You didn’t build all this to live in a gilded cage

For 45+ female founders, CEOs and NEDs whose bodies, marriages and businesses are in quiet revolt against the life they built.

For women who’ve quietly outgrown their own success

If you’re done with grind, over-functioning and flat “success” and ready to lead from your lineage, land and true power; this is the work we do together, with horses and systemic constellations as our mirrors.

You’ve built the business, the boards, the family. Money is fine, the numbers stack.

But your body, marriage and work are all whispering the same thing, it can’t go on like this.


This is for you if:

  • You’re a 45+ founder, CEO, NED or seasoned practitioner who other people lean on and you’re tired of being the only adult in the room.

  • You fantasise about burning it all down more often than you’d admit in a board meeting.

  • You crave land, animals, horses, space, but your calendar still reads like a grid of Zoom and travel.

  • Your marriage or relationship is running on old patterns: you soften, he freezes, you snap back into competence.

  • You’ve done the therapy, the coaching, the masterminds and can talk about your patterns perfectly, but your nervous system still hasn’t exhaled.

  • Money feels flattened into duty: school fees, mortgages, parents, payroll, with very little joy.

If your whole body recognises itself here, you’re in the right place.

You’re done optimising.

You’ve mastered the hustle, the masterminds, the “fine” that’s flattened into duty: school fees, mortgages, ageing parents, payroll.

Joy? Not much.

But your ancestors - especially the women - didn’t endure silence, smallness or severance so you could inherit a gilded cage.

The land remembers.
The horses sense it.
Your body is the bridge you’re seeking; for yourself, your children and the people you serve.

In these containers you’ll find:

  • Lineage Reclamation
    Untangle the unseen threads; the mother- and father-wounds, the unclaimed gifts, the generational grief, rage and bondage, so you lead from coherence, not compensation or repetition.

  • Nervous System Reset
    From override to exhale. We map the somatic signals your body’s been sending (that dread before the next call? It’s intel, not failure) and build a life your system can actually live in.

  • Land & Horse Mirrors
    When words fall short. Horses reflect your boundaries, your true, embodied power and your belonging; raw, immediate, transformative.

  • Embodied Strategy
    Rewire your model to fit how you want to live: fewer meetings, more mornings in the mist. Legacy as medicine; not martyrdom, not extraction.


The result?

  • Decisions that feel like home.

  • Clients who align, not drain.

  • Husbands who lead.

  • Children who honour.

  • Communities that hold you to your standard, not your performance.

A life where “success” includes dawn walks, intentional investment and the knowing you’re the torch-bearer your lineage raised you to be.


The world doesn’t need another purpose-driven leader. It needs leaders brave enough to marry their purpose with their genius - and skilled enough to make that combination systemically powerful.

The women this is for

(If this is you, your body knows)

  • 40/45+ founders, ceos & non-exec directors in quiet rebellion.

  • High-achievers whose “fine” now feels like flatlined joy.

  • Women haunted by “What if this is it?”

  • Leaders who are ready for depth. No more surface hacks. This is ancestral, somatic, systemic, elemental.

If your whole body nods, you’re in the right place.

What this work feels like from the inside

The women quoted below are 45+ founders, CEOs, NEDs and senior practitioners who were holding complex lives'; teams, boards, clients, families and needed somewhere they could be held with the same precision.

We came into this work as a leadership team, new to systemic constellations. What struck me was how safe and precise the container felt.

Even early on, I could clearly see the benefits both individually and collectively; in how we make decisions, how we see each other and how we hold the business.
— Steph wilson, ceo, sk chase, uk
For the first time in decades, I finally feel comfortable in my own skin – clear on who I am and what’s next, both in my life and in my work.

I came to Harriet at a time when I had very little faith left – in people, in myself, in the path I’d chosen.

She reminded me I am not alone, that I can open myself to others and not be afraid; that I can have boundaries and it’s okay – it actually feels cleaner and truer.

Watching how consistently and gently she held so many of us, for so many hours, was truly inspiring. It left me hopeful again at a time I needed it most.

She reminds me that the work is never done – and more importantly, that it can be done with grace.

Working with Harriet is a leap worth taking if you’re used to being the one who holds it all together. She is wise, empathetic and patient – and at the same time a clear voice of authority, guided by her values and extraordinary gifts.

I would recommend her to any woman who is ready for a level of depth and clarity that standard coaching simply doesn’t touch.
