Behind the Shift Coaching Experience
A 4-session coaching container for wāhine who are ready to lead their business differently.
You're showing up for everyone and everything. But privately, something isn't sustainable. Behind the Shift is where you finally get to look at what's actually going on, and lead differently as a result.
You built a successful business. So why does it still feel this hard?
You’re showing up. You’re delivering. From the outside, everything looks fine.
But privately, there’s a tiredness that doesn’t lift. Decisions feel heavier than they should. You’re holding more than is sustainable and somewhere underneath all the doing, you’re wondering how long you can keep going at this pace.
This isn’t a capacity problem. It’s not a strategy problem.
It’s a self-leadership problem.
And that’s exactly where we begin.
What this is
Behind the Shift Coaching Experience is a 4-session, 1:1 coaching container designed to help you examine and shift the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns shaping how you lead your business right now.
Not how you should lead. How you actually lead.
This is coaching in its truest form. You bring what’s real. We look at what’s underneath it. And you leave each session with greater clarity on how to move forward.
Why this experience changes things
You’ll make better decisions.
When you understand the beliefs driving your choices, decisions get cleaner. Less second-guessing. More clarity and more confidence in the choices you make.
You’ll stop carrying what isn’t yours.
Coaching surfaces where you’re taking on more than is sustainable. Once you can see the pattern, you can change it.
You’ll gain awareness that lasts.
The insights from coaching don’t stay in the session. They change how you show up in every decision, conversation, and boundary going forward.
You’ll lead from a steadier place.
Not reactive. Not running on empty. You begin to respond from what you actually think and value, rather than from pressure or habit.
You’ll reconnect with what matters.
Busy women often lose sight of why they started. This container creates the space to recalibrate what success actually means to you right now.
What’s included
Behind the Shift Coaching Experience includes 4 x 60-minute 1:1 coaching sessions, held fortnightly (every 2 weeks) over 8 weeks.
Each session is a confidential, collaborative partnership. Coaching isn’t something that’s done to you. It’s a thinking space we create together, where you set the direction and I ask the questions that help you see more clearly. This is guided by the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics, which means your agenda, your autonomy, and your insights are at the centre of every conversation.
This is the space to do the thinking you haven’t had room to do.
Between sessions you have access to brief email check-ins to capture emerging insights or questions as they arise.

Who this is for
This experience is designed for wāhine who:
This isn’t a mentoring programme. There’s no framework to follow, no action plan to build.
This is the space to do the thinking you haven’t had room to do.
How we work together
Before our first session, you’ll complete a short intake form so I can understand where you are before we begin.
In our first session we dive straight into what you want to shift. Where you are now. Where you want to be. What’s getting in the way.
From there, sessions are held fortnightly (every 2 weeks) over 8 weeks. Each one builds on the last, at a pace that feels grounded and intentional.
Every conversation is strictly confidential, guided by the ICF Code of Ethics.
Why work with me
I know what it is to have a business that looks successful on the outside while on the inside it still feels scattered and unsustainable.
I started my business in 1999. For years I was the capable one. The one who kept going, kept delivering, kept holding it all together. It wasn’t until 2016 that I stopped long enough to look at what was actually driving the way I was operating. There was a moment when one of my team mirrored my own behaviour back at me. It was confronting enough that I couldn't look away. That's when I understood that if you want to change how you operate in business, you have to be willing to look at your thoughts, your feelings, and the way you communicate as a result. That examination changed everything.
I began my formal coach training in 2022 and hold the ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential, meeting the international standard for coaching competency and ethics set by the International Coaching Federation. I’m also a Full Focus Certified Pro and a Certified Business Coach.
I’m a wahine Māori of Ngāti Mutunga, Ngāti Tama, Ngā Toa and Te Atiawa descent. My approach is warm, intuitive, and grounded in lived experience. I don’t tell you what to do. I create the space for you to see clearly what you already know.

I am so grateful for my coaching sessions with Sandra. Over 6 sessions, I've dug deeper and unlocked limiting beliefs that were holding me back for meeting my goals. I wholeheartedly recommend Sandra as a coach. She held space for me as I introduced complex feelings with care and grace.
