What I Help With

Targeted support for performance blocks, pressure points & breakthrough moments

You may feel that no matter how hard you try, it’s never enough. That if you slow down, everything will fall apart. That pushing harder is the only answer. That taking a break means falling behind. That your worth depends on your results. That you’ll be exposed if you let down your guard. That burnout is just part of the job. Or… that high performance means high pressure – forever.

But that’s just not true. And that’s where I can help. As a mindset and high-performance coach who has experienced my own physical and mental setbacks, I understand where you’re coming from… and where you want to go.

Whether you’re aiming for the podium, the stage or the next level in your career, mindset matters. Self-doubt, performance anxiety and burnout can all get in the way – and no amount of training or hustle can fix it on its own.

My approach uses a blend of hypnotherapy, NLP and high-performance coaching and is tailored to who you are, how you perform and what’s holding you back. I can get you back on track and not only moving towards your goal again, but with renewed purpose and a deep sense of what’s truly possible.

What I Help With

Where inner work meets real-world change.

My practice isn’t about forced discipline or positive affirmations. At You Ignited, I combine evidence-based, subconscious reprogramming with practical, real-world coaching. This isn’t a quick fix – it’s a complete shift in how you think, feel and perform – so you can overcome internal blocks for good.

Whether you’re facing burnout, imposter syndrome or high-pressure perfectionism, I help you break through from the inside out.

Hypnotherapy

Subconscious reprogramming

I work where lasting change happens – beneath the surface. Hypnotherapy helps rewrite deep mental patterns, fast.

Coaching

Sustainable high performance

It’s not about pushing harder – it’s about showing up smarter. I help you build confidence, focus and resilience that lasts.

Combined hypnotherapy + coaching

Individualised transformation

Every high achiever is unique. So, I tailor every session to your goals, history and patterns and approach your work with an individualised combination of hypnotherapy and coaching.

Meet Leah Marie

“True performance doesn’t come from effort alone. It comes from alignment – between your beliefs, your mindset and your goals.”

Hi, I’m Leah, and for the last 20 years, I’ve been captivated by the power of the mind – how it shapes our reality, fuels our performance or stealthily holds us back.

After battling perfectionism and burnout early in my journey, I sought answers in education – earning a PhD in mindset transformation. When a serious injury also left me unable to perform physically, I applied those same principles to my own recovery, ultimately becoming a multi-title bodybuilder.

Now I help high achievers do the same for themselves – reprogram limiting beliefs, reset their mindset and reimagine their potential.
