Who do you actually talk to when the problem is the business you built?
Hi, I’m Merrily!
Why work with me:
I'm not a traditional corporate trainer. I bring something harder to find: a genuine understanding of both the operational pressures of business and the psychological dynamics that drive — or derail — performance.
My approach is direct, practical and human. I don't deliver slide decks full of theory. I work with what's actually happening in your organisation and help you move forward.
People are your most complex asset — and your greatest opportunity.
I work with founders, executives and business leaders who know that the human side of their organisation matters, but aren't always sure how to address it effectively.
With 15+ years in corporate environments and a background in business psychology and wellbeing, I bring both the boardroom perspective and the people-first approach. I've seen what happens when emotional intelligence is treated as an afterthought — and what's possible when it isn't.
What I offer businesses:
Executive and Leadership Support One-to-one consulting for founders and senior leaders navigating high-pressure decisions, team dynamics, or personal performance. Confidential, structured, and grounded in both business reality and psychological insight.
Workplace Wellbeing Workshops Interactive sessions designed to improve emotional awareness, communication and resilience across your team. Practical, evidence-informed, and built around your organisation's actual challenges — not a generic off-the-shelf programme.
Business Psychology Consulting Support with the people-related aspects of your business: culture, decision-making, conflict, change management. I help you see what's really going on beneath the surface and give you tools to address it.
Here is the short list of the challenges I work with that come from businesses of all sizes: from chaotic but fun startups to serious and well-established enterprises.
