How 1:1 Coaching Fast-Tracks Your Growth

Discover how 1:1 coaching with Lucy Quick accelerates clarity, confidence and results — without burning out.

At Balanced Elite, we know that sustainable success doesn’t come from working harder - it comes from aligning deeply with your values, energy, and goals. That’s where 1:1 coaching comes in.

My journey into high performance coaching wasn’t something I planned,  it evolved organically. Through burnout, sobriety, personal transformation, and support from some incredible mentors, I rewired my mindset, habits and definition of success. That evolution laid the foundations for the frameworks and coaching approach I now use to support others.

What Is High Performance Coaching?

High performance coaching is a personalised, evidence-based approach designed to help ambitious high achieving people perform at their best  without burning out. Unlike traditional coaching that may focus on one area (like career or mindset), this work is holistic. We look at your habits, leadership style, wellbeing, clarity, and systems - because they’re all connected.

In sessions, we focus on:

  • Deep self-awareness: uncovering blind spots, values, and emotional triggers

  • Aligned goal-setting: setting goals that reflect who you truly are, not who you think you “should” be

  • Behaviour change: building habits that stick

  • Burnout prevention: creating space, structure, and systems that protect your energy

  • Boundaries & leadership: helping you lead yourself and others with clarity and courage

Why 1:1 Coaching Works (and Works Fast)

In a noisy, over-scheduled world, personalised coaching cuts through the clutter. It gives you focused space to think, recalibrate, and take aligned action.

Here’s how it fast-tracks your growth:

1. Clearer Focus

You’ll get crystal clear on your priorities, goals and values. That clarity drives momentum.

2. Personalised Strategy

Forget one-size-fits-all advice. Coaching gives you practical tools tailored to your life and your leadership style.

3. Accountability That Feels Good

Knowing someone’s in your corner (and won’t let you coast) makes change more achievable and sustainable.

4. Resilience & Burnout Prevention

You’ll build the inner capacity and external systems to keep showing up, without running on empty.

5. Lasting Confidence

When you consistently take action aligned with your values, self-trust grows and that’s when things really shift.

Real Growth Comes From Real Alignment

My work is grounded in my signature BRAVE™ Method — a framework for burnout prevention and sustainable success that supports you to:

  • Set and hold strong Boundaries

  • Build space for meaningful Rest

  • Lead and live from Authenticity

  • Reconnect with your Vitality

  • Practice radical Empathy (especially for yourself)

We don’t just chase goals. We build lives, careers and businesses that feel good from the inside out.

One of the core principles of high performance coaching is the idea of raising the bar - not just in what you achieve, but in how you show up. Together, we’ll challenge your comfort zones, stretch what you believe is possible, and upgrade the internal patterns that have been holding you back.

Through personalised feedback, strategic interventions, and powerful self-inquiry, I’ll support you to shift limiting beliefs and step into your full potential, with clarity, courage and intention.

Is 1:1 Coaching Right for You?

You might be ready for coaching if you’re:

  • Feeling stuck, exhausted or like you're not living up to your potential

  • Leading others but struggling to lead yourself

  • On the edge of burnout (or already there)

  • Ready to shift old patterns, negative habits and start showing up with clarity and confidence

  • Tired of going it alone and ready for real support
