Sustainable Productivity Starts with Wellbeing

When you’re focused on career growth and impact, it’s easy to push your own needs aside. But this is the fastest route to burnout. The good news? It doesn’t have to be this way.

Each weekend, I share practical strategies, short essays, doodles, and recommendations to help you live and work in a way that supports your wellbeing.

Subscribe to my free newsletter to stop choosing between productivity and wellbeing—you can have both.

To do well, you need to be well.

Wellbeing amplifies performance.

Hi, I’m Martine. I help people achieve more by putting wellbeing first and practising sustainable productivity. I work with individuals and businesses as a coach, trainer, and facilitator. You’ll also find me writing, podcasting, and doodling about working and living well.

Why work with me? Most productivity advice asks people to push harder. My approach is different. I help individuals and teams pause, reflect, and find a way of working that supports wellbeing and performance.

  • I was genuinely impressed by Martine's facilitation of her Handling Difficult Conversations course. She was engaging and emotionally intelligent, skilfully reading the energy in the room and supporting participants accordingly. The content was clearly well-researched and thoughtfully adapted to suit a very varied audience, which made it all the more impactful. I particularly appreciated how Martine treated me as a peer, creating a space where curiosity was welcomed and encouraged. I would thoroughly recommend her as a trainer and look forward to sending more of my colleagues on her courses.

  • The Society for Education and Training (SET) has worked regularly with Martine over many years, tapping into her expertise to deliver a variety of very well-received professional development webinars for our members. Topics have ranged from advice for educators new to a career in FE and skills, managing workload with her wellbeing-driven productivity method, and understanding stress and burnout from an education perspective. Martine is always well-prepared for the webinars, brings an interesting and fresh approach and can engage and connect with her audience. Feedback is always positive; delegates relate to Martine and enjoy her presentation and facilitation style.

  • Martine helped me find definition during a very chaotic time. Through her brilliant coaching, I have been able to set and then achieve goals with my work that I had felt stuck and frustrated with. Our coaching sessions even helped me balance everyday life issues. Martine creates a very easy and personable space and is engaging and insightful. I fully recommend her coaching.
