A DEEP WORK GROUP COACHING PROGRAMME
Transform Confusion Into Clarity
8 Months of Support: 8-Month Retreat-Style Therapeutic Coaching Programme In A Small, Curated Group of Kindred Spirits Seeking Deep Work
Heal, Reflect & Rediscover Yourself. Find Direction in a Dedicated, Supportive Space that Guides You Through Your Self-Discovery Process
Join us twice a month for 8 months of therapeutic group coaching, a dedicated 1:1 session with Alice just for you, and a framework that blends neurobiology, breathwork & somatic body intelligence with the Enneagram and therapeutic coaching.
Your brain needs regulation to find purpose and direction. When that doesn’t happen the cost goes far beyond just job satisfaction.
Operating out of alignment with your brain’s regulation and purpose signals leads to:
Decreasing satisfaction despite achievements
Diminished personal confidence (imposter syndrome)
Personal or professional relationship strain as stress spills over
Mental exhaustion that vacation time doesn't fix (burnout)
Chaotic mind that masks as fits of inspiration (or escape plans) but doesn’t evolve into tangible results
Confusion about what’s missing / lack of clarity on where to go
Lack of motivation for opportunities that should excite you
Growing fear that you're on the wrong path
Because lacking connection to yourself (or others) isn't just unfulfilling
- it's neurologically exhausting.
Why I Created This Programme
In 2011, I co-founded Social Bite, which became a national social enterprise. From the outside, it looked like I was living the dream - bringing George Clooney and Leonardo DiCaprio to Scotland, helping to house, employ and feed the homeless community, and receiving much public recognition, including the ITV Pride of Britain Award and Honorary Doctorate Degrees.
But beneath the success lay a deeper truth: I'd given up my own well-being and sense of self in exchange for what looked like societal approval. I was experiencing burnout after burnout, feeling increasingly disconnected from myself and the joy that had initially driven me to make a difference.
The turning point finally came for me through slowing down and exploring different kinds of deep work to find the practices that really made a difference. I tried everything I could get my hands on: different forms of talk therapy; guided breathwork; Ayahuasca ceremonies in the Amazon; Huachuma ceremonies in the Andes; sweat lodges; and learning about the neurobiology of purpose and how we set and achieve goals.
Over my years of practicing as a Business Coach, I found myself noticing the same kind of blocks in other people - internal ones! This forced me to dive deeper into how we really get stuck, and what it is we really long for. Using inspiration from Jungian shadow work and tools such as the Enneagram, Internal Family Systems and breathwork, I started noticing the transformation people really needed happening in front of my eyes. Nowadays I work with clients on a much more holistic level and have abandoned the title of “Business Coach” or “Career Coach”, though career changes or upgrades are often a result of what I do. Nowadays my clients call me a Therapeutic or Deep Work Coach and this feels much more accurate to me.
With over 2000 hours of experience coaching individuals, groups and teams, I created this programme for like-minded people who want to heal, rediscover themselves and find more peace and direction - so you don’t have to wear a mask or pretend to be something you’re not anymore. This programme combines everything I wish I'd had during my own period of soul searching, recovery and navigating professional crossroads.
Prior to joining, you’ll have a free, no-obligation call with Alice to see if it’s the right fit.

