For years, Founder and Principle Consultant Lucy Quick looked like she had it all together, climbing the ladder in corporate marketing, leading teams, hitting goals, and growing global brands. But beneath the surface, she was spiralling.
Disconnected from what truly mattered, Lucy struggled with boundaries, relied on unhealthy coping mechanisms, and found herself stuck in a relentless cycle of overworking, people-pleasing, and pushing through. Years spent in fear-based, high-pressure environments gradually wore down her self-worth, leaving her a shadow of herself.
Eventually, the pressure caught up with her and she hit a hard burnout and personal rock bottom. That turning point sparked a complete life reset.
She got sober. Rebuilt her habits. Reconnected with her true self. She left the corporate world, retrained as a High Performance Coach, began postgraduate studies in psychology, and launched two purpose-driven businesses to help others create lives of freedom, alignment, and sustainable success. She successfully sold one of those businesses in 2023.
Today, through Balanced Elite, Lucy is on a mission to help high achievers and organisations create healthier, psychologically safe, high-performing cultures long term.
Blending lived experience with evidence-based frameworks and a human-first approach, she supports individuals and teams to shift from survival mode to sustainable performance and fulfilment.
This work matters to me because I’ve lived both sides: the burnout, and the breakthrough. My story isn’t just mine. It’s a path I now help others walk, whether they’re leading teams, navigating life, or both.
With a foundation of 20 years’ global corporate experience in Australia and the UK, Lucy brings a rare blend of strategic insight, lived experience, and formal training to her work in leadership, wellbeing, and culture transformation.
