Science backed
Everything is grounded in psychology, human performance and leadership science.

Right now, you're exhausted...
From the outside it looks like you’ve made it. A successful career, the dream home, family holidays and the freedom to buy what you want.
It should feel like a success story.
But truthfully, you’re stuck in survival mode.
You’ve been everything to everyone for so long. Spinning so many plates that slowing down and taking time out for you feels impossible and maybe even selfish.
You’ve climbed the ladder but it feels like your serving system that was never built with you in mind. A system where the rules of game were made for men to rise.
So, you hold back. You play it safe. You constantly apologise for your opinions.
You try to walk the tightrope. Not too demanding, not too direct, not too much. Meanwhile the men around you get praised for the very behaviours you’re told to tone down.
You want the seat at the table, the promotion to the c-suite or to partner. You want the rewards. But you also want to be a great mum, a present partner and good friend.
You want it all. But the path to success on your terms isn’t clear. And the more you push the further you fall into overwhelm.
You've tried everything they said would work and you're still stuck...
The books, podcasts, conferences and the leadership courses.
You’ve tried speaking up and staying quiet. Twisting yourself in knots trying to be someone else, to get the praise, the promotion, the seat at the table, your work in its own right should have earned you.
You keep telling yourself: “If I take on one more project and they’ll finally see I’ve got what it takes.” “Just one more late-night call.” “One more meeting squeezed in.”
But all those spinning plates? They’re draining you. By the end of the day, there’s nothing left. Not for your family, and definitely not for yourself.
And the hardest part is that you feel ashamed to admit you don’t have it all together.
You’re the classic Type-A achiever. Always pushing. Always striving. But lately, it’s tying you in knots.
It’s time for a change:
You don’t need the stock-standard executive coach HR pairs you with.
And you’re not broken, so seeing a psychologist doesn’t quite fit either.
What you do need is someone who sees the whole picture. Someone who can help you work on you and your career.
You’ve wasted years waiting to believe in yourself. Afraid to use your voice. Afraid to ask for what you really want.
It’s time to stop apologising and take your career and your life into your own hands.
Let's ChatYou're not alone.
Did you know 72% of women have experienced burnout in the past year?
Not because you’re weak. But because the load is heavy and it’s invisible to most people around you.
Let’s talk facts:
Women still carry 50% more housework across the average working week
We’re expected to perform at work while managing early parenthood, aging parents and the hormonal chaos of peri/menopause.
The mental load? Always on. The expectations? Relentless - both from the world and from within.
It’s no wonder high-achieving women are exhausted.
And the worst part? Most are struggling in silence.
But it doesn't have to be that way.
The world best have coaches for a reason.
Elite athletes. CEOs. Entrepreneurial Trailblazers.
They don’t do it alone and neither should you.
The right coach can help you build the career you want and a personal life that energises you.
And the research backs it up with coaching delivering an average return on investment of nearly six times the cost.
91% of participants report that they have an increased readiness for a new role with coaching.
With 84% agreeing that having a coach increased their leadership effectiveness.
Coaching also helps you grow personally. Research shows it increases self-confidence by 80%, improves work performance by 70%, and 96% of people who try it say they’d do it again.
If you want a career that fulfils you and a life that energises you coaching isn’t a luxury. It’s the vehicle for you to rise strong.
Flow Coaching for Women who Lead
Grow Boldly. Live Bravely. Lead With Flow.
Flow Coaching is for ambitious women in leadership roles who want to perform at their best without sacrificing their well-being or personal life in the process.
It’s evidence-based. It gets real results. And it’s designed to meet you - the whole you.
Grounded in evidence
Backed by 50+ years of research in human performance, psychology, and flow science. It goes beyond surface-level hacks or vague inspiration. Just practical, proven methods to help you lead with clarity and perform at your best.
Proven to deliver results
A framework that has propelled athletes to world championships, surgeons to stay sharp through 20-hour operations, chess players to reach grandmaster level, and speakers to take the stage with grounded presence. It’s high performance without falling into ego driven hustle and with your energy and well-being front and centre.
Meets the whole of you
You’re not just a female leader. You’re a human with relationships and a life outside of work that matters just as much. The truth is, performance doesn’t happen in a vacuum. When things feel off at work, it shows up at home. When you are stretched too thin personally, your career takes a hit. Flow Coaching meets you where you are. Some sessions are laser focused on what’s happening at work. Others are about building boundaries, making space for your family, or finding a better rhythm to your week. It is all part of helping you show up at your best, on your terms.
Flow Coaching Method
Flow Coaching combines human performance, psychology and flow into a structured method that works from the inside out.

It’s not a cookie-cutter process, it’s tailored to you. Every journey is grounded in an evidence backed framework that gets results. This methodology is what transforms Flow Coaching from “nice conversations” into real, lasting results. Science-backed change tailored to the whole of you.
In a 10-year McKinsey study, executives report being up to five times more productive when in a flow state.
The University of Sydney study showed a 430-fold increase in creative problem-solving.
The United States Air Force found a 50% improvement in learning and skill acquisition when in flow.
This is science-backed high performance applied to the real-world demands of growing a business.

Meet Alex Bakowski, not just another coach
Hi, I'm Alex
A human performance expert and certified Flow Coach.
I've got over 20 years’ experience in the business arena. A career highlight? Leading a team across five continents at once and being told it was so good, they didn’t want to go back to the real world.
I hold credentials that count. I'm an Associate Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation, a Certified Flow Coach with the Flow Centre, and I hold postgraduate qualifications in psychology. Even after all those years of study, I still find joy in a human performance textbook and coffee in bed on a Sunday morning.
But I didn’t get here the traditional way. Growing up, I was told I wasn’t good enough and for a long time, I believed it. I left a tumultuous home life at a young age and started my career as a wide-eyed and eager receptionist. Somehow, I climbed the corporate ladder and became a global senior executive at one of the biggest companies in the world.
In my 20s, a few serendipitous moments (and a few solid kicks from the universe) made me realise that a life of endless summers in Ibiza was not a life plan. That’s when I discovered the power of the inner game. I did all the personal development things including meeting Deepak Chopra and walking barefoot across hot coals with Tony Robbins (Cringe!)
These days, I bring the head and the heart together into action as I coach professional women to find clarity, confidence, and flow to achieve in life on their terms. It’s not called the Alex Effect for nothing.

Not all coaches are created equal
There’s a lot of choice when it comes to coaches and that comes with uncertainty.
- Who is legitimate?
- Who to trust?
- How do I choose?
- Will they deliver on their promises?
I have legitimate coaching qualifications, use an evidence-based approach, and have coached high-performance individuals for over ten years.
I do not make grandiose promises just to take your money (certified coaches like me follow a code of ethics.)
The best way to get a feel for whether we are a good fit is to book a complimentary call with me.

Case Study
Suzanne – Leader in the Mining Industry
When Suzanne reached out, work felt emotionally draining. In a high-pressure, male-dominated environment, she found herself constantly reactive, often overwhelmed by meetings, team dynamics, and inner self-talk. She knew something had to change.
Over six months of one-on-one coaching with Alex, Suzanne developed new tools to manage emotional responses, build inner calm, and enhance her confidence. The sessions were both reflective and practical, creating space to shift deeply held patterns.
Now, Suzanne leads with clarity and calm. She feels more grounded, less reactive, and able to speak up with confidence.
"The person I was when I started with you, reactive, tense, always second guessing feels like a different version of me. I’m calm now. I feel clear. You didn’t just give me theories. You gave me real tools and the space to be fully myself, and that changed everything."
