There is nothing you need to become before you arrive here.
This space exists for women who are no longer interested in chasing clarity, proving readiness, or holding themselves together through effort.
You may have spent years leading — families, work, relationships, communities — often without realising how much of yourself you quietly set aside to do so.
Not dramatically.
Just enough to stay included.
Lead With Love is not here to fix that.
Your presence here is not passive.
It asks that you stop disappearing to stay safe.
In this room, we do not rush clarity.
We do not push transformation.
We do not use urgency as proof of commitment.
We stay long enough for something real to arrive.
If you are here, it is because something in you already knows how to recognise safety — and is ready to stop using protection as a way of living.
Take your time.
Feel what it is like to stand without moving.
If this space meets you, welcome.
What Lead with Love Is
Lead With Love is a relational mentorship held in radiance — the ground that makes it safe to be fully present and lead without self-abandonment.
It unfolds over twelve weeks, not as a programme to complete, but as a space to practise remaining — with yourself, with others, and with what is real.
We meet regularly, in real time, and nothing here is rushed.
Together, we attend to what happens when you stop leaving yourself in order to lead, care, or hold things together, not through fixing or self-improvement, but through presence, honesty, and relational integrity.
Leadership emerges here not through effort, but through coherence.
From vision, to emotional steadiness, to inner authority, to a radiance that naturally influences others.
From this grounded presence, every inner state becomes safer to inhabit moments of depth and not-knowing, contraction or fatigue, early flickers of possibility, creative clarity, and full expression.
Nothing needs to be bypassed. Nothing needs to be pushed through.
This Space Tends to Be Met By Women Who…
have already done a great deal of living, leading, caring, and carrying.
Women who are capable, thoughtful, and often deeply attuned to others — sometimes to the point of leaving themselves behind without quite noticing when it happened.
They may not feel broken or in crisis.
But they do sense that something quieter is asking for attention.
Often, these are women who:
-
hold responsibility with ease, but feel the cost of doing so alone
-
are trusted by others, yet rarely feel met in the same way
-
have outgrown advice, motivation, and strategies
-
are no longer interested in fixing themselves to move forward
This space is not for women who wish to keep protecting themselves through withdrawal, erasure, performance or force. Nor is it for those who are not yet willing to meet their own presence without armour.
If you are here, you do not need to decide whether you belong.
Recognition happens quietly, or not at all.
Either is welcome.
How the Mentorship Is Held
Lead with Love is held as a steady, relational online space over twelve weeks.
We meet regularly in small group sessions, allowing enough continuity for trust, presence, and real relationship to form. Sessions are live, held in real time, and designed to support depth rather than volume.
Alongside the group space, there are opportunities for individual connection. These moments are not separate from the work — they are part of how the field is held, ensuring that what arises can be met with care and clarity.
Each session responds to what is alive in the room, while remaining anchored in the core practice of staying present and aligned with yourself.
Many women arrive having learned to protect themselves by either disappearing, softening their truth, staying quiet, adapting, or by over-asserting, over-explaining, and holding themselves in constant effort.
Lead with Love is a place where neither is required.
Here you are supported to stand; firm, present, and relational, without withdrawing and without force.
Between sessions, nothing is required of you.
There are no assignments to complete, no pressure to process, and no expectation to perform insight.
You are supported to notice what changes when you stop abandoning yourself in subtle ways — in leadership, in relationships, and in how you meet your own inner life.
This space is held with steadiness and respect for individual pacing.
You are never asked to share more than feels true.
Silence is welcome. So is speech.
What matters is not how much you do, but how fully you remain.

The following reflections are shared to offer a sense of the pace and experience of being met without pressure.
'You made me feel safe that I wasn’t going to feel squashed, shut down, or exposed in my vulnerability.'
'I have loved growing alongside you and I will keep showing up for myself. Thank you.'
'This gave me the space to recognise where I was, so I could choose consciously how to move forward.'
Who Holds This Space
Lead with Love is held by Julia Black.
Her work is rooted in relational integrity, nervous-system awareness, and a lived understanding of what it means to remain present without self-abandonment.
She does not lead by direction or prescription.
She holds space for clarity to emerge through presence, honesty, and consent.
Julia’s role is not to tell you who to become.
It is to notice when you leave yourself and to remain steady enough that you can return.
This space is held with care, attunement, and respect for individual pacing.
'With Julia's compassion I feel empowered and equipped to take action for myself and my family.' Ceri
The Invitation
The Invitation Lead With Love is offered to a small number of women at a time.
This is intentional. Depth matters more than scale.
You are welcome to take your time here. There is no expectation to decide quickly, and nothing is taken from you if you choose not to step forward.
Because this space is relational, entry begins with a conversation.
If this space continues to meet you, you are invited to book a one-to-one alignment call with Julia.
This is not a sales call. It is a quiet, grounded conversation to sense fit, timing, and readiness — together.
If, after that conversation, it feels right to step in, you will be invited to do so.
If not, that choice is equally respected
