The Confidence Quarter

For overwhelmed working mums looking to clear their inner critic and gain clarity, confidence and calming self worth

The cutting-edge 12-week 1:1 coaching programme that meets you where you are, clears what’s been blocking your confidence, and guides you to a place of grounded self belief.

There are limited spaces remaining for The Confidence Quarter round in Autumn/Winter 2025, so read on and apply to secure your space.

Anxious and overwhelmed busy mum, does this sound like you?

Is your lack of confidence holding you back from showing your true value and making real impact?

Are you tired of your critical inner voice making you doubt your ability?

Does your anxiety about work overshadow your enjoyment of home life?

I see you, and I get it.

You’re feeling exhausted because you’re working in overdrive to avoid being seen as not worthy, all on top of hectic mum life.

Maybe you find that overwhelm impacts your ability to access your best thoughts and this only feeds the inner critic who makes you question your ability.

With all that going on, it’s no wonder you’re not taking up opportunities to be more visible, because you don’t feel confident that you can do yourself justice. And that’s so frustrating because you see your more confident peers getting all the recognition!

And then there’s the mum guilt because you know you’re not as present as you want to be at home because you’re distracted by the fear of being caught out at work. 

It’s the cycle I see women trapped in all the time, and it’s one all too close to my heart! Thankfully, there’s a way to break the cycle.

Imagine this instead…

You finally have peace from that inner critic, relief from the mental overwhelm and freedom from those doubts.

You’ve gone from anxious and underconfident to being a level-headed woman who knows her worth, creates impact and feels good about her success.

Your authentic confidence attracts opportunities and you feel empowered to take control of your life.

You’re sought out for your thoughts and perspectives because you have a reputation for adding value. And you’re recognised and rewarded for being authentically you.

Your personal and professional relationships benefit from your deep-rooted sense of self worth and the calm this brings.

And satisfied with your work you can have peace of mind when you choose to switch off and finally feel fully present to enjoy family life.

The Confidence Quarter supports you for 12 weeks to:

Free you of the limiting beliefs that have been blocking your ability to feel authentic confidence

Develop the knowledge and tools you need to free your mind from overwhelm and channel it into your greatest mentor

Connect you with your self worth so you can become an impactful woman who feels worthy of your success

Why trust me to unlock your confidence?

Because I truly get it! 12 years ago, I was a young female leader in a male-dominated environment, in the position to influence marketing strategies at a global level. I could have felt on top of the world but instead I felt burdened by the weight of it.

I became overwhelmed by the pressure and turned to perfectionism to hide my fears of being caught out as not good enough. Desperate to be seen as worthy I took the advice of “fake it till you make it” and became an almost unrecognisable version of myself.

I over-delivered whenever possible and my personal relationships suffered. I was surviving in a cycle of stress, anxiety, imposter syndrome and self-doubt.

Until I found myself again through Cognitive Hypnotherapy. I now enjoy the freedom of true authentic confidence and am fuelled with an unstoppable desire to help my peers achieve the same.

After world-class training at The Quest Institute, in 2016 I launched as a QCH Therapist and Coach and have been supporting amazing women through 1:1 programmes and high-impact workshops ever since.

Oh, and I’m a fellow working mum so I get this inner work needs to fit into your already full life. So mute the class Whatsapp group and send me a message instead!

“Gemma is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and always makes me feel totally comfortable. I always feel I can be honest because I trust her completely.
While in many ways the way I can engage with Gemma in our sessions is like having a conversation with a friend, she will effortlessly coach me in such a competent and professional way, steering the conversation such that I leave every session feeling that I have achieved something and am one step closer to my goal.
Gemma helps guide me to my own solutions. She provides me with the space to work through my thoughts in different ways to enable me to find the right solution.
I’ve worked with a number of coaches, both at work, and in my personal life, but Gemma is the one I keep going back to.”

Is The Confidence Quarter right for you?

The Confidence Quarter is for you if…

You’re an anxious or stressed-out working mum who feels a lack of confidence is impacting your potential and overall wellbeing.

You are overly critical of yourself and rarely take a moment to reflect on your achievements. You’re ambitious and skilled but also under supported and your self-doubt is limiting your impact.

Perfectionist tendencies also leave you teetering on the edge of burnout.

If that feels like you then this programme has been designed for you.

The following also has to be true for us to work together:

  • You believe you have the potential to be a confident woman given the right therapeutic support (even if your inner critic currently tells you otherwise!)
  • You have the drive to take action and make changes to achieve the freedom of authentic confidence
  • You are prepared to be open-minded and to dedicate time to this transformation
  • You are ready to put down the burdens you’ve been carrying around as a result of your self doubt
  • You can see that something has to change if you want to feel differently
  • You don’t have a history of epilepsy or psychosis (as these are contraindications of the hypnotherapy techniques we are likely to draw on in the programme)

So, I have just one more question for you, are you ready to experience the calming effects of authentic confidence?!

Flexible payment options

When you’re ready to book on to The Confidence Quarter, you can choose the investment type that works best for you.

3 x monthly payments of £410

or

1 up-front payment of £1,100 (saving you £130)

The next round of Confidence Quarters runs Autumn to Winter 2025. Will you take one of the few remaining spaces? Just imagine how different you could feel by the time New Year comes around.
