The Brilliant Both Blueprint

Be a brilliant lawyer and a great mum without tearing yourself in two.

Does this sound familiar?

It’s 6:45am. Shoes missing. Breakfast untouched. Inbox already pinging.
You mutter under your breath or snap.
And the guilt follows you all day.

At work, you feel guilty for not being home.
At home, you feel guilty for not doing enough at work.

And at 3am, you lie awake wondering
So why does it feel like you’re failing at both?

Imagine this instead..

Walking into work calm and confident.

Coming home to your children and actually enjoying them.

Finally recognising yourself again.

“I can be proud of my career and present as a mum without feeling like I’m failing at either.”

That’s what’s possible inside The Brilliant Both Blueprint.

What is The Brilliant Both Blueprint?

A six-month coaching programme designed for lawyer mums who want to succeed in their legal careers and thrive in their motherhood without burning their life down in the process.

You’ll get the clarity, confidence, and strategies to live the life you’ve been chasing: one where your career, your family, and you can all thrive.

Here’s how it works:

  • Initial 2-Hour Discovery Session: a deep dive into who you are, where you are, and where you want to go.

  • Bi-Weekly Coaching Sessions: every two weeks, you’ll walk away with clarity, a plan, and the confidence to act on it.

  • Personalised Action Plan: clear next steps after each session so you never leave wondering “what now?”.

  • Regular Email Support: reach out between sessions when challenges or questions arise.

  • Progress Reviews: regular check-ins to reflect, recalibrate, and celebrate your growth.

  • Confidential Telegram Channel: quick voice notes and accountability when you need it most.

Pillar 1:
Work: Building a Career That Doesn’t Break You

Own Your Strengths and Leadership Style: uncover your natural strengths so you lead confidently, without apology or second-guessing.

Show Up Authentically at Work: step into every room as your full self, building relationships that support your career growth.

Redefine Success on Your Terms: create a definition of success that feels aligned and achievable, not just about hours billed or titles earned.

“No matter where I am, I feel like I’m letting someone down - at work, at home, or both.”

This Blueprint rewrites that.

Pillar 2:
Motherhood: Being the Mum You Want to Be

Be Present Without Guilt: learn how to switch off from work so you can actually enjoy time with your children.

Set Boundaries That Honour You: protect your family time and your energy without fear of letting others down.

Navigate Female Relationships with Confidence: release competition and comparison, and build supportive networks, at the school gate and at work.

“I hate the way I lose my patience with my children, but I don’t know how to stop it.”

Inside this Blueprint, you’ll finally have the tools.

Pillar 3:
Sanity: Protecting Your Energy and Yourself

Develop Resilience You Can Rely On: move through challenges and pressure without snapping or burning out.

Daily Practices That Steady You: practical resets that keep you calm in the chaos (so mornings don’t spiral into shouting matches).

Reclaim Time for You: simple, doable shifts that give you back space to breathe and reconnect with yourself.

“I don’t recognise myself anymore - I’m constantly rushing, snapping, and never feeling like I measure up.”

This is where you come back to yourself: calmer, clearer, more confident.

Why me?

Because I know this life: I lived it.

I spent 14 years in a global law firm, navigating relentless deadlines, leadership pressures, and the constant juggle of career and motherhood. On the outside, I looked like I was holding it all together. On the inside, I was snapping at my daughters, lying awake at 3am, weighed down by guilt, and with no time at all for myself or my relationship.

When I retrained as a coach, I knew I wanted to support women like me: ambitious, capable, and exhausted from trying to be brilliant at work and at home, all at once.

Today, as a certified One of Many coach and founder of Mother for Life, I’ve supported hundreds of women in professional services to reclaim their careers, their confidence, and their calm and to finally feel proud of both parts of their lives.

Your investment for this support and guidance is £1,850.

This is an investment in your growth, confidence, and leadership. A chance to build the career and life you truly want.

If you don’t feel ready to commit, you can book a one-off 90-minute session instead.

Sessions can be in person in Birmingham or London, or via Zoom.

  • “Mandy has made such a difference to my life and how I perceive myself as a working mum and a woman. She has made me realise that although I put my family first, doing things for myself is not selfish and is actually beneficial to the happiness of my whole family unit.”

    Alice

  • “She provided a safe space where I felt seen and understood. A place where, for a little while, the mum guilt wasn't quite so crushing and the days were not quite so endless and the helpless insecurity was cushioned by her warmth and practical wisdom. No-one was judging me, nothing was expected of me. Mandy was a bright spot in a very dark time. She is a very special person whose caring nature and gift for empathy deserves recognition.”

    Helena

  • “Mandy is changing the world. She has stepped up to the challenge of saying to the world that how we treat women and mums in particular is not good enough. Her circles are bringing us together to feel empowered and to feel that we are not alone. Mandy has such compassion she lifts your spirits just being near her.”

    Gemma

  • “Mandy empowers women to advocate for and nurture themselves. She brings women together to create networks and support each other with great professionalism and huge amounts of kindness and compassion. Mandy’s network gave me the tools to advocate for myself when I was ill during pregnancy, trusting my voice and my body.”

    Natasha

  • “Mandy is the very essence of a champion for women. In my years of knowing her, she has supported me and cared for me like no other. Her words of encouragement and guidance during my pregnancies helped ground me and enable me to be present at work and take on the challenges that faced me with confidence.

    Eve

  • “Mandy has guided me from pregnancy during Covid, to becoming a Mum and now cheerleads and supports me and my business. She has the most wonderful energy and is there with open arms holding the most nurturing and warm spaces for women. She is so inspiring and she really will help make a difference to the way women see themselves and other women.”
