The Kindfull Leadership Lab
Do you find yourself receiving feedback that you're “too nice”, but deep down, you resent the idea of having to toughen up to be an effective leader?
Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed and carrying the weight of your team on your shoulders, unsure of how to lighten the load without burdening others?
Imagine a working world 🌎 where…
You can be an impactful manager without compromising your values or dialling down your kindness.
You don't have to sacrifice being kind or authentic in order to lead effectively.
You can lead with empathy and compassion, while still achieving strategic goals and driving your team towards success.
This is the vision we have for you in The Kindfull Leadership Lab, a 12-month kindness-focused leadership development program designed specifically for managers like you.
We help you identify where your well-intentioned kindness might unintentionally hold back those around you.
Each month we’ll shine a light on a different Kindness Trap that could be interfering with your good intentions to bring out the best in those around you.

What it’s like to work with a leadership coach like Tee & a supportive group of peers on your Leadership Journey:
“Tee is incredible - she made us feel comfortable and created such a safe space for me to be open and honest with myself. The openness, humility and vulnerability of the group made for such valuable and powerful conversations. There was no judgement. We were all there knowing we had challenges, wanting to improve and so encouraged each other to be open.”
- Nasri, VP of Sales
“Tee creates a really safe space to be vulnerable. I grew in confidence from listening to other high performing leaders being humble about their own struggles. Everyone was really committed to learning and open to being vulnerable, ensuring a really diverse set of insights.”
- Charlotte, Finance Director
“Tee’s energy and the safety she creates amongst the group is superhuman. I really appreciated the chance to get real with other people. To be able to listen to stories and have the respect of someone else listening to mine was fantastic.”
- Blaine, Head of Product
“What I enjoy most about working with Tee, is that there are always things that come up that you weren't expecting, it always goes above and beyond your expectation. Tee's nurturing and curious way of probing and asking you to dig-deeper helps you to understand your own behaviour and how you can personally develop to help others, which makes the experience enriching and growth-focused.”
- Elliott, Global Head of Social Media
“Tee is so passionate about coaching, people, reflection and recognition. She really listens when others are talking and will reflect and recognise your discussion. This is very reassuring and encouraging when being honest about your skills, as it allows you to be vulnerable, which fosters growth. Tee's style of coaching really resonated with me, and I connected with her. I really felt involved, listened to, and went away after every session with learnings.”
- Lydia, Regional Manager

Explore the Inspiration Behind The Kindfull Leadership Lab:
Hey, I'm Tee. I created The Kindfull Leadership Lab because I hate seeing well-intentioned leaders not having the impact they want to. It's disheartening to see them trying to be kind, only to end up stifling the growth of their team members, limiting overall team output, and burning themselves out in the process.
I wanted to develop a community of leaders who believe in being good humans and who want to inspire and empower their teams to do great things.
I understand the struggle of wanting to lead with kindness while also stepping up into a more senior and strategic capacity. It can feel like there's a leadership ceiling that prevents us from fully embracing our values and making a meaningful difference - or that we have an idealistic dream that it’s possible to lead this way.
Prior to founding HUSTLE + hush, I spent a 15 years leading and motivating teams of high-performing, ambitious professionals in the luxury fashion and beauty industry for top global brands like Burberry, Charlotte Tilbury and Tommy Hilfiger in London and Amsterdam.
Through my background and the past nearly 8 years as a leadership coach, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the challenges leaders face in fast-paced, high-growth environments. My coaching focuses on leading with adaptive authenticity, over-coming well-intentioned kindness traps and empowering individuals and teams to navigate change, transitions and personal growth with confidence and connection.
My superpower is leveraging a combination of strong and honest challenge with kind and encouraging support, anchored in utmost safety. This creates an ideal environment for you to reflect upon your current reality, lean into the possibilities that exist within you and access the next steps to initiate this for yourself.
I’m a qualified Leadership Coach, through the Institute of Psychosynthesis/University of Middlesex, and a professional member of APECS (Association for Professional Executive Coaching and Supervision). A lifelong learner, I’m also an accredited Strengths Profile practitioner, a certified Appreciation at Work facilitator, a certified Emotional Culture Deck practitioner and an accredited Ovio Teach Mindfulness teacher.
