NeuroKintsugi:
Helping
divergent minds and souls
thrive
Neurodiverent people often believe they are broken. In professional settings: hightened sensitivity to stress, the need to conform, doubt and lack of confidence, burnout, imposter syndrome of self/late diagnosis, or masking fatigue can lead to breaking points. These aren't flaws to hide but seams of strength waiting to shine .
In Japanese tradition, broken pottery is repaired with gold, transforming cracks into luminous beauty—kintsugi, the art of golden repair.
NeuroKintsugi coaching doesn't aim to fix you or mask who you are - instead we want to illuminate. We help you trace your authentic profile with gold, celebrating the very differences that make your personal and professional story rare and precious.
Your breaks are not your breaking; they are your becoming…
“Hello, I'm Alex.
For over two decades, I've been a strategic leader organisations turn to when they need to drive digital transformation and deliver measurable commercial results. I've built high-performance teams, managed multi-million pound client portfolios, and partnered with C-suite executives at brands like Dove, Google, Microsoft, P&G, L'Oreal, Lego…
But at 50, during my menopause transition, I discovered something that reframed my entire professional story: I am neurodivergent. Suddenly, decades of feeling like "something was off" in the way I processed the world around me made sense.What I had spent years trying to smooth over or (sometimes) apologise for were gifts when used properly, I had spent years operating in systems not designed for minds like mine.
This discovery didn't diminish my professional achievements; it illuminated why I'd been so effective at seeing innovative solutions others missed, building diverse teams, and creating environments where different thinking styles could thrive. Now I bring this dual perspective—a diverse angle to leadership as well as neurodivergent professional - to my coaching practice.
I have been coaching individuals - in various types of settings - to help them uncover their unique strengths, align with their core values, and achieve meaningful growth.
What drives me most is helping women, queer, and neurodivergent professionals realise their power — because I understand both the boardroom dynamics and the internal landscape of feeling different in professional spaces. By creating safe, non-judgmental environments, I empower clients to transform their perceived "breaks" into golden seams of strength.
Whether you're navigating transitions, refining your leadership skills, or learning to lead authentically as your neurodivergent self, my approach combines strategic business acumen with deep understanding of what it means to discover your true wiring later in life.
Because sometimes the very traits that made you feel broken are the ones that make you brilliant.”
