Creative & Regenerative Leadership Coaching

Transform Through Self-Awareness & Regeneration

At La Route Coaching, we believe the journey to regenerative leadership begins within.
By helping leaders understand, accept, and love themselves, we empower them to create ecosystems where people and the planet thrive together.

I’m Fenia, Business Psychologist, Psychometrician, and founder of La Route Coaching.

I help unconventional leaders slow down, soften up, and lead from within. My work blends psychology, creativity, and soul, because real leadership isn’t about performance.

It’s about presence.

I create spaces for deep self-awareness, creative disruption, and regenerative change. Now growing the Creative Leadership Community and partnering with humans (and orgs) who want to lead differently.

Raise the bar. Bare minimum ≠ care.

This isn’t radical. It’s basic humanity.

Don’t lose your humanity in the name of “performance”.

That comment got me thinking and questioning even more.

In less than a year with this company, I introduced my favourite La Route Coaching project “The Creative Leadership Programme”. The feedback has been fantastic and the people who took part were super energised by the power of connecting with their authentic selves. 💥

But this post isn’t really about the programme.
It’s about that word luxury.

Is it a luxury to share my skills and passion to help people?
Is it a luxury to recognise my value and use it to bring change?
Is it a luxury to be self-aware enough and believe in myself to a point of delusion to ask for the opportunities I want?
Or is the real luxury having a manager who does what every leader should: trust, empower and create space for growth?

Why does the myth persist that corporate life can’t handle authenticity?

So many questions, so little time.
Curious to know your answers, if you have any!✨

Not every leader looks like a “leader.”
Some of us were never the loudest in the room or the most popular.
But we saw the cracks. Felt the tension. Asked better questions.
This one’s for the ones who never quite fit into boxes, and always knew they were here to shape something better.

We need more unconventional leaders. Especially now.

Which one felt like it was written for you?

Leaving back my routine for sunsets and temples in Thailand taught me this: Your environment reshapes your perspective, whether you realise it or not. Remote work isn’t always glamorous (Wi-Fi hunting, anyone? 😅), but when your work fuels your adventures? That’s where the magic happens. 🌏

Ready to design a life that aligns with your values?

🇹🇭 Thailand taught me that self-awareness grows in the spaces beyond comfort. Stepping away from my routine, I found clarity in my fears, strengths, and the stories I tell myself. Leadership starts within. What has travel taught you? Share in the comments! 🌍👇

P.S. Swipe to see the moment I traded spreadsheets for feeding an elephant. 🐘🌅 Spoiler: It was pure magic! ➡️

To everyone who takes the risk and leaves their comfort zone to follow their dreams, you are braver than you know. 🥂

October Recap

This journey is mine.
No one can save me. I can only save myself.

And I get my ego hurt, sometimes.
Because self-awareness means accepting all parts of myself, even when pride takes a hit.

But during this journey, I meet people who can read my eyes.
Because connection runs deeper than words. In leadership, tuning in, both to others and to ourselves, creates meaningful change.

I learn to open up and protect my personal space at the same time.
Growth requires space. Balancing trust and independence is where leaders thrive.

I find myself in between freedom and reality.
Unconventional leadership means embracing the freedom to explore while staying grounded in who you are.

Personally, I am consistent in inconsistency.
I embrace myself through constant change. Because living authentically is the point.

Because only by fully knowing and accepting ourselves, we can lead others.

Take the next step even if you’re scared! Do it anyway! ❤️‍🔥

True leadership is defined by vulnerability.

This is what sets us apart.

Embracing vulnerability can create stronger, more resilient teams and foster deeper connections.

Lead with vulnerability, it is our greatest strength. ❤️‍🔥

A slow morning with a non-negotiable routine, like savoring the first sip of coffee, sets the tone for a productive and calm day. Taking time for myself before the day’s chaos begins is crucial for my mental clarity and overall well-being. Leaders who prioritise self-care can lead with more focus and resilience.🤍

Do you have a non-negotiable routine?

💫 Another trip around the sun just finished, and a new one is starting up!

Happy birthday to me! 🎂

The self-development journey is never-ending, and I’m glad to finally say that I’ve reached a point in my life where stress and anxiety have transformed into flow!

The last few years, as many of you know, have been the most difficult. One urgent health issue was the catalyst that changed my perspective on life.

Two years later, I’m living the most exciting time of my life! Cheers to all of you who live it with me! I’m grateful and love you forever! ❤️‍🔥

To those who I may have overwhelmed with my enthusiasm, I wish you peace and joy in your own journey. 😉

See you on the other side! 🦋

💡 What will you choose: follower or leader?

Growing up, I always admired leaders—their charisma, their confidence, their ability to inspire.

I started my career as an eager follower, with a passion for new knowledge from my mentors and leaders around me.

With each lesson learned, I gained a deeper sense of self-awareness. I realised that true leadership isn’t just about giving orders; it’s about understanding yourself and others, empathising with their struggles, and inspiring them to reach new heights.

Join me and embrace the power of self-awareness, learn from those who inspire you, and take the next step to go beyond leadership!

At The Watercooler & The Office 2024 huge event yesterday, I had a fantastic time learning about the future of organisational culture through a series of engaging workshops and insightful discussions.

Exploring key themes such as AI, sustainability, flexibility, inclusion, wellbeing, and purpose, I gained valuable perspectives for the workplace dynamics.

From the integration of AI in HR and wellbeing initiatives to the challenge of “wellbeing washing,” where companies may superficially promote wellbeing without addressing underlying cultural issues, the event provided a holistic view of the complexities and opportunities in shaping a positive workplace culture.

With workshops focusing on aligning HR with commercial strategy, leveraging AI for employee value proposition, and fostering lasting habit change, I left with a deeper understanding of the critical role leadership plays in driving authentic cultural transformation.

Overall, the event was an opportunity for reflection, learning, and networking, leaving me inspired and equipped for the future of organisational culture with purpose and resilience.
