Coaching with Lucy
This is a highly personalized 1:1 coaching container for high-achieving women who are sick of freezing under pressure.
If you're done staying quiet in meetings, avoiding interviews, and holding back in negotiations and presentations and you're ready to finally show up as the confident, capable version of yourself you know is in there, this is for you.
Using EMDR-informed coaching and somatic tools, I work directly with the nervous system response that takes over under pressure, so you can finally say what you want to say in the moments that matter most.
You’re Not A Shy Person
You connect easily with people. You express yourself well.
But whenever you're in a meeting, a presentation, or a high-stakes situation…
Something in you freezes.
Your heart beats out of your chest.
You stumble over your words.
And your mind goes blank.
For years, you learned how to work around this pattern.
You avoided raising your hand in big meetings.
You turned down opportunities to present.
You stopped interviewing because you were afraid of how your body would react.
But lately, you’re tired of letting fear run your decisions.
And you’re sick of playing small.
There are roles you want to apply for.
Perspectives you want to share.
And rooms you know you’re meant to be in.
You worry that if this keeps happening, you’ll never fully step into the level of leadership you know you’re capable of.
If this sounds like you, know that this reaction under pressure isn’t who you are.
And it’s not something that you have to live with.
It’s a nervous system response that gets activated under pressure and it’s something that can be worked with at the root.
What makes Lucy’s Coaching unique?
Most performance coaches focus heavily on mindset work:
“Push through the fear, lean in, take action before you feel ready." And while that can sometimes be helpful, it often creates more shame.
Because you've probably tried some version of that already.
You've told yourself to just be brave. Come extra prepared.
But the moment the pressure hits, it doesn't work.
And that's not because you're doing anything wrong or that you aren’t trying hard enough.
It's because the fear of speaking up doesn't live in your mind. It lives in your body.
In those moments, your body is what decides:
Whether it feels safe to speak
Whether it feels safe to be seen
Whether you can stay present under pressure
You can't outthink a body that doesn't feel safe.
That's why this work goes deeper.
With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist working with performance pressure, I understand what's happening underneath the surface when you shut down.
Instead of trying to override the response…
We work with it, so you’re shifting the internal response that gets activated in those moments.
So you're not forcing confidence. You're shifting the internal response that gets activated in those moments.
And that's what actually changes how you show up.
