Becoming HER VIP Strategy Day

One day. The clarity you've been circling for months.

You know what's in the way. You've known for a while. What you haven't had is a full day — held, structured, and entirely yours — to move through it.

This is that day.

Who this is for

You're senior. You've built something real. And right now, something specific is asking for your attention — a decision you keep circling, a pattern that's showing up in a new suit, a role that's bigger than the version of yourself you've been leading from.

You don't need six months. You need one day where the noise stops and the real work begins.

The women who come to this day are typically navigating one of these moments:

  • A promotion that arrived before they felt ready.
  • A ceiling that won't move despite everything they've tried.
  • A decision between two paths, both of which make sense on paper.
  • A version of their leadership they know isn't fully theirs yet.
  • A new role where the old strategies have quietly stopped working.

If you recognise yourself here, this day was built for you.

What happens

A held crossing. Not a power session.

This isn't about cramming six months into one day. It's about going deep on what matters most right now, in a container that holds both the clearing and the building.

Four blocks. One break. One day that initiates what needs to move.

Block 1

01

90 minutes

Vision Morning

We start by meeting HER — the version of you this moment is asking for.

Where are you actually going? What does leadership look like when it's fully yours? What does this next chapter need from you that the last one didn't?

Most senior women have a clear career trajectory and a blurry personal vision. This block separates the two. You leave with a clear picture of who you're becoming — which becomes the compass for everything that follows in the day.

Integration break

02

Part of the work

90-minute break

This is not optional. It is part of the work.

You walk, journal, eat, breathe. The morning settles. What surfaced in block 1 begins to integrate before we go deeper. I rest. A Manifestor working at full presence between initiations needs this as much as you do.

Block 2

03

90 minutes

Saboteur Work Afternoon

Now we know where you're going, we can see clearly what's in the way.

At this level, the saboteur is sophisticated. It doesn't look like imposter syndrome anymore. It looks like needing more information before deciding. Like not wanting to disappoint the board. Like doing it yourself because it's faster. Like a standard that protects quality but quietly exhausts everything else.

We go to the root. Identify what's running. Negotiate a new agreement between the parts of you that want to rise and the parts trained to stay safe.

You leave lighter, with your power back.

Block 3

04

90 minutes

Strategic Workload Allocation Afternoon

This is the block that makes this day different from any other coaching experience.

You don't have a purpose problem. You have an allocation problem. Your time, your energy, your attention — where are they actually going versus where your vision needs them?

This block is strategic and practical: what do you stop? What do you delegate? What do you protect? What gets your full presence and what gets a system?

You leave with a real map — not a feeling of clarity, but an actual plan for where you spend yourself from here.

Closing

05

15 to 20 minutes

Integration and Anchoring

What did today surface? What's the 90-day commitment? What do you tell yourself when the old pattern shows up again in two weeks — because it will, briefly?

We close the container deliberately. The day ends. The crossing continues.

What's included

Before the day

A 45-minute pre-call. We map the landscape — what's live, what's stuck, what this day needs to hold. So we don't spend the morning warming up.

The day itself

Four 90-minute blocks with a 90-minute integration break. In person, fully present, entirely yours. No templates. No curriculum. Built around what's real for you right now.

Two months after

A 60-minute follow-up session. We check what held, what shifted in the environment, and what needs attention as the new version of you meets the real world.

Investment

€2,800

Available in Amsterdam and Dublin. Other cities by arrangement — travel costs added at cost, no margin.

Including VAT as a personal investment. Excluding VAT when sponsored by your organisation.

Most women have this sponsored through their company's development budget, learning and development allocation, or executive coaching budget. It invoices as a single line, straightforward to approve.

This is not a shortcut

One day doesn't complete the Becoming HER process. It initiates the crossing.

You won't leave transformed — you'll leave mid-crossing, with the tether to the old shore loosened, the direction clear, and the energy to take the next step.

The work continues after the day. That's not a limitation. That's how identity-level change actually works.

This day sits alongside those programmes, not instead of them.

What women say about working with Isabel

Depth, clarity, and the quality of presence this work asks for.

Isabel has a sharp ability to cut through noise and get to what really matters. Her guidance went beyond reflection — it strengthened how I approach my career and the decisions I make.

Leticia BuenoLegal Counsel, Financial Services Regulation · Netherlands

The work I did with Isabel was deep. It reached all the way to my core beliefs. She helped me lift the self-sabotaging veil I hadn't even realised was there.

Carolina JimenezDecarbonisation & Circular Economy Lead · Netherlands

Her coaching helped me gain much greater clarity on my long-term vision. I learned to trust my own voice, make decisions with more confidence, and set healthy, sustainable boundaries.

Your guide

I'm Isabel. I go all in, and I don't stop at the surface.

I thrive in holding polarities: strategic and intuitive, spiritual and practical. I bring both to every session, and I will model that while supporting you to bring your own.

I will name what I see, especially where you're playing smaller than you are. And I won't stop there. I will support you in building the muscles you need, with courage and compassion, because that's how real change actually moves.