Programme Breakdown
Each month consists of:
One longer intensive session which comes first each month (either 3 or 5 hours long)
A shorter 90-minute integration session 2 weeks later, to consolidate the learning before moving onto the next stage of the programme
-
A comprehensive 3-hour introduction to your Purpose Community (never more than 6 people). Overview of the programme, and an evaluation of each aspect of your life & career. You’ll explore how things are now and any ideas you might already have about how you’d like things to change. Alice facilitates exercises to help dissipate any confusion and create space for clarity to emerge.
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your first deep dive, this shorter session consolidates this month's learnings and clarifies what you're taking forward before the next phase begins.
-
5-Hour Find Your Purpose Workshop - A 5-hour intensive session that takes you back through your most important experiences to discover authentic values and how they manifest today. A deep dive into your nervous system’s history to explore & nurture the most meaningful lessons your life has to offer.
Having trained with Simon Sinek’s team, Alice closely follows the ‘Find Your Why’ process, paired with her knowledge of neurobiology which helps to intensify the results.
A 90-Minute Solidifying Session - 2 weeks after your deep dive session, you’ll have a 90-minute session that solidifies the themes from this month and hones in on what you’re taking away from this part of the programme before moving on.
-
This 5-hour Enneagram workshop allows you to discover the Enneagram, finding deep insight into your own unconscious personality patterns. Alice uses the Enneagram with her clients to create awareness into what is unconsciously driving your behaviour & how you might get in your own way - as well as offering beautiful guidance about where your energy shines brightest. This gateway to meaningful shadow work allows you to include earnest self-awareness as part of your unique ‘Internal Map’ for your life (which you’ll create later in the programme).
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session consolidates this month's learnings and clarifies what you're taking forward before the next phase begins.
-
This final 3-hour session is a space to consolidate your learning, exploring anything from the programme so far that needs more space. Participants often benefit from this time to explore the Enneagram in more depth and chat about what’s coming up. It’s a chance to chat with the others and get coached on anything that you’re sitting with as you think about your time in the programme so far and how you’d like things to progress.
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session revisits this month's lessons and clarifies what you're taking forward to Pillar 3, The Internal Map.
-
This profound 3-hour breathwork & IFS-informed session allows you to experience the power of the Enneagram when used as a healing tool for your psychological and spiritual growth. This is an IFS-informed approach that supports the way the Enneagram is supposed to be used: To reclaim the parts of you that you’ve forgotten, integrate parts you’ve been avoiding, and liberate the parts of you that you didn’t know were there - all in service of creating more wholeness and spaciousness. This session introduces you to a new, grounded place within yourself.
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session consolidates the month's learnings and clarifies what you're taking forward before the next phase begins.
-
This final 3-hour session is a space to consolidate your learning, exploring anything from the programme so far that needs more space. Perhaps revisiting a previous pillar, or beginning to discuss what the External Map might look like for you. It’s a chance to get coached on anything that you’re sitting with as you think about your time in programme so far and how you’d like things to progress.
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session revisits this month's lessons and clarifies what you're taking forward to the External Map.
-
A 3-hour session to explore your External Map - a plan of action for you going forward, now with more perspective and self-awareness. You’ll also learn to use body intelligence and relaxation techniques to find deeper insight into what you really want or need, to create a realistic plan of action (which you can start experimenting with before the programme closes).
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session consolidates the month's key learnings and clarifies what you're taking forward before the last month of the programme.
-
The last 3-hour intensive session is a space to continue exploring anything from the programme that needs more space. Perhaps perfecting the External Map, or having a look at anything else you feel called to revisit or solidify. It’s a chance to get coached on anything that you’re sitting with as you think about leaving the programme and continuing with your plan of action - The External Map.
90-Minute Integration Session - Two weeks after your deep dive, this shorter session consolidates the final month's lessons and clarifies what you're taking forward from the programme.

Testimonials
“It is clear Alice is incredibly widely trained, read & researched, however, along with her exceptional wealth of knowledge and skills built up from co creating social bite, coach and therapy education, it is her sunshine warmth, clear deep passion and love for people, and to see people thrive & love self and others in life, that sets her apart for me as a coach.”
“Alice is extremely knowledgeable and professional at all times, with excellent follow-up and structure after each session, but she also has a beautiful way of making everyone feel at ease and comfortable doing this deep work together in an online setting.”
“Amazing !! Even though it was a group setting, I always felt seen and heard. It was a safe space to be vulnerable and grow.”
“I found this programme delightfully surprising. I have learned so much about myself and my external goals. The learnings were constructive and relevant to my life. I am so grateful I saw Alice's LinkedIn post about the programme and so lucky that I was able to join. Anyone who wants to learn about how they walk through the world and use this to amplify their impact, should take this course. It was a true blessing to be part of this group.”
“The full programme was such a great experience. Being committed to this journey has felt like a real privilege, and I’m so grateful to Alice for creating such a safe, supportive environment for each of us to explore our own individual paths.”

FAQ
-
There is some flexibility on dates & times. The sessions will typically be held on a week day, between 12pm and 5pm to accommodate both US east coast participants and people with childcare responsibilities outside of work hours. Suggested dates for the next cohort will be discussed with each potential participant, get in touch by filling out the form on this page for more details.
Let Alice know ASAP if you’re interested in joining this programme as the dates are built around the participants shared availability as far as possible.
The Introductory On-Boarding Session and the Find Your Purpose Workshop, must be attended live.
Try not to miss a session. However, Alice understands that life happens - so if you miss a session, don’t worry, it will be recorded and sent out after.
-
Attending a call live is always the most impactful way to participate in a programme like this, and catching up afterwards can be hard to carve out time to sit and watch a long call, so we encourage you to hold firm on your boundaries to turn up to each session so you can properly benefit from the content.
However, sometimes life happens! So if you miss a session you can catch up on the recording which is emailed out each time. You’ll usually need to catch up before the next session, but at different stages of the programme it might be less essential. Alice will let you know :)
Ideally, the Introductory On-Boarding Session and the ‘Find Your Purpose’ workshop must be attended live. These are hard to catch up on outside of the session as you will be meeting for the first time and establishing group trust, or working in pairs.
-
To be officially accepted onto the programme, you must first have a chemistry call (30-60 mins) with Alice to explore if this programme is right for you. There are limited spaces on the programme and Alice wants to work with people she knows she can deliver value to. So the chemistry has to be right.
So first step is to fill in the form above and book in your call with Alice. After that, if you are both happy to proceed she’ll get dates confirmed and calendar event invites with the video call links sent out to everyone so you can protect the group calls time in your diary.
If you decide you’re not getting value from the programme, Alice will give you your money back. It is not in Alice’s interests to have unhappy clients!
