Nervous system science meets business strategy for long-term, sustainable growth
My monthly coaching program offers personalised, long-term support to grow or redesign your business in a way that honours your wellbeing. We blend nervous system regulation with business strategy so you can build a business that truly fits your capacity and your current season of life. This program sets you up for sustainable success, with tools and insights that support you for years to come.
1:1 monthly program
—> How it works:
We will meet on Zoom for two coaching sessions each month that are added to a private podcast with summaries, reflections, and next steps. In between sessions, I curate your private podcast with the resources, micro-practices, and training you most need to support your goals. You will also have access to me through voice memos when you have a quick question, need to make a decision, or want support for what you are navigating in the moment. I only work with a small number of clients at this level to keep the support deep, personal, and consistent.
Who this program is for:
Women in business who want a long-term partner for clarity and growth
Women who want to succeed without burning out or compromising their wellbeing
Women who want a more spacious, sustainable way of running their business
Anyone leaving corporate or recovering from burnout who wants to build a business differently

My signature process for sustainable success
A peek inside the foundations that guide my coaching for women in business
Regulate & Build Capacity
When you’re constantly stretched, stressed, or running on adrenaline, it becomes hard to make clear decisions or lead with confidence. We start by regulating your system and creating more space in your day-to-day life so you can think, feel, and operate from a grounded place. This becomes the foundation for every strategic move you make
Reconnect with What Matters
Once your system settles, clarity returns. Together, we explore your values, your real priorities, and the kind of business or role that feels true for this season of your life. This is where decision fatigue lifts. You reconnect with your intuition, energy, and natural rhythm so the direction ahead feels aligned rather than forced.
Reclaim Your Power & Boundaries
With clarity comes the ability to reclaim your voice, confidence, and boundaries. Many women in business carry invisible loads, patterns of over-functioning, or a fear of disappointing others. In this stage, we shift those patterns so you can step into your work with more authority, self-trust, and ease. You begin leading from your strength instead of your stress.
Redesign for Ease, Alignment & Growth
From this stronger foundation, we redesign your business in a way that honours your energy and your goals. This often includes refining your offers, simplifying your workload, clarifying your niche, or adjusting your pricing and boundaries. You rise into the next chapter of your business with more confidence, resilience, and sustainable momentum.
Every single day I draw on the things I have learned from our sessions. Those sessions are still paying off. I’ve come so far since our first days of working together! I feel like I have updated to version 2.0. I have my toolbox of Sonya tools – which still serve me years after working with you. It all applies perfectly to what’s happening right now, only I am at a whole new level.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about coaching with me
(Click the + symbol to read more)
Are you a business coach, wellness coach or leadership coach?
—> I’m all three. I offer a unique blend of business strategy, nervous system science, and leadership development. My coaching supports the whole woman behind the business, so you can grow sustainably without sacrificing your health or wellbeing. With 26 years of experience and trauma-informed training, I help you make grounded decisions, navigate complexity, and build a business that truly fits your life.
How is your coaching different from group programs?
—> Everything we do is personalised and curated. It saves you wasted time and ensures you get exactly what you need to succeed. There’s no curriculum, no generic modules, and no group calls where you’re trying to squeeze your situation into someone else’s framework. You receive private sessions, customised resources, and a private podcast with coaching, reflections, and tools tailored to your goals. This is high-touch support, not a one-size-fits-all process.
How is your coaching different from traditional business coaching?
—> Traditional business coaching often focuses on strategy, productivity, and performance.
I support you on two levels:
Your business: clarifying your direction, refining your offers, simplifying your workload, redesigning your model, and supporting business decisions.
Your capacity: nervous system regulation, stress patterns, emotional resilience, boundaries, and sustainable energy.
This combination helps you grow a business that fits your real life and prevents the burnout patterns many women carry from corporate or overwork.
What’s the difference between the 6-week programs and the monthly coaching?
—> The 6-week programs are short, focused intensives designed to help you stabilise, find direction, or create clarity quickly. They’re perfect if you want a reset, momentum, or a defined shift in a short timeframe.
Monthly coaching is a long-term partnership. It supports women who want ongoing guidance to grow or redesign their business, strengthen their leadership, make strategic decisions and create a sustainable way of working. This is where deeper transformation happens.
Many of my clients work with me for several years (some for more than a decade) because the partnership evolves with their business and their life, and the support continues to meet them where they are.
Do you offer coaching for women who aren’t in business?
—> Yes. You don’t need a business to join the 6-week programs. They support women navigating leadership, pressure, or capacity challenges who want clarity, grounding, and direction.
