Based in Berkshire
A Different Kind of Burnout Support
FemExec Wellness is a specialist burnout recovery practice based in Maidenhead, Berkshire. Founded by Shena Lee-Anthony, a Chartered Rehabilitation Physiotherapist and Certified Health and Wellbeing Coach, it brings nearly 20 years of clinical rehabilitation experience to the field of executive health recovery.
Burnout is not simply tiredness. It is a physiological state that affects the nervous system, hormonal balance, cognitive function and long-term health. For high-performing women and leaders, the demands of sustained performance can accelerate this process in ways that are rarely acknowledged or adequately addressed.
The approach at FemExec Wellness is grounded in clinical science, not generic wellness advice. It combines the rigour of rehabilitation medicine with the depth of personalised health coaching, addressing the root causes of burnout rather than managing its surface symptoms.
Why FemExec Wellness

Burnout affects the body as much as the mind. Programmes address physiology, nervous system regulation, energy and sustainable performance together.
Evidence-Informed Coaching
Every programme is grounded in clinical rehabilitation science and health coaching methodology, personalised to your specific presentation and goals.
Who this is for
Do You Recognise This?
Burnout rarely announces itself clearly. It builds gradually, until the signs become impossible to ignore. These are the patterns most commonly described by clients before they reach out.
Exhaustion that sleep does not resolve
You wake tired. Rest no longer restores you. Your body is running on reserves it no longer has.
Detachment from work you once loved
The drive that defined you has quietly disappeared. You go through the motions, but the meaning has gone.
Physical symptoms without clear cause
Recurring headaches, digestive issues, frequent illness. Your body is communicating what your schedule will not allow you to acknowledge.
Cognitive fog and reduced capacity
Decision-making feels harder. Concentration is elusive. You are functioning, but not at the level you know is possible.
Emotional flatness or quiet dread
Not dramatic breakdown, but a persistent low-level anxiety or numbness that has become your baseline.
The sense that something is fundamentally wrong
You cannot name it precisely, but you know. This is not who you are, and this is not sustainable.
I had experienced burnout and lost my passion for my business and life. After working with Shena, I feel like a new me, and excited by life again.

Flexible support
Why Virtual Coaching Works
Many clients are surprised to find that virtual sessions are not simply a convenient alternative. For those in burnout recovery, they can be the more effective choice.
No travel required
Sessions take place wherever you are. For clients in the early stages of recovery, removing logistical pressure is itself therapeutic.
Privacy and comfort
Working from your own space supports the openness that recovery requires. Many clients find this preferable to a clinical setting.
Consistent scheduling
Virtual sessions integrate more naturally into a demanding diary, making it easier to maintain the regularity that recovery depends on.
Identical clinical quality
The therapeutic relationship, the clinical framework and the depth of support are not diminished by working online.
Shena helped me understand what was happening in my body and gave me a clear path back to myself. I finally feel like I have my life back.
