Aligned & Activated is my 12 week breakthrough program for high-achieving women who are done shrinking to fit. Six private 1:1 sessions, a fortnight apart, using Emotional Change Technique (ECT), NLP and hypnosis to clear what's keeping you stuck at the root, so you can lead your work, your family and your life from wholeness instead of hustle.
30 minutes, no pressure, just a real conversation about what's going on for you.
If you nodded at more than two of these, you're in the right place.
"Working with Alisha completely changed how I respond as a parent. I no longer jump to worst-case scenarios or feel overwhelmed. I'm calmer, more present, and our home feels more collaborative."
30 minutes, no pressure, just a real conversation about what's going on for you.
You already know what you should be doing. You know about boundaries, self-care, rest and saying no.
The problem is that knowing isn't the same as changing.
Most of what keeps high-achieving women stuck isn't a lack of strategy. It's a belief formed years ago, often in a single moment, that still runs the show.
Those beliefs don't respond to willpower or better habits. They sit underneath your conscious mind, quietly shaping how you work, how you love, how you rest and what you allow yourself to want.
I know this from my own life. In 2004, I was sitting on a beach in Turkey, completely exhausted. At work I was praised, valued and told I was essential, and I hadn't had a meaningful pay rise in five years. I said out loud to nobody in particular: something has to change.
My phone rang. Two weeks later I sat the hardest interview of my career, and walked out having tripled my salary in one conversation. My circumstances hadn't changed. What changed was what I believed I deserved.
The ceiling was never out there. It was in here.
That's why talking about it for years often doesn't shift it, and it's why this program works differently. We don't manage the pattern. We clear it at the root, gently, without you having to relive it.
I arrived in Australia with a backpack in 2007, and I never went home. From the outside, I made it work: a career, a family, a life in a country that wasn't mine.
What nobody saw was the cost. Fifteen hour days that felt normal. Cortisol flooding my system before my feet touched the floor. Panic attacks so frequent I stopped calling them panic attacks.
Then came a family trip to Bali. I was so depleted I couldn't get on the plane. So I stayed home, and for the first time in years, I stopped.
I rested. I walked on the beach. Then I stopped managing the symptoms and went looking for the beliefs underneath them: that I had to earn my rest, prove my worth and hold it all together alone.
When the belief shifts, your life follows. Every time.
Aligned & Activated is the work that changed my life, shaped into twelve weeks for you.
This work isn't only about feeling better. It changes what you actually do with your life.
Jessie had dreamed of starting her own sustainable t-shirt company for years. She was stuck in her head about what a business owner looked like, and she couldn't see herself in that picture. So the dream stayed a dream.
Her transformation came in two parts. First, the emotional work: clearing the old narratives and feelings that had kept her stuck for years. Then the practical shift, and it came fast. After just three sessions, the belief about who gets to be a business owner was gone, and she started the business.
Other women I've worked with have:
When the belief holding you back is gone, what becomes possible for you?
"Since completing Aligned & Activated, I've released limiting beliefs, strengthened my relationships, started a business, and am actively creating my dream life through small daily actions. Alisha is an absolute gift to women, and I couldn't recommend this program more."
Over twelve weeks, we work through four areas, tailored entirely to you and what you bring.
Reclaim what matters and release what no longer fits. You'll discover what alignment actually feels like, in your nervous system and in your calendar.
Using ECT, NLP and coaching, we find where your limiting beliefs began and clear the emotion holding them in place. Burnout, people-pleasing, perfectionism, self-doubt: we go to the root.
You'll create clear, embodied boundaries that protect your peace and support your goals, without guilt or over-explaining.
We re-anchor your story around who you are now and how you want to feel, then use hypnosis to strengthen that new state so it becomes your default, not a good day.
30 minutes, no pressure, just a real conversation about what's going on for you.
This is for the woman who looks like she has it all together, and underneath feels overwhelmed, stuck, or like she can never switch off.
It's for the corporate leader who's unshakeable in every meeting and running on empty everywhere else. The mother who has lost track of herself somewhere between the school run and the inbox. The woman building something of her own while doubting she's allowed to.
It's for the woman who is ready. Not ready to hear more theory, but ready to actually change.
This isn't for you if you're looking for a quick fix you don't have to show up for, or if you're not ready to look honestly at what's underneath. This work asks something of you. It gives back far more.
This isn't talk therapy, and it isn't mindset coaching that leaves you with a list of affirmations and the same old patterns. Aligned & Activated combines three modalities, each doing a specific job.
ECT finds and releases limiting beliefs at their root, gently and without reliving the memory.
Builds and reinforces the new state once the old belief has gone.
Turn that inner shift into real changes in how you live and work.
I'm a certified Emotional Change Technique practitioner, trained in NLP and hypnotherapy, and I bring twenty years of naturopathy and biomedical science to how I understand your body and nervous system.
