Lighten the Load Day
1-day collaboration with me to, via WhatsApp, to reduce the noise in your head, and increase the space in your life
Life has a way of continually piling on more and more mental load. What you have been juggling OK before now can suddenly feel insurmountable.
Maybe you can relate to one or more of these:
You have a big life event coming up which brings a load more admin and headspace with it.
You’re hitting perimenopause and brain fog is reducing your ability to juggle.
You’re going through a tough patch with extra emotional drains.
Your usual routine is soon to be disrupted (e.g. school holidays, changing job or having an operation).
You’re simply tired of the never-ending juggle and you need to choose what to put down before you drop the whole lot.
A Lighten The Load Day with me will turn the overwhelm you’re feeling right now on its head.
During our day together, I will help you:
Work out what actually needs your attention now, what can wait, and what you can stop worrying about altogether.
Adapt your routines when life changes, instead of trying to force the old ones to work.
Prepare for busy seasons before they become overwhelming.
Tackle big projects with a plan to make them as manageable as possible.
From 8.30am until 8.30pm on the day you book, you’ll have access to me via WhatsApp (text or voice notes, whatever feels easiest for you).
We can cover anything and everything that's on your mind - all with the goal of lightening your mental load.
Hi, I'm Lesley!
I’m an Efficiency Expert, mum of 2 sleep thieves, Mental Load Mentor and Lifestyle Manager.
For 15 years, my day job has literally been to find quicker and easier ways to do things, and I’ve become pretty good at it.
When sleep deprivation hit as a new mum, there was no way I could get everything done on such little sleep. So I found another way.
I ruthlessly prioritised, I let things go, I found quicker ways of doing things. I made sure I could catch up on sleep.
My eldest is now 4 years old and I use the same tactics to juggle daily life, life events and extra-juggly times of the year, and help others do the same.
It's amazing what a difference an outside perspective can make.
Think of me as your life-simplifying wingwoman. I’ll be in your pocket (via Whatsapp messages), ready to help with everyday stuff that is taking all your energy, driving you nuts and eating up all your free time.
3 ways it works really well:
Putting "emergency" plans in place - things that will have a big impact, fast.
Deep diving into something specific, like how to juggle the upcoming school holidays, prepare for motherhood or plan your wedding.
Or tackling lots of smaller things - like getting your laundry pile under control, stopping yourself losing your keys, or creating a system so you always know whether tomorrow is a non-uniform day, sports day or an inset day.
Here are some example questions we could chat about, but you're equally welcome to simply turn up, offload what's on your mind, and we'll work through it together.
What's Included?
12 hours of 1-2-1 access to me via WhatsApp (text or voice messages, whichever feels easiest to you) on the date of your choice.
Price: £70
How I Do Things
Relaxed and flexible
Message me whenever it suits you. Long rambles, tiny voice notes, scattered thoughts…whatever works for you.
We can chat back-and-forth quickly, or with pauses. Both work brilliantly. And in fact those gaps to reflect are often where the magic happens.
No new tools or logins
We’ll use WhatsApp messages and voice notes to chat, because you probably already have it (if you don’t we can use an alternative messaging app) and you don’t have to remember any login details, so that’s one less thing to worry about.
WhatsApp allows us to chat whilst going about our normal lives - you don’t have to be sitting at a computer at a certain time and it definitely doesn’t matter if you’re still in your pjs.
Results, fast
I know you’re busy. That’s why you’re here! Our chats won’t be filled with polite chit-chat; we will get straight to the point. I will guide you towards quick wins that will make your week feel instantly lighter.

Who this service is for
Lighten The Load is for you if:
Your brain feels like it has 47 tabs open and you don't know which one to tackle first
Life has suddenly got more complicated and your old routines just aren't working anymore
You've got a busy season coming up and want to get ahead of it instead of firefighting your way through.
There's a project you've been avoiding because it feels too big to even start.
You know something needs to change, but you can't see the wood for the trees.
FAQs
People tend to speak to me off and on several times during the day. They message me around other commitments so it doesn't feel like something they have to find time for.
How long it takes really depends on what's on your mind, and how quickly we land on the steps you'd like to take to make things easier.
Rest assured I've carefully designed my approach to be very flexible to fit around everything else you have going on - I know time is tight!
I recommend WhatsApp but I'm happy to use most other messaging apps if you have a preference.
WhatsApp works well because you probably already have it on your phone and know how to use it, and it's free!
You can send me written messages or leave voice notes - or a combination. I will always check which you would prefer from me too.
Yes! I'm glad you asked. I offer free 30 minute calls (called Quick Fixer) following the same approach, so you can see how it works and if you think I'm the right person to help you. Find out more here.
That’s OK - you might not have the time to do the things we decide will help but you will leave with a manageable plan to do them. Often the hardest part is figuring out the plan - and that’s where I come in!
Yes - we can figure a lot out in a day! But if you decide you would like more time with me, we can discuss which of my services will work best based on what your needs are.
We can chat back and forth all day! We will cover as much as we can, and I will steer you towards the things that will have the biggest impact. If you decide you’d like more time with me after the day, we can discuss your options.
You might also like to check out my Mental Load Mentoring service which is a 6-week version of my Lighten The Load Day.
You’re not alone! Some people start of with a brain dump - which is completely fine by me! I can take the lead and steer us towards the things that will make the biggest difference.
You can see some example questions you can ask me here, or get in touch via email or the chat box and I will help you work out if this is the right service for you.
