investment and guarantee

  • The investment fee is £2995 or two payments of £1500 (additional payment plans available)
  • We are 100% confident in our ability to support our clients to improve their wellbeing and move towards their goals. Due to the nature of coaching and the fact that success is dependent on a number of factors over which we have no control (client engagement, motivation, action taking), we are not able to guarantee any particular results - in fact it would be quite unethical to do so!

  • As a highly regarded, experienced Senior Psychologist Dr Frances offers a unique coaching experience, underpinned by a depth of psychological knowledge, training, and professional skills to support inner work and real transformation
  • If you can no longer attend our planned day we will always try to reschedule. Clients also have peace of mind with an option to request early termination of the contract and receive a monetary refund in accordance with the termination terms outlined in the coaching contract

  • You can be assured you are receiving first-class insight and support as Dr. Frances is a Chartered Psychologist with The British Psychological Society (this is the highest professional standard you can reach) and a registered practitioner psychologist with the Health & Care Professions Council, meaning that she is a regulated professional, bound by strict professional practice guidelines and standards of ethics and care. 

WE ARE 100% COMMITTED TO INCREASING THE GLOBAL IMPACT OF FEMALE FOUNDERS AND INCREASING FEMALE WEALTH BY GIVING WOMEN THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TOOLS THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS AND FLOURISH IN LIFE

Hey, how are you?

I’m Dr Frances,

and I’m the proud founder of the FFWA – a space for incredible women to learn, connect and thrive.

As a Psychologist championing the mental health and wellbeing of female entrepreneurs, a Female Founder and Mother to young children myself, I am 100% with you on this journey!

The emotional and psychological toll of creating, growing and leading your own business is huge – and like lots of things in the entrepreneurial world – support specifically designed with women’s needs in mind is still pretty scarce

The CEO Experience Days are designed to help you step out of your bubble & find space for yourself, gaining new perspectives & reconnecting with what's important to you, so you & your business can thrive together

With us, BUSINESS AND PERSONAL LIVES ARE SUPPORTED TOGETHER

It is my absolute privilege to help you on your journey