The result is change that sticks, because it happens at the level where the pattern actually lives.
"Revisiting the timeline of my life and witnessing the exact moments that shaped my limiting beliefs was nothing short of transformational. I was able to give myself what I needed in those moments. It felt like a complete reset. For the first time, I met myself with compassion and healed from within. What I carried for so long no longer exists in my present."
"Before working with Alisha, I constantly jumped to worst-case scenarios whenever my child made a small mistake, which was affecting our family dynamic. Through NLP, Alisha helped me understand the why behind my reactions and release my catastrophising patterns. I feel lighter, emotionally freer, and our parenting approach is far more collaborative."
"I don't know what Alisha does and I don't really need to know, but I do know that I was a very different person from the one that lay down on the table and the one that left the room after the session. I have never felt so relaxed, at peace and happy with a clear head."
"Alisha has a calming quality that creates immediate relaxation. You feel like you are in the space of someone who genuinely cares but will not invade your space. I recommend her for anyone that feels stuck in their head and is in need of a gentle but effective release from whatever is troubling them."

I'm Alisha Waterman, a transformational coach for high-achieving women who look like they have it all together on the outside, and underneath feel overwhelmed, stuck, or like they can never switch off.
I'm a certified Emotional Change Technique practitioner, trained in NLP and hypnotherapy. I have around twenty years in naturopathy, a UK qualification in biomedical sciences and nutrition, and I'm a qualified yoga and meditation teacher. I'm also a published author in Anthologia Issue 3, with my memoir piece I Came Anyway.
Over a twenty year career, I've supported countless women through energy work, coaching, career coaching, mindfulness, and yoga and wellbeing teaching.
I've coached alongside a corporate career for close to fifteen years, so I know exactly what it's like to hold both worlds at once. I still do.
As featured in
"I'd tried so many different techniques over the years that I genuinely believed feeling stuck was my permanent state. At times the work was heavy and confronting, but Alisha carried me through every step with such clear direction, deep acceptance, and absolutely zero judgement."
"I walked in the room and sensed immediately a spirit of calm and renewal. The process itself was simple yet magical. Like many forms of healing it defies logic, and because of the environment Alisha had created, I was able to just accept and enter into the spirit of the session."
Many of my clients said exactly that. Most approaches work with the conscious mind, talking about the problem. ECT works with where the belief was formed, which is why women who've tried everything often find this is the thing that finally moves.
Look at what staying where you are is already costing you. The energy you pour into old patterns every single day. The sleep, the presence with the people you love, the opportunities you talk yourself out of. My clients have released beliefs they carried for decades, strengthened their relationships and started businesses. That change doesn't end when our twelve weeks do. It's yours for life.
Six sessions over twelve weeks, one a fortnight, on Google Meet and scheduled around your life. And honestly, the women who feel they have the least time are usually the ones who need this most.
No. ECT is designed to clear the emotion attached to a memory without re-experiencing it. The work can feel deep, but it's gentle, and you're guided and supported the whole way.
You're aware and in control throughout. Hypnosis is simply a deeply relaxed, focused state, much like the moment just before you fall asleep.
All sessions are 1:1 on Google Meet, 90 to 120 minutes each, at times that suit you. They're spaced a fortnight apart on purpose. This work can stir up emotions, and real change happens in the space between sessions, as you feel, process and put each shift into practice.
A relaxed 30 minute conversation on Google Meet. You tell me what's happening, ask anything you like, and we see together whether Aligned & Activated is right for you.
Your $500 deposit secures your place and comes off your total. Deposits are non-refundable, which is why I only ask for one after our discovery call, once we've both agreed this is the right fit for you.
None at all. I guide you through everything.
The Switch Off Sessions ($47) is a gentle way to experience how I work first. Many women start there.
Pay in full, or start with a $500 deposit and spread the rest over 4 fortnightly payments of $1,097. Need something different? We'll sort it on your call.
That's up to 12 hours of private 1:1 work with me, personalised hypnosis recordings made just for you, a workbook and journal, and support between every session. Across twelve weeks, it works out to just over $400 a week, often less than what staying stuck is quietly taking from you.
I take 6 new Aligned & Activated clients each month, so every woman gets my full attention.
Every journey starts with a free discovery call. It's not a sales pitch. It's your chance to ask questions, tell me what's going on, and see if this is the right fit for you.
30 minutes, no pressure, just a real conversation about what's going on for you.
You don't need more strategies. You need to stop carrying beliefs that were never yours to hold.
The woman who rests without guilt, who says no without over-explaining, who leads from wholeness instead of hustle, she isn't someone you have to become. She's who you are underneath it all.
Twelve weeks. Let's bring her back.
"It felt like a reset. I met myself in those old stories and finally let them go."
"Alisha's gift of healing is one that is led through the warmth of her heart, the calmness of her soul and the joy of life she exudes through her very being."
