Coaching with Shireen
Coaching works best when it is grounded in how people actually think, decide and change. Every programme I offer is built around behavioural science, structured support and genuine attention to what is going on for you specifically. Not a template. Not a generic framework. A programme shaped around your context and your goals.
I work with a small number of individuals at any one time. If you are ready to invest in yourself, need to diagnose and redesign how you operate fast, or want a consistent senior thinking partner, one of these programmes is the right fit.
The Coaching Programmes
Every coaching engagement is personalised. The programmes below are the three ways I currently work with individuals. A 90-day programme built around self-trust and momentum, an intensive diagnostic and redesign for professionals who need to move fast, or sustained coaching over time.
If you are not sure which is right for you, start with a conversation.
Focus. Act. Build. Build The Trust. Make The Move.
This programme is for the person who does important work, holds a lot together and knows it is time to back themselves fully, build their self-trust and move forward with more certainty than they currently feel."
"I was at a point where I knew something had to shift but I could not see what. Shireen gave me clarity, structure and a way of working that actually fits around real life. I did not just finish the programme. I finished it differently." - Focus. Act. Build participant.
"I completed the 90 days while working through a difficult three-month notice period, and it was a total game-changer. It gave me the tools to stay grounded and rebuild self-trust during a really unhappy professional stretch. If you are in a period of transition, this is the support you need." - Focus. Act. Build participant.
Five x 45-minute one-to-one coaching sessions across 90 days and the full Hero Journal Bundle — four journals covering certainty and self-trust, capturing wins, resetting when things go sideways and building sustained momentum. Built around the 12 Minute Hero Method.
Peak Performance Reset. Diagnose how you work. Redesign how you operate. Perform at your best.
For professionals who need to move fast. If the diary is running you and everything has piled up, this programme gives you clarity, structure and a concrete plan. It includes a specific audit of what kind of work is actually taking up your time and where AI can free you up to do more of the work only you can do.
How it works:
A 30-minute discovery call to agree the focus
A one-hour foundation session to get underneath the presenting challenge
A three-hour deep-dive covering Time Audit, Big Rocks and Boundaries, diary audit, energy audit and priority sorting using the 12 Minute Hero Method
Three x 45-minute follow-up sessions across 90 days to embed what has changed and keep momentum going
You leave with:
Focus summary
Restructured diary and weekly template
90-day momentum map
