Exhausted? Stuck? You’re in the right place
Senior leaders face a unique set of challenges. From the outside, it can seem like you have it all together. But inside, you just know you’re not being true to yourself. Attempting to achieve our way to a sense of enough-ness is exhausting. And since you’re here right now, perhaps this never-ending chase is beginning to take a heavy toll.
You have an insatiable thirst for achievement and success, but as you’re learning – no amount of external validation will ever be enough. Why? Because enough-ness is something we recognise – not something we achieve. As your authentic leadership coach, I’m here to help you do that.
Love who you’re being (not just what you do)
Too many senior leaders are stuck going through the motions. They know they want to feel inspired and be inspiring, but deep down, they’re unclear about the type of leader they need to be. This mismatch between being the leader you should be rather than the leader you are can result in a gruelling cycle of self-betrayal. You feel like your purpose and passion have been abandoned, and you’re a shell of who you once were (or who you know you could be). But all is not lost…
Through self-discovery and awareness, you can reconnect to your core self at work and in life. Not by changing who you are but by being who you are. My coaching offerings are designed around this process – guiding you off the hamster wheel of self-betrayal to an empowered state of self-fidelity.
Access the transformative support you need
My coaching packages guide you on the journey from self-betrayal to self-fidelity. During our private leadership coaching sessions, you’ll be able to openly and honestly discuss where you are and where you want to be in work and life. Our sessions will take your level of self-awareness to a whole new level, and ultimately support you to reconnect with who you truly are.

Your leadership coaching questions answered
Who is Illuminate and Elevate for?
Illuminate and Elevate are for big-hearted busy leaders who:
- Feel like a pretender or imposter in their work or life.
- Have been told by colleagues they’re not being themselves.
- Are betraying who they authentically are to ‘fit in’.
- Rely too much on external validation.
- Are tired and can’t keep working like this.
I work with mid to senior leaders from a range of organisations.
How are you different from other leadership coaches in Melbourne?
Put simply, I’ve been in your shoes. Having worked in the corporate world and held senior leadership roles for major organisations, I know what it’s like to not like who you’re being at work, and to know that the way you are working is unsustainable. I also know that it is possible to reconnect to your true self and experience authentic empowerment. My mission is to help leaders like you overcome this challenging (often soul-crushing) experience of betraying their true nature at work.
Do you work with leaders outside of Melbourne or Australia?
Yes. Most of my coaching sessions are delivered via virtual video conferencing, so your location is not a barrier.
Have another question about my leadership coaching?
I’d be happy to answer your questions. Simply book a call to learn more or email me on cassandra@self-fidelity.com.
What other ways can you practise being true to yourself?
Ready to honour who you truly are?
Your current feelings of overwhelm, loneliness, and emptiness are not obligatory components of holding a senior leadership role. Instead, they can be warning signs that you’ve lost connection to your true self. No matter how far you have drifted away from who you really are, you can take steps back towards the true you.
True transformation comes from within. As your leadership coach, my purpose is to help you transform your relationship with yourself and others.
I invite you to book your discovery call and begin your journey back to honouring who you authentically are.
