When the voice and the vision on the inside become louder than all the opinions on the outside you have begun to master your life.

Holistic Coaching & Mentoring for Women

Self-development at its best

Are you pouring everything into work and family, only to find there’s nothing left for you? Do you feel drained, stressed and unhappy even though there is lots to be grateful for?

You are not alone.

Without a doubt, the single greatest gift you can give yourself is learning how to get back on track, make empowered decisions and take action on what you truly desire.

Whether you’re looking to shift your mindset, seek inner peace or reignite your spark, having a coach and mentor at your side can be incredibly rewarding.

Balancing your personal dreams with the needs of those you cherish adds depth to the coaching experience, creating lasting change.

Gaining Clarity

But maybe you don’t know yet what it is you want. All you know is that the life you are leading right now is not bringing the joy and fulfillment you hoped for.

Maybe you just don’t know where to start.

Maybe you have so many ideas that you are stuck in analysis-paralysis and unable to move forward.

Maybe you are so busy and overwhelmed never make time for what truly matters to you.

Maybe you simply feel stuck in a rut and you don’t know how to shift out of it.

There are many women out there who feel exactly the same. Together we will uncover what’s truly important, guiding you toward a life aligned with your true values and purpose.

“Uschi helped me articulate a vision of balance, take achievable steps, and feel grounded again. I now dedicate time to things I love, just for fun. I feel energised, inspired, and excited about what will unfold next.”

- Meg S., June 2025

How I work

I offer a safe space for personal growth, mindset shifts and meaningful change. Drawing on insights from neuroscience and the wisdom of ancient shamanic and yogic traditions, I am able to help you move past limiting beliefs, build confidence, and create a life that feels true to you.

Each session is shaped around what you need—whether that’s guided reflection, mindfulness practices, transformational processes, practical strategies, or simply a listening ear.

You’ll experience:

A safe, non-judgmental space to reflect and explore
Honest questions that gently uncover what’s underneath the surface
Practical support and accountability for meaningful change
The option to receive massage therapy alongside coaching sessions
Many women find this combination deeply effective—supporting not just the mental or emotional layers, but also the physical tension or exhaustion that’s built up over time.

Ready for a Change?

If you’re craving change, but aren’t sure where to start, I offer three simple options:

From Tired to True (6 sessions)
This is the heart of my coaching work. A powerful, structured journey that gives you time and space to peel back the layers, listen to what your body and heart are really telling you, and make changes that last. Together we uncover what truly matters, release what's been keeping you stuck, and support you to live in a way that feels more balanced, energised, and deeply aligned.
The Turning Point (3 sessions)
A short, focused series to help you pause and check in with yourself. We’ll clear the mental clutter, reconnect with your direction, and begin taking steps that feel grounded and doable. Ideal if you’re standing at a turning point, looking for inner clarity and meaningful action aligned with your values.
A Heartfelt Mindset Reset (a one-off session)
A spacious single session to help you breathe, reflect and tune into your heart. We’ll explore what’s on your mind, align with your values, and gently shift the inner dialogue to support your next steps. Whether you need clarity on a current challenge, shift your mindset, or need help taking the first steps, I’ll meet you where you’re at.

Sessions are available in-person or online and typically last 75 - 90 minutes.

“It feels like she has this bag of tricks she pulls from at just the right moment—except they’re not tricks, but practical tools that help release the old and welcome in the new. I came away feeling more content, more myself, and with real progress toward goals I’d been sitting on for too long.”

“The best result for me personally is feeling better in my own skin, more content, happier and with healthier thought patterns, but Uschi has also helped me set and achieve some very practical goals, like organising a workshop and diving into long term business development plans.”

Meg Stephenson, June 2025

“I came to Uschi because I was feeling a lack of balance in my life with a huge focus on work and family, where I put all of my time and energy, and not much else . This was leaving me drained, stressed and unhappy. I was neglecting all my other interests and, in truth, neglecting myself.

Through a combination of coaching and massage Uschi helped me articulate and describe a vision of what balance would look like in my life, focus in on achievable steps that would take me towards that vision and think practically about actions to take. Uschi is warm, authentic, an attentive listener and very practical in her approach to coaching. She seems to have a gift in being able to support you to connect with your spirit while staying grounded and safe. She helped me focus in on what I needed and implement some permanent change in my life.”

Noa, February 2025

“I am happily surprised and impressed to report that intensity is not there at the moment, when I think of the traumatic event it is memory of something I don’t like but I can actually look at it, think about it and use it as a learning experience rather than a Trauma - something that every time I briefly think of, I feel sick and have to move away mentally and physically from.
I’m curious to see what learning would emerge now that I’m not scared to look.”

Steph Evangelinos, Australia, April 22

“Working with Uschi gave me a much deeper impact than I was expecting. I just thought I had procrastination and analysis paralysis but she introduced me to incredible processes that really got to the root of why I wasn’t showing up to my life and my business at the level I wanted to. … I would not be anywhere near where I am now if it wasn’t for working with Uschi.”

Q & A

How does holistic coaching work?

Coaching with me is a collaborative process where we explore what’s holding you back and uncover ways to move forward with clarity and confidence. I use neuroscience-based techniques, breathwork, and reflective practices to help you navigate life’s challenges and transitions, ensuring that the changes you make align with your values and support your whole being.

How is your coaching different from traditional life coaching?

I integrate body awareness, mindfulness, and breathwork into our sessions. My training combines neuroscience-based techniques with wisdom from yogic and shamanic traditions, creating a deeply holistic approach. This is not just about setting goals—it’s about aligning with your true values, releasing emotional weight, and finding a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.

Who is coaching for?

I work with women who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or at a crossroads, as well as those who are ready for change but need support in staying on track. If you want someone who helps you clarify what it is you want, asks insightful questions, cheers you on, and holds you accountable, coaching can be a powerful way to move forward with greater ease, confidence, and clarity.

Do you offer single coaching sessions?

I occasionally offer single sessions to women with whom I have already developed a trusting relationship with - as, for example, my massage clients – if I feel it would be of benefit. If you are in want of a single session, please get in touch to schedule a free phone call first.

I regularly offer a 3-Session Reset for focused support, as well as a more in-depth 6-week coaching journey for deeper exploration and transformation. If you're unsure which is right for you, we can discuss your needs in a free clarity call.

How do I know if this is right for me?

You might be feeling:

Stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally weighed down.
Like you need support navigating a transition or change.
Chronic tension, stress, or discomfort in your body.
A deep desire to reconnect with yourself and feel lighter.
Anxious and are looking for a practitioner who is trauma aware and whom you can trust to respect your boundaries

If any of this resonates, my work may be a good fit for you.
