We are proud to share the launch of Julia’s book, You Are Not As Self-Aware As You Think You Are, which took place on 21 October 2025. The book grew from Julia’s PhD research into self awareness and the development of executive coaches, and brings together her academic work, her years of experience with leaders and teams, and her own personal journey. It offers clear explanations, practical guidance and reflective exercises to help readers understand themselves more deeply and lead with greater authenticity and confidence.

At the launch event, Julia spoke about how the book came to life, the meaning behind the cover, and the people who supported her throughout the writing process. Hearing her describe the surprises, connections and personal stories behind the project was a special moment for all of us. We invite you to watch the video below to hear Julia tell the story in her own words.
