Frequently Asked Questions

Four steps: 1) Assess: an at-home DNA test, a digital psychometric assessment and a short pre-coaching questionnaire about your career, ambitions and life outside work. 2) Your Performance Profile: the personal report bringing your genetic and psychological results together, including your Resilience Balance Sheet™ profile, delivered digitally and as a printed copy. 3) Coaching with Dannielle: a 90-minute one-to-one session to interpret your Performance Profile and turn it into a practical plan. 4) Immersion (optional): six further one-hour coaching sessions and ongoing accountability. The Performance Profile package is £3,000 + VAT, with postage included. Immersion is £7,500 + VAT and includes everything in The Performance Profile package plus the further sessions and accountability. You can view a sample excerpt of the Performance Profile.

A test kit is posted to you. The sample is a quick, pain-free at-home blood test that takes around ten minutes to complete. You return it in the packaging provided, and it is analysed by our partner genetics laboratory.

The DNA test kit must be completed and returned within four weeks of dispatch, and the psychometric and coaching session within three months. Most of that time is simply waiting for laboratory analysis; your own time commitment is around ten minutes for the blood test, twelve to fifteen minutes for the digital psychometric assessment, a short pre-coaching questionnaire about your career, ambitions and life outside work, and the 90-minute one-to-one coaching session with Dannielle to explore your Performance Profile. Immersion is optional and adds six further one-hour coaching sessions and ongoing accountability.

Yes, and we treat this with the seriousness it deserves. Genetic information is special category data under UK data protection law, and we only process it with your explicit written consent. Your results are shared only between the laboratory, Dannielle and you, and all programme data, including your genetic and psychometric results, is deleted three months after your programme concludes. Full details are in our privacy policy.

No, and be wary of anything that claims it could. The test identifies genetic predispositions in the pathways linked to stress response and recovery. It is not a medical diagnosis and it doesn't score your leadership. Its value is as a starting point: an objective baseline that the psychometric and coaching then build on.

Senior leaders and executives operating under sustained pressure: founders, C-suite, partners, and those stepping up into bigger roles. It's equally relevant if you're performing well and want to protect that, or if you suspect you're running on empty and want to understand why.

Coaching sessions are held over video call, at a time that suits you.

Yes. The programme runs per participant, and many organisations enrol several leaders at once, often alongside wider leadership development, training programmes or away-days. Contact us to discuss team arrangements.

You keep your Performance Profile and action plan. You can choose Immersion, the optional second package, which includes six further one-hour coaching sessions and ongoing accountability. Many clients choose to continue with further coaching sessions or training for themselves and their teams, but there's no obligation to.

Each component has its own deadline, and these are set because the laboratory and psychometric access are commissioned when you enrol. The DNA test kit must be completed and returned to the laboratory within four weeks of dispatch. The psychometric must be completed within three months of access being issued. The coaching session must be booked within three months of your Performance Profile being received. If a component is not completed within its window it is forfeited, the full fee remains payable, and no refund is issued unless agreed in writing in advance. In practice this is rarely an issue, as the tests take under half an hour of your time combined.
