Hello and Welcome

I’m Emma!

I'm beyond excited that you've found this corner of the internet! Here you will find a a space dedicated to multi-passionate achievement and sustainable success for women building multiple things.

As a performance psychologist with over 15 years experience and a perpetual love of learning (*multi-passionate*) I am a fairly curious human. This curiosity led me the question: How can multi-passionate women thrive across ALL their interests without the chaos, guilt, or burnout?

And the rest, they say, is history. That curiosity has led me to synthesise research across psychology, neuroscience, and high performance, and to create frameworks specifically designed for how multi-passionate brains work. Not advice to "pick one thing." Not generic productivity systems. Actual psychology-backed tools for women building multiple businesses, projects, and pursuits.

When I'm not diving into learning and research or working with clients, you might find me pursuing my own athletic goals, getting creative with my paint brush, or researching my next learning adventure (yes, I probably have a tab open right now with another degree, any recommendations?).

Here at The Mindset Psych, I create programs exclusively for multi-passionate women to equip you with practical, sustainable strategies that honour your variety as your competitive advantage.

Get to know me

I'm a multi-passionate human myself and a bit of a super-nerd when it comes to psychology, achievement, and how the brain works. Here are some stripes I've collected along the way:

  • I'm an Australian-trained psychologist with a Master of Professional Psychology , Advanced Graduate Diploma in Psychology , and Bachelor of Social Work I've been working in allied health, performance coaching and psychology for over 15 years.

  • Author of the Adventures of Alan and Penny children's book series, using storytelling to help kids understand their emotions

  • Amateur athlete constantly chasing new physical challenges [I broke a Guinness World Record for most chest-to-ground burpees in 24 hours (team category) - yes, on purpose, yikes!]

  • Consult with the female football initiative to develop programs to help young female athletes build mental resilience to thrive both on and off the field

  • Taught in the field of social work at universities, contributing to the development of future professionals.

My work might be for you if…

  • You’re seeking lasting strategies that fuel your resilience, sharpen your mental clarity, and elevate your performance—without the burnout. You know there’s more to success than pushing harder, and you’re ready to find a better way.

  • You know there’s more to success than pushing harder, and you’re ready to find a better way.

    You also don’t want success to come at the cost of your well-being. If you're looking for strategies to help you maintain your peak performance without burning out, we’ve got you covered.

  • Whether you’re returning from maternity leave, a career break, or looking to take the next step after some time off, we’ll help you map out a clear path forward. We’ll guide you in finding the strategies that align with your energy and your goals, so you can thrive in this next phase.

  • If taking a break leaves you feeling guilty, you’re not alone—but you don’t have to live that way. If you’re ready to drop the productivity guilt and learn how to rest strategically without losing momentum, this space is for you.

  • If your days are a labyrinth of tasks, roles, and responsibilities, and you’re looking for smarter ways to manage it all without dropping the ball, our programs will help you streamline and navigate your busy life with more ease and less stress.

But might not be for you if…

  • If you’re currently seeking 1:1 therapy for clinical mental health concerns, or if you're in the midst of burnout needing therapeutic recovery, this may not be the best fit for now. Our focus is on enhancing personal and professional growth, but our programs are not a substitute for individualised medical or psychological treatment. It’s important to seek one-on-one therapeutic support if that’s what you need at this stage in your journey.

  • If burnout is affecting your ability to handle day-to-day tasks, and you're dealing with issues like disrupted sleep, anxiety, low mood, or physical health concerns, professional recovery support might be more beneficial for you right now. Our programs are about proactive strategies to prevent the occurrence, and when you’re able to engage in that space, we’d love to have you join us.

  • While we foster a supportive and connected community, our programs focus on personal and professional development, not primarily on social interaction. If your main goal is to find a social group, you may not find what you’re looking for here—but we hope our community can still offer some connection along the way.

  • Our programs thrive on ongoing learning, self-reflection, and experimenting with strategies to discover what works best for you. If you’re looking for a quick, one-size-fits-all fix, this might not be the right fit. We believe that long-term success comes from engaging with the process and continuously refining your approach.

  • Life can be demanding, and sometimes it’s just not the right time to commit to personal development. If you’re in a phase where other priorities require all your attention and energy, that’s okay! When life settles down and you’re ready to focus on yourself, we’ll be here to welcome you.
