The people carrying the most responsibility are often the least likely to talk about what is actually going on. On the outside, they continue delivering. Behind that, many are navigating constant pressure, overthinking, chronic stress, burnout, and the feeling that no matter how much they achieve, it never quite feels like enough.
I work with organisations across banking, Big Tech, Big 4, law, consulting, venture capital, family offices, government-linked entities, and startup ecosystems to support the performance and wellbeing of their founders, senior leaders, and teams.
This is not a standard wellbeing programme. It is high-performance coaching delivered through The Devine Method®, a proprietary framework that combines evidence-based psychological principles and tools, high-performance coaching, and mindfulness. Tailored to you, your team, and the specific environment you are operating in.
Corporate clients include BDO London.
Corporates across banking, Big Tech, AI companies, Big 4, law, and consulting
Venture capital firms and family offices
Government-linked entities across the GCC and UK
Startup ecosystems and accelerator programmes

Advisory
STARTUP ADVISORY
Sitting on an advisory board or working as a named advisor to a startup, providing regular input on founder psychology, team performance, and building a psychologically healthy culture as the company scales.
Being a retained advisor to a VC firm or family office, advising on portfolio founder wellbeing, running workshops for portfolio companies, and being available as a trusted resource for founders across their ecosystem.
VC AND FAMILY OFFICE ADVISORY
Advising HR directors, People teams, and C-suite on performance and wellbeing strategy, including the approach, the frameworks, and what genuinely works. Particularly valuable for organisations building internal programmes.
CORPORATE ADVISORY

GOVERNMENT ADVISORY
Serving as a named psychological advisor to a publication or media brand, providing expert commentary and reviewing content for accuracy.
MEDIA ADVISORY
Most founders are pushing hard every day, pitching to investors, building their product, managing their team, while privately carrying stress, self-doubt, and pressure that rarely gets talked about.
Just as elite athletes invest in mental conditioning, the most successful founders invest in the inner game.
The way founders think, lead, make decisions, and handle pressure inevitably affects the businesses they are building. Supporting founder wellbeing and performance is often one of the most overlooked investments within any ecosystem.
I work within startup ecosystems and accelerator programmes across the GCC, the UK, and the US, supporting founders and teams through the realities of early-stage building.
This can include private 1:1 coaching for individual founders, group workshops for cohorts, and bespoke partnerships with accelerators and ecosystem partners looking to genuinely support their founders in a way that creates lasting change.
Previous work includes Startup Grind Doha, The Inner Game of Building a Startup, featured in Gulf Times Qatar and Business Leaders ME.
Startups and Accelerator Programmes
I partner with hotels, private members clubs, luxury wellness spaces, and high-end fitness brands across London and the GCC to offer discreet, high-calibre coaching and support.
The people who stay at, train at, and belong to these spaces are often the same people I work with privately. Founders, executives, athletes, and high performers who want support that actually understands their world and delivers real results.
Previous partnerships include Heartcore, London.
Open to partnerships across London, Dubai, and the GCC.

"The change we have seen individually and as a team and company is remarkable"...
"We first engaged Lorna having never had any coaching personally or as a business. All staff at all levels were able to communicate with each other fully and openly discuss stress at all levels and possibly most importantly, understand job roles and the individual stresses they faced. The change we have seen individually and as a team and company is remarkable. We seem to naturally be able to communicate openly on an everyday basis. We have seen such a change in the company and the individuals therein that we have further instructed Lorna and retained her services for another 6 months to assist us with business coaching. This was not something we expected to come out of these sessions as we were only dealing with stress but as we found it provided clarity, we thought we would press ahead. I cannot express how much this journey has been worth it. It has been worth EVERY penny. The cost v reward benefit is ridiculously good. Don't think about it twice. Book her services, not only will you not regret it, you will want her on your books going forward."
– Managing Partner, International Law Firm, London
"Everyone left the session edified and fortified"...
As a team leader with employees from around the world under near non-stop intense pressure, top of mind is my team's wellbeing. I needed help, and had them all in one place for a few hours. Fortunately, Lorna was available to come and lead an absolutely amazing coaching session on wellbeing and stress management. Lorna's tone and approach were perfect, and everyone left the session edified and fortified.
Vice President Finance, Tech Company, US
This work is designed for the organisations, firms, and ecosystems that understand performance and wellbeing are deeply connected. For the VC firms and family offices whose founders are carrying far more pressure than most people around them realise. For the corporates and government-linked entities whose best people are delivering at a high level while privately carrying more than anyone sees. For the accelerators and startup ecosystems that want to genuinely support their founders.
