
“What if I fail?"
“Maybe I should wait until I’m more ready”
​
Fear, self-doubt, or the pressure to “get it right” can quietly shape even the most capable women’s decisions. I want to help you to beyond fear-based thinking and reconnect with that quiet inner voice that desperately wants to be heard.
How It Works.
Guided visualisation taps into the part of your brain that doesn’t feel fear — the creative, problem-solving, and insight-generating part. By combining this with executive coaching, we:
​
-
Step back from the problem – Create a mental space where fear doesn’t dominate decisions.
-
Access bold ideas and clarity – The creative brain allows new solutions and perspectives to emerge.
-
Reconnect with your inner authority – You can hear and trust the quiet voice that knows what’s right for you.
In practice, this means you’re not just talking about fear or trying to force confidence — you’re experiencing a shift in how your brain responds, making decisions feel natural, inspired, and aligned.
The results:
-
You feel calmer and more grounded, even under pressure
-
You trust your decisions and stop second-guessing yourself
-
Your life and work begin to feel like they belong to you again
Why Me?
Hi, I’m Rachael.
Create Yourself Coaching grew out of my own experience of playing small — not because I wasn’t capable, but because fear was quietly running the system.
​
From the outside, my life worked. Inside, it felt increasingly out of alignment. I was competent, responsible, and constantly holding things together — while slowly disconnecting from myself.
​
I also got stuck in a familiar cycle: waiting to feel ready.
Believing the next course, book, or qualification would finally give me the confidence to play bigger.
​
It never did.
The fear didn’t go away.
​
What changed everything was finding another way — one that didn’t rely on forcing confidence, but on moving beyond fear altogether. When fear stepped aside, clarity, creativity, and self-trust returned.
​
That’s the work I now offer.
And it’s why Create Yourself Coaching exists.
