Mental Performance Coaching · Cécile Bastien Remy

The Thinking That Got You Here Is Not The Thinking That Gets You Further.

High-performing leaders don't struggle because they lack skill. They struggle because the voice in their head is running an old programme one built for survival, not for the level they're operating at now.

Mental performance coaching is about changing that programme. Not by fighting it but by understanding it, and choosing something better

Your expertise deserves to be heard. Your influence deserves to scale.

Let’s make sure it does.

Certified Coach - Positive Intelligence - Credential ID 1159

Not Therapy. Not Motivation. A Performance Edge.

This coaching is designed for executives, senior leaders, and high-potential professionals who are already performing well and know there's another level available to them. The work is practical, fast-moving, and immediately applicable.

Cécile uses the Positive Intelligence (PQ) framework one of the most evidence-based approaches to mental fitness, combined with 15+ years of executive coaching experience, her own story of rebuilding under extreme pressure, and a sharp ability to ask the question that actually changes things.

You might be the right fit if:

You're successful by every external measure and still feel like you're running on empty
You know what you need to do. You're not doing it. And you're not sure why.
You're about to step into a bigger role and want to be ready mentally, not just strategically
You want to lead with more authority and less anxiety

You're navigating a career transition and need to stay grounded while everything shifts

Common themes we work on:

Self-sabotage patterns that are costing you influence and energy
Impostor syndrome at senior level the louder it gets, the less visible the cause
Communication under pressure: boards, peers, difficult conversations
Building resilience that actually holds when things go wrong

Leadership identity being the leader you want to be, not the one your saboteurs invented

Right Questions. Practical Tools. Lasting Change.

Unlike coaching that relies primarily on techniques, this work is built around the right question at the right moment one that opens up the thinking you didn't know you were avoiding.

The tools you develop here transfer directly into your daily work: how you show up in meetings, how you handle setbacks, how you lead when you don't have all the answers.

Cécile is available last-minute when something urgent comes up, a board presentation tomorrow, a difficult conversation today, a decision that can't wait. For leaders, this is not a nice-to-have. It's the reason this coaching works in the real world.

The Transformations Clients Report Most:

Inner Freedom

Stepping back from your thoughts instead of being controlled by them. Choosing your response instead of defaulting to your pattern.

Resilience that holds

When the crisis hits: job loss, restructuring, high-stakes failure you don't spiral. You get grounded, and you move.

Authority & Voice

Getting promoted. Getting heard. Getting ideas across in rooms where it counts and the odds haven't always been equal.

"Working with Cécile has been a truly transformative experience. She helped me understand self-sabotage and identify patterns and beliefs that had been quietly holding me back for years. The biggest change has been in how I relate to my own thoughts. Where I once felt stuck or defined by them, I now feel capable of stepping back, observing, and choosing differently. That sense of inner freedom has opened the door to growth that previously felt out of reach."

— Ines, Executive Leader, Banking Industry

"When I lost my job, I did not fall into panic or depression. Thanks to Cécile's coaching, I felt prepared, grounded, and able to navigate the situation calmly. The impact is long-lasting: I continue to use her tools in my own life, in my new work environment, and even share them with others facing challenges. Her coaching provides practical tools that can be applied daily to transform a career into a success rather than a struggle."

— Sophie, MDP, Consulting

"Without Cécile I would not have been able to get promoted or get my ideas across in a male-dominated industry."

— Julia, Head of Investment, Banking Industry
