For women in yachting

You can love yachting and still need something for yourself.

You say yes to one more request, then lie awake wishing you had answered differently. Or the season ends and, without the next task in front of you, you are unsure what you want. You do not have to dismiss those feelings because the job looks good from the outside.

What would you like to handle differently?

You may be working onboard, building a shore-based career or deciding what comes after your last season. We begin with your situation, rather than expecting every woman in yachting to need the same thing.

  • Asking for clarification without apologising for the question.
  • Making a boundary clear when you usually say yes and regret it.
  • Taking feedback seriously without making it a verdict on your worth.
  • Deciding whether your next season still fits the life you want.

Read the text alternative

Over breakfast and coffee footage, the on-screen cards read: “Feeling pressured to say yes?” “Try: Let me check and get back to you.” “Give yourself time.”

Descriptive summary, not a verbatim transcript.

You can start with a brief enquiry. You do not need to describe your whole history or name your yacht, employer or colleagues.

We discuss what you want help with, your location and whether you can join from a private, off-duty setting. If working together is appropriate, we agree the focus, format and fee before you decide.

Private coaching can include Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), where suitable and separately agreed. We explain any proposed hypnosis work before you consent. You can ask questions, decline an exercise or stop.

A practical workshop, separate from private RTT

A small-group workshop can focus on everyday situations such as asking which task takes priority or deciding how to seek support. The emphasis is on present-day reflection and practising useful language.

Sharing personal experiences is optional. The workshop does not include group regression or require anyone to describe distressing events. An organisation enquiry starts a discussion about whether a workshop is a suitable option.

Your employer does not decide what you share

If an organisation funds support, we agree the privacy arrangements before you take part. Private-session content is not included in employer feedback. Any administrative information that needs to be shared is explained in advance.

Confidentiality has limits, including applicable legal duties and necessary safeguarding disclosures. In a group, participants are asked to respect privacy, but another participant’s behaviour cannot be guaranteed.

Work with Signe

I am Signe, Holistic Coach & Certified RTT Practitioner. My background includes yachting, and my RTT certification was awarded in 2022. I will ask about your experience rather than assume I already understand it.

When the situation needs more than coaching

Bullying, harassment, unsafe work or an immediate threat are not confidence problems for you to solve. Personal coaching cannot investigate an incident, enforce safe working conditions or replace appropriate reporting and specialist support.

If you are in immediate danger, seek local emergency help or use the vessel’s emergency procedure. If a usual reporting contact is involved in the problem, consider an independent support route. This website is not an emergency service.

Tell me what you would like help with

A short, general message is enough to begin. You can also tell me if there are practical limits on how you can be contacted.

Before you decide

Questions you may have.

Is this only for crew?

No. Enquiries are welcome from adult women working onboard, in shore-based roles or considering life beyond yachting. We discuss whether the support fits your needs.

Can I join a private session from the yacht?

We need to discuss your location, privacy, off-duty time and connection first. A shared cabin or an interrupted watch may not be a suitable setting. Do not join while driving, on duty or operating equipment.

Do I have to try hypnosis?

No. We discuss the approach before you decide. Hypnosis is not something you are required to accept because you made an enquiry, attended a workshop or received employer funding.

Will you tell my employer what I say?

Private-session content is not part of employer reporting. Funding and administrative arrangements are explained before participation, along with the limits of confidentiality.

What if my concern is bullying or harassment?

You deserve appropriate support with what is happening. Coaching is separate from reporting, safeguarding, employment advice and investigations. It must not be used to ask you to tolerate mistreatment.

Can I come after the season has ended?

Yes, you can enquire about the transition after a season, a change in role or leaving the industry. Availability and suitability are discussed before any service is agreed.
