Lena Thompson
I help professional men and women to overcome burnout by connecting to their purpose. My passion is to inject purpose into organisations to inspire their people to lead with authenticity and impact.
I have spent over 15 years in a corporate arena, earning 6 figures, flexible working hours, kids in private schools and amazing holidays. On the outside, I had it all, but inside I was crumbling. Not only I felt guilty for wanting more in life, I felt frustrated for not knowing what this 'more' was and struggled to express my thoughts and feelings. It affected my relationship and well-being. I was mentally and emotionally burnt out, even though i did not know it then. This caused fights at home, poor performance at my job - I struggled to find a meaning in my life, and felt deeply unfulfilled.
In 2018 I discovered personal development and began to realise that everything I was experiencing in my life, was a bi-product of my inner reality. I wanted things to change. I wanted to feel more empowered. I wanted to have confidence to say what I want and how I felt. I wanted to find my purpose and discover who I was underneath all the layers.
In 2019, I left my job, my relationship fell apart and I started a new business. I invested multiple 5 figures in coaches and mentors, and after a year, I had another burnout out, and then another. I was lost, frustrated and scared. For the first time in my life, I truly did not know what to do.
During that time, I finally allowed myself to rest and reflect what was going right and what was going wrong. It was during that time when I came across the system of Human Design which contains our energetic DNA and helps us understand how we are energetically wired to perform, make decisions and take actions. I felt tremendous relief realising that I was not broken, and that there was nothing wrong with me. I was just in total energetic misalignment with pretty much everything in my life.
In 2021 after being through the self-healing journey I setup coaching & speaking business where I now help my clients to avoid burnout by connecting to their purpose.
My mission is to inject sense of purpose into organisations and connect leaders to their purpose, because purpose driven leaders inspire and energise their teams to do great work.
I was a keynote speaker at Feminine Leadership and Thought Leadership summits in 2022.
I spoke on 5 podcasts, published articles in Brainz magazine and grown my LinkedIn following to over 8000.
I partnered up with a recognised speaker and a mentor in the corporate leadership area and we are running a webinar in June 'Attract and Retain Your Talent' aimed at senior HR managers, Head of People and Culture and Talent Acquisition teams.
I also partnered up with the academic coach and mentor for teens coach, and together we are running Family Dynamics workshop, aimed at parents with teens helping them to overcome stress and become more engage and fulfilled with their lives.
I was awarded social media award for a local franchise I own in Woking (www.drivingmissdaisy.com).
