The reset
For athletes who want to pause, re-evaluate, and get clarity.
The Reset is a one-off clarity session designed to help you zoom out and take stock of where you’re at. Ideal if you’re feeling stuck, at a crossroads, or simply want a fresh perspective on something specific. You’ll dive into a focused 60-minute conversation, then reconnect for a 30-minute check-in to see what’s shifted and what’s next.

6 Week Workshop
the playbook
For athletes ready to step off autopilot and intentionally design what’s next.
Over six weeks, you’ll slow down, zoom out, and learn sustainable tools and frameworks you can return to for the rest of your life. The Playbook immerses you in design thinking through personalised Field Notes, helping you break out of autopilot, reconnect with what matters, and design a life that holds up beyond the jersey.
-
1. Complete a short pre-workshop survey
This shapes the entire six-week journey around you — your context, your questions, and what you actually need right now.2. Work through 4 Life Design modules
The Playbook is structured around four core modules:Who Are You?
What’s Holding You Back?
Where Do You Want to Be?
How Are You Going to Get There?
Each module builds on the last, helping you move from reflection to clarity to intentional action.
3. Five 1:1 60-minute sessions
You’ll have a total of five one-on-one calls — one at the start of each module, plus a final wrap-up session. We start where you are and progressively zoom out, unpacking identity, pressure, direction, and what matters most at each stage.4. Personalised Field Notes + online workbooks
You’ll receive a bespoke mix of Field Notes tailored to each module, alongside free online Notion workbooks to capture reflections, insights, and ideas as you go.5. Final wrap-up session
We reconnect to reflect on what’s shifted, consolidate learning, and make sure you leave with clarity, confidence, and tools you can return to long after the program ends. -
Clear, grounded, and deepened self-awareness
Solid understanding of Design Thinking principles and how to apply them to your life
Confident in who you are beyond performance
Equipped with tools you can use through future seasons and transitions
Calm, intentional, and excited about what’s next
Regular Mentoring
the pulse
For athletes who want ongoing support as they put things into practice.
The Pulse is a regular check-in designed to help you stay connected to what matters, and keep momentum without overthinking. Available only to athletes who’ve completed The Reset or The Playbook, The Pulse is about staying aligned, having accountability, and thinking clearly as life and sport evolve.
-
1. You’re already in the ecosystem
The Pulse is only available once you’ve completed The Reset or The Playbook.2. Set your rhythm
Choose a cadence that fits your current season - weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Sessions are short, focused, and designed to support momentum without adding pressure.3. Real-time check-ins
Each session starts with what’s real right now in sport, work, relationships, or life. No fixed agenda. Just an honest pulse check and space to think clearly.4. Accountability, perspective + resources
The Pulse acts as a steady external reference point, helping you stay aligned, notice patterns, and keep moving forward. When useful, I’ll also share relevant tools or external resources to support what you’re working through. -
Stay clear on what matters, even as things change
Keep steady momentum without overthinking
Build confidence in your decisions and direction
Feel supported, accountable, and grounded as you go
what you’ll learn
How to apply the Design Thinking framework to your life to align who you are, what you do, and what you believe. So, when you sense that there’s more for you out there in the world, or when life punches you in the face (Mike Tyson said it, not me), you’ll have the tools to adapt, move forward, and create a juicy life worth writing home about.
Personalised Field Notes
Every Piggyback session is designed around you. A short pre-workshop survey and discovery call shape a bespoke mix of Field Notes, chosen specifically for where you’re at and what you need right now.
MEET THE
founder
After some highly motivating parental bribery ($2 per goal), football was my first love. I played for New Zealand at three FIFA Youth World Cups and earned a college scholarship in Texas. What followed wasn’t linear — burnout, retirement and un-retirement, a move to Spain, a pro contract, Australia, a championship, a code switch to AFLW, a torn calf, a Grand Final loss, and learning how to juggle two sports at once.
Along the way I volunteered in Nepal, worked with women’s organisations in Indonesia, dehorned rhinos in South Africa, surfed in Morocco, and lived in a lot of different places. Somewhere in all that movement, I learned what most athletes eventually do: identity doesn’t fit neatly into one role, and sport alone can’t carry a whole life.
Piggyback came from living the questions athletes quietly carry — who am I without sport? What’s next? and how do I build something alongside this, not after it? I don’t have all the answers, but I care deeply about creating space to ask better ones.
“everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.”