Do you work with women considering starting a business?
—> Yes. Many women work with me when they’re considering leaving corporate or starting a business, but feel overwhelmed or unsure about what that transition should look like. Monthly coaching gives you the support, clarity, and grounded strategy you need to build a business that actually fits your life and wellbeing.
How does the private podcast work?
—> A private podcast works just like any other podcast, but it’s created solely for you. You download it into your favourite podcast app, and no one else has access to it.
After each session, I add the replay, transcript and summary to your private feed. You’ll also receive personalised micro-practices, education, reflections and tools to support you between sessions. It’s like having me with you throughout the week, offering guidance whenever you need it.
What can I expect to gain from coaching?
–> You can expect to feel clearer, calmer, and more confident in your business and in yourself. Many women describe finally having the space to think clearly again, the confidence to trust their decisions, and the ability to lead or run their business without burning out.
Clients often experience more ease in their day-to-day work, stronger boundaries, a clearer sense of direction, and business models that feel sustainable and aligned. You’ll build practical skills in leadership, sales, communication, and business design, and you’ll grow in ways that continue to support you long after our work together ends.
For many women, this work is life-changing. They feel more grounded, more themselves, and more capable of creating the business and life they want, without sacrificing their wellbeing in the process.
What’s included in the monthly coaching program?
—> You receive two 1:1 60-minute sessions each month, along with personalised resources, micro-practices, and voice memo support through your private podcast. This is a high-touch container, and I only work with a small number of clients at this level, so the support stays deep, personal, and consistent.
How long do I need to commit?
–> The 6-week programs are a single short-term commitment, and a great way to explore whether long-term coaching is right for you.
Monthly coaching has a six-month minimum. After that, you continue month-to-month and can step out anytime with 30 days’ notice. The initial commitment gives us time to stabilise your capacity, integrate the work into your life and business, and anchor long-term, sustainable change.
How do I know if your coaching is right for me?
–> My coaching is a good fit if you’re a woman navigating business or leadership who wants clarity, grounded support, and a calmer way of working. Many of my clients feel overstretched, tired of doing everything alone, or afraid of slipping back into burnout patterns. They want to grow, but they also want to protect their health, energy, and wellbeing.
If you’re looking for personalised guidance that meets you where you are, the 6-week programs are ideal for a focused shift or a reset. If you’re looking for a long-term partner to help you grow or redesign your business in a sustainable way, monthly coaching is the best fit.
If you’re unsure, we’ll talk it through in your consult so you can choose the option that feels aligned for your season of life.
Who is this coaching NOT for?
This coaching isn’t a fit if you’re looking for fast results without the inner or strategic work needed to create success without burning out. If you want band-aids, high-pressure tactics, unethical sales approaches, or a one-size-fits-all program, I’m not the right coach for you.
It’s also not the right fit if you prefer structured group programs or courses where you simply follow along. My work is personalised, collaborative, and built around your capacity, goals, and season of life. It’s not a container for crisis support, therapy, or medical treatment.
If you want a coach who pushes hard, motivates with pressure, or drives you to keep going at any cost, we won’t be aligned. My style is warm, honest, and grounded. I will encourage you to rest, slow down, and honour your energy as you grow.
And finally, you need to be open to nervous system regulation and self-awareness as part of the process. If you only want business strategy, marketing, or sales tactics without the deeper foundation, this coaching won’t be the right fit.
How do I get started?
–> Book a free introductory consult. We’ll look at where you are, what you need, and whether my approach is the right fit for you.
How much does coaching cost?
–> The 6-week programs are AUD 1500 / USD $995. Monthly coaching is AUD 1250 / USD $850 per month, with a six-month minimum commitment.
All payments are made upfront via credit or debit card. Bank transfer is available within Australia.
Hello! I am Sonya
With 26 years as a coach, entrepreneur, and speaker, I’ve supported thousands of women, founders, and leaders to create meaningful success without sacrificing their wellbeing.
My work blends science-backed nervous system regulation with business strategy and leadership development. It’s shaped by decades of experience, my own journey from burnout to resilience, and the belief that women shouldn’t have to choose between success and their health.
As a certified trauma-informed coach, I create a safe, honest, and empowering space for deep transformation. I’m passionate about helping women build businesses and careers that truly fit THEM, not the other way around.
Words can’t express my gratitude for Sonya and her work. I have already felt so many shifts – I can see the pathway to my dream life and have given myself permission to start living it. Sonya has this magical way of helping people navigate work, life, and uncertainty. It’s an understatement to say that her work has transformed my life.
