About Me

Hi, I’m Leanne - an Embodied Leadership facilitator and the founder of Hart2heart Wellbeing.

I spent over two decades in People and Culture roles where I guided people leaders around the world, but it wasn’t until I saw two friends suffer psychological injuries from work that I came to the confronting realisation.

Organisations don’t do nearly enough to talk about or address the deeper causes of stress, burnout, disconnection and psychological harm.

That turning point led me to combine my work in leadership development, with somatic, trauma-informed yoga practices and nervous system regulation to transform the way wellbeing is supported in the workplace.

Now I support mid-life leaders and teams who are feeling the weight of expectations, juggling challenges and complexity and just quietly wondering, “How long can I keep going like this?”

My bio:

My approach is grounded in experience from working locally and globally with corporate, privately-owned, social purpose and local government organisations where I’ve specialised in people and culture, senior management, leadership development, training, health, safety and wellbeing program design. It’s taken me to over 25 countries and environments from boardrooms to factory floors.

My practical experience is complemented by qualifications including a Master of Management, certification of Embodiment Coaching, a Cert IV in Fitness, a Diploma in Exercise Science & Fitness Management and teacher certification in Hatha, Trauma-informed and Community yoga.

I’ve also served as a Board Chair of a not-for-profit organisation providing proactive education for the partners and families of frontline responders.

A healthy life balance underpins everything I do and when I’m not guiding my wonderful clients, you might find me recharging on a run or hike, reconnecting with nature, losing myself in good live music, planning an adventure or restoring on my much-loved yoga mat.
