The Latin adage means "a healthy mind in a healthy body".
Embarking on a transformative journey— whether its giving up addictive substances or activities, choosing an active life over a sedentary one, or beginning a weight loss journey such as GLP-1 ( Glucagon-like peptide-1) medications - Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, bariatric surgery, or lifestyle modifications—extends far beyond physical changes.
Engaging in consistent, health-promoting behaviours can lead to neuroplastic changes in the brain, reinforcing new habits and decision-making patterns. This process not only aids in sustaining physical well being but also enhances overall self-regulation and resilience. The establishment of disciplined routines in one part of life can translate into improved management of other life domains, fostering a sense of overall control and accomplishment.
As individuals adopt healthier lifestyles, their social interactions and habits often evolve. While some relationships may flourish under shared health pursuits, others may face challenges if loved ones or colleagues are unsupportive or feel alienated by the individual's new lifestyle choices.

As individuals adopt healthier lifestyles, their social interactions and habits often evolve. While some relationships may flourish under shared health pursuits, others may face challenges if loved ones or colleagues are unsupportive or feel alienated by the individual's new lifestyle choices. The boost in self-confidence and energy levels accompanying transformation can positively impact our wellness but these changes might also necessitate renegotiating professional relationships and navigating new personal dynamics.

Hello! I am Michelle de Havilland, an experienced executive coach and real estate veteran. I have 30 years of corporate experience in global property development, asset investments & management and I am currently Chair & CEO of BlackGate.
When I started my career in real estate investment and capital markets, I lived for the deal, the deadlines, the dynamism. I’ve stood at the top of skyscrapers, helped raise billions, and sat in boardrooms with the sharpest minds. But in the quiet moments between the meetings, I realised something more subtle was driving people: the pressure to perform, to provide, to prove.
Behind every high-performer, there’s a personal story. And too often, that story includes burnout, self-doubt, and loneliness in leadership.
That’s why I started MD Coach — to offer something more than strategy sessions or goal-setting exercises. This is coaching for the whole human — commercial clarity, psychological resilience, and deeply personal growth.
The MD Method is a fusion of boardroom intelligence and therapeutic insight. It’s grounded in psychology, lived experience, and commercial excellence. It’s for people who don’t just want to tick boxes — they want to transform.
I’ve coached founders navigating IPOs, CEOs in crisis, high-achievers trying to remember who they are beyond the title. What I’ve learned is simple:
When you support the human, you unlock the leader.
I know that Coaching can often seem like a daunting prospect, but really it is the beginning of an exciting new chapter in your life where you can explore the full capabilities and opportunities that life has to offer. Done right, it is utterly exhilarating and life-affirming; an opportunity to super-charge your life experience.
I studied Psychology & Mass Communications at University, as well as completed my post graduate Certification in Business Administration. I am a certified American Fitness Professional and a Certification in Coaching from Cambridge University. I am also currently working towards my post graduate MSc - also at Cambridge University.
Over the last few years as both a Transformational & Executive Coach, I have developed personalised programmes that cater to the unique needs of my clients. My approach is empathetic, goal-oriented and fun. I believe in empowering my clients to gain self-awareness, confidence, and the skills needed to overcome any obstacles that come their way. A sense of humour goes a long way, as does setting realistic goals and being accountable for our actions. Together, we will work towards creating a life you love. Where you thrive. Where you are inspired. Where you build empires and create a legacy!

" It is hard wired in to our DNA to be part of a community, to evolve and to contribute in a meaningful way- whether personally, professionally, morally, philosophically or even aesthetically,

Our unique approach to coaching is called "co-active coaching." Co-active coaching is a client-centred approach that views the coach and the client as equal partners in the coaching relationship. This approach recognises that the client is the expert on their own life and leadership journey, and the coach's role is to help them unlock their own potential and find their own solutions.
In co-active coaching, the coach and the client work collaboratively to set goals and identify areas for growth and development. The coach uses active listening and powerful questioning techniques to help the client gain clarity and insight into their own thoughts, feelings, and motivations. The coach also provides support, accountability, and encouragement as the client works towards achieving their goals.
One of the unique aspects of co-active coaching is the emphasis on the client's whole life, not just their professional life. Co-active coaches recognise that a person's personal life can impact their professional life, and vice versa. Therefore, they take a holistic approach to coaching, helping the client integrate all aspects of their life and leadership journey.
Another unique aspect of co-active coaching is the emphasis on the present moment. Co-active coaches focus on what is happening in the client's life right now, and help them create a vision for their future based on their current reality. This approach helps clients stay grounded in the present moment, while also working towards their future goals.
Overall, co-active coaching offers a unique and powerful approach to leadership coaching that focuses on the client's whole life and emphasises the present moment. This approach can help leaders unlock their full potential and achieve their goals in a way that feels authentic and aligned with their values and purpose.
The MD Coach philosophy revolves around holistic development, focusing on empowering individuals to overcome obstacles, embrace change, and steer their lives towards fulfilment and success in:

Coaching centers on future goals, fostering skills and accountability for personal and professional growth. It emphasizes goal-setting, skill-building, and action plans to propel individuals toward desired outcomes. Therapy focuses on past and present emotions, addressing mental health issues and unresolved traumas. Therapists aid healing, self-discovery, and emotional well-being through exploring thoughts and behaviors. Coaching aims at goal attainment and performance enhancement, while therapy centers on emotional healing and mental health improvement. Both provide guidance, but coaching targets achievement, while therapy focuses on emotional wellness and mental health concerns, serving distinct yet complementary roles in personal development.
Coaching is as a collaborative process between a coach and an individual seeking guidance and growth. It involves setting clear objectives, identifying strengths, and developing action plans. Through active listening and powerful questioning, coaches help individuals gain clarity, overcome obstacles, and leverage their potential. The process encourages self-discovery, fosters accountability, and empowers clients to take decisive steps toward their goals. Coaches provide support, encouragement, and tools tailored to the individual's needs, enabling them to unlock their full potential and achieve desired outcomes.
100%! What happens in our sessions stays in our sessions, just like seeing a therapist.
The time that your coaching process will take depends on the complexity of your goals and your commitment and openness to your process.
Coaching sessions are priced at GBP250/ USD320 per session for the initial commitment of 6 sessions, providing comprehensive support and guidance.

The outcomes of coaching sessions can vary based on individual goals and commitment.

Expect increased accountability, motivation, and a clearer path to achieving personal or professional objectives. Improved decision-making skills, enhanced self-confidence, and a greater sense of direction are common outcomes. Coaching aims to unlock your potential, enabling you to explore new perspectives, leverage strengths, and cultivate a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life, fostering tangible progress toward your desired outcomes.
Anyone seeking personal or professional growth, facing transitions, or aiming to achieve specific goals can benefit from coaching. Individuals navigating career changes, seeking clarity in life direction, aiming for self-improvement, or desiring enhanced performance can benefit. Executives, entrepreneurs, students, or anyone feeling stuck, seeking accountability, or wanting to maximise their potential find value in coaching. Those aiming for clearer goal-setting, improved relationships, work-life balance, or coping with life changes can also benefit. Essentially, anyone open to self-discovery, motivated to make positive changes, and willing to invest in their personal or professional development should consider working with a coach.
