Evidence-Based Support for Real Change

Hi there, I'm Pip

Before founding Pause, With Pip, I spent nearly two decades teaching and mentoring young people — and earlier in life, I worked as a birth doula and a government-funded sex education facilitator. These roles gave me a rare, intimate view of the emotional shifts, identity changes, and nervous system stressors that shape us from adolescence to midlife and beyond.

That through-line has never changed: I’ve always worked with people in transition.

Today, I support women and men navigating burnout, anxiety, life pivots, and the emotional weight of midlife — including menopause, grief, career upheaval, and the ache of life not unfolding how you’d hoped. My approach combines neuroscience, subconscious reprogramming, and forward-focused coaching to help you shift safely and sustainably.

This isn’t therapy. It’s a highly skilled coaching partnership, rooted in evidence and ethics, aligned with ICF standards, and designed to meet you where you are — with warmth, clarity, and deep respect for your readiness to change.

Before founding Pause with Pip

I spent nearly 20 years teaching, observing behavior, burnout, and emotional patterns up close. Experiencing complex grief in my menopausal journey from the loss of my brother and both parents in a short period of time, I could no longer live life as I did before. What could have broken me became a deep transformational experience, leading me to deepen my studies in neuroscience and behavioral change, eventually turning personal healing into professional purpose.
