Real confidence isn't built on the surface.

It's built by working on the patterns underneath where self-doubt actually lives.

26 minutes, in your own time, in your own space.

Circuit Breaker 2 Sessions

For when you need to interrupt the pattern and get back into action.

One deep-dive session to identify and shift what's keeping you stuck. One focused coaching session to get clear and move forward with a plan.


You'll leave with less noise in your head, more trust in yourself, and a concrete next step.

🔵 The Confidence Intensive 6 Sessions

For female leaders and professionals ready to back themselves in how they show up, speak up, and lead.

We work on three pillars:

  • Mindset: overcoming self-doubt or mental blocks

  • Strategy + capability: developing the skills, expertise and approach to lead effectively

  • Implementation: turning strategy into action

Strategic coaching and deep mindset work for the best of both worlds. So your confidence has the right foundation.

What clients say

Hi, I'm Sabine.

Sabine Lehner executive coach Sydney celebrating confident leadership

My story didn't start in coaching, it started in finance.

I spent the first decade of my career in finance and controlling roles across different industries. Within ten years I had to be honest with myself. My role wasn't giving me any joy, meaning or sense of purpose. And I started doubting what I was doing.

My last role was in pharma, where crisis mode was normal. The pressure mounted, the self-doubt deepened, and one Thursday afternoon I left and never returned.

Six months of coaching and honest reflection later, I changed direction completely. I went back to university, joined consulting, moved countries and built something new.

That year 2012 when I turned my life around was also when the idea for Turnaround Practice was born. And that's where the name comes from.

I work with female leaders and professionals who are highly capable but doubt themselves, and I know that territory firsthand.

People describe me as practical, direct, and real. With a talent for surfacing what's really going on underneath, and getting you back on track.

And yes, sometimes I'm funny. That helps too.
