Executive Assistant Coaching for Strategic High-Performing EAs
RiseA is a 6-month personalised coaching program for Executive Assistants who want to move from reactive support to strategic partnership.
Build systems, communication skills, executive presence and strategic capability through 1:1 personalised coaching, templates, SOPs and practical tools.
Coached by an EA with 25+ years of experience supporting C-suite executives
You're more than someone who manages calendars and books flights. You're the person who keeps everything running, anticipates what's needed before it's asked, and makes your executive look good.
But somewhere between the inbox chaos and the endless requests, your own career growth gets pushed aside.
That changes now.
RiseA gives you the coaching, tools and confidence to move from support to strategic partner.
What makes RiseA different?
This isn't a course you work through alone. It's not a generic program designed for everyone and tailored for no one.
It's one on one. Personal. Built around you and where you want to go.
I've spent more than 25 years in the EA profession. I've sat where you're sitting. I know what it feels like to be brilliant at your job and still feel invisible. To know you're capable of more but not quite know how to get there.
That's exactly why I built RiseA.
So whether you're mastering the basics or ready to step into a Chief of Staff role - you won't be doing it alone. You'll have someone genuinely in your corner who has been exactly where you are.
And who knows you can rise.
What changes when we work together:
You find your voice.
No more going blank when someone asks what you do. No more shrinking in rooms where you belong. You'll learn to speak the executive's language, present your ideas with confidence and be seen as the strategic partner you already are - not just the person keeping everything running.You stop winging it and start leading it.
You'll have the tools, templates and systems that the best EAs in the world use every day. The ones that save you hours, protect your executive's time and make you look like you have a superpower. Because you do. You just need the right framework around it.You get a roadmap that's actually yours.
Not a generic six month program. A personalised plan built around where you are, where you want to go and what's been getting in the way. Whether that's stepping into a Chief of Staff role, landing a better opportunity or finally feeling like your career reflects what you're actually capable of - we build it together.You stop doing it alone.
This is the one nobody talks about. Having someone genuinely in your corner. Someone who has been where you are, who understands the grey areas of this role and who you can think out loud with when you're not sure what to do next. No judgement. No generic advice. Just a real conversation with someone who gets it - and who helps you find your own answer.
MEET THE FOUNDER
I created RiseA because I know what it feels like to be the person everyone relies on - the one holding everything together - while quietly putting your own growth last. For years, I was that person. And I know how isolating it can feel.
With over 25 years supporting C‑suite executives, boards, and senior leaders, I’ve lived the reality of high‑pressure, high‑expectation environments. My career has spanned healthcare, medical, hospitality, construction, property, and recruitment - and across every industry, one truth remained constant:
Being an exceptional Executive Assistant is not about managing a calendar. It’s about becoming a strategic partner.
I’ve led office renovations and technical rollouts, coordinated large‑scale events for hundreds of employees, and served as the operational bridge for Board of Directors meetings. I understand the nuance, the emotional intelligence and the precision required to support leaders at the highest level.
And I also understand the weight of it.
Despite the impact EAs have, the role can be deeply isolating. You’re expected to know everything, anticipate everything and hold everything - often without mentorship guidance or a roadmap.
RiseA exists to change that.
RiseA is a 6‑month personalised coaching program designed to help Executive Assistants move from reactive support to confident, strategic partnership.
Through 1:1 coaching, templates, SOPs, communication frameworks and practical tools, I help EAs:
strengthen strategic thinking
build systems that reduce overwhelm
communicate with clarity and confidence
master modern tools (including AI)
elevate their executive partnership
step into leadership without losing themselves
This is the mentorship I wish I had earlier in my career - grounded, calm, practical and deeply supportive.
If you’re ready to rise into the next version of your career - with clarity, confidence and a strategic edge - I’m here to walk that path with you.
Let's rise together.
