MOST PROGRAMMES TELL YOU WHAT TO DO, UNBLOCKED DEALS WITH WHY YOU’RE NOT DOING IT.
You already know what the next step is. If you’re honest with yourself, you’ve known for a while, maybe a long time. You’re not short of information or lacking in ideas, and you’re not, despite what you might tell yourself on a bad day, without talent or ability. What you have is a gap between knowing and doing that has proven, so far, to be surprisingly resistant to everything you’ve thrown at it.
You know your work could really make a difference, but no matter how many hours you work, it seems like your writing or business is just inching forward.
It may even feel like you’re going backwards at times.
This is not mindset problem in the way that word is usually meant, it’s much more specific thing. No amount of positive thinking and good advice or carefully constructed action plans can reach which is why it is still unresolved and blocked.
I’m not in the business of criticism, we just need to be real about where we’re starting from.
I was working endless hours and afraid to advertise to take on more clients as I felt I could not handle the extra workload. Maria helped me to work past my money blocks and gave me a clear and effective path to upgrade/grow my business, while working less hours. I doubled my turnover in the last 12 months.

Why everything else hasn’t worked
You’ve bought the courses, books and coaching and none of that is wasted and most likely, none of it failed. It didn’t work on the block because it wasn’t designed to. Almost everything available to you in the personal development and business coaching space operates at the level of conscious thought, it gives you better information, frameworks and strategies.
But the block has been running quietly in the background, making decisions about what you will and won’t do, what you deserve and don’t, what is and isn’t possible for someone like you. By the time most people find their way here, that part of the mind has been operating for so long that its conclusions no longer feel like conclusions, they feel like facts.
They are not facts, they are a story and a story can be changed.
What Unblocked actually does
I work with a combination of coaching, NLP and hypnosis – and the reason that combination matters is that NLP and hypnosis are the only tools I know that communicate directly with the part of the mind where the block actually lives.
They bypass the conscious reasoning work at the level where the block was formed and where it can genuinely be shifted rather than managed.
It’s not therapy or traditional coaching, it’s targeted work on a specific problem – the gap between who you are and what you are doing – and it’s work I have been doing for long enough, across enough different people in enough different situations, to know what works and what doesn’t.
My journalism background matters here more than it might seem. Two decades of working as a political reporter, news editor, features editor and health journalist taught me to find the real story underneath the presented one – to ask the question nobody else is asking, to hear the gap between what someone is saying and what they actually mean and to keep going until I reach something true. That skill does not stop being useful when the story belongs to the person sitting across from me.
What I’ve learned across fifteen thousand hours of working with writers and business owners is that the thing stopping most people has almost nothing to do with talent or ability or the right strategy. It nearly always comes down to a story they’ve been telling themselves for so long that they’ve stopped questioning whether it’s actually true.
My job is to help you find that story, examine it honestly and decide whether it’s one worth keeping.
Does any of the following sound familiar?
The inner critic that has a fully formed opinion about your work before you’ve finished the first draft
Finishing the book, programme or launch that’s been ready longer than you care to admit
Showing up consistently (you know you should but that’s not the problem)
The imposter feeling that follows you around regardless of how much experience you accumulate
Trusting your own creative instincts instead of waiting for someone else to tell you it’s good
Pitching your work and your prices with conviction and without the apologetic tone
The comparison spiral after five minutes on Instagram that ends somewhere much darker
Perfectionism (which is just fear wearing a more acceptable coat)
The gap between the version of yourself you perform online and the one who actually has something to say
Knowing what you want to create and being genuinely, inexplicably unable to start
This is where the Unblocked programme comes in.
Unblocked is two two hour sessions in a programme built around your specific block – it’s not a generic curriculum, because a generic curriculum has already not worked! Each programme includes:
- Two one-to-one sessions with me
- A hypnotic recording created by me so you can return to the work in your own time
- Practical exercises and resources to use between sessions
- Direct support from Maria between sessions throughout the programme
Every element of this is designed to keep the work moving, because the momentum between sessions matters as much as the sessions themselves.

Who this is for
This programme is for writers who have a book or creative project they keep circling – and for business owners who are entirely capable of the next level but find themselves, somehow, not quite reaching it. It’s for people who are self-aware enough to know the block isn’t rational and who have exhausted the rational solutions.
It’s not for people who want a programme they can half-commit to and see what happens. The work requires you to be genuinely willing to look honestly at what has been running the show. Our work requires a particular kind of readiness that either exists or it doesn’t. If it exists, this will be the most useful thing you have ever invested in!
What shifts?
You finish things – not because you found discipline from somewhere, but because the block is no longer operating
The inner critic gets considerably quieter, and on the days it doesn’t, you know exactly what to do with it
You show up in your content and pitches with consistency,because the energy that was going into the block is now going somewhere more useful
Procrastination stops being a character flaw you manage and becomes a signal you know how to read
You put your name on your work and mean it
The gap between who you are and what you’re putting out into the world finally closes
And at some point, when you least expect it, you realise you can’t remember the last time you talked yourself out of something
