Work with me
What does this business need, and what does the person leading it need? Everything below answers both — some from the strategy side, some from the capacity side.
How it works
Every offering below starts with the same thing: a real conversation about where you are, what you're carrying, and what needs to change. The frameworks come after the human connection.
One-to-one work on clarity, decision-making and sustainable performance.
For senior leaders carrying complexity: the pressure that doesn't get talked about, the decisions no one else can make, the behaviour that helped you get here and is now in the way.
Reliable, embedded HR coverage — a set number of days or hours a month, without a full-time hire.
A semi-ongoing HR function for your business. I show up regularly, run the day-to-day people machinery, and become the person your managers turn to when an HR question lands on their desk. Best for SMEs that need reliable HR coverage but don't need a full-time HR director.

Enquire about fractional hr supportStrategic, project-based HR advice — a plan, a fix or a framework, delivered as expert guidance.
Consultant-led rather than embedded: I come in for a specific goal or question, bring twenty years of senior HR experience across industries, and leave you with something you can act on. Best for businesses that need a plan, a fix or a framework, rather than ongoing HR execution.

Enquire about hr consultancyA curated peer advisory community for Lisbon-based founders, operators and leaders.
Monthly roundtables and 90-day planning with a small, confidential group of experienced leaders. Depth over networking. By application.
Nervous-system regulation as a leadership tool — one-to-one, in groups, in the workplace, or through a self-paced online course.
Breath is not a side practice here — it's how the container gets refilled. Sessions are practical, paced to you, and always in service of how you lead and live. An online course is also available for self-paced practice.
I also partner with studios, wellness spaces and retreat venues to bring immersive 9D breathwork journeys to their calendars. See venue partnerships

Not sure which
Most people arrive knowing something needs to change and not which door to use. A first conversation sorts that out quickly.
