About In Charge

Welcome, I'm Hanan.

Life and Self Discovery Coach. EMCC Senior Practitioner Level Coach.

I help capable people come back to themselves.

The kind of people who are smart, responsible, and care about building a meaningful life - but quietly feel disconnected inside.

The best of us, at different points in our lives, can spend too much time in our heads. Living on autopilot. Constantly managing, achieving, and pushing forward… with no space to pause and ask what we actually want.

And without reflection, it’s easy to lose your direction.
Your confidence.
Your sense of meaning.
Your spark.

I support people at inflection points - burnout recovery, career changes, identity shifts - and the smaller quieter ones too: you just know there's more clarity, purpose, and aliveness available to you than what you're currently experiencing.
‍
My mission is to help you reconnect to your spark and energy, and come home to yourself again and again.

Not as an end goal. As a way of life that we have to keep practicing :)

My story (and why this work matters)

In 2018, I experienced a severe burnout for the first (and hopefully last) time in my life.

And weirdly, what broke me the most wasn’t just how bad it was - it was the fact it happened to me. I was driven. Self-aware. Thoughtful. I cared about my life choices. I wasn’t reckless or unaware.
So how did I end up here?

I needed to understand. Getting back on my feet took the next couple of years, and in that time I ended up going on a full self-discovery journey - not just to recover, but to make sure I’d never end up in that place again.

I spent a lot of time (and honestly, a lot of money) learning about purpose, psychology, neuroscience, wellbeing, and career development. I worked with psychologists, therapists, and coaches.

A lot happened (and if you’re interested, I’m always very happy to chat!). But the most important thing I realised was this:

1) The most powerful tools are hidden behind therapy & executive coaching doors and complex theories

As if they’re only for people who are depressed or broken. When actually, they’re tools we all deserve access to - especially capable people who want to live up to their potential and master their mind, sense of self, direction, and definition of success.

2) The wellbeing space is very fragmented

I had to see multiple professionals and read 100s of books just to piece together what was really going on.

And underneath everything, the real question wasn’t: “how do I stop feeling burnt out?”
‍
It was: "How do I discover who I am, build deep confidence, and create a life and career that feels energising and actually feels like me? "

‍Through my own stubborn need to figure it out, I started bringing together everything I’d learned and tested into an approach - something that actually works, and works quickly.

I shared it with a few “test clients”… and the results were powerful. That’s the work I do now.

My coaching blends deep identity and mindset work (we go into patterns, history, and what’s shaped you) with practical tools that help you move forward fast - so you don’t just understand yourself… you uplevel your identity forever. This isn't a promise I take lightly but I don't do surface-level work. I work with people who are ready to prioritise real transformation and growth in their lives.

You helped me deal with so many things that I didn’t even realise were large issues for me. You’ve helped me improve my confidence, you helped me to identify where my negative thoughts originated from. Since then I haven’t had any prolonged periods of anxiety or depression. That’s something I genuinely haven’t been able to say in 7 years. I’m so grateful to you for helping me to realise it doesn’t need to be that way and for giving me the tools to deal with situations in a healthy manner.

I can't thank Hanan enough for the impact she has had on my life! Hanan was very compassionate and attentive and provided me with tools which are backed up with science, which helped me better understand my core values and set goals which are aligned with who I am and gave me clarity and a sense of direction. My self talk really improved and I am kinder to myself. Hanan really is better than any therapist I worked with! Her approach is very personal. I have benefitted in all areas of my life! I am very grateful to Hanan and would definitely recommend her to anyone!

What is In Charge?

In Charge was created to tackle a challenge many high performers face: the pursuit of success that often comes at the cost of energy, wellbeing, and a sense of self.

Burnout and disengagement rarely happen because people are doing too much. They happen because we’re working in ways that conflict with who we are - operating from unhelpful mindset patterns, ignoring signals about our natural rhythm, or not using our strengths intentionally.

In Charge introduces a new approach: energy-intelligent self-leadership. It’s about helping you understand how to lead yourself, your energy, and your direction - with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

It’s for people who want to stop simply “coping” and start living in alignment with who they truly are, creating work and life that energises them instead of draining them.
