A coaching approach designed for life after divorce & major change

Instead of trying to “go back to how things were”, we rebuild your performance on a foundation that matches who you are now – mentally, emotionally and professionally.

1. Rebuilding identity at work

Major life events change how you see yourself. We clarify:

  • Who you are now in your work and life
  • What you want this next chapter of your career to look like
  • Which parts of your old identity still serve you – and which don't
  • How to show up with grounded confidence rather than performance pressure

2. Restoring clarity, focus and follow-through

After big change, focus and execution often drop. Together we rebuild:

  • Your daily and weekly rhythm
  • How you prioritise what actually matters
  • Systems to support consistent follow-through
  • Simple structures that protect your time and energy

This helps you move from scattered or reactive into steady, deliberate action.

3. Redesigning how you make decisions

We look at your work through a decision-making lens, including:

  • Where fear or guilt is driving your choices
  • Patterns of over-committing or avoiding tough calls
  • How to make aligned decisions under pressure
  • What needs to change so decisions feel clean and sustainable

When your decision architecture changes, performance becomes easier and more consistent.

4. Sustaining high performance without burnout

Performance after major life change requires a different kind of fuel. We help you:

  • Create performance goals that are actually humane
  • Set boundaries that protect your capacity
  • Build recovery into your work rhythm
  • Grow your career in a way that doesn’t repeat old patterns

Strong performance, grounded in self-respect, becomes your new normal.

Results you can expect

Everyone's story is different, but clients typically experience outcomes like:

  • Clearer sense of who they are now at work and in life
  • Restored focus, energy and professional momentum
  • More confident decision-making and boundaries
  • Improved performance without relying on perfectionism or overwork
  • Greater emotional stability at work during a challenging season
  • A next chapter that feels chosen, not just survived

“I thought my career was permanently damaged by my divorce. Within a few months, I felt clearer, more grounded, and my performance reviews reflected it.”

“Instead of trying to be who I was before, I'm building a version of success that actually fits who I am now - and my work is better for it.”

Who this is for

  • You're a male or female leader, founder, or professional navigating a transition

  • Feel like you've “lost your edge” or no longer recognise yourself at work
  • Want to rebuild on a stronger, more honest foundation

Performance Coaching FAQ: Strategic Reconstruction for High-Achievers

What is performance coaching for high-achievers and executives?

Performance coaching at Primary Self is a precision-focused process for executives, founders, and professionals rebuilding after major life disruptions like divorce. We focus on Decision Architecture and Performance Restoration to bridge the gap between capability and daily execution.

How does performance coaching differ from therapy after divorce?

While therapy focuses on healing the past, our performance coaching is built for reconstruction. We help high-achieving men and women across Australia recalibrate their identity and restore professional standards of excellence through structured, time-bound coaching focused on the "Next Chapter."

Is performance coaching available Australia-wide?

Yes. Based in Sydney and Adelaide, Primary Self provides performance coaching for high-achievers Australia-wide via secure video consultation. We specifically help leaders navigate the "Execution Gap" post-separation regardless of their location.

What is 'Decision Architecture' in the context of professional performance?

Decision Architecture is the rebuilding of decision-making frameworks that often crack after major life events. We identify where fear, guilt, or second-guessing is driving your professional choices and install new, aligned operating principles.

How does identity reconstruction help my professional career?

Major life events change how you see yourself. Identity reconstruction helps you clarify who you are now in your work and life, allowing you to show up with grounded confidence rather than performance pressure, which is vital for long-term leadership success.

What is the 'Execution Gap' in professional performance?

The Execution Gap is the distance between your known professional capabilities and your actual day-to-day output following a major life change. Our coaching identifies these foundational cracks to restore your strategic edge. We often use PSYCH-K® to stop overthinking and bridge the Execution Gap at the subconscious level.

Who is the ideal fit for this coaching reconstruction?

This is designed for high-achieving professionals, leaders, and business owners who are typically 9-18 months past a major disruption. If you've "lost your edge" or are struggling with inconsistent performance, this structured, ROI-focused approach is for you.
