Spending all day in meetings, with no time to do the actual work?
The problem isn’t the meetings. It’s what they are revealing about how your team works together.
If meetings are slowing you down, this is for you
AI is here, and with new technology comes new expectations. You and your team are trying to adapt, but you simply don't have the time to figure out how.
Why? Because you're spending your days in back-to-back meetings that should be helping you to move forward, but have you spinning your wheels and working longer days.
What if, by changing how your team meets, you could:
save time
improve wellbeing
make decisions faster
solve complex problems together
boost how your people feel about the work itself
I work with leaders who are ready to call ‘time’ on ineffective meetings and make space for the work that matters more.
Through a blend of coaching, facilitation and the Meeting RESET™ method, I support leaders to understand the impact of your meetings and hybrid working practices, and design solutions that stick.
Why? Because…. life is too short for bad meetings.
-
Meetings are the pressure point - where cracks in leadership and culture show up first. They are a window into how your people collaborate, communicate and make decisions. Get your meetings right, everything else starts to shift.
-
Senior leaders, heads of department, managers and team leads who are stuck in back-to-back meetings with no time to think. This is for when you're ready to get control of your time at work and then make changes to how the wider team works.
-
Most approaches give you tactical tips or send in a facilitator to run the big meetings on your behalf. The Meeting RESET™ is different. You and your team identify what's not working, co-design what you need and build the habits to sustain the change yourselves. The solutions are context specific and you build the capability/skills as you go.
-
If you're tired of firefighting and the collective waste of time in meetings, then yes. This isn't about making meetings slightly more bearable. It's about rethinking how your team works together and putting systems in place to sustain the change long term.

Book a free 30-minute call. Tell me what's happening, I'll ask questions and share my honest take on what might be playing out. I'll share how I can help, but there will be no pressure or sales pitch as it is not my style.
Here’s how I can help

Meeting RESET™ Programme
A structured programme for leaders and teams who are ready to stop defaulting to meetings and start intentionally designing how they meet and work together. Through honest conversation and co-design, you'll identify what's not working, cut the waste and build habits to sustain the change. Available as a public cohort or tailored in-house.

Meeting Design & Facilitation
For high-impact meetings that matter (and cost) the most. I work with you to understand what you're trying to achieve, co-design a session that delivers and coach you to facilitate it yourself. Often used for a cluster of recurring team meetings, business planning, governance meetings, project kickoffs and discovery workshops.

Leadership Coaching
1:1 coaching for leaders navigating AI adoption and the human side of change, including how you work together as a team. I trained as a coach after 20+ years in change management and business analysis. So I don't just listen - I see the system and ask questions to help you figure out your options and choose a path forward with confidence.
Meet Julia
Hi, I'm Julia.
After a career in business analysis and change management working inside large and complex organisations, I can confidently say - I have lived the problem of meetings from the inside.
Over the years my job has slowly evolved into "professional meeting goer". Working in corporate is no longer as sustainable or as enjoyable as it used to be. And when I saw talented colleagues also burning out, I knew something had to be done.
I believe how we meet matters. That's why I founded Mindful Meetings.
As a qualified coach, facilitator and change manager - I take a systems thinking lens to the problem of meetings and help leaders and their teams modernise how they work together.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear what's going on for you.
